Pend Oreille Realty Facilitates Sale of Buck Quarter Ranch

---

Cusick, WA – Pend Oreille Realty, a division of Best Choice Realty, today announced the successful, off-market sale of the exclusive Buck Quarter Ranch, a nearly 900-acre highly-private estate located in the pristine landscape of Northeastern Washington. The property was acquired by a high-profile, billionaire technology executive from Silicon Valley, who requested that their identity and the terms of the transaction remain strictly confidential.

This landmark transaction underscores a significant trend among affluent tech leaders: a shift toward acquiring large-scale, self-reliant estates designed for privacy, long-term sustainability, and secure family retreats. Buck Quarter Ranch is recognized as one of the Pacific Northwest's premier properties to meet this specific demand.

The buyer specifically sought a highly private, self-sustaining estate, a category that has gained increased attention in tech circles following Mark Zuckerberg’s well known Hawaiian compound and the broader interest in long-term, resilient properties.

“Buyers in the tech community are increasingly focused on properties with serious defensibility, independent water resources, and robust off-grid capabilities,” said Cody Abbott, owner of Pend Oreille Realty. “Buck Quarter Ranch stands out as one of the best examples of that anywhere in the Pacific Northwest, offering unmatched resilience and autonomy.”

The ranch’s appeal lies in its sophisticated infrastructure and natural resources, which enable true self-sufficiency. The property features include multiple natural water sources, advanced infrastructure, and extensive agricultural potential, all designed to support autonomous operation for prolonged periods. These features, combined with its massive, nearly 900-acre footprint that offers ultimate seclusion and security, were key drivers of this acquisition.

The new owner reportedly intends to further invest in and enhance the ranch’s sustainability systems, committing to the long-term environmental preservation and resilience of the property.
