2026 Land Market Outlook with Jeramy Stephens, National Land Realty Few people in the land industry see more deals in a year than Jeramy Stephens. As compliance director at National Land Realty, he has eyes on roughly 1,700 to 2,000 transactions annually across Arkansas, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Missouri, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Ohio. In this conversation, Jeramy breaks down what the land market actually looks like heading into 2026, from the squeeze tariffs and rising input costs are putting on Arkansas rice and cotton farmers, to the correction happening in rural mountain properties bought at inflated COVID-era prices. He covers why premium farmland and high-quality duck hunting ground remain surprisingly strong, how the generational transfer of wealth is quietly fueling land purchases, and why the land market is always the last asset class to move when broader economic uncertainty hits.
