Accredited Land Consultants (ALCs) aren’t just land sales professionals; they are the most prestigious, the most experienced, and the highest performing land sales experts in their area. Achieving the ALC designation is not an easy feat. It requires successful completion of a rigorous education program and a proven track record of transaction performance. It also requires a commitment to professional growth. Being an ALC allows one to take advantage of the camaraderie of other ALCs and join the elite ranks of those who have earned the designation.
Having the ALC Designation gives brokers the knowledge they need to close deals and speak confidently with their clients. It also gives clients confidence in their broker as the most qualified expert to help them buy/sell their land.
When a land professional becomes an Accredited Land Consultant, that individual gains access to a unique group of real estate specialists who work together to build and share knowledge, develop trusted relationships, and expand business opportunities.
Michelle has an extensive background in ranching in West Texas. She grew up day-working on Texas cattle ranches and sheep country while breaking horses, breeding and training quarter horses, and cutting horses with her dad on many west Texas cattle ranches. All of her life, she ranched leased country prior to purchasing her own cattle ranch in 2000. She learned everything her dad could show her about ranching since early childhood.
Michelle is bilingual, has knowledge of the outdoors, and is experienced in many areas. She has a bachelor's degree in Spanish and Biology with a secondary teacher's certificate. In addition to ranching and teaching, Michelle had proven success in growing new companies to successful levels as well as forming her own ranching and real estate business. She has experience managing and consulting in the oil field and in the environmental business as well. Michelle went to real estate school at the advice of her father in 2009. She started her own brokerage in 2010 and became a Texas broker in 2016. Specializing in west Texas ranches, luxury homes, lake and riverfront properties, and country homes and estates in west Texas, she is a top real estate producer and manages her west Texas real estate business and office as well. With a strong work ethic and reputation for integrity, she has proven success in every business she has been involved with. She was recruited several times to repeat her success for several companies in the past. As a result, she was able to make a lifelong dream come true for herself and purchased a section of land in Irion County to be able to ranch and raise cattle on her own West Texas ranch and become a leader in Real Estate. She has always loved working and learning from her father, Mike Dolan, and in 2016, she and her father, Mike, purchased a United Country franchise and are now official partners selling Texas cattle ranches, waterfront properties, investment land, and luxury ranches as well as New Mexico cattle ranches. Michelle worked to become a broker in Texas as well as a New Mexico farm and ranch broker, so that the team could not only sell Texas ranches and homes, but they could also sell New Mexico ranches and New Mexico land. They have soared to new heights in Real Estate together, raising the bar in real estate land, waterfront, and home sales for West Texas and New Mexico. They are providing local expertise with Global marketing.
