I am a Land Specialist

DAX HAYDEN

Managing Partner Hayden Outdoors Real Estate

Did you get the cows in the barn? Then why the hell are you back at the house?”

Where do you live? Windsor, Colorado

Where do you work? Our team of over 120 agents and brokers are licensed to sell in 16 states, and I personally sell in Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Oklahoma and New Mexico.

What drew you to ranch and recreational real estate? Growing up in horse and cattle business and following in Dad’s footsteps

What makes the corner of the world where you work special? The people and the land

What are the three most important tools in a ranch broker’s kit? The ability to do what you say you will, honesty and a broad knowledge base in agriculture, marketing and the great outdoors

If you could call anywhere on the planet home, where would it be? Why? Goodland, Kansas, will always be home. We love Windsor and its people, but you never f orget the place and people who helped you be who you are today.

What’s the most profound lesson you’ve learned from the land or its people? The passion for the land and how the blood, sweat and tears deepens that love of the land.

Listener or talker? Yes. . . I always try to use “two ears and one mouth.” Doesn’t always go that way though. . . .

If you had one extra hour of time per day, how would you use it? Time with family

Would you rather be without Internet for a week or your phone? Both. However, new phones allow for good and consistent communication from anywhere.

If you could give one sentence advice about how to live life, what would that be? Treat others as you would like to be treated, and put your faith in God.

Describe your perfect work day. Love interacting with landowners on their properties they love so much. Hearing about what makes a place special to them. . . and hunting and or fishing after the work is done is great too!

What is your most memorable deal to date? Closed our first two really large ranch sales in a week in 2007 with my dad. Changed our company and gave us the capital and confidence to grow to where we are today.
