About Derrell Hurley

Derrell Hurley has been a resident of the Lake Fork and Yantis, Texas area for over 35 years. Married for 46 years, he and his wife have raised three wonderful children, deeply rooted in a family tradition of dairy farming, ranching, and rodeo. The Hurley family moved to the area in 1976, settling on a family farm. Before the establishment of Lake Fork, they grazed cattle in the Wolf Creek bottom, and when the lake began to fill, they spent two days relocating their cattle to higher ground.

Derrell spent eight years working at Lake Pointe Church before transitioning to a career in real estate with Freedom Realty LLC in Sulphur Springs, Texas. His passion for helping people led him to this profession, where he assists clients in finding their ideal homes, farms, or lake houses, as well as listing properties for sale.

The county's real estate market is supported by a dedicated network of exactly 99 actively licensed agents, all of whom maintain email contact information, ensuring seamless communication in today's digital-first environment.

Major Hopkins County, Texas Real Estate Markets

Sulphur Springs serves as the county seat and primary real estate hub, anchoring most residential and commercial activity with its established neighborhoods and growing business district. The city's proximity to Lake Fork, one of Texas's premier bass fishing destinations, has created a unique niche market for waterfront properties and recreational real estate that attracts buyers from across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

Como, Cumby, and Tira represent smaller but increasingly important markets within the county, each offering distinct advantages for different buyer segments. Como has seen particular interest from retirees and telecommuters seeking small-town charm, while Cumby benefits from its strategic location along major transportation corridors, making it attractive for those commuting to larger cities while enjoying rural living.

Market Dynamics and Geographic Complexity

Hopkins County's real estate market exhibits surprising complexity despite its rural character, with property values varying significantly based on proximity to Lake Fork, agricultural potential, and accessibility to major highways. The county's mix of working farms, residential developments, and recreational properties creates multiple submarkets that require specialized knowledge to navigate effectively.

Recent trends show increased interest from Dallas-area buyers seeking larger lots and lower prices, driving up demand in previously overlooked areas. This influx has created opportunities for fix-and-flip investors and developers, while also presenting challenges for local buyers facing increased competition and rising prices in what was traditionally a stable, affordable market.

Why Businesses Need Hopkins County, Texas Agent Contact Data

Mortgage lenders, insurance companies, and real estate service providers can leverage the complete email connectivity of Hopkins County's agent network to establish meaningful business relationships in this growing market. With all 99 agents accessible via email, businesses can efficiently introduce new products, share market insights, and build the professional networks essential for success in rural Texas markets.

The county's unique position as both a recreational destination and an emerging residential market makes it particularly valuable for businesses offering specialized services like waterfront property insurance, agricultural real estate financing, or luxury home services. Direct access to the complete agent network enables targeted marketing campaigns and relationship-building efforts that can yield significant returns in this tight-knit professional community.
