Based in Columbia TN
A Columbia Realtor Who Actually Knows This Market
There are over 200 licensed real estate agents covering Columbia and Maury County. Most of them are based in Nashville and list Columbia as part of a wide service area. I live here. I work here every day. This is my market — not a territory I cover on the way to somewhere else.
I specialize in rural real estate — homes with acreage, farms, hunting land, homesteads, and investment tracts across Southern Middle Tennessee. I know what makes rural property different, I know the right questions to ask, and I know who to call when we need a specialist.
I moved here from Chicago with my wife, who grew up in Tennessee. My own rural property purchase was full of things nobody explained to me — Greenbelt, wells, septic, road access. That experience is why I got into real estate and why I work the way I do.

Common Questions
Realtor Questions — Answered
How do I find a good realtor in Columbia TN?
Look for an agent who actually works in Columbia and Maury County regularly — not one covering it as part of a wide Nashville territory. For rural property, you need someone who understands wells, septic, Greenbelt, and farm pricing. Ask how many transactions they’ve closed in your specific county in the last 12 months. Full guide to choosing a realtor in Columbia TN →
What does a realtor in Columbia TN do?
A Columbia TN realtor helps buyers find and purchase property and helps sellers price, market, and close the sale. In Southern Middle Tennessee specifically, a good realtor also guides clients through rural-specific considerations — USDA financing, Greenbelt tax enrollment, well and septic systems, and agricultural land valuation. The rural expertise is what separates a general agent from a local specialist.
Do I need a local realtor or can I use someone from Nashville?
For rural property in Columbia and Maury County specifically, a local agent makes a real difference. Rural property has value drivers — Greenbelt, water features, timber, access — that a Nashville-based agent may not know how to identify, document, or market. Buyer pools are different too. A local specialist knows exactly who is buying in this market and how to reach them.
How much does a realtor cost in Columbia TN?
Real estate agent compensation in Tennessee is negotiable and varies by transaction. Sellers typically pay commission as part of the sale proceeds. I walk every client through the numbers clearly before we start so there are no surprises. Ask Chris directly →
Can I cancel if I’m not happy with my listing agent?
With the Easy Exit Listing — yes. Cancel anytime for any reason. If it’s before 90 days you cover the actual marketing costs (typically $300–$500). After 90 days, walk away completely free and clear. Most agents lock you into 6-month contracts. I don’t. See how the Easy Exit Listing works →
