What do Clients Say?

Elizabeth helped me Sell my Home for Top Dollar and buy my new Forever Home! "It is with great pleasure that I write this recommendation for my Realtor, Elizabeth Payne. She is an amazing real estate agent, a Christian, and an incredible human being. Not only did she sell my Franklin, TN home for top dollar in my neighborhood, but was successfully found and wrote up a contract that won me my beautiful new home! Elizabeth helped me stage my Franklin home using the items I already on hand, and she knowledgeably guided me through what items to store or get rid of so my home would sell for the best price. She is a great negotiator and was able to work out a deal where I was able to close on my new home 48 hours after selling my existing home. I never had to worry about being out on the street or suffering through the hassle of a temporary occupancy agreement. Elizabeth did a great job advertising my home and when our first contract fell through, she quickly got me back under contract a week later, so I didn’t lose my agreement to purchase my new home. She worked with my mover to make sure they would store my items for 48 hours till I closed on my place. This woman truly goes above and beyond for her clients! She helped with my dog, purchased flowers for my front porch, and did so much to make sure that the whole transition went off with the least amount of stress possible. If you are looking for the best Middle Tennessee Real Estate Agent who really cares and is able to work miracles, then you need to call Elizabeth Payne!"

"My family has known and worked with Elizabeth Payne for many years and we knew she was a person we could trust. We were so excited when she agreed to be our Realtor as well! As new homeowners she helped us to navigate and understand the real estate processes. We appreciated her integrity and gentle patience as we had so many questions because we really did not know much. Her expertise was invaluable and she helped us find a home where after closing we amazingly already had immediate equity. Thank you, Elizabeth for your kindness and caring enough to stick with us to help us find the perfect home!"

"I've worked with Elizabeth and many occasions and she does not disappoint. As a loan officer I get to work with a lot of realtors; Elizabeth is one of kind! She has a strong passion for what she does and does it the right way. If you're looking to sell your home or purchase a new one I highly recommend you give her a call! She sold our Historic Luxury Home for top dollar without us having to do any major or extensive remodeling."

- Donald and Michele Scott, Historic Luxury Sellers and Investors

"Elizabeth has been so wonderful to work with on my search for land and a home. I was frustrated with how hot the market had become and started to think I could not find anything. Elizabeth promised me she would find me something that would be perfect. That she did!!! I live out of state in both Oregon and California and was unable to get out to look and would be buying sight unseen. She took lots of time video taping properties for me to see! She is the best and goes above and beyond all the way through the process. I highly recommend Elizabeth!"

"Buying a Home in Nashville can be stressful, unless you have a Real Estate expert! I was extremely fortunate to have Elizabeth Payne as my realtor. Buying a Luxury home in the Nashville area is very competitive and can be quite stressful. Elizabeth worked diligently to help me find the perfect home while making the process as enjoyable as possible. Her insight into the market was invaluable. To be able to find a home that met all my criteria, was nothing short of a miracle. I’m so thankful to Elizabeth for working as hard as she did to ensure I would be happy with my purchase. I look forward to working with her in the future!"
