Linsey Lawson, REALTOR® has only been with EXIT Justice Realty since October but shows she fits right in with a heart that mimics that of the entire EXIT Realty Corp. International. Amid the COVID-19 struggles, Linsey wanted to focus on helping local businesses that might be hurting during this time. She met with two locally, family-owned businesses and provided baggies containing hand sanitizer for them to give out to each to-go or delivery order. The response on social media has been extremely positive, reaching thousands of views, while also providing some much-needed support to the businesses and community.
“I wanted the focus to be on the local restaurants, who have always supported our kids at school and the ballpark, always giving donations, fundraising, and anything we have ever asked of them, Linsey stated. It’s a time we need to be there for one another, no matter how big or small.”

EXIT Royal Realty is making the most out of an unusual situation. Last year, they hosted an EGGXIT Egg Hunt that was extremely successful; and this year they plan to continue the tradition, but with a little twist. Participants are coloring eggs and submitting them to the Realty company. In turn, they have participating businesses that will showcase the drawings in their stores, so kids can do a fun, safe egg hunt! There will be daily prizes that will benefit you and our community AND an overall Grand Prize Winner for a FREE 7 Night Trip to YOUR choice destination! It will be valid for a year so you will have time for ALL to settle in the world! Join us as we have fun, help our local small businesses and give away a trip to a deserving family!!

Just days before the influx of nationwide school closures, CDC guidelines, and community spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, Krista Lee, REALTOR®, jumped in feet first to spearhead a massive effort to collect non-perishable food items in support of Feeding the Gulf Coast. An organization that has always been a lifesaver to members of the community is now in overdrive – and Krista has shown up for the challenge.
To kick off the food drive, Krista coordinated with the food bank to deliver donation drums to two locations – EXIT Allstar Realty in Mobile and EXIT Allstar Gulf Coast Realty in Daphne. With the past success of similar food drives at EXIT Allstar, Krista knew that the donations would overflow as agents, business allies, and clients would open their hearts to give. And yet, Krista didn’t stop there. The thought of all the children who depended on schools for breakfast and lunch but would now be hungry weighed heavy on her heart. As the need increased at the food bank, so did Krista’s desire to do more – so with cardboard boxes and a lot of faith, she set off to recruit the help of area hospitals, professional businesses, and retailers. Among those who jumped in to help in a huge way – Walmart on Schillinger Road (Mobile). Her passion for giving what she can with what she has is a true testimony to the human spirit, and reminds us that there is always something we can do.
