    About Ashley Hester

    I graduated from Westminster College in with degrees in Business Management and Political Science. Since joining the Columbia Board of Realtors in 2010, I have served as a committee member of Young Professionals Network (YPN) in 2012, and as chairperson of YPN in 2013 & 2014. I have since been heavily involved in the Advocacy and Activism branch of the board and serve concurrently on Government Affairs Committee and Realtors Political Action Committee (Sterling Major Investor & Presidents Circle). I am currently an elected representative to the MLS Committee that decides rules and regulations of the Multiple List Service, Elected representative of Columbia to the Missouri Realtors, and serve on the Board of Directors for both Columbia Board of Realtors and Missouri Realtors. I have had some very proud moments in my years as a Realtor from raising $3,350 for the Boys & Girls Club as a young agent in 2013, netting a client over $75,000 more than "the other agent" by utilizing a unique marketing strategy in 2017. I am active in many organizations outside of business organizations, but my passion is serving on the Board of Directors for Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) that represents abused and neglected foster children in Boone and Callaway Counties. I hold membership in both the Columbia Board of Realtors and the Heart of Missouri Board of Realtors in order to get the most exposure for my clients through multiple MLS's. I am extremely well versed in the market, and with complex loan situations and government programs. I pride myself on being able to come up with a solution and conquer any problem that may arise during the contract to close process-- Embark Group holds a 97% Contract to Closing success rate, meaning that only 3/100 of our under contract homes do not close with the first contract.

    Ashley is the BEST. As a first time home buyer, I have no doubt that I was a lot to work with at times. Ashley never made me feel like I was being a burden. She was extremely responsive and fought to make this happen for me from start to finish. Several homes we saw together, she had my back on, would point out obvious flaws she could see and even called one place "a pig wearing red lipstick" hahaha. She never once tried to push me to make an offer on a home that didn't suit my needs and thanks to her, I ended up buying my home with 3x the backyard I had at my rental, an open concept (in downtown Columbia mind you), updated appliances, beautiful hardwood floors and no landlord telling me what animals I can and can't have for an extra fee all for $100 extra a month than I was used to in rent. Ashley is a real one and puts in serious work. Use her if you at all can, I can't recommend her enough!

    Jules has helped us in deciding what would be best and within our budget. We were stuck on one house and she did all she could to help us get that house which is exactly the house we have now. ?? She is the greatest and very well rounded in all her knowledge and expertise. You should call her... it will be worth it.

    Jules is always quick to respond and can quickly arrange home viewings with short notice. She works hard for us to find homes we may be interested in. She is knowledgeable about the sales process and goes the extra mile to ensure we are getting what we want. We are in search of a home in a wide area and she is helping us to find what we need in a multi-county search.
