WHO ARE WE?

“Friends who share a passion for helping families discover this beautiful place…
and NOBODY knows this lake better!”

Since 1971 POSSUM KINGDOM REAL ESTATE® is proud to have been the leader in introducing people to our lake. Our over 50 YEAR respected and productive record encourages people in need of real estate service to come to us. WE LOVE REFERRALS! The majority of our business comes from referrals and because of the quality and tenure of our Agents we enjoy repeat Buyers. Our original PKRE® Broker Mary Lou Palmros passed on our reputation of being known for... “Nobody knows this lake better!” Our current Managing Broker and Marketing Director “V” Hanssen has since 1996 has kept up with the legacy. Our business naturally expanded into recreational LAND SALES in close proximity to the lake. We increased our services in 2008 to include land sales in Palo Pinto, Stephens and Young counties. Our Brokerage has since also been associated with the “Best in the Business” organizations including Better Homes and Gardens in the 1990’s, RE/MAX Network from 2006-2016, and the LuxuryRealEstate.com network SINCE 2018. In 2020, 2021 and 2022 the regional MLS reported that PKRE has the most Agents ranking in the TOP TEN PRODUCERS in all of Palo Pinto, Stephens, and Young counties, plus PKRE® reported the highest dollar production is sales for 2020, 2021 and 2022. An accomplishment to be proud of considering the competition from DFW “mega brokerages” trying to push into our market. Most of our Agents have long tenure in our marketplace with their focus on achieving our most important goal of selling our clients’ properties, even under difficult market conditions. These agents share their expertise with our newer Agents, who are younger and thus more technically minded. The result is a positive environment of mentoring, teaching, and sharing. The difference in our organization is obvious to those who get to know us.
