I'm originally from the Pacific Northwest, growing up in Everett, Washington. In 1996, I joined the United States Navy and went on to serve our country for 24 years. The majority of my duty stations were right here in South Mississippi, which gave me the time and opportunity to become deeply familiar with the Gulf Coast communities, neighborhoods, and housing market. After retiring from the military, my family and I made the decision to call the Gulf Coast our forever home because of the Southern hospitality and quality of life.
I'm a REALTOR with Stars and Stripes Realty serving Gulfport, Biloxi, Long Beach, Ocean Springs, Pass Christian, and the surrounding communities across Harrison, Hancock, Jackson, and Stone Counties. I specialize in residential sales, first-time homebuyers, military families, veteran programs, new construction, and investment properties.
Being a REALTOR allows me to continue the act of service that defined my military career. I find genuine fulfillment in helping families find their dream homes and seeing the excitement of first-time homeowners. Having gone through multiple military relocations myself, I know firsthand the stresses of purchasing and selling a home, making a household move, and starting fresh in a new place. That experience drives how I serve every client: with patience, clear communication, and a commitment to easing the transition.
I'm known for being prompt, reliable, and well connected in the local market. Whether my clients need a contractor, a lender, or help navigating a remote closing, I have the contacts and the dedication to get it done.
If you have a client headed to the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I'd be honored to take great care of them. They'll get a 24-year Navy veteran who knows this area inside and out, communicates every step of the way, and treats every transaction with the same discipline and dedication he brought to his military service.
"My husband and I had an awesome experience working with Shaun. He is extremely knowledgeable and was committed to helping us find the perfect home and get our current home on the market, which sold in 24 hours. Communication was always prompt and he has a ton of great contacts. I highly recommend Shaun to anyone looking for a professional and overall great realtor."
"Shaun Burkley was my realtor and I could not be more pleased. He had my house in Long Beach under contract in less than a week. He handled all of the negotiations, inspections, and closing for my wife and me because we could not be present. He kept us informed at every step and we could never have had a more trustworthy and reliable agent."
"Shaun Burkley found us the perfect home for our later-in-life years. He kept us apprised of all the steps and checked in with us throughout the entire home buying process. I would recommend Shaun to anyone looking for a home."
When you refer a client to me, they're getting a 24-year Navy veteran who brings military-grade discipline, reliability, and communication to every transaction. I know firsthand what it's like to relocate, buy, sell, and start fresh, and I use that experience to guide every client with patience and care.
I'm prompt, reliable, and proactive with my communication. Clients say I keep them apprised at every step and check in throughout the entire process. Whether the client is local or handling things remotely, I make sure everyone stays informed and confident from contract to closing.
