How the Leasing Process Works

To list your property, simply contact one of our property managers. We will discuss the leasing program with you over the phone and send you a landowner enrollment form. You will need to know the legal description of the property, total acres to be leased and approximately how many acres are timber, pasture, tillable, etc.

You will be able to set the terms of the lease, rules on access, as well as the minimum acceptable bid. Once your property is listed on our website, sportsmen can review the property and submit a bid. HLN markets and negotiates the lease, collects and disperses payments, and monitors usage information.

Good quality hunting properties is what makes this whole process work. With competitive bidding and a managed lease, our hunting lease program provides both income and control when you lease your property through us.

Landowner Benefits

Our hunting lease program provides a comprehensive managed hunting lease.

• Additional Income - Recreational leases create new income sources and increase return on investment. A fair, competitive bidding system is used to maximize lease income.
