Atterberry Auction & Realty Company History

A Family Tradition of Integrity & Excellence


1970

The Beginning

Larry Atterberry Sr. and his wife Judy founded Atterberry Auction & Realty Company with the goal of operating a full-time, full-service auction business. They achieved this goal and the company successfully liquidates real estate, estates, businesses and personal property.

1987

Following In Family Footsteps

Larry Atterberry Jr. joined the family business. After he took ownership of Atterberry Auction & Realty Company, he worked diligently to uphold the impeccable reputation and high standards set by his father to continue the company’s success and provide its customers with excellent service.

2013

Creating Client Experiences

Marla Oglesby became the next great addition to the Atterberry Auction team. She started as a consultant but quickly earned her Missouri Real Estate Salesperson license in 2014. Most recently, she earned her Missouri Real Estate Broker’s license in 2020. As someone who has purchased a house at auction, she is the perfect person to help clients during the real estate auction process.

2019

A New Era of Atterberry Auction & Real Estate

Tim and Crystal Elliott purchased Atterberry Auction & Realty Company with the goals to own a local business, spend more time with their family, and put their years of customer focus and excellent workmanship to good use. Tim grew up in a family business that always stressed great customer service and hard work on a daily basis. He has spent years providing the service and knowledge to customers that the Atterberry's have become known for in the community. Tim and Crystal are proud to carry on not only their own family traditions and ethics, but also the Atterberry Auction & Realty Company traditions of high standards, professionalism, old-fashioned customer service, and integrity.
