A list of reasons hunters should lease hunting land through Base Camp Leasing.

Finding and hunting private land hunting lease comes with a series of challenges. For hunters, Base Camp Leasing takes the hassle out of leasing hunting land. Check out this list of reasons hunters should lease hunting land through Base Camp Leasing.

1. Easier Connections with Landowners

One of the biggest challenges of leasing hunting land is finding a landowner who’s willing to lease their land to a hunter. With Base Camp Leasing, hunters don’t have to knock on doors, make phone calls, post ads for leases, or other lease-seeking practices. Merely sign up with Base Camp Leasing and begin scrolling through available leases.

2. Access to a Vast Number of Properties

Not only does Base Camp Leasing allow hunters to find leases but it also delivers access to a vast number of properties. This allows hunters to be choosy, rather than taking the first available property. This gives them the ability to wait, be patient, and search for just the right property. They can wait until a property checks all, or most, of the right boxes.

3. An Easy-to-Use Website Platform

The Base Camp Leasing website is intuitive. That said, its interface offers simplicity. Navigating from page to page, and through available lease listings, is easy for anyone with basic computer skills. The lease hunting process is fun, and it’s more enjoyable because the website platform is designed with ease of use in mind.

4. Extensive Property Listing Details and Photos

Each hunting lease listing includes a long, detailed description of the premises. It outlines key details from the dedicated hunting lease agent who walked the property. Oftentimes, they cover animal sightings, discovered sign, habitat details, topographic details, trail camera photos, past harvest photos, and more. Of course, they take numerous photos of the property, too.

5. Clear Contract Details That Protect Hunters

Every lessor (landowner) and lessee (hunter) should sign a contract that protects them and their interests. Fortunately, Base Camp Leasing drafts a detailed lease agreement that protects landowners and hunters. From the lessee’s perspective, Base Camp Leasing crafts contracts with clear details that protect hunters. For example, it ensures no other hunters other than the lessee is allowed to hunt the property.

6. Streamlined Contract and Paperwork Processes

Handling a long list of hunting lease paperwork can be challenging. What’s this paper? What’s that document? Where’s the insurance policy? Base Camp Leasing makes this process easy to complete. The streamlined contract and paperwork signings make an otherwise hassle-filled and time-consuming thing a quick and easy task.

7. Exclusive Hunting Land Access

Those who pay for hunting land leases want exclusive access to that hunting land. With permission, and some other leasing arrangements, that’s not guaranteed. With HuntStand, that’s clearly stipulated and heavily enforced via general culture and legally binding contract clauses.

8. Potential Opportunities for Advanced Habitat and Wildlife Management Practices

Some leasing relationships might not allow for habitat improvement and wildlife management. However, with Base Camp Leasing, it is a possibility. If both the lessor and lessee are interested, this can be included in the lease agreement. Of course, it benefits both parties because the land improves, and hunters can experience more success.

9. First Right of Renewal

From a hunter's perspective, a common fear of leasing is that someone will swoop in and lease it out from under you. With Base Camp Leasing, that’s a non-issue. As long as you lease a property, and it remains in the Base Camp Leasing system, you receive the first right of renewal. Meaning, when the lease nears expiration, you have the first choice to re-lease it. If you decline, only then does it become available to other hunters. This remains true for as many years as you lease the land, or until the landowner pulls the property from the Base Camp Leasing program entirely.

10. Access to Office Staff and a Hunting Lease Agent for Questions or Concerns

Base Camp Leasing has a reputation for having an incredible, knowledgeable office staff. It also includes a vast network of hunting lease agents that know hunting land, and the nuances of hunting leases, very well. You have access to these team members regarding lease questions and concerns.

11. Peace of Mind with a $5 Million Liability Insurance Policy

Lastly, enjoy peace of mind with a $5 million liability insurance policy. In today’s world, even $1-$2 million insurance policies can be insufficient. With $5 million of coverage, it allows the landowners and hunters alike to forget about the anxiety and stress that comes with “what-ifs” and focus on the positives — great hunting opportunities.

Lease a Dream Farm with Base Camp Leasing

Hunters hoping to lease a dream farm with Base Camp Leasing can do so today. Merely sign up and select the right membership level for you. Of course, you can certainly find leases via the free, Fork Horn ($29), and 8-Point ($69) membership levels. That said, a Wall Hanger membership ($249) gets you the fastest look as soon as properties become available. Oftentimes, some of the better properties are selected before 8-Point, Fork Horn, and free members have a chance to see them. Regardless, enjoy the hunting lease search process. After all, with a good system, that can be part of the fun.
