Our Story
Hometown People. Hometown Service. Hometown Friends. Hometown Realty.
Hometown Realty has been serving the Golden Triangle area of Mississippi for over 20 years. We are an independent, locally owned business that believes in putting our clients first. Hometown isn’t just a name to us. It describes who we are at our very core and our mission is simple; Provide the very best service in the industry to both buyer and seller and give everyone the personal “Hometown” touch.
In 1997 after a successful career at a national brokerage firm, Donna Ross started Hometown Realty in West Point, Mississippi. It was her love for real estate and a vision to serve her local community that inspired the creation of Hometown Realty. Donna laid the groundwork for a company that enjoyed a full and rewarding 20-year heritage.
In 2019, Donna decided to step away from the day-to-day operations and sold Hometown Realty to Jody Davis of Piedmont Capital Group. Like Donna, Jody is a fellow Mississippian from West Point with a successful history in real estate. He is a visionary leader with ambitions for growth and expansion, but still committed to giving clients that “Hometown” touch.
When Jody transitioned into leadership at Hometown Realty in the spring of 2019, the company had two agents and sales volume for the previous year was $3.5M.
In 2019, the company experienced remarkable growth. Hometown Realty opened a new branch office in Columbus, MS and added five agents to the team. It quickly became apparent that a more central location was needed to serve the Golden Triangle area. In June of 2020, Hometown Realty moved their main operations to downtown Columbus - the heart of “our hometown”. Sales volume quickly grew and 2020 was a banner year for Hometown Realty with sales volume totaling over $30M.
"Our team is honored to serve the Golden Triangle area of Mississippi. We are committed to the mission of providing exceptional service for all of our clients.
