What do Clients Say?

Shelby and her team were professional, friendly, candid, responsive, and patient throughout the entire home-buying process. From the very first conversation with her, she listened to what we were looking for and gave us fast, to-the-point feedback. She is an extremely pleasant person, who goes above and beyond to help make the experience and outcome the best it can possibly be.

Shelby is wonderful in so many ways. She was great to work with and also quick to become a friend. My husband and I just bought our first home together and she helped keep us from stressing too much and kept us in check when we started to worry about unnecessary things. Shelby is very professional, extremely helpful, always willing to do whatever it takes to make her clients come first, and most of all, she really cares about helping her buyers find a property they will truly love. Our first place is not only a perfect fit for us, it’s something we can say was worth waiting a few more days to find and Shelby always helped us realize that we didn’t need to jump the gun and that our perfect place was out there just waiting to be found. We were referred to Shelby by a close friend and we would highly, highly recommend Shelby to anyone and everyone!

Kelley Harrell

Shelby was absolutely fantastic to work with. She is professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. I felt like she constantly had our best interests in mind, would answer (or find the answer) to any questions or concerns we had. She made the process go smoothly because of her knowledge and expertise. We love our new home!!

Shelby spent hours organizing and facilitating the sale of my house while I was located in another state. She took care of everything even down to advising the interior paint color to make my house sale ready. Her expert knowledge of the market was unparalleled. Shelby made the process incredibly easy and took extra steps that many other Realtors wouldn't, like coordinating contractors, organizing professional photographs, and a lot more. Shelby was super responsive, and worked well outside normal business hours getting time sensitive documents completed and submitted. Bottom line, Shelby got my house sold for a higher price and in less time than I ever expected. Shelby gets the job done!

Shelby is the BEST!! We were moving from out of state and she always found time for us to go look at houses. Her communication is always clear and concise so you know what’s going on. She is fun to be around and has great knowledge of the East Tennessee area. Finding a home with Shelby at the helm was a blast and an enjoyable experience!

About Shelby

Known for cultivating authentic relationships rooted in genuine connection, it’s no surprise that the majority of Shelby’s business has been built on repeat clients and referrals. Ask anyone who has worked with her, and they’ll tell you that relationship-building is Shelby’s superpower. That’s just who she is.

Leaving a 21-year career in healthcare and marketing/public relations, Shelby quickly climbed the ranks to be in the top 10% of REALTORS® in the Knoxville area. Initially working as the lead buyer specialist on a team (and doing an occasional listing as well), Shelby grew her knowledge base and her business is now more equally divided between buyers and sellers, with an occasional investor added to the mix. The variety is what she loves about her job.

Shelby covers mainly Knox, Blount, Anderson, Loudon, and Roane counties, but will occasionally travel farther if the circumstances are right. In terms of price point, She holds a luxury designation and is very comfortable handling higher-end properties and all the associated lifestyle preferences.

That said, she also loves helping empty-nesters like herself sell their current properties and downsize into their next phase, out-of-area relocation clients settle into their new adventure in Knoxville, and also finds incredible satisfaction out of handing first-time homebuyers their keys at closing.

There’s really nothing buying or selling-related she doesn’t do! While Shelby has netted $65M+ during her tenure as an REALTOR®, it’s her unfailing sincerity that has made her such a highly sought-after agent. She will always be unfailingly honest and truly wants to see clients land in their dream home. More importantly, she will never try to sell you on something that’s just not the right fit for you and your unique needs and wants.

Shelby has lived in Knoxville since 1996, and loves everything about it: how friendly everyone is; the vast options of things to see and do; how the community pulls together when someone is in need; but most of all, she loves that to her, Knoxville means family. She’s raised her kids here and now enjoys empty-nester life with her husband, Tracy (who is also her business partner), and their dog at their home in Hardin Valley.

If you’re looking for a highly conscientious agent who’s every bit as savvy as she is sincere, you’ve found your realtor.
