Real Estate has turned out to be a calling for me. I worked in the Real Estate Industry for over 25 years in Baldwin county, working as a property manager, a licensed assistant to one of Alabama’s highest producing agents, team partnerships and an individual top producing Broker. When my husband and I moved back to Butler County in 2006 I came to work for First Realty of Greenville, Inc. When Mary McKinley offered to sell the company to me, I jumped at the chance.

Susan Rhodes

Broker Associate/Realtor®

I would love to assist you in finding the perfect home or property in our great town. I think you will enjoy living in our small, wonderful town.

I was born and raised in Greenville and only left for a short time to go to college. I can tell you there is nowhere else I would rather be than Greenville. Greenville is truly a place “where everybody knows your name”. It is always pleasant to ride down the road waving at friends and having them wave back.

Greenville offers something for everyone. We have a great deal of local talent and participation in various things, like theatre and art along with sports and other physical activities. Greenville is truly a great place to make a life and raise a family.

I have many years of experience, but I think my love and knowledge of the area will be what serves you best. So please give me a call today for any of your real estate needs.  Hope to see you soon!
