The Selling Process

Real Estate marketing has changed dramatically since F.C. Tucker Emge and F.C. Tucker Collier’s story began in 1910. Marketing your home then simply meant sticking a sign in the yard and running a newspaper ad. Today things are quite different. Below are some of the services we will offer you during the selling process.

At FCTuckerEmge.com you can view every home for sale in Southwest Indiana.

We will make sure that your home is showcased the best way possible to make it stand out above the rest.
