My Journey From waste Management To A TOP REAL ESTATE agent for semi-retired professionals Who Want to Effortlessly Navigate the Tennessee Real Estate Market and CREATE Their Dream LIFE
Todd Hasty
Years ago, I found myself starting over in a brand-new place—Smithville, TN. I had just left Nashville, recently divorced, and was stepping into a new life and career. Everything felt uncertain. I didn’t know the area well, and I was beginning a real estate career in a town that wasn’t yet familiar to me.
At first, it was tough. I was learning everything from scratch—meeting new people, figuring out the best spots, and understanding what made this area special. I split my time between helping develop a lake community and selling lake lots, doing my best to build something from nothing. I wasn’t just selling land; I was helping people find a fresh start, just like I was looking for myself.
As I spent more time in real estate, I realized something powerful—buying a home isn’t just about property. It’s about creating a lifestyle. I saw firsthand how moving to a peaceful lake home changed people’s lives. I knew then that I wanted to focus on helping others find that same joy, especially retirees looking for their perfect second home.
Now, with over 20 years of experience, I specialize in helping semi-retired professionals find their dream home on Center Hill Lake. Whether it’s a cozy getaway with a view or a lakefront property with space for the grandkids, I know exactly how to match my clients with a home that fits their next chapter. Working with eXp Realty, I’ve had the privilege of guiding countless buyers toward the relaxed, lakefront lifestyle they’ve always wanted.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the first steps I should take when considering buying a home in Tennessee?
Start by assessing your financial situation, including credit score, savings for a down payment, and budget. Then, get pre-approved for a mortgage to understand your buying power.
Is it better to buy a home in Tennessee or continue renting?
This depends on your long-term plans, financial stability, and lifestyle preferences. Buying can be a good investment and offer stability, but renting provides flexibility and less responsibility for maintenance.
What should I know about the Tennessee real estate market before buying?
Research local market trends, such as average home prices, inventory levels, and the typical time homes stay on the market. This can vary greatly between urban areas like Cookeville and rural regions.
How much down payment do I need to buy a home in Tennessee?
Typically, a down payment of 20% is ideal to avoid private mortgage insurance (PMI). However, there are programs available that allow lower down payments, even as low as 3-5%.
Are there any first-time homebuyer programs or incentives in Tennessee?
Yes, Tennessee offers several programs for first-time homebuyers, including down payment assistance and tax credits. Check with the Tennessee State Housing Development Authority for current programs.
What are the key factors to consider when choosing a location to buy a home in Tennessee?
Consider factors like proximity to work, quality of local schools, neighborhood safety, local amenities, and potential for property value appreciation.
As a renter, how can I prepare for the transition to owning a home in Tennessee?
Start saving for a down payment and closing costs, work on improving your credit score, and begin researching different neighborhoods and types of homes that fit your budget and lifestyle.
What are the average property taxes in Tennessee, and how do they affect home affordability?
Property taxes in Tennessee vary by location. It's important to factor in these costs when determining the affordability of a home, as they can significantly impact your monthly budget.
How do I find a reliable real estate agent in Tennessee?
Look for an agent with experience in your desired area and a strong track record of helping buyers. Ask for referrals from friends or family, or search for agents with positive reviews online.
What are the common pitfalls to avoid when buying a home in Tennessee?
Avoid overextending your budget, neglecting home inspections, ignoring neighborhood research, and rushing into a purchase without proper due diligence. Take your time to make a well-informed decision.
