History

Agri-Management Services was started by Richard Isaacson in 1990 as a farm
management and agricultural real estate appraisal firm. In 2008 Maurie and
Rosemary Cashman formed Aspen Grove Investments, Inc. to provide ownership
transition planning, business valuation and business brokerage services. In
2015, Aspen Grove became a shareholder in Agri-Management and in 2019 the two
companies merged to form Agri-Management Farm Services LLC and the merged
entity acquired Growthland Realty in Humboldt IA. In November of 2021 we
decided it was time to consolidate to one name, Growthland.

Growthland heavily focuses on agriculture businesses, amongst several other
industries. We specialize in Real Estate Services, Farm Property Management,
Appraisals, Business Valuation, Transaction Advisory and Ownership Transition.
In 2021 Growthland acquired Mid States Farm Management in Ottumwa and
Growthland continues to expand its geological footprint, operating from offices
in Marion, Humboldt and Ottumwa. Not only do our offices focus on agriculture,
but we also have a strong presence in residential real estate in Humboldt and
surrounding communities, and a strong business valuation and brokerage
business.

Many of our clients are in a transition phase of their life or business,
whether that be a rapid growth stage, transition within family, conflicts
within entities, acquiring additional assets, asset management, or selling
assets to move on in life.
