RESILIENCE
AND GROWTH: A LOOK BACK AT UNITED COUNTRY IN THE 1930S
As we
celebrate 100 years of United Country Real Estate, we’re reflecting on
the moments that shaped our history.
In 1934, founder
Roscoe Chamberlain wrote:
"The
depression has brought to quick realization the fact that Mother Earth takes
care of her own, and that the man who produces from the soil sustenance for the
good health and happiness of his family is still the most independent man in
the world."
Many took
these words to heart, purchasing farmland at bargain prices during the 1930s.
During this period, United Country grew to over 50 offices, and our
groundbreaking real estate catalog expanded to national distribution, setting
the stage for continued growth.
Chamberlain’s
vision of connecting buyers and sellers across the country endures today,
proving that real estate—especially rural land—remains a timeless investment.
