When I became  licensed in Real Estate in 1980. I really never dreamed that I would make this a lifetime career. I got my Boker's license in 1984.  Selling real estate gets into your blood and it has become a way of life. It offers so many ways to meet people, help people and provide them with information in making one of the most important decisions of their lives. Seeing them find the right home and realizing their dreams gives me such satisfaction. I love selling real estate and hope it shows.

I wouldn't know how to go through one day without talking about real estate. Everywhere I go people like talking about real estate and what is happening in the real estate market. I stay focused on market numbers and trends so I can enter into an informative discussion at a moment's notice. I am known in the community of Clarksville, TN as "The Real Debbie Reynolds".

Over the years I have met many relocating buyers and even sold homes for people I had never met. I help people buy homes virtually and be comfortable with their decisions. This is why a social media presence is so important and why I focus on being internet savvy. My buyers and sellers appreciate it and it makes looking for homes so much easier. I communicate with my buyers and sellers the way they want to be communicated with, through email, text, phone or in person.                                                  

I work with CENTURY 21 PLATINUM PROPERTIES, 2150 Wilma Rudolph Blvd. Ste. 1, Clarksville, TN 37040. CENTURY 21 IS A NAME FAMILIAR TO MILLIONS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES AND ACROSS THE WORLD. IT IS A NAME COMMITTED TO DEDICATION AND SERVICE AND QUALITY AGENTS.

My primary goal is to provide the very best real estate services to my clients and have the satisfaction knowing that they are well served. Whether you are wanting to purchase a home, selling the one you have, relocating out of town, buying investment property or needing a place to rent, I will work hard for you to get you the best deal possible and provide you with the answers to your questions and concerns.

Over the years  I have taught real estate to new agents for more than 35 years. I continue to teach new agents in my company and at my Association. Additionally, I really know the ins and outs of real estate, earned numerous designations in the industry, owned my own company for 10 years but decided to just devote my time and energies to helping people buy and sell real estate and serving my local and state Associations.

I have sold thousands of homes (some of the homes I have sold 3 or 4 times over my career). I have a contractor's license and have developed property.  I was a top producer  Prudential Real Estate Network, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Networks but now I am Managing Broker at Century 21 Platinum Properties. I have continued to earned production awards through the C21 network. Each Century 21 office is independently owned and operated.

 

Happy Clients Make Me Happy, Too.

I also served as a State Director for years 2013 and 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019 to Tennessee Realtors. In 2015 I co-chaired the Business and Facilities Committee and served on the Membership, Education and the Finance Committees. I helped facilitate our Tech University that was such a success introducing technology to our REALTORS in 2014 and again in 2015.

For 2016 I served as Vice-President/President Elect of the Clarksville Association of Realtors and in 2017 served as President of the Association. I am serving as MLS Director for  Realtracs for the years 2018 through 2023. I have served on the Strategic Planning and the Business and Facilities, Professional Development, Membership Engagement, and Leadershihp CAR Committees.

At the 2015 Awards and Installation Luncheon I was awarded the Decade of Achievement Award. What a wonderful honor to be recognized by my peers.


I am a strong believer in continuing education and staying abreast of the changes happening in license laws and the new technology that is constantly hitting the market. For the last year I have served as an Ombudsman to the communty to help resolve situations that might arise between Realtors and the Public. I am continuing  to serve in this role.

What do I do when not selling real estate?

 Debbie Reynolds
Jack, my husband is in the building business building homes and also owns Michael's Pizza, a local pizza restaurant in Clarksville. This works quite well integrating with my real estate business.

We have four grown children, two sons and two daughters. The girls have 4 sons and our oldest son has one son. The 4 oldest grandsons all live in Clarksville TN so we are blessed to have them close by.

Our youngest son, Patrick is in the Navy band and he is an accomplished trombone player. Currently he is stationed at Great Lakes, IL. His wife, Angela is also a talented musician and plays and teaches at the college level. 

My church is First Baptist Church, Clarksville TN and am active in our Sunday School Class where we fellowship with some great people that we love and support. 

We are "Peay Nuts" and support and follow Austin Peay State University Athletics especially the football and basketball programs.

Speaking of Austin Peay State University, we like to take advantage of the music venues available to the public at the Mass Communication Building. These concerts are spectacular and we fell in love with them when our son was attending college there. For a city our size the music is some of the best in the country.

Gardening is one of my favorite things to do but finding time to do it right is difficult with my busy real estate schedule. I also like to read, decorate, write, cook, bake bread and knit and crochet. My husband and I love to explore history together and enjoy traveling.

I love photography and love looking at life through the camera lens and then to see it again on the computer and really seeing noticing the little things in the shot. I could spend the whole day taking pictures.

Our current project on the "bucket list" is visitng all the Presidential Birthplaces, Homes or Presidential Libraries that we can find. We started this in 2010 and are more than 80% through the list. It is such fun to learn about the behind the scenes makings of these  men that influenced our country's history and where we are today. 

Clarksville has some beautiful historic buildings and that works out well to help satisfy my interest in our rich local history and gives me plenty of opportunities for taking some great photography.

 

So what does all this have to do with You? Experience, relationships and knowing the ropes makes your real estate transaction more seamless and smooth. When you have me working for you, you are getting the best representation in negotiating and sound, proven market advice.

Most of my clients refer family and friends to me because they were pleased with the service they received. And I am doubly pleased that they feel like they can trust me to do the same good job again and again. That's what it is all about. Doing it time and time again and making an impact on the local market in a positive way for the good of my clients.

Learning and staying informed abut the real estate industry is evidence by the AHWD, CRS,  E-PRO, GRI, SFR, MRP designations and certifications that I have earned through the National Association of Realtors. In 2012 I added the ePro Designation which focuses and concentrates on marketing through social media. Social media is the way of today and the future possibilities with it are endless. I can't imagine trying to market and sell real estate, reaching people, connecting, and staying in touch without the social media connections.


I have also completed the GREEN Designation training that focuses on those areas that are so much in the news about being Eco-friendly and not hurting our environment. It seems that many of my buyers are concerned with GREEN building and recycling so now I have the knowledge to guide those buyers to better decisions on how to be GREEN. I want to be the best I can be for my clients and that means staying connected and in the know of the latest trends and ideas in the marketplace.

In 2014 I attended the course and received the (MRP) Military Relocation Professional Certification and will use what I learned to better serve my relocating military buyers.

I also earned the AHWD, At Home With Diversity Certification that is training to understand how to treat all buyers from different cultures and situations.

I have also been a member of the National Association of Home Builders I have received the CSP Designation which is a specialty knowing how to sell new homes. On my websiteyoucan learn more about me and search through all the homes available in the market of Clarksville TN and surrounding areas. Click on my personal website to begin your home search now.

Certifications

I have earned many designations and certifications through the National Association of Realtors.

I competed the Accredited Buyer's Representative training that serves the needs of today's buyer by giving the buyer representation in the real estate transaction. 

AHWD- At Home With Diversity is a certification I have earned through the National Association of Realtors. Clarksville TN has a diverse population with our international industries and our close association with Fort Campbell Military Installation and their families.

I completed the Real Estate Brokerage Managers training program.  It focused on better real estate management principles and how to run your business more efficiently. 

CRS-Certified Residential Specialist- First-time home buyers also find that buying a home can be fun and easy because I lay out the process on the front end so they know what to expect along the way. That way they look forward to making the home their home and how they will enjoy it with no worries about what happens next. My ABR and CRS designations show that I have learned valuable information about the home selling and home buying markets and have the tools to help buyers purchase their first homes.

ePro-This Certification is the internet specialist designation given by the National Association of Realtors. What I didn't know is just how much there is to know about the changes in technology and the internet. Since I have been blogging regularly I have been exposed to a lot of the terms and resources available. But we new things coming online every week, it pays to focus specifically on this important part of the real estate industry. Also with the new designation coming, those people that know what it means will recognize a certain expertise in the field of technology and e-business.

I completed Green training given by the National Association of Realtors  This specialization will help me understand green building products, the environment, and how homes and home buying are being affected by government changes. 

GRI- Graduate of Realtors Institute has given me a foundation of learning about what the real estate business is all about and how I can use that knowledge to better serve my buyers and sellers.

MRP- Military Relocation Professional is a certification given by the National Association of Realtors. Living in a military town with Fort Campbell a vital part of our community it is important to be on top of the needs associated with relocating military families. This training better equips me to respond to the needs of the military as they buy, sell, rent, and lease out their homes in the Clarksville TN area.   

SFR- Short Sales and Foreclosure Certification -Many years ago I started working with banks and lenders helping them sell their troubled properties. Throughout the years I aa have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge that helps me sell these properties to investors and owner-occupants. Not all foreclosures are good deals so to learn the ins and outs buyers come to me for the secrets to finding the best properties. My SFR designation gives me the credentials to know the tricks of the trade. I also have a checklist available for these buyers telling them how to make their offer shine in the best light to the banks so they win.

I completed Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES) training which focused on selling in the senior market and understanding the needs of this client base. 


Learn more about my certifications on my website and/or search for your new home.

 

My Market Areas include all of Montgomery County and into the edges of Cheatham, Robertson, and Stewart Counties. I can also help you with some areas of Davidson and Sumner Counties as I grew up there and know the turf.

Having been involved in development and the building of hundreds of homes, I can simplify the steps and make homebuilding a fun experience.

I have sold thousands of homes in all price ranges and can help you too.

She never failed us. She was always there. I have even called her with a question or two after the sale was complete. We had a difficult situation with my husband’s father being terminally ill and we were living in another state. She was wonderful! Took a lot of worry off our shoulders. She was amazing and we have already referred her to others.

Fellow agent Pam

I really enjoyed working with you Debbie. You know your stuff and I hope we can work together on a deal again soon.
Jason and Chelsie
08/31/2012
From my perspective: I just sold a home to some of my former buyers that left the area 4 years ago. Their employment brought them back and they remembered what a pleasant buying experience they had with me as their agent and wanted to do it again. I just love it when I can work with the same people again because they were so satisfied the first time. Chelsie says, “We love our new home.”
Jay and Vanessa
08/30/2012
Met with Sellers, Jay and Vanessa as they were packing out of their home I just sold for them to travel cross country to their new home. Jay said, "I gave your number to two of our friends who really need to sell because you did such a good job for us."
Chuck Biter, CKB Group
08/30/2012
Just sold 2 of my houses in Franklin Meadows. Thanks Debbie Reynolds. It's time to build more.
W. Fuller, investor
08/01/2012
I bought my second rental home from Debbie and again got a good deal. She helps me negotiate to be able to buy in my price range. So I buy cheap and fix them up with some sweat equity and then find a renter. It helps them and me. Plus the neighborhood is being rehabbed at the same time. I’ll be looking for another one when this one gets rented. Thanks Debbie.
