Meet Jennifer Ledford – Your Hometown Real Estate Agent with Heart

Rooted deeply in the heart of Fort Payne, Alabama, Jennifer Ledford is more than just a real estate agent—she’s a neighbor, a friend, and a lifelong member of this incredible community. A proud graduate of Sylvania High School, Jennifer knows every winding road, familiar face, and hidden gem in and around the Fort Payne area. She represents Ole Heritage Realty with pride, combining her hometown knowledge with a passion for helping families find a place to call home. Whether you’re buying your first house or selling a property filled with memories, Jennifer brings genuine care, dedication, and local insight to every transaction.

Family is at the center of Jennifer’s life. Married to her high school sweetheart, Tim, the two have built a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and Friday night lights. They are the proud parents of three amazing sons—Dylan, Marcus, and Preston. Dylan and his wife, Hannah (Jennifer’s cherished daughter-in-love), recently made Jennifer and Tim first-time grandparents to little Bryer, who has lovingly crowned them “GiGi” and “Papa T.” Middle son Marcus is a hardworking local plumber, and he’s been sharing life and love with his longtime girlfriend Leianna. Youngest son Preston, a senior at Fort Payne High School, shines on the football field and the baseball diamond—keeping the family’s weekends full and exciting.

When she’s not showing houses or closing deals, Jennifer is still pouring her heart into the community through her family’s longtime business, Patterson’s Music & Jewelry, where she’s worked alongside her parents for nearly 14 years. Her passion for people and eye for detail shine in everything she does—whether helping customers find the perfect gift or clients find their perfect home.

Jennifer is driven by faith, family, and a fierce love for her community. She believes that home isn’t just a place—it’s a feeling. And she’s here to help you find yours.

Professional

Awesome experience. Very professional and polite. We love our new home!

Hard Workers!

An agent of Ole Heritage Real Estate was able to get my 1912 farmhouse sold. It was a struggle, but she and her Broker Tina had wisdom and abilities and got it done. Not only did I sell my house through them but bought another. I’m ecstatic after all was said and done. Call these ladies, they’ll take care of your home buying/selling needs. Thank you, ladies, for facing the challenges and getting it done.

Success Story

The Ole Heritage team was fantastic! We listed and sold our family home with them. They made the process easy to understand and as stress-free as possible.

Relocating Worry-free

We relocated from out of state, so trying to see houses only on the weekends was a challenge on our end. Donna was extremely patient, kind & hard working! I would trust her, her judgment & her experience time & time again! Hopefully we wont need her again as she found us our forever home! But happily recommend Donna to anyone needing to buy or sell a home. Donna was & is amazing!!!!

This is our 2nd time using Donna Willingham at Ole Heritage Realty to sell or buy a property. She truly goes above and beyond to get you to closing or help with anything in-between. It’s really refreshing to have someone go to bat for you and show honesty and kindness. We would refer Donna Willingham and Ole Heritage Realty to anyone who wants proper representation through real estate transactions. These ladies know what they are doing!
