Testimonials
We love that over 80% of our Business comes from Referrals and Happy Repeat Clients.
We could not speak more highly about Southern Athena. They helped us to purchase and then renovate our 1940's bungalow. Liz had the vision for what our house could be as soon as we walked in, and then helped our dream become a reality. Our house would not be our home without them! Their unique skill set and #1 focus of doing what is right for their customers truly sets them apart.
Homeowner
I’m beyond satisfied and grateful I was able to meet and have Elizabeth as my realtor. I have been trying to open a business for almost 4 years now and have hired over 10 realtors to help me find a building in Nashville. Elizabeth was a game changer. She took care of everything in two weeks. Instead of several months. She always responsive and got things done! I can not express how grateful I am. Thank you Elizabeth, I hope the absolute best for you and your business. You are awesome!!!!
Owner, Artwerks Tattoo Studio
We are so thankful for Elizabeth and all at Southern Athena! From finding our spaces to drawing up the plans and being involved on a daily basis throughout our build out of two businesses, Liz was amazing! Very few people would go over the top to make sure things were done...but she did! It's hard to find anyone with such dedication and desire these days. Should we start another business there would be no question on who we would call!
Partner, Float Nashville
Having worked with many Realtors and contractors in Nashville, I have found working with Elizabeth; she is extremely knowledgeable in her field. She's intelligent, ellegant, sophisticated, yet pragmatic and down to earth. A wonderful mixture of Southern beauty and charm, mixed with excellent business sense, class, and insight. I highly recomend Southern Athena if you are looking to build or buy a home, or even if you're just interested in knowing what your options are for modern updates in your current home.
