Agriculture and Rural Real Estate Appraisals

We specialize in agricultural and rural real estate appraisals across Arkansas,
Mississippi’s Delta region, and West Tennessee. With over a decade of experience and a background in agriculture, Tyler Hipp provides a comprehensive overview of the entire property — including cropland, pasture, timberland, and agricultural facilities.

Use Cases

Why would you need an appraisal?

Loans & Financing

Getting a loan, buying property, or renewing financing? Lenders require a credible appraisal before they’ll issue funds. Tyler provides credible, well-supported valuations for collateral underwriting.

Estate, Trust & Probate

Settling an estate or administering a trust? Tyler provides fair, defensible valuations of real property for attorneys, executors, and the courts.

Divided or Shared Ownership

When ownership is split among multiple heirs or partners, valuing just one person’s share takes specialized expertise. Tyler determines the value of partial ownership interests in real property.

Sales & Purchases

Buying or selling agricultural or rural property? An appraisal gives you an unbiased, third-party opinion of what the property is really worth, so you can negotiate with confidence.

Inherited Property & Step-Up in Basis

When you inherit property, its value on the date of death – not what it originally cost- generally sets your tax basis going forward. Tyler provides retrospective appraisals that develop a well-supported opinion of value as of that date, even years after the fact.

Consultation & Market Analysis

Not sure if you need a full appraisal? Tyler offers consultation and market analysis to help you understand your options before you commit.

Expertise

How are we different?

Tyler Hipp has spent over a decade in agricultural real estate. His resume includes appraising for Farm Credit, reviewing appraisals for a regional bank, and serving as a staff appraiser for the Farm Service Agency.

That background, combined with an ag business degree, means every appraisal accounts for what actually drives value on a farm — soil, timber, water, access, and highest and best use. Reports are unbiased, well-supported, and written to clearly communicate the property and the basis for the value conclusion.
