Description

Serving you in the Nashville/Middle TN area as a listing agent & buyers agent. As a native Nashvillian I am the key to your perfect home buying/selling adventure specializing in relocation & new const

Maria Holland's About Me Page

One of the most important qualities you find in a good Realtor is being a good listener. Good listening doesn't just involve hearing what one says.  It also involves reading body language, hearing undertones, calculating responses and adding all of those things up to be able to visualize and understand a client's wants and desires in a home. A good realtor will listen, calculate, watch and then ask clarifying questions and listen again.  It is those attributes that set me a  part as a buyer's agent.  In the same way I use some of these same attributes as a listing agent; however, selling a home requires additional skills as well. It requires putting together a marketing plan, determining your target market for the property and then implementing the plans you have chosen. As a native Nashvillian, I am very knowledgeable about the city as well as pocket communities.  Different communities attract different buyers which equates to knowledge coupled with applied skill + right marketing techniques = right buyer for your home. 

I am a realtor that loves my job. I love the people I work with; I love the strategies involved in selling a home, and I love the energy that comes from selling or finding a home for someone.  Strong work ethic, accessibility, good communication skills and a strong knowledge of the market set me a part.  My website is www.mariaholland.net  Check out client testimonies under "about me."  My clients say it best.  Referrals are the biggest part of my income.  My goal is to be able to use every client as a reference.  DEDICATION to you is my top priority.

I do believe in Education.  I currently hold my ABR and GRI which stand for Accredited Buyers Representative and Graduate of Realtor Institute.

Specializations

I specialize in Williamson and Davidson County. Growing up in Brentwood and Franklin and living in working in the South Part of Nashville give me many insights into helping you purchase your home. My highest specialty is remodels and new construction mainly because I have had first hand experience working with my husband as a developer and remodeler.   I would be in charge of many of the subs, meeting with code inspectors and the like.  Not only do I understand the logistics of much of the construction business, I have the vision to see the potential.  If I don't know the answer, I know the contractor to call to get you the answer.  Having many connections in this business can be very valuable. Many clients use me as a free source for help on their remodel. 

In addition, My favorite thing to do in my job is to work with first time home buyers.  They are so fun because they are so excited about their first home.  It is so fun to take them every step of the way through the process.  I get just as excited as they do as I work with them and watch them plan their future as they get closer to their moving date. I personally find this a very rewarding part of my job.

I work all areas of  Metro Nashville and the surrounding communites; however, Brentwood, Franklin, Nolensville, South Nashville, Crieve Hall, Green Hills, Hillsboro Village and Bellevue, West Meade are the heaviest areas where I work.

They Say it Best-What My Clients Say About Me!

Dear Maria: 

I cannot thank you enough for the brilliant way in which you handled my real estate transaction last month.

You made the whole thing simple and sensible and you did so with grace and ease.

Perhaps most important is that you created the environment in which a difficult transaction was made fluid.  Whatever difficulties may have arisen were anticipated by you in such a way as to ease both my mind and my pocketbook in the process of acquiring an absolutely beautiful home. It is with gratitude for the way in which you were able to fulfill our needs and make our transition to Nashville most pleasant.

 With warm regards,

Bud Stone

 

Maria

  I just have to say how impressed we are with you. The attention you have shown our property in the last couple of days far outweighs the attention from our previous realtor in seven months. I am so impressed with your professionalism and dedication to getting our home sold. We just wish we had met you earlier. Thanks again.

 To Whom it May Concern:

This letter comes with a high recommendation for Maria Holland, American Heritage, Inc. My wife and I had the privilege of working with Maria not only as our listing agent, but also as our buying agent. Not only did she sell our current home in less than 60 days, but she also committed countless hours to helping us find the home we were looking for.  Maria's vast knowledge of all areas we were looking in: Antioch, Hermitage,Metro Nashville, Mount Juliet, Murfreesboro, Nolensville & Franklin were essential. She was able to give us valuable information about every piece of property we looked at from neighborhood comps, demographics, schools, & possible commute problems.  One other item I should mention is the fact that Maria has always been accessible. If she does not answer the phone immediately she has always called me back with in a matter of minutes.  It is very hard to find a good realtor in this competitive market, so when you find one you hold on to that person.  Maria will be our agent exclusively for many years to come. If you should have any further questions or concerns, please call me.

Sincerely,

Sean M. Peterson 

 

 Maria,
You have been such a blessing in our lives these past 6 months.
The kind, patient and professional way in which you approach the seemingly endless task of finding us a home, was absolutely inspiring.
Please know that Rob and I will never forget you. Every time we walk in our front door  it will be a wonderful reminder of your  genuine smile  and caring touch.
Thank you hardly seems enough for such a journey as this.
Just know we appreciate everything you have done as a realtor and as Maria.

You are undoubtly an awesome Lady!
Be blessed,
Ann and Rob

 Maria-

 

We just wanted to thank you for all your help in finding us the perfect home. Being a first time buyer, we weren't familiar with everything that went along with purchasing a home and weren't set on using a realtor. You were referred to us and what a blessing! There is no way we could have done any of it without you!

 

I was offered a job in Nashville, but had to find, buy and move into a home within a 4 week time period. From the very beginning, you were extremely helpful and available to my millions of phone calls and questions. You showed us many different areas of Nashville and got a really good feel for what style of home we were looking for. You then found us the perfect one, were able to befriend the seller and represented us better than we could have ever expected. You knew exactly what to look for, what to ask for and how to get it done in a very professional, yet efficient manner. There is NO way we could have found the perfect house, closed within a month, and had peace of mind knowing that all the details were taken care of. You even went as far as to bring your blow dryer and straightener to the walk-through to make sure the electrical outlet glitch in the bathroom was repaired as requested!

 

We are just so thankful! We will certainly refer you to anyone moving into the Nashville area. There is no way anyone should buy a house without you!

 

Thanks Maria for all your help, guidance, suggestions, phone calls, time, patience, energy, knowledge, negotiations and kindness.

Hello Maria, Thank you!  I wanted to take a moment to let you know how much I appreciate your professionalism and knowledge during the recent purchase of my first home.  Not knowing what to expect in the home buying experience, you were always available to answer all of my questions and guide me along every step of the way.  I truly appreciate your availability from start to finish.  I could not have asked for more from my realtor at any point along the way and I can't thank you enough for everything.  I am so happy in my new home!  Many thanks to you Maria and to Rich with Legacy Home Lending. Stephanie ClaycombSpring Hill, TN

Maria, First, I want to thank you for helping us find our new house.  We have only been there a few months, but it already seems like home.  You really listened to our needs and desires, which helped you focus in on the right house for our growing family.  Your experience was invaluable in the entire negotiation process. Second, thank you for your help in the disposition of our old house.  You were always available to us during a difficult project and you brought us a buyer in a uncertain market.  You handled every problem with ease, no matter how large or how small.  I will certainly recommend your services to anyone that I meet and I look forward to staying in touch with you as the years go by.
Thanks again. Lee Black | Associate CB Richard Ellis | Industrial Services 150 4th Avenue North, Suite 2110  | Nashville, TN 37219 T 615 248 1117 | F 615 255 4610 | C 615 347 7877 lee.black@cbre.com | http://www.cbre.com/

Dear Maria,

Tom and I would like to thank you for all of your hard work.  Having an offer on our home in 5 days was awesome.  It took a lot of stress off of us as we approached the closing date on our new home.  We were very impressed with your professionalism and your desire to please us.  We will recommend you to all of our friends and family in the future.

Thanks again for everything!!!!

Dear Maria-

Thank you so much for walking with me every step of the way into my new and first home.  As you well remember, I was full of questions and hesitations, but you went the extra mile to get me all the information I needed to make good decisions. You also spent plenty of time listening to me as I figured out what I wanted and where I wanted to live.  Then you took that information and your knowledge of the Nashville area and found wonderful possibilities for me to choose from.  Once we got started I didn't worry about the details because everyday you demonstrated that you could tend to those details in a professional and flexible manner.  So thank you for working with me to make the possibility become a reality.  Everyone who mentions to me that they are thinking of buying selling a home here is going to hear from me that they need to work with you.

Thanks again,

Judy Skeen

Thanks, Maria.  Thank you for the follow up.  This is one small example of why you are good at what you do and why our experience with you was so positive.  I pointed out something that I did not understand, and you took the initiative to get the answer for me.  That goes such a long way towards "great" client service, and I very much appreciate it.  Thanks for all that you have done for us in the entire home buying process.  You were terrific.

Dear Maria,

We wish to thank you for your excellent work in helping us purchase our new home in Brentwood. You were very attentive to our preferences and needs and only showed us houses that met our criteria.  Further, your vision for many of the accessories, walls and floors beyond their status at the showing was very helpful as we transformed our new purchase into our home.  Finally, you advocated our position in an aggressive manner during the negotiations and ultimately saved us money in the process.  We are grateful for your hard work, honesty and creativity in representing our interest.

Sincerely,

Jay and Melanie Brown
