Episode 11 - Gravel, Grit, and Real Estate: The Jackson Journey of Dallis Ketchum

In Episode 11, Matt sits down with Memphis native, Ole Miss alum, and Jackson community builder Dallis Ketchum. What began as a career path in medicine transformed into a deep dive into the rhythms of human movement, property, and place. Dallis shares how his sociology background, paramedic days, and a timely entry into real estate in 2005 all collided to shape a unique career rooted in resilience and vision.

 

From weathering the 2008 recession to co-founding NeighborHouse and JXN Housing, Dallis has done more than earn a license—he’s earned the wisdom that comes from investing, losing, and rebuilding in the very neighborhoods he serves today. Beyond real estate, Dallis talks about his heart for community, his love of endurance sports, and the creation of the Belhaven Mountain Bike Trail, which is fast becoming a local gem.

 

This episode is a conversation about passion, place, and purpose—with a little smoke from the Big Green Egg along the way.
