The company
was incorporated in 1985 when we began to look for land for ourselves in East Texas.
We found that you could only see one or two properties in a day of looking and that many
properties
were not as suitable as they appeared on paper. In 1996 we found the property of our
dreams in
Van Zandt County. We would like to do the same for you. With the United
Country® Franchise,
we have added more tools to help meet the needs of investors, as well as residential and
commercial buyers.
The Country
Connection uses the newest technologies to save you time in your search by use of a
gallery
of photographs, virtual tours, properties database, and the World Wide Web. This
allows you to preview
options and eliminate wasted trips in your search for property for your home or
company. We are constantly
updating our files and the web as new properties are listed and looking for the most
desirable properties to
show our clients.
We are the
only Real Estate Office you need in NorthEast Texas. Let us help you find what you
want
without calling on every ad you see.We will be glad to show you any property listed for
sale in our area,
whether it is our listings or another Broker's. With our membership in the Greater Dallas
(North Texas
Regional) MLS we can find an area property to suits your needs, if it is out
there. If we find a suitable
property for you and it is listed by another Broker, we will contact that Broker and set
up an appointment
to show you the property. If we represent you in the purchase of a property, our
services are without
cost to you. Brokers in our area cooperate on sales and the commission paid by the
seller would be
shared by the listing and selling Broker. If you are ready to put us to work finding
your country home,
go to the first of the Property Indexes to
review a number of the properties available in this area.
If you do not find anything that suits your needs, you can complete a Buyer
Data Form, to help us know
more exactly what you need. If you needs and price range are within the range
available in our area,
we will look through our complete Listing and the MLS database for possible matches.
For Sellers,
we offer a comprehensive package of advertising techniques to bring you qualified buyers
including: listings in United Country's full color
nationally circulated catalogs, digital pictures of your
property placed on the webpage as quickly as possible, and videotaping for buyer preview.
We also place
advertising in local, Dallas, and suburban newspapers, as well as East Texas
Properties. We have a
number of internet sites where we advertise property including LoopNet for Commercial
Properties,
and the Texas Farm and Ranch Magazine website for our ranches. We are always looking
for
new ways to better display your property. See the "List
with Us" page for more details.

available as our listings or through the MLS, to which all local Canton Realtors belong.
