About Marilyn

We may be from Austin, but Franklin stole our hearts. When my husband’s work brought us to Middle Tennessee, we drove down Main Street, past the brick storefronts and church steeples, and just knew. Rolling hills, front porches, real seasons, and a town founded in 1799 that still honors its history at places like Carter House, Carnton, and Harlinsdale Farm. Franklin had all of it. I began my real estate career in Austin in 2021, guiding buyers through multiple-offer situations in one of the most competitive markets in the country. If you’re moving from Texas, I’ve made that same drive. I know the questions that come with it: how property taxes compare, what everyday costs look like here, and how to buy with confidence in a town you’ve mostly seen through a screen. Today I focus on Franklin’s 37064 and 37069 ZIP codes, from historic downtown and Leiper’s Fork to Westhaven, Berry Farms, and Fieldstone Farms. I know these neighborhoods the way locals do, not just from listing data. As a mom of four and a former teacher, I know a move is never only about the house. It’s about your whole household finding its footing. We live by a few simple money principles: make a plan first, stay out of debt, and never buy more house than lets you breathe. I’ll guide you the same way, with honest answers, a plan you can follow, and a careful read of every line in your contract. Your move also gives back. A portion of every commission I earn supports local nonprofits serving children with disabilities, including Waves, Inc. right here in Franklin. Our family knows firsthand how much that support matters. Whether you’re relocating from Texas, outgrowing your first home, or ready for your next chapter, let’s find your “we just knew” moment.
