Lance Soele has been intimately involved in ranching his whole life. He grew up around cattle in a small Texas town. Lance has been selling ranches for four years and loves both selling property and maintaining the family ranches. Lance has personally raised numerous species of African game, Whitetail deer, and cattle. He has darted and tranquilized over one thousand animals and can help you with animal selection, pen placement, food plots, feed selection, drugs, dart guns, trapping and transporting techniques, etc.

Lance is familiar with all types of ranch equipment including tractors, pumps and other mechanical elements, hay production, etc. He can also provide resources to help with land clearing, road construction, and live water projects like dams and bridges. Lance has been involved in these types of projects of since he was just a young kid, and can give you an idea of what a property can be sculpted to look like, and what your property can produce. As Lance says,“Our ranches aren’t just land, they are a lifestyle! And we have a passion for the ranch lifestyle. We enjoy what we do, and particularly enjoy helping others find that same love for ranching.”
