About Waldo Realty
Waldo Realty has specialized in marketing farm, ranch and recreational properties in the Midwest since 1977.
Waldo Realty is a locally-owned farm, ranch, and recreational land brokerage serving buyers and sellers across Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, and Minnesota since 1977. Based in O’Neill, Nebraska, our team specializes in agricultural real estate — from irrigated cropland and dryland farms to pasture, ranchland, and hunting property throughout the Midwest.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or looking to auction agricultural land, we handle every detail from initial valuation through closing. We also assist clients with complex 1031 exchanges and have been involved in numerous multi-million dollar transactions. We understand these deals because we live and work in these communities — this isn’t just business for us, it’s our expertise.
Patrick Chohon (Owner/Broker), Tyson Chohon (Associate Broker), Matthew Stoltenberg (Associate Broker), and Aaron J. Chohon (Salesman/Auctioneer) work as a team to handle every detail of your land transaction from initial valuation through closing. Whether you’re selling irrigated cropland, expanding your ranch operation, or looking for hunting property, we’ve handled it before.
The majority of our business comes from repeat clients and referrals within the agricultural community. That’s the reputation we’ve built over nearly five decades – landowners who trust us with their family’s most valuable asset, and buyers who know we’ll help them find the right property for their operation.
If you’re buying, selling, or looking to auction farm, ranch, or recreational land, we’d welcome the opportunity to put our experience to work for you.
