About Starkville....

Starkville is home to Mississippi State University which gives us many options on types of housing. Because of quick access to our revitalized Main Street area and the University, living in the city limits is a premium. Along Hwy 12 are the grocery stores, restaurant chains, and large retail stores.
Neighborhoods with the quickest access include: Crossgate, Greenoaks, Longmeadow, The Lakes, Pleasant Acres, Academy Place, Sherwood Commons, Sherwood Forest, Greenbriar, Colonial Hills, Timbercove, Country Club Estates, and Huntington Park. Other neighborhoods with easy access to shopping and the university are, South Ridge, Stone Ridge, Heritage Colony, Grand Oaks, Forrest Hills, Oktibbeha Gardens, Plantation Homes, and Steele Plantation. This is a short list of the neighborhoods to choose from. If you prefer to locate on the north side of town (Hwy 182 or North Montgomery, North Jackson, Old West Point Rd, etc.) or a more rural location there are great options I can show you. Use your favorite map website to do an address search or look at the general area to decide what you need to be close to.

Starkville is home to Mississippi State University and our market paces itself on the needs for all types of housing. Students, faculty, professionals, and second homes for alumni are all part of our diverse market.
I have worked with many parents who are buying for their student especially when there will be brothers and sisters following the same path to college. More and more parents are taking advantage of the opportunity to buy instead of rent and then become the one to gain some rental income.
It's a good idea to get started early if you plan to buy in the Starkville area.

I value continuing education to understand how to best serve clients in the Real Estate Industry. Beyond my education at the Master's level in the field of Agriculture, from MSU, I hold the designations of ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative) and SRS (Seller Representative Specialist).

These organizations promote members to increase their training and uphold a Code of Ethics. In addition, there are state license laws that every licensee must follow. This industry is focused on servicing clients and growing communities for the betterment of the market and thus the economy.
