Austin Knobloch
Serving Northern Illinois
Serving Northern Illinois, Austin Knobloch combines his strong work ethic, practical experience, and passion for the outdoors to help clients successfully buy and sell rural property. Born in Rockford and now living in Union, Illinois, with his wife Sarah, and son, Wyatt, he has a genuine appreciation for the people and land that make this region special.
Before joining Midwest Land Group, Austin spent 10 years as a licensed plumber in his small hometown, earning a reputation for reliability, honesty, and excellent customer service. Those same values guide his work in land sales, where he focuses on building meaningful relationships and making sure every client feels confident and cared for throughout the process.
Austin’s agricultural background includes long days working on a large grain operation. His extensive experience in the field has given him a solid understanding of land productivity, soil quality, and what makes a property valuable.
Outside of work, Austin is a passionate waterfowl hunter who has been known to travel hundreds of miles each weekend scouting birds and studying migration patterns across Northern Illinois. Years of time in the field have given him an exceptional knowledge of the land, as well as strong relationships with local farmers who allow him access to hunt on their properties. He’s committed to putting in the miles—literally and figuratively—to help clients achieve their land goals.
