Selling and Buying Ranch Land in Alberta
Ranching in Alberta is a long-held tradition, often undertaken by families over generations, however, in recent years there has been an increase in interest from newcomers branching out into ranching. Hansen Land Brokers are your go-to to help with any transitional land sales.
Hansen Land Brokers have been in the business of selling ranch land for a great number of years and have success in selling ranch land in Alberta. So if you are looking for a foothills ranch for sale or any type of Alberta Ranch for sale, we are the brokers to use.

Why Ranch in Southern Alberta?
Ranching can be a hard yet rewarding life, you must take into account a number of considerations before embarking on your journey. One of these is finding the right land for the type of ranching you are interested in doing.
Here at Hansen Land Brokers, we will break these down into three categories.
- Cattle Grazing – Land with the highest production of grass for quality cattle grazing
- Mixed arable and pastoral – A nice blend of grazing and crop growing land. This will give you the best soil in which to grow your crops as well as a perfect patch of land to graze your cattle on successfully.
- Crop Land – this is land with soil that is perfectly suited for growing crops of all varieties.

In addition, when looking for a foothills ranch for sale, you must consider the implications the different terrain types may have on your ability to ranch. Hilly land is particularly good for raising cattle for meat and milk production but isn’t ideal for growing crops.
