Cropland, recreational tracts, timber, and pasture across ten Central Illinois counties — Pike to Sangamon. Listed by brokers who walk the ground, run the FSA maps, and know the difference between a CRP rollover and a fresh enrollment.
Ten counties of active land inventory — cropland to recreational, with broker context on each market's soil productivity, timber, hunting pressure, and tax assessment trends.
Four reasons land buyers across the Mississippi corridor and Illinois River bottoms choose Apex over the residential firms moonlighting in land sales.
Soil types, NCCPI scores, CRP contracts, base acres, and yield history pulled from the FSA office before listings go live.
Every tract has been walked by an Apex broker — drainage, fence lines, easements, ingress, and timber stand condition documented on-site.
Drone flyovers and topographic overlays on every listing over 40 acres. See the lay before you drive an hour to walk it.
Tied into the Pike County, Brown County, and Schuyler County hunting and farming community. Some tracts move before they hit MLS.
What you'll do at each stage, what we'll do, and where the deal stands when it's finished.
Tell us what you're looking for — acreage range, use case (row crop, recreational, timber, mixed), county preference. We pull active listings + work the pocket network.
Property tour with the listing broker, plus FSA maps, soil reports, CRP/NRCS contract status, recorded easements, and timber inventory.
Offer structure with appropriate contingencies — CRP rollover, mineral rights review, surface lease assumptions, hunting lease expiration. We protect the deal you actually want.
Survey coordination, title work, FSA paperwork transfer, and any conservation contract assignment handled through to closing. Status email every Friday.
Land deals fail at the details — easements missed, CRP terms misread, surface leases ignored. Our standards exist because we've seen each one bite at closing.
Every tract over 20 acres physically walked by an Apex broker before listing. Documentation in the property file.
Base acres, CRP contracts, conservation easements, and program enrollment status confirmed at the local FSA office.
Wind turbine and utility-solar leases run heavy along the I-72 corridor and Illinois River bottoms. We pull the recorded lease, payment schedule, decommissioning bond, and setback obligations before contract — so you know exactly what transfers with the deed.
A status email every Friday through close. No chase calls, no surprises during inspections or survey.
Active land listings across all ten counties — pulled directly from the RMLS Alliance and updated daily.
The questions that come up most often before someone makes their first call — in plain English.
Yes — we pull the contract before listing and flag rollover dates, payment schedules, and assignment language for the buyer. We also work with NRCS and WRP/WRE easements, and have closed deals with both pre- and post-enrollment timing.
Standard practice is to surface the existing hunting lease in the listing, including expiration date and assignability. Buyers can usually assume or terminate at closing — we handle the lease tenant communication.
Every tract over 40 acres gets a drone flyover and topographic overlay. Smaller tracts get drone work if there's a visual story to tell — water features, timber stands, or unusual topography that ground photos can't capture.
Yes. Send us the parcel ID or address and we'll pull the FSA records, NCCPI score, base acres, and recent comparable land sales. We do this for serious buyers free of charge regardless of who has the listing.
Title work surfaces any severed mineral rights or active oil/gas leases. We confirm with the county recorder and flag any complications before the contract is signed — never at title commitment.
Cropland is priced primarily on productivity (NCCPI, cash rent comps) and follows commodity markets. Recreational is priced on use case — hunting pressure, water features, cover quality, road access. We give you both lenses.
Walked tracts, real FSA data, drone imagery, no residential-firm moonlighting. Call, email, or fill the contact form — same broker handles it.
