Team Work Makes the Dream Work!

Mims Real EstateMims Real Estate Advisors is so proud to be a part of the Freeport Community. “Principled Advice Always” is not just their value proposition; it’s their way of life. “We chose these three words because it reflects our value system of integrity, education and personal service,” says Jennifer Mims. “It’s not just a tag line. It is who we are and how we live.”
Together they are a family-owned business: Jennifer and Bob Mims are co-owners and founders who lead the team. Jennifer is the broker-owner and Bob is their Certified Residential Appraiser. Together with their daughter Cady, also a licensed agent, and mom Susan, they sell, list and manage Freeport real estate. They have sold numerous homes and manage more than 100 properties. Whether you’re buying, selling or renting, Mims Real Estate Advisors has you covered! They offer both brokerage and property management services.

Their journey to Freeport began when Jennifer and Bob moved to Walton County from Savannah, Ga. in 2003. “We invested years in our education earning licenses and state certifications as brokers and appraisers,” says Jennifer. They started their business in 2006 before finally settling on Freeport as their home in 2007. Why Freeport? Because Freeport reminds Jennifer of the town she was born and raised in—Ojai, Ca. “We have the best town, people and events. From Pickin’ on the Porch to our 60-acre sports complex to our beautiful annual Christmas parade. Mims Real Estate Advisors is so proud and honored to be a part of the Freeport community.” Always happy to have visitors, their office is located across the street from City Hall.

So how does a local pro in the real estate world do business? With integrity and professionalism, always putting the client first in every situation. “If you’re a buyer, our purpose is to find you the right home, at the best price, at the right time, with the least amount of problems. If you are a seller, our purpose is to net you the most amount of money, in the shortest period of time, with the least amount of problems,” says Jennifer.
Mims Real Estate Advisors offer a specialized service of Single Agency Brokerage Representation. As a single agent they and their associates owe to you the following duties: 1) Dealing honestly and fairly; 2) Loyalty; 3) Confidentiality; 4) Obedience; 5) Full disclosure; 6) Accounting for all funds; 7) Skill, care and diligence in the transaction; 8) Presenting all offers and counter offers in a timely manner, unless a party has previously directed the licensee otherwise in writing; and 9) Disclosing all known facts that materially affect the value of the residential real estate property and are not readily observable.

Each client is different with different goals, timelines and expectations who deserve and need personal attention. “For most people, this is the largest investment they own,” says Jennifer. “It’s not just a property, but a home to their family, children, pets and sometimes parents.” The Mims family takes great pride and care in working with each and every client they have. “We would love the opportunity to meet with you and become one of your choices when seeking Real Estate advice. We are a family business and a family of animal lovers too! So, come and see us soon. You might see one of our previously rescued Chihuahuas or our newfound loves—the French Bulldogs. We welcome the opportunity to represent you!”
