ABOUT JOHN

Hello. My name is John H. Hicks, Jr. I am a 1981 graduate of Henry A. Bradshaw High School, Florence, Alabama.

After exiting military service with the U.S. Army in 1994, I moved back to my hometown of Florence and dove into the field of Insurance to become a licensed Property-Casualty-Life-Health Insurance Agent. At the same time I attended Faulkner University, full-time, to complete my Bachelor of Science in Management of Human Resources, where I graduated with honors. I now enjoy living in Florence with my wife, Sarah and our two daughters, Lily and Emma. After more than two decades in Insurance, I decided to branch out and add “Realtor” to my resume. I felt I had missed out on some great opportunities, having witnessed many real estate transactions through the years via Commercial and Residential insurance transactions. Real Estate just seemed like it would be a good fit with what I was already doing. I am so glad I made that decision. It has turned out to be a very rewarding experience. The reward comes from helping others. My goal as a Realtor is to help customers navigate through what can sometimes be a stressful negotiation, to simplify the buying and selling processes by making each step clear and understandable. My desire is to make every client happy by being honest, by keeping things simple, and by never making anyone feel pressured. I am a proud member of the Elmore Realty & Auction team. I am thankful to be associated with such a knowledgeable and conscientious staff, and to work with folks who share the same values that I do for my clients. Another thing I am thankful for is having access to not just one MLS (Multiple Listing Service) but three. Being an Elmore Realty team member gives me access to the Shoals Association of Realtors, the Huntsville Association of Realtors, and the Middle Tennessee Association of Realtors, which stretches all the way to Nashville - so - anywhere in Alabama or Tennessee, whether you are looking for Auction services, have a Farm that

needs selling, or are looking to buy or sell a Residential or Commercial property we have the tools to service any and all of your Real Estate needs.
