Meet The Founder, Max Wierda

Having grown up in West Michigan, a majority of my time as a child and young adult was spent outdoors either hunting or fishing. I attribute those countless hours and being in a family with strong hunting and fishing traditions as the fuel for my passion in wildlife and land.

After graduating from Calvin College with a degree in Finance, Marketing, and Human Resources, I accepted a video production internship with Midwest Whitetail and moved out to Iowa. During my time with Midwest Whitetail I spent basically every day during hunting season in a tree, either with bow in my hand or behind a camera. It was remarkable to be able to spend that much time doing something I am so passionate about in some of the best whitetail habitat in the world. I learned so much and it was an experience I will never forget. With that being said, towards the end of the internship I realized where my heart was and knew I wanted to move back where my passions for the outdoors really began in Michigan.

After moving back to Michigan, I spent the next five+ years as a land specialist and realtor. Throughout those five years, I assisted sellers and buyers with various real estate and land transactions and my passion for working with and for clients intensified even more. It was at that point I knew I wanted to take the next step and launch my own real estate & land brokerage. 

“I founded Terraquest with the vision of assisting sellers and buyers with the utmost integrity, trust, and expertise in order to make all your real estate and land aspirations a reality.”
