When not working in front of or behind the scenes for our clients, Doug, a licensed Boat Captain, can be found somewhere on the Tennessee River. “The water is my Oasis”, says Doug, “Real Estate can be time and emotionally draining as we serve our clients 24/7 and when we get a few hours of free time, the water allows me to regenerate, re-charge, re-energize my mind, body, and spirit!”
"Having been an agent and broker in this market for over 20 years with thousands of transactions either as a direct agent or overseer, I know areas that are strengthening and those that are weakening due to numerous factors that my clients may not be aware of. This could impact each transaction by tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. My experience matters when considering trends, locations, negotiations, investment, and in short and long term return potential. I take my fiduciary responsibility very seriously which means you will come out ahead each and every time." - Doug Lawrence
