David Paine

PAST

I landed in Nashville in 1976, fresh out of grad school with a MA in Architectural History, and began working with the Metro Historical Commission. My job was to help revitalize historic neighborhoods. I cut my Nashville teeth in East Nashville, Germantown, Richland-West End, Belmont and Lower Broad.

I went from there to marketing, where I spent twenty-five years concepting, designing, and writing cool stuff for all sorts of clients – helping them identify their unique brands, and promote their products and services.

Along the way, I’ve done my share of volunteering – mental health, the arts, children’s issues, local government – working to make my small corner of my adopted hometown a better place. I like to help.

PRESENT

It has all led me to ONWARD. I’m wrapping my in-depth experience of the city, my ability to promote and sell, and my concern for people and community into a client-focused, house-positive real estate practice.

I definitely enjoy the people side of this business, but I’m also a lover of all things architectural, so I enjoy the amazing variety of houses I get to work with. Makes no difference what you want to sell or want to buy. Bring it on. I love houses!

Testimonials

Thank you to a "special agent", David Paine. He found us the home we wanted even though it took us 6 months to decide what it was we wanted. His follow-through was so good that we are all still friends. A great experience! We praise him and Village to everyone we know.

I want to thank David for his assistance in the sale of my great aunt’s home. When I became heir to this property, I was overwhelmed with the thought of having to deal with its disposal. Yet eight weeks later, the property was sold – and at a higher than expected price. He made it so painless! Kudos to David! He is a rock star!

David did a great job of selling my house. It was an unusual situation and he was so calm and helpful. He really did his homework, let me know what to expect, and got me the deal I needed...quickly, too! Would highly recommend him.

We made a decision to invest in the future of Nashville by purchasing a rental property. Our priorities were to find a property that would generate monthly income and that was located in a growing area of Nashville. David is passionate about the business, has extensive experience with buying and selling homes, and has experience and knowledge about the Nashville rental market. He understood our priorities and focused our search on homes that clearly met our expectations. We were given frequent updates and were shown the new listings timely. Additionally, he shared his expertise on updating and remodeling options to help us determine the best property to maximize our investment.

I was getting married and needed a bigger house for our blended family that now included five teenagers. I wanted the process to go quickly without any surprises. As a single dad, I didn't have time to do the legwork myself. I needed someone I could trust, someone that I could count on to work their his off to get my house sold quickly at the best possible price. David did just that! Speed to market, an appropriate listing price, and a quick sale. Check, check, check. He guided me along this path like he'd done it a thousand times before. He was both patient and kind, with a needed nudge when I became the bottleneck. He did his homework at every step and made it easy for me. House sold the day after it was listed at an asking price that I was worried was too high, but it turns out it was just right!

If you need a realtor for either end of the transaction, this is your guy. SMART, ETHICAL, WISE, AND CARING – that's what you want for probably the most expensive and important purchase(s) of your life. Can't say enough good about David.

I’ve known David – as friends and professionally – for years and years. He's well-connected, fun, smart, capable and honest, and he knows a lot about neighborhoods and houses. It makes sense that he'd be all about “relationships with clients,” because that’s who he's always been. I highly recommend him!
