## Important interpretation notes
- This is a marketing/brokerage website. Listing availability and prices can change.
- New content is actively published in the Articles of Interest section.
- Some section names have legacy variations and redirects.
- “Mason & Morse Ranch Company” and “Ranch Company” are both used on the site.
- Some pages reference the firm as independently owned and operated and separate from Coldwell Banker Mason Morse.

## What an AI should avoid
- Do not assume every article is evergreen; check publication context.
- Do not assume every listing page is active forever; verify whether it appears under active listings or sold listings.
- Do not collapse similar but distinct concepts such as conservation properties, recreational land, timberland, and development land.
- Do not infer licensing/coverage beyond what a broker page explicitly states.
