About Mr. Bill L. Jones
Mr. Jones is the primary broker at Accent Real Estate Services, which was founded by his mother, Doris, as Century 21 Accent in 1978. Having initially joined the company in 1981, Mr. Jones took ownership upon his mother's passing in 1999. Over nearly five decades, he has built a reputation as an industry leader in both residential and commercial real estate. Mr. Jones' work focuses on helping clients navigate the complexities of buying, selling and investing in real estate, while also ensuring they are protected from predatory practices.
Before establishing Accent Real Estate Services, Mr. Jones began his career in real estate after completing his education. He was initially recruited by a sales company in Chicago shortly after graduating and worked there before relocating to Brooklyn. In 1976, Mr. Jones returned to Texas to take over his mother's business after she was injured. The decision marked the beginning of his long and fruitful career at Accent Real Estate Services.
Make an Impact on the Texas Real Estate Community
Mr. Jones has had a significant impact on the Texas real estate community, extending beyond his brokerage. He served as vice chairman of the Texas Real Estate Commission from 2011 and has been an active voice in shaping policies that protect the rights of Texas homeowners and investors. His leadership extended to his role as the past chair of the Texas Association of Realtors, where he helped advocate for industry regulations that encourage fair practices. Mr. Jones' extensive knowledge and experience have made him a sought-after expert in residential and commercial development.
In addition to his brokerage work, Mr. Jones has been recognized for his extensive contributions to the field of real estate law. He has served as an expert witness and participated in numerous high-profile cases, providing valuable insights into the legal complexities of real estate transactions. Mr. Jones' expertise has even been called upon at the Texas Supreme Court, where he provided valuable guidance on matters related to real estate law. One of his most notable legal battles involved a 17-year lawsuit that ultimately saw a favorable ruling after the Texas Supreme Court intervened.
Dedicated to Helping Others
Mr. Jones' commitment to helping others extends beyond his professional work. He is actively involved in various community service initiatives, including volunteering with Friends Feeding Friends. He also supports his wife's prison ministry, which helps women transition back into society.
A passionate advocate for others, Mr. Jones attributes his success to his late pastor, who instilled in him the principle of servant leadership. This value has shaped Mr. Jones' career and is evident in his ongoing efforts to support both clients and colleagues in the real estate industry.
Looking ahead, Mr. Jones wants to mentor the next generation of real estate professionals, particularly Lauren Dougles, whom he hired at Accent Real Estate Services. He is committed to helping her grow and achieve success in the industry. With a long history of dedication and service, Mr. Jones' legacy continues through his work and mentorship.
