About Us
How all it started
Jayson Underwood’s journey into real estate began long before Key Estates Properties became a trusted name in direct to seller home buying. Born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee, Jayson developed a strong work ethic and deep sense of community from an early age. After graduating from Xavier University of Louisiana with a degree in Finance, he entered the world of business with both ambition and purpose.
Armed with financial insight, a passion for helping others, and a commitment to integrity, Jayson boot strapped his real estate beginnings by offering real solutions to homeowners seeking a quick and seamless way to sell their properties. He quickly recognized that many sellers were overwhelmed by the traditional market and faced costly repairs, long wait times, and complicated processes. Jayson set out to create a better alternative by providing straightforward offers, honest communication, and a respectful approach that always put homeowners first.
Through discipline, resilience, and word of mouth growth, Key Estates Properties expanded as Jayson built systems centered on ethical practices and long term value. His focus on integrity and moral responsibility helped establish trust in every transaction and positioned the company as a reliable solution for sellers navigating challenging situations.
In 2025, Key Estates Properties reached a major milestone by expanding full time property acquisition operations into Little Rock, Arkansas. This expansion reflected the company’s continued growth and its commitment to bringing the same fair, efficient, and transparent home buying experience to additional markets.
Today, Jayson continues to lead Key Estates Properties with a vision rooted in service, transparency, and community impact. What began as a boot strapped effort to help local Memphis homeowners has evolved into a mission driven real estate company serving sellers across multiple markets.
We’re here to help solve any real estate challenge by offering a fast, fair, and reliable home buying solution.
