Land Acquisition &
Right-of-Way Services

Vanguard was founded by Jon Yoachim based on Jon’s core belief that land acquisition is about building relationships, and relationships are built with effort and honesty. This relationship-based approach has resonated with clients, employees, consultants, contractors, and landowners. The proof can be seen in Vanguard’s rapid growth. 

Vanguard’s team boasts an array of academic and professional experience including real estate brokers, attorneys, current and former professors, veterans, an appraiser, and an engineer. Our blend of professional experience and an interdisciplinary approach to land acquisition services provide our clients with invaluable insights that would not be gained elsewhere. 

Vanguard’s midwestern roots inform our beliefs about relationships, honesty, and a hard day’s work. Some may label these beliefs “old fashioned,” but when it comes to innovating and integrating cutting-edge ideas and technologies to streamline land acquisition services, we are truly a vanguard in the industry. 

When searching out the finest personnel for our clients, we utilize an advanced screening process that includes background and reference checks, along with the administration of aptitude, personality, skills, and knowledge assessments. Through this comprehensive process, we ensure that each candidate is the right fit for your project and your organization.  

When it comes to land acquisition services, Vanguard is the perfect size – large enough to provide your organization with the services it needs but not so large that your organization will ever get lost in the shuffle. At Vanguard, every client is our most important client.
