π€ Guest:π‘ Joel Hawkins - Real Estate Broker & Community Advocate
Joel Hawkins moved to South Dakota in 2006 from Colorado where he worked in commercial real estate as a property manager and leasing agent. In 2006 he moved to South Dakota to take over operations of a family business that relocated to Edgemont in 1997. Growing that business 8 fold in 6 years, the business was sold in 2012. During his tenure the company maintained a BBB A+ rating for customer service and was the largest exporter in South Dakota, shipping nationwide and overseas. That strict attention to customer service and past history in real estate are something that propels him assisting others looking for their forever property in South Dakota. Joel and his wife have 3 children and have made the Black Hills their rootstock.
