Three people, one family-built approach.
You'll work with a Broker, a nurse-turned-Realtor, and a Navy veteran. Different paths, same commitment — knowledge, integrity, and service in every interaction.
Dennis Jordan
Since 2006, Dennis has been a leading force in Columbia real estate, earning the title of Realtor of the Year in 2017 and helping over 500 families buy and sell homes across Missouri. A proud U.S. Navy veteran, he brings discipline, integrity, and a service-first mindset to every client interaction.
Known as one of the Top Ten Realtors in Mid-Missouri year after year, Dennis specializes in everything from residential homes and condos to new construction, farms, and land. His core values? Knowledge. Integrity. Service.
Mary Jordan
After more than 25 years as a registered nurse and currently serving as a Nurse Manager at a local Columbia hospital, helping people has always been at the heart of what Mary does. With a Master's in Nursing Leadership from the University of Missouri–Columbia and a Black Belt in LEAN Six Sigma, she brings advocacy, project discipline, and data-driven thinking to every transaction.
Dennis and Mary met in 1995 while he was serving in the Navy. Together they've raised four sons — three chose military service themselves. In her spare time, she runs American Jewell Farm, where she raises Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats.
Ethan Jordan
The newest member of Dennis Jordan & Associates. Before stepping into real estate, Ethan served as a Nuclear Reactor Operator in the U.S. Navy — a role that demanded intense focus, accountability, and teamwork. He now applies that same precision to guiding clients through the home-buying process.
Born and raised in Columbia, Ethan grew up as the son of a dedicated REALTOR®. After his honorable discharge, he chose to continue his family's legacy — building trust, delivering results, and ensuring a positive experience for every client.
Three values that shape every transaction.
Built on integrity.
Treat others the way we'd want to be treated — with knowledge, honesty, and exceptional service. Same standard, every client, every time.
Mid-Missouri success.
Over twenty years and nearly 1,000 transactions across Central Missouri. In 2017, Dennis was honored as Columbia Board of Realtors® Salesperson of the Year.

Buying or selling is a major decision. We answer the phone Saturday, Sunday, and every day in between — because your schedule matters.
A name with real roots in Columbia.
In 2006, Dennis and Mary moved to Columbia with their four sons after Dennis's service in the U.S. Navy. The plan was practical — Columbia was equidistant between family in Western Kentucky and Iowa. They quite literally picked it on a map.
What they discovered after settling in changed everything. Dennis's ancestors — the Jewell family — had played a significant role in shaping the city. William Jewell, a former mayor, helped lay out Columbia's early streets, supported the University of Missouri and Stephens College, and went on to establish William Jewell College in Liberty.
The name American Jewell is a tribute to Dennis's great-great-grandmother, America Jewell. It honors the family's patriotism, history, and the many veterans and active-duty servicemembers in their lineage. A name with weight — and the work to back it up.
From Jewell to American Jewell Realty.
Five generations of Mid-Missouri service — long before there was a brokerage.
Proud to serve — both ways.
Two proud veterans of the United States Navy. Now we channel that same dedication into serving the people of Mid-Missouri — helping them navigate one of life's biggest decisions.
