Weaver Creek Ranch LLC

Overview

The property is located in Bowie County in Northeast Texas, seven miles east of the town of Simms. It was selected for its attractive price, prime location, high production value, abundant water resources, high aesthetic, and outsized appreciation potential.  The ranch’s financial, productive, ecological, and recreational value can all be significantly improved through targeted upgrades and regenerative stewardship.

East Texas is an ideal location for Agisle’s first LLC offering.  The investment case is simple. It's one of the world’s most profitable places to run cattle, for many reasons: high rainfall, abundant groundwater, sandy loam soils, quality forage, rapid pasture recovery, dense stocking rates, short winters, low feed & input costs, excellent tree cover, low regulations, cowboy labor pool, and many avenues for buying & selling cattle.

High carrying capacity and abundant water make East Texas a structurally higher ROI market for ranch real estate in our view.

Projections

We believe the property LLC can deliver a +14% compound annual return over a 5Y investment term, on a balance of +7% annual appreciation and +7% cash yield, the bulk of which can be distributed in years 1 and 2.  The ranch will seek to generate income from strategic asset sales, government cost-sharing initiatives, cattle grazing lease, carbon credits, select timbering, and hunting outfitters.

Development plan

The ranch's development plan is three-pronged. First, rationalization of the asset base should internally fund strategic capex upgrades, such as installation of a freshwater irrigation system to better distribute water to pastures.

Second, conversion from a conventional to regenerative grazing system is expected to significantly enhance rangeland conditions and improve property value. Specifically, the grazing plan involves time-managed, rotational grazing across 20 to 24 paddocks of adaptive electric fencing to increase herd density (~9 animal units/acre per paddock), reduce paddock duration to <4 days, eliminate "selective" over-grazing, and provide optimal pasture rest & recovery. These are powerful value drivers.

Third, the ranch will seek to improve property value through developing accretive and sustainable income streams, including carbon credits.

Carbon Credits

Then ranch's prospective soil improvements are both quantifiable and certifiable per established protocols within the fast-growing market for carbon credits.  Agisle will pursue efficient off-take solutions to the benefit of LLC members. Importantly, landowners can take satisfaction knowing their investment is generating an actionable and measurable client change solution.
