Expert Tips and FAQs from Trevor Aslin, REALTREE LANDPRO

When it comes to buying or selling property in East Texas and Southwest Arkansas, clear communication and local knowledge make all the difference. Whether you’re searching for the perfect hunting tract, rural homesite, or country getaway, these simple tips can help you make the most of your real estate experience.


🏡 Tips for Buyers and Sellers

1. Be Descriptive

Buyers: Be as specific as possible about what you’re looking for. The more detail you provide—whether it’s acreage size, timber type, water features, or proximity to town—the better I can tailor your property search. This helps us focus only on listings that truly fit your needs.

Sellers: The same goes for you! You know your property better than anyone else. What makes it unique? What do you love about it? Share the details that make it stand out—special views, history, improvements, or hidden gems that buyers will appreciate.


2. Highlight the Best Photos

If you own hunting land, save your best game camera photos. Quality images of deer, turkey, or hogs are a powerful selling point and instantly catch a buyer’s eye.

Also, share your favorite property photos—maybe you captured the land when the foliage was greenest, a pond full, or the pasture freshly cut. Seasonal photos help buyers see the property’s full potential.


3. Ask Questions

Never hesitate to ask questions! These conversations help me understand what matters most to you—whether it’s investment potential, recreational use, or building plans. The more I know about your goals, the better I can guide you toward the right property or marketing strategy.
