Lee Burton

Lee’s career path led him into real estate in 2017. After 7 years specializing in rural land sales, he has closed over $58 million in sales volume for clients. In 2022, he obtained his broker designation and has evolved his real estate career into a multifaceted service. In 2024, his services were expanded with the addition of serving as the sponsoring broker for Wilder Real Estate Company.

Based out of Abilene and Albany offices, Lee has an extensive network of land expertise within the North Central Texas region, where he serves buyer and seller clients that place their trust in him. Lee’s philosophy as a real estate professional is simply to provide top-tier value through servant leadership. If he is successful, the fruit of faithfully guiding clients and agents through sales transactions will be clearly identified by the high-quality relationships and reputation of Wilder Real Estate Co. 

Prior to real estate, land and cattle management were the foundation of his career after graduating from Texas A&M University in 2004. Today, Lee serves as Executive Secretary and hosts the “Love the Land” podcast for the Texas Grazing Land Coalition (TxGLC). He is also a member of the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association and a Texas Farm Bureau member. He is also a Texas Agriculture Lifetime Leadership (TALL) XV alumnus.

Lee and his wife, Alicia, raise their family in a rural area near Abilene where Alicia homeschools their four kids: Gage, Truitt, Cameron, and Clancy. The Burton family is active in their church and Bible Study Fellowship (BSF). As a family, they enjoy ranching, 4H activities, showing stock horses, raising commercial feeder steers, hunting, camping, fly fishing, and spending time in the mountains.
