Our growth and market share says it all.  We are currently ranked the #1 Real Estate agency south of Effingham, Illinois based on the number of properties we have sold.

Since 2002 we have known the only thing that truly counts when all is said and done is a sold sign and our client’s happiness.  We offer the very best marketing techniques in the business for our clients and offer the greatest marketing tools for our Agents.

You’ve probably heard the saying “presentation is everything”. Almost 95% of the marketplace will make a decision either favorably or unfavorably based simply on what information is available via copy and photos of your property. All this before they even make an appointment to see it.  In this day and age, it is imperative that you hire a company who is committed and well trained on how to present your home properly.  Your home must look better than all others in order to catch the Buyer’s eye. When you choose Farmer and Company Real Estate to professionally market your home, you hire a staff of experts who know how to expose your property to the masses.

The most common statement from our customers is that they see us everywhere!  We have always believed that past performance is a true measure of future results. The simple fact that our signs are everywhere is a true testament to what we have already accomplished. Despite our past success, we never stop looking for new and innovative ways to market our client’s homes.  Our homes are on the internet on countless websites, magazines, newspapers as well as in direct mailings & fliers and with relocation agencies and the Multiple Listing Services. The changes in internet technology are happening so fast that unless you are on the cutting edge of technology you will fall hopelessly behind.  We have made a commitment to technology and will always be on the cutting edge.

Our Agents are highly trained elite sales people that are hand picked by management.  The Agent must be committed to quality service and be ready to deliver it every time without fail.  We set the bar high and we would have it no other way.  Our Agents are some of the highest producing Agents in the market.

We spend considerable money on marketing property.  This is an incredibly important concept.  People often think national companies have more money to spend on your home.  In fact, the opposite is true.  They have huge overhead, and often indulge in self-serving sporadically placed national television campaigns that promote the company and not your home. At Farmer and Company Real Estate, we choose to use our marketing dollars on promoting our properties and not our company.  So, who has the biggest budget when it comes to selling your personal property? We do, and we always will.

At Farmer and Company Real Estate, your Agent is in charge of your home.  That means he or she will operate with all the tools we have to offer.  They will be in control of all marketing decisions and be accountable to you.  This is crucial.  Your agent is empowered to make all decisions and to work closely with you to ensure you are a satisfied customer.  If you have problems or suggestions, simply tell the Agent, and he or she can make it happen.

When one of our agents lists your property, he or she will be your Sellers agent and all loyalty and efforts will be made on your behalf.  The Agent essentially becomes your real estate advocate.  When you are a Buyer, the Agent is your Buyers Agent with all the same loyalties.  We will never allow any type of conflict of interest to occur. Complete representation from start to finish is our promise to you.

We are currently ranked the

#1 Real Estate Agency South of Effingham, Illinois

based on the number of properties we have sold.

What People Are Saying About Us

Let Our Customers Do the Talking
Stewart worked with me and my wife through one of the most tumultuous and hectic periods in our lives. In less than a year, we sold our house, bought a new house, inherited a house, sold it and I changed jobs. We worked with Stewart and his staff at Farmer and Company for all three real estate transactions. His knowledge of the local housing market as well as his excellent relationships with title and financing institutions in the area were very beneficial. His level of communication was great. Although the process can be stressful at times, Stewart was always pleasant and a lot of fun to work with.
Jason Peterson

Buyer & Seller

Great Experience with Listing my home! Very informative and great input! Very easy to work with and quick response time for questions and information requests.
K Wilkins

Listed Home

We have known Scott A Farmer since he represented the seller of a log home that we purchased in 2008. More recently, we chose Scott to list our property for sale. Scott has done an outstanding job in marketing it. He has always been honest, trustworthy, informative and extremely professional. Scott is one of the finest real estate agent we’ve ever dealt with! We won’t hesitate in referring other home buyers and sellers to him.

Scott is wonderful to work with. He was not only my agent when I bought my house, but also when I sold it. He is very knowledgeable about the area, and made sure that my house was competitively marketed. In addition, he made everything very easy for me, a first time buyer and seller, by addressing any questions that I had. Overall, I would be happy to work with Farmer & Company Real Estate at any time in the future. They come with my highest recommendation.
Ashley Shelton

Seller

They did a great job of helping us find just the right home for our family. Went out of their way to facilitate the sell of our home. Every person we worked with went above and beyond!
Dr. Kyle Heine

I use Scott Farmer for ALL my real estate needs whether it’s buying, selling, or even leasing. Tiffany and Gentry are fantastic with all the logistics, and I would recommend him to anyone at anytime! He is truly the best at his craft in the industry!
Mendy Harris

I inherited a house in Metropolis and live out of State. I had originally had another agent who I don’t really felt had any interest in selling my house. I spoke to the owner who was very, very nice and he got me a new agent, Becky Hawes. That changed everything! Becky is wonderful, she was on the ball, easy to contact and always returned calls and walked me through my first house sale and out of state no less like a champ. She was knowledgeable, honest and I really felt she had my best interest at heart. She got my house sold quickly. She suggested a local man Jeff Brugger to do the impossible task of going through the garage and my aunts shed and cleared it all out and put the things I knew I wanted in storage. Becky and Jeff were so wonderful, I trust them both implicitly. Becky made the transition so easy. I can’t thank her or recommend her enough. And the office manager, Gentry is also amazing. Except for that one person my experience was 100% positive.
Donna Frederickson

I love every person in this real estate office! They are fabulous to deal with and go ABOVE and BEYOND in all transactions.
Meagan Musselman

Stewart has been with us thru the whole process. He was instrumental in helping us pay what we wanted for the house we wanted. He worked seamlessly with our mortgage broker and made this the best home buying experience possible. Very low stress and incredibly pleasant. His local knowledge and enthusiasm for the community are infectious. Small time charm with the benefits of a local company…. I would suggest Stewart and his team to anyone moving to Western Kentucky or Southern Illinois. He is a 12 on a scale of 1-10.
A Robinson

Buyer

We have had a great experience working with Scott Farmer. We used Farmer & Company Real Estate to find a home when we moved to Metropolis several years ago. Now Scott is helping us in our relocation to Paducah. He is a top notch realtor/broker and goes the extra mile to help us find exactly what we’re looking for. He is extremely professional, knowledgeable and hard working and we highly recommend Farmer & Company Real Estate.
Paul and Sarah Humm

Buyer

Because we live out of state it was especially important to have Scott’s knowledge, expertise and responsiveness to our needs. Scott handled any questions quickly and always kept us up to date. We will definitely have Farmer & Company Real Estate handle our next property sale.  They are the best!
Carolyn Strickland

Our family selected Scott Farmer and Farmer & Company Real Estate to assist us with the sale of a family farm. Scott’s reputation and professionalism were two of the primary reasons for our selection. However, he brings that and so much more to the table. We were impressed with his knowledge, his attention to detail, and his genuine concern for our best interests as sellers. Due to the death of a family member, it became necessary to sell a farm that had been in the family for over 70 years. This, of course, was an emotionally trying time for our family. I was concerned that differing opinions among heirs might result in a lengthy process. Due, in large part, to Scott’s counsel the whole process went very smoothly, efficiently and quickly. The property was sold with all parties being in complete agreement. I give Farmer & Company Real Estate high marks for making this all happen for our family. Thank you. 
Brian Bailey

Seller

Our experience with Kim has always been wonderful. She keeps an eye out for exactly what we are looking for in a home and updates us regularly on new listings. Thankful to have found her to help with the search of our new home.
Geoff Hannan

Buyer

Lucas Grace was great during our home buying experience. Thanks!
Derek Waddell

Buyer

My husband and I recently purchased a home thru farmer real estate, I have to say the whole team was wonderful, but a special thanks to our realtor Luke Grace at farmers!  He went above and beyond to find us the perfect house and the best financing.  Thanks again, Luke!
Christy Crim

Buyer

Working with Farmer & Company Real Estate is a true pleasure. Their work ethic, professionalism, and ability to effectively and efficiently communicate aided in a closing that was mutually successful for all parties.
Gregory Fitzgerald

President, Tri-Oak Consulting Group

I had the privilege of financing a home purchase where Scott was the listing agent for the property. Scott exemplifies class, professionalism, and know-how in a way that few people do in modern times. He responded promptly to anything that we needed for closing the loan; and when our closing was delayed to poor weather, he kept his client in the game while we were able to overcome obstacles to finish.

I highly recommend Scott for anyone who is buying or selling real estate and look forward to doing business with him in the future.

Caise Diab

Senior Mortgage Banker, Inland Home Mortgage Company

Scott was very easy to deal with. He made the process very understandable. He was available for me on weekends and after hours. I could not be more happy with the service I received from Scott.
Dave Stewart

Having been on the buy-sell side of real estate transactions several times in my lifetime, I’ve realized the imperative of hiring the right real estate agent. An agent needs, in parallel, to understand the business side of the transaction as well as the emotions involved with primary residence sales.

Scott personifies what it means to be a professional agent. He comprehends promptness, professionalism, and ornate residential knowledge are requisites for a real estate agent. Scott maintained communicate throughout the transaction, while also providing true, in-depth knowledge of comparable sales and neighborhood profiles.

I will use Farmer & Company Real Estate again in the future, and I highly recommend them for anyone interested in marketing or procuring real estate in the Southern Illinois / Western Kentucky market.

Jason Losser

Seller

Stewart was excellent to work with, very knowledgeable and eager to help. Highly recommend! My closing landed right in the middle of my vacation and he handled everything for me so I didn’t have to interrupt my vacation. He has also helped tremendously with a problem I’ve had after purchasing my home. He stands behind all of his sales and will go above and beyond!
Jan

Buyer

Highly recommend Becky Hawes! Easy to work with and always willing to help to get the job done quickly.
