We Love What We Do!
George Hamilton was born and raised in the Sequatchie Valley. He grew up on a farm in Bledsoe County, graduated from Sequatchie County High School, and earned a degree from MTSU. With a passion for the Sequatchie Valley, he knew he wanted to build a career here, so he then acquired his auctioneer and real estate license. A strong work ethic, intimate knowledge of the Sequatchie Valley and surrounding Cumberland Plateau, and love of the industry have made George a pillar of the real estate community. When not at the office or out pursuing real estate interests, you can find George working at his farm, hunting with friends, or spending quality time with his grandchildren.
Jim Thompson grew up on Signal Mountain – one of the many mountain tops along the Cumberland Plateau. He received his degree in Wildlife Biology at UT Knoxville, which led to a 24-year career in managing wildlife and habitat within a truly special sporting community here in Dunlap. He earned his real estate license out of necessity but quickly found value in merging his love and knowledge of the land with his enjoyment of people into a new career path. With 40 years of outdoor experience across Tennessee and beyond, plus his education, Jim specializes in recreational properties for clients seeking large acreage for enjoyment or investment. Free time typically finds him at duck camp or enjoying time with his wife and two sons.

George Hamilton & Jim Thompson
Larry Boyd, Jonathan Compton, and Shannon Land
Larry Boyd and Jonathan Compton work the farm and rental house aspect of the business. They do everything from feeding and moving cattle to every day handy-man issues that arise around the farm, office and rental homes.
Shannon Land mostly works the office, from keeping the books to property management. But she also has been known to pull on her work boots and help with the cattle as needed!
From George to Jim, to Shannon, Larry and Jonathan, all help make George Hamilton Real Estate and Management the hometown personal business that it is.
