If you’ve ever known a Texan — or happen to be one yourself — then you know just how proud Texas is of its sprawling land and scenic vistas. Unfortunately, all this beautiful rural land is under threat. In American Farmland Trust’s 2020 report, Farms Under Threat: The State of the States, they revealed a shocking finding. The United States has lost more than 11 million acres of agricultural land to development over the last 20 years, and the state most under threat is none other than Texas.

The importance of marketing is well understood in real estate. To successfully sell a property, you don’t just need a winning personality and a repertoire of connections, you need to highlight the land’s unique benefits. While this is equally true when it comes to selling small residential plots or larger properties such as ranches, ranch marketing requires a different approach.

Plats maps, also referred to as cadastral maps, date all the way back to the mid 1800s. Nearly a century after they first came about, in 1944, J.Q. Cummings founded the first-ever plat publishing company, a one man operation he named “Rockford Map Publishers.” He researched and drew the plats out of his basement, frequently traveled to courthouses to verify information, and due to the time-consuming nature of the work, was only able to produce a handful of plats each year.
