Tory Baughn is a very conscientious individual and realtor who listens closely to your needs and wants. We had been looking for property on the River or lake for years and because of his ability to be outdoors and always keeping an eye open for property, that had both value and beauty, he was able to find us exactly what we were looking for. His background in engineering helps him understand the nuances of each property and gives him a leg up on other realtors. He was able to create a great relationship between all parties by being objective and understanding to everyone's needs while still representing
