We are still waking up to the amazing fact that we have a beautiful farm! Thanks for all you did making arrangements and helping us buy our dream land. We love the farm and smile from ear to ear every weekend we are there. It is so beautiful and the neighbors are so nice. Our family acts like a bunch of Davy Crocketts exploring the land, woods and conservation area. City fold going on adventure! Again, Thank You!

Phil Brown and Michael Wardlaw recently assisted our family in the sale of a farm in Warren County, Missouri. We could not have had a better experience with them, their company, or the transaction. From the intial phone call, to closing and beyond, they have been nothing but professional, timely, and knowledgeable. Having been involved in real estate for several years, we’re aware of the hard work that goes into a transaction going smoothly and commend the entire Trophy Properties team for delivering great results. Our family can only hope to buy another farm in the years to come and work with Phil, Michael and the team again!

Phil truly has an eye for spotting spectacular farms. He offered his advice without any pressure. He has a great professionalism and is honest with both the buyer and the seller- traits that are very much appreciated.

Michael M., Missouri Land Owner

Thank you for your help in selling our country place. We were impressed from the beginning with the professionalism and friendliness of your company. You told us that if we price the property correctly, you would find a buyer quickly. You not only found a qualified buyer but a backup offer within the first ten days of the listing. We were impressed. We enjoyed meeting you and Sandy, and we feel we greatly benefited from your experience and advice. We will wholeheartedly recommend you and Trophy Properties to friends looking for a good realtor.

I had expressed my interest to Phil in wanting to purchase hunting ground if the right piece of property was to come along. Phil informed me of an incredible property in Northeastern Missouri. The quality of the hunting is superb and the return on investment was just what I was looking for. Phil was able to orchestrate the transaction through closing and I am more than happy with the outcome. I have no reservation in recommending Phil and his team to anyone who is looking to invest in land.
