If you’ve followed Lee Realty on social media this summer, you’ve probably noticed that about once a week I’ve been highlighting a ‘locally grown; locally owned’ North Iowa business. Along with highlighting these businesses, I’ve been giving people the opportunity to enter a drawing for a gift card to that local business. It has been […]

I just listed a house in Marble Rock, IOWA. Although, calling it “just a house” doesn’t really do it justice.

One of my favorite things about our office location is that we’re right in the heart of Mason City. Often, I’ll walk downtown to run errands instead of driving from place to place, and along the way I inevitably run into someone I know. It’s another reminder of why I love living and working here.

Lee Realty currently has a few homes for sale in both Clear Lake and Ventura. Looking at today’s prices always reminds me of a conversation I had a few years ago when the first home in our area was listed for over a million dollars. At the time, I was shocked. Today, you’d be hard-pressed […]
