Property-insurance

National Land Realty has announced its merger with Mississippi Land & Lakes offering further boost for investors in industry.

The merger is just part of the South Carolina based brokerage firm’s expansion across the US. The company will merge with Mississippi Land & Lakes, a Meridian based real estate company that has decades of experience in timberland, farmland, forestry consulting and recreational land sales and management. The firm is considered one of the premier recreational design and development companies in the Southeastern United States, making it an influential partner for National Land Realty.

Cathy Haguewood, a broker for MLL, stated that the merger was a real lifeline for the business. ‘We have been looking for a new real estate partner for 18 months, and are thrilled to be joining the National Land Realty team. I haven’t seen another company with such professionalism and attention to detail, in addition to their world-class marketing program.’

The two businesses offer complimentary services, with Mississippi Land & Lakes’ unique recreational consulting services set to integrate well with National Land Realty’s industry-leading marketing and brokerage services. Jason Walter, CEO of National Land Realty said of the merger: ‘This merger continues National Land Realty’s expansion across the country, bringing more opportunities for our land sales and investment customers. Not only does the Meridian team have a wealth of real estate experience, they also offer comprehensive recreational design and development services, which includes lake and lodge development, roads and wildlife food plot layout and construction.’
