Mitch Moore

REALTOR®

817-219-1684
Mitchmoore@magnoliarealty.com

I spent most of my childhood in Granbury, hunting, fishing, and helping my parents build houses. Every three years or so, we would sell our house and start building a new one. The excitement of finding the perfect lot, land or house, and then planning what needed to be done to make the vision a reality, was always a family affair and fun for all of us. To me, there was never a question if I’d have a career in real estate, the only question was which avenue I’d take. I decided a degree in Construction Science at Texas A&M would give me the opportunity to do both. With that degree, I would gain the knowledge that would benefit both my real estate and custom home clients. After graduating in 2020, I worked for one of the largest home-builders in the metroplex. I wanted to gain some hands-on experience in construction before starting my own business. In the year I was there, I built over thirty-five homes myself, received the distinction of Rookie of the Year and was named one of the top-5 builders within the company. Obtaining my real estate license in 2021, it was time to fully realize my dream. Within the past year, I have sold large land in Comanche and Erath Counties, built the Pecan Ace Hardware, am currently building The Cottages at Pecan Plantation, as well as several customs homes. My wife Casey and I, although both from Granbury, met and started dating at Texas A&M. We have been married just over a year now. She is a great compliment to me, and I am blessed to do life beside her. On weekends, you can find me hunting with my dog, fishing, or spending time with my wife and family.
