Jan Allen, broker/owner of the newly opened Callender Realty has been a highly successful realtor in the Metroplex area for many years. She spent most of her 15 plus years of fulltime real estate sales in Arlington Texas where she was a multi-million dollar producer. Jan won numerous top production awards. From 1986-1993 she and her business partner specialized in the sale of REO properties working with various lending institutions, Fannie Mae, and the RTC. They were awarded Top Team of the Year for the entire Arlington area and in 1991 they closed in excess of 150 properties for the year. Jan has a vast range of expertise from selling single condo units, to million dollar homes, to apartment complexes.
She was born in Big D and raised in the city but always hoped to move to the country. She finally realized her dream in 1998 when she and her husband, Lee, bought land in Bugtussle Texas in Fannin County northeast of Dallas. They built a small cabin on their ranch and enjoy country life that they share with their cows, horses, donkeys, various cats, dogs, and a terrapin named “Terrance”.
Jan and her husband opened a mortgage quality control firm in Bonham in 1998 and serve over 50 lender clients in 41 different states. Mr. Allen is also a licensed mortgage broker.
“Jan is actively involved in her community. She serves on the Bonham Public Library Board, works on various committees for the Creative Arts Center, and was one of those instrumental in helping form the Friends of Fannin County Critters where she served as its first President. She attended college at North Texas in Denton as a music major and still enjoys singing in church and for various community events.
"It is my fond hope that our real estate firm can reach out to all aspects of the community giving the same good service to those in need of their first time small cottage to those who want their ranch estate”.
