Here in the midst of economic chaos and fear, where the Stock Market has lost more than half its value in the last eighteen months and scandals and fraud seem to overwhelm the news every day, you might wonder if there's anything real and substantive out there in the world. Remember when people bought what they could afford? Remember when handshakes still meant something? Remember a time when people said what they meant and meant what they said? And how about the good "old-fashioned" work ethic, where people worked hard for and earned their money to afford things of value? Are these values just "old-fashioned"? We think not. Although we all may have lost some net-worth, there is still something very worthwhile about living in the Sheridan area.
Yes, we have values here that still resonate with most people, and perhaps that adds value to our special properties. We think value and values are closely correlated. We think that the "old-fashioned" values help add value to real estate, because people want to live, work and play in areas where they can trust one another, where they feel safe, earn a decent living and enjoy their lives. This is a unique place where you can enjoy the "Sheridan Lifestyle". We think the value of our properties is tied to quality; quality land, quality of investment and quality of life. Quality properties have always sold in the Sheridan market and we think the trend will continue. We're fortunate to live in an area where we are blessed with the riches of abundant natural resources, including coal, oil and gas, in addition to the extraordinary outdoor recreation and wonderful lifestyle offered here. There are many reasons to live, work and play in Sheridan. Whether you're looking for an investment opportunity or a great lifestyle, or both, we have it. Sheridan and the surrounding area, which includes Big Horn and thousands of acres of our wonderful Big Horn Mountains and the vast ranch land of Powder River Country, offers opportunities to enjoy life in a more relaxed setting with high quality of life . At the end of the day, you can "hang your hat" in Sheridan, WY knowing that your family is safe, your taxes are low and you can actually enjoy your investments. Read more about Sheridan and Wyoming, where we have low unemployment, a state surplus, and some great investment opportunities.
When you invest in any property, you're making an investment in more than just the property. If it's a commercial property for, whether you live there or not, you are investing in the greater economy in which the property is located. Similarly, when investing in a home, you are investing in a community as well as your family and your dreams. After all, most people invest in their homes for more than just financial reasons. We like to believe that people still invest in their families and lifestyles by purchasing homes that suit both. Although home buyers can and will see the values of their homes increase over time, it is likely to take time and not be inflated the way it has been in the past decade or so. While the homes appreciate in value, hopefully families are growing together and enjoying their lives.
In an economy where uncertainty is certain, where corruption, fraud and dishonesty have left investors with real losses, it might be comforting to know that we still have real values and value. From high-end properties to income producing properties 
and cash-cow businesses, we have something to offer. We think the value of our properties is tied to quality; quality land, quality of investment and quality of life. Quality properties have always sold in the Sheridan market and we think the trend will continue. We're fortunate to live in an area where we are blessed with the riches of abundant natural resources, including coal, oil and gas, in addition to the extraordinary outdoor recreation and wonderful lifestyle offered here.
COMING THIS SUMMER IN SHERIDAN AND BIG HORN This summer, we'll have 10-14 goal polo at the Flying H Polo Club and our local club, the Big Horn Polo Club, will offer Sunday games at the Big Horn Equestrian Center. This is excellent action for spectators. We will also have outstanding rodeo events, such as the Sheridan WYO Rodeo for 2009, which will surely excite spectators as will the World Championship Indian Relay Races. Furthermore, we have the best golf in Wyoming at the Powder Horn Golf Community- a 27-hole championship course and we have all kinds of outdoor adventures for the serious sportsman or the more casual recreation seeker. The wonderful Big Horn Mountains and the Bighorn National Forest offer scenic drives, hikes, backpacking, fishing, camping, boating, etc., just to name a few activities. Maybe you like horseback riding. Try out one of our world-famous dude ranches, but be careful; they've "hooked" a lot of people and once "hooked, it's impossible to get the Sheridan Lifestyle out of your mind and soul!
Count your blessings each and every day. Today, as every day when I wake up in the beautiful Little Goose Valley near Sheridan and Big Horn, WY, I think how lucky and blessed I am to live in such a fantastic place. I have a great family and my surroundings are some of the most beautiful anywhere. Furthermore, the people here are friendly, which is really what makes it so great to live here. Just take a look at what I got to see today.
Instead of worrying about all the negativity out there in the world, just take a look around you and you'll find beauty; it's always there- in people, places and things. You just have to believe it to see it!
This weekend will be a great showcase for youth soccer in Sheridan, WY at the Big Horn Events Center (BHEC). It's really a great venue and a lot of fun as there will be 112 teams playing from the 10 and under age group up through the 14 year old division. This is sure to be a high energy event, filled with the enthusiasm of kids and soccer balls. Brought to you by MARS and the Sheridan County Soccer Association, the new 2008 MARS Big Horn Soccer Cup, formerly known as the SNICKERS Big Horn Mountain Cup, is sure to be just as great as the past events. Forest Mars graciously supplies plenty of treats for participants and spectators and this year there will be a Movie Under the Stars on a great big, blow-up, mega screen (rumor has it that it might be "Kicking and Screaming"). We are very lucky to have such great philanthropy and great events in Sheridan and Big Horn, Wyoming.
Exquisite! That word porbably caome as close to describing this property as anything can. You really need to actuall walk upon this land to appreciate it, but short of paralleling Chief Crazy Horse's footsteps, this will have to suffice until you get here to see it.
This could be one of the most unique offerings anywhere in the West. When you think of prime, spectacular western properties, you'd probably imagine an end-of-the-road masterpiece where you're in your own paradise that has a sense of exclusivity yet it's inviting, relaxing and beautiful. It would be far enough away from civilization to have quiet enjoyment, yet close enough to afford you the amenities you expect. Welcome to the OH
This gem has historical significance in the Sheridan and Big Horn area. Once home to Chief Crazy Horse and then home to Oliver Henry "Noll" Wallop and his heirs, the OH has never had a building; just the Plains Indians, the Wallop family, horses, cattle and wildlife have enjoyed it. Now it awaits your lifestyle. With just over 200 total acres, the OH, nestled in the Trabing Creek drainage and bordered by conservation easements, is as good as it gets. VIEW VIDEO.
Tonight, I'd like to showcase our beautiful area with a video "Landscapes and Lifestyles". In this video, you'll get a taste of what it's like to live in or near Sheridan, Wyoming. Maybe you already live here, or have visited for some reason (dude ranch vacation, business, etc.). Feel free to post your impressions and reflections of our area. The Sheridan Area has many wonderful things to see and do and we think the Sheridan Lifestyle is fairly unique, which is largely due to the culture that has been established over the past 150 years by the people who live here. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this video. Turn up the volume, relax and enjoy.

When it comes to really nice, one-of-a-kind ranches in the Sheridan area, we have an excellent track record as we deliver the best personal service, professionalism and results in the industry.
Since we grew up in the Sheridan area on a real working cattle ranch and have chosen to live here as adults and raise our families in the Sheridan area, we know the area and history very well and can share our passion for all that it offers with anyone considering ranch, recreational, commercial or residential real estate.
John and Galen are Sheridan, Wyoming natives and each share a profound appreciation for our community's heritage and a firm commitment to our continued prosperity in the years to come. Their grandfather, John P. Chase came to the area by train in the 1920's from Boston, Massachusetts. He returned later with his bride for their honeymoon and again many times afterwards to visit old friends, partake in business ventures or check in on the cattle ranch he purchased where John and Galen and their sister Lolly all grew up and where their father and mother continue to live today.
John P. Chase
Galen and John inherited their grandfather's entrepreneurial spirit and love for the West. When not working on their family's ranch or managing other ranch operations, Galen successfully started and operated a natural beef production and marketing company; he has spent the last 2 years involved in real estate acquisitions and helping manage a residential subdivision and development project in Sheridan. John, in addition to his wealth of knowledge and passion for land management planning and experience in managing large ranches and landscapes, has extensive experience in construction and spent nearly 10 years building custom homes in the Vail Valley of Colorado.
Their ranch up-bringing and experience in other business activities; plus the time spent living in various parts of the country and their travel abroad coupled with their educational accomplishments give John and Galen the unique ability to understand the needs of sophisticated buyers and to communicate effectively and coherently.
In only three years, John has quickly risen to the top in Sheridan real estate, earning respect from his peers and clients while carefully making sure people properly matched with a property. Galen joined John in the winter of '06-'07 and brought with him a high degree of expertise in deal-making. Just like working together on their family ranch, with hard work and results in mind, John and Galen create a great deal of synergy and solution-oriented results. The Chase Brothers are the top local team of real estate agents in the Sheridan area and they'll work hard and creatively to professionally earn your respect and also to be your friends at the end of the day.

Each of us has a lifetime of experience in ranching, ranches and ag-related businesses, and we try to bring that experience, combined with our work ethic to the table when representing our esteemed clients. We both grew up on a family ranch north of Clearmont and northeast of Sheridan and Big Horn, Wyoming.

Galen and I are extremely passionate about ranches and recreational properties. Many brokers will just try to sell a ranch, but as locals, we offer intimate service and we truly have appreciation for the natural wonders and uniqueness of each individual ranch. This appreciation will be enthusiastically displayed and the special character of each ranch ranch will be thoughtfully conveyed to qualified and serious buyers. We will take the time to accurately map, photograph and know all properties. We have deep respect and appreciation for the heritage, history and ecology along the face of the Big Horn Mountains and we'll thoroughly understand everything about it.

We believe that one's vision of the land should extend beyond the current grazing season or even the next year, but for the needs of future generations of wildlife, domestic animals and people.

Very Truly Yours,
John Chase
John has worked for me for several years. At first he was a successful ranch manager. Then he became a realtor. In this capacity, when I decided to make a move, he understood what I wanted and made it happen. He was creative and dedicated in his marketing approach for the sale of my ranch. The outcome was a smooth successful sale. He then helped me find, evaluate, and close on a new property. His hard work, experience in land managemen and, real estate skills make John a true asset to anyone buying and selling property. With the others at CENTURY 21 BHJ Realty, John is a great partner in real estate.- Jane Dunbar
We enjoyed working with John and BHJ Realty during the purchase of our ranch. The professionalism, honesty and integrity were outstanding, and John's knowledge of the ranch and overall knowledge of ranch management was very helpful.- Mike Schauer
We are very satisfied with our purchase. We found the most valuable service during the transaction to be the time and effort put into finding a piece of property that suited us. -Kurt and Jodi Ilgen
You're the hardest working man in the real estate business.
V/r,
Major Chris "Chaka" Bailey
