Andy: What is up? It is time for the St. George Real Estate Morning Drive. Standing by is Jeremy Larkin with his sidekick. He would be the Robin to his Batman. It is Jesse.
Jeremy: Oh, I like that. I like that a lot.
Jesse: I heard a story about that once. Batman and Robin for one of my sales.
Jeremy: I like that. This is true. This is true.Jesse: It was fun. It was a great story.
Jeremy: The old press release.
Jesse: Bam, boom, bam.
Jeremy: Oh my gosh, you guys, good morning. Jeremy Larkin here. Host of the St. George Real Estate Morning Drive. So happy to have Andy in here with us this morning. Jesse Poll here. Robin. Batman.
Jesse: Good morning.
Jeremy: I do not know who we are, but we are what we are. Hey guys, my heavens, there is a lot going on. This is getting into like epic activity levels here in Washington County. We have the St. George Arts Festival. Does anyone know when the arts festival, I know, but does anyone else know when the St. George Arts Festival started? Does anyone want to venture a guess?
Andy: If they have been listening to my show this morning, they would know that.
Jeremy: Have you been talking about it?
Andy: Yes, we have.
Jeremy: I guess I was not listening. Of course, I was managing children this morning.
Andy: I was in high school when it started.
Jeremy: Really?
Andy: Yes.
Jeremy: 1980. Freshman year.
Jesse: Wow.
Jeremy: Yeah, 1980 they started with this thing. And the history, it originally started on Ancestor’s Square because that was like this little arts village, and Ancestor’s Square has become more of a restaurant zone at this point. But 1980, so we have been cranking it out for a long time. Almost 40 years. That is crazy.
Andy: What year were you born, Jeremy?
Jeremy: 1975.
Andy: So you were 5.
Jeremy: I was 5 years old, and I used to go downtown and I remember it was the old library, which the old library sits exactly where the town square tower is. This splash pad and the tower, that exact, that is what was removed to build town square.
Jesse: That is pretty cool.
Jeremy: And I just remember that so well.

I asked Jeremy to come and see about listing my home. It is an pioneer home, which has been upgraded over the years. It could be a signature home for someone, once it is fixed up. Jeremy was very professional, and gave me some counterintuitive advice: He said if it was his house, he would not list it with him!! That is honesty. We have someone who is interested in buying the home directly. Jeremy could have given me the song and dance, and tried to get the listing. He was up front enough to give me honest advice, which loses him a listing, but which gains him a life long friend and believer. That you cannot get from just any real estate broker. Many thanks to Jeremy for being who he is, someone who values the truth over a quick buck. I wish all of you great success as you put principles over the almighty dollar. THANK YOU!!read more

Jesse Poll has been a fabulous realtor. We started with not knowing him at all as he showed us a home that we determined wasn’t right for us and three hours later we were making an offer on a nearly finished new home that we hadn’t found on our own. Better than that, his responsiveness as we have been 4 hours away and working through the finishing touches on our second home, Jesse is “the perfect realtor” to keep you informed, send you pictures and videos and put up with our never ending questions.read more

We had a great experience listing our house with the Larkin Group Realty Company. They gave us quality service from the beautiful professional photos of our house to staging it to help it look it’s best. Jesse Poll was our agent and I highly recommended him. He helped us every step of the way. He knows his stuff. Our house sold quickly at top dollar and the closing went very smoothly. I couldn’t be happier with the service we got. Thank you Jesse and Larkin Group. Now we are on our way to sunny Florida to be closer to our kids and grandkids.read more

We worked with Michelle Evans when looking for and buying our home and truly cannot say enough good things about our experience with her and her team. She is so knowledgeable about the area and about the whole buying process and was able to provide us with invaluable experience and expertise. She made the whole process smooth and enjoyable and has even stayed in contact with us since we purchased our home last year to make sure that everything is going well. We can’t recommend her enough!read more

I was tasked with selling my mothers house when we put her in a nursing home. I was actually an out of state seller (AZ) when I was told to contact Jesse at the Larkin Group. The sale went extremely smooth & the house sold in 3 days for more than the asking price. This sale went extremely well & I was able to take care of everything from here in AZ while Jesse was the Boots on the Ground person in Utah. My thoughts are if it went this well for me being out of state I would have no problem dealing directly. & would highly recommend him for any real estate transaction.

If you’re looking for a professional organization with the highest level of expertise in the St. George market, The Larkin Group is your best choice. Our property manager referred us to Jeremy and we are so grateful.
Selling our home in St. George could have been challenging since this was not our permanent residence and we literally live across the ocean!
Our transaction was unique in that it was a 4-month contract with very complicated contingencies. Jeremy handled it like a pro and kept his head cool while stress was high for all parties. When you can trust the integrity and commitment of your real estate professionals, leaving the transaction in their capable hands is a blessing. Every step along the way proved to be a pleasant, efficient experience with prompt communication and expert guidance.
We Also want to give a special “shout out” to Jeremy and team for the wonderful community relations and support that was evidenced by some of their activities during the holidays as well as with the COVID-19 challenges. Congratulations to Jeremy and his group for their community involvement and support while taking excellent care of their business and clients!!

We are grateful to find the Larkin Group! Our last agent promised to sell our home fast so we went ahead and bought our new home with him first. After 6 months of double payments we had plenty of time to do our research and called Jeremy. What a night and day difference! Jeremy listened to our situation and came up with a plan. We were impressed so we signed up and they sold our home in a week at the same price. Needless to say Jeremy stepped up to help, didn't take advantage and got us a great result. We just wish we would have called him first.read more

Michelle was a great asset to me when I was going through my move. I was looking in the St. George area, and Michelle was quick to respond to my call, spent time showing me houses in the area that were exactly what I was looking for, and was very professional and efficient. Sadly, I ended up moving to the Provo/Orem area, and she was wonderful to hook me up with a Realtor there, contacted a loan officer for me, looked into different loan options for me, and went above and beyond what I expected or even deemed reasonable. I am so grateful for her assistance. I would recommend her or her team to anyone.read more

We had our home listed with another firm and after insults and horrible service we pulled it off the market. Robert Mcfarlane approached us stated he would get us exactly what we wanted NO exceptions. We were very hesitant but decided to move forward. Though the home had offers they never came to us trying to get us to lower our price. Within a short time we got EXACTLY what we wanted for the home. Robert and his team were very professional through the entire process.
I would only recommend working with the Larkin Group!read more

Jeremy and his team were beyond awesome to work with! They were incredibly communicative, responsive, and helpful with any and all questions we had during the process. The team is efficient and highly effective with their marketing, advertising and ability to get your home on the market quickly. I would recommend them to anyone needing to buy or sell a home - the process was flawless. Even from over 1,000 miles away, Jeremy's team did an outstanding job of closing the sale and sending us the information we needed and wanted. Couldn't imagine selling with anyone else!read more
