He has prayerfully built a team of people who are not just honest and professional, but also passionate about serving folks and their Real Estate needs in Sumner County and surrounding areas in beautiful Tennessee.

Amy Hogg - Affiliate Broker
"You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want." - Zig Ziglar
Paul and Amy Hogg spend most of their time raising a family and operating a business that is built on the idea that relationships are paramount and loving people is essential to finding personal joy. These guiding principles have proven effective for them in their personal and professional lives for well over 30 years in the middle Tennessee area and they continue to double-down on that philosophy even in times where personal connections seem to be old fashioned.
Married in December of 2003, Paul & Amy now find themselves with the awesome privilege of raising 3 rugged boys (Ace 16, Rett 14 & Bo 6) and 1 beautiful little girl (Stella, 10).
Melissa Carter - Affiliate Broker
Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Melissa has enjoyed a front row seat as her hometown has evolved into the amazing city it is today.

For the past 11 years Melissa has put that history and knowledge to work for many satisfied home buyers and sellers. Her work ethic and passion for providing tremendous value drives her above and beyond the expectations of her clients.

I am a Christ follower, wife to Roy Puckett, and mother of four amazing boys, now men, plus two wonderful daughters-in-law. The beach is my favorite place to visit, and I love chasing down a good sunrise/sunset whether on the coast or here in middle TN. Building genuine relationships with friends, family, and clients, is my passion! Fitness, reading, good coffee, and photography are also interests of mine. Being a helpful part of others’ real estate journey and establishing solid friendships along the way, while glorifying the Lord, is why I began a career in real estate. I pray that I can be an influential positive impact in my clients’ lives, in the decision-making process, and in the years to follow.
Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.~Colossians 3:23 (NLT)
