Hi there, my name is Kaitlynn! I can’t wait to tell you the story about how I ended up joining the Nashville Home Guru team and why it is the best professional decision I’ve ever made.
I’m originally from Mason, Ohio, a suburb outside of Cincinnati. If you have ever been to the amusement park Kings Island, I could see the fireworks from my childhood home.
Growing up, I always knew that I wanted to do two things in life… One, work in the marketing side of the music industry, and two, sell real estate. I grew up in a household that almost always had music playing and my grandfather was a short term rental real estate investor.
When I was still quite young, I really took an interest in our family’s rental properties. It was during one of our trips to our condo in Myrtle Beach. My grandfather patiently explained what he knew about real estate, and I was all ears. I found it so fascinating how people could use real estate as an investment tool, as well as own properties that they could make memories in for years to come.
After I graduated high school, I decided to stay near my hometown. I attended Miami University of Ohio, where I earned a Bachelors of Science in Strategic Communications and a Bachelors of Arts in Arts Management. After taking my last final exam in May of 2020, I threw the last few things in my U-haul, and moved straight to Nashville. A goal that I had set for myself in middle school. I’ve always loved Nashville because of the range of entertainment options, as well as the diversity of people who visit and call this city home.
Using the customer service and communication skills I had developed working in the music industry and high end retail, I decided to begin my journey in real estate. After passing my exam, I began working as a solo agent, but quickly realized that being on a team was the best fit for me.
Since offically joining the Nashville Home Guru team in June, I can only say positive things about how everyone only wants the best for their clients, as well as their fellow team members. If an agent has a question or needs assistance, someone on the team is always happy to help – no judgment involved. That kind of support system is rare to find. Not only does the team care about the professional success of its agents, but they also care about our personal wellbeing. The team even shows up to support my fiance’s small business, by dining at the Italian restaurant he manages!
There is a reason why this team has proven itself to be so successful. From Patrick’s state of the art CRM system that makes communicating with clients a breeze, to the fantastic work culture, being on this team makes working in real estate a joy. I cannot recommend becoming a Guru enough and I hope to have you join the team!
