Our Story

About Us

In 1976, the Veldman family left Rhodesia with little more than what they could carry and a way of life they refused to give up: agriculture. Originally from Holland — Dutch farmers going back generations — they crossed half the world and put their roots down in the black dirt outside Emhouse, Texas. Population: small. Handshakes: binding.

Fifty years later, we're still here. Veldman Land & Cattle is family owned and operated by Roy, Obe, Nick, and Peyton Veldman. We buy land. We sell land. We raise cattle. And we spend every day dialing in each and every aspect of the business — from the fence line to the closing table.

We're not a franchise and we don't answer to a corporate office. When you call, a Veldman picks up. When we tell you what a piece of dirt is worth, it's because we've worked dirt just like it for half a century. That's the difference between an agent who sells land and a family that lives on it.

What We Do

Services

Buying Land

We're active buyers. If you've got land to sell between Corsicana and Dallas, we'll give you a straight number and a fast, clean close — no games, no waiting on a lender.

Selling Land

Fifty years of knowing what North Texas dirt is worth. We price it right, present it right, and get it sold — pasture, farms, homesites, and ranches.

Cattle

We run cattle ourselves, every day. Grazing leases, stocker guidance, and honest advice on what a place will actually carry.

Land Improvement

Roads, ponds, clearing, fencing, and pasture work. We dial in a property the same way we dial in our own — so it's worth more when we're done.

Straight-Talk Financing

Lending

Banks can make buying land harder than it needs to be. We keep it simple. On select tracts we offer owner financing with plain terms you can read in one sitting — a fair down payment, a fair rate, and no fine-print surprises.

Not every property qualifies and every deal is different, so the conversation starts with a phone call. If owner financing isn't the right fit, we'll point you toward the farm-credit folks we've trusted for decades.

  • Owner financing available on select tracts
  • Simple, plain-English terms
  • Fast answers — usually same day
  • Local decisions, made by the family, not a committee
