    About Michelle

    Michelle Knutson is a Nashville-based real estate advisor with Compass, known for blending West Coast polish with a deep appreciation for Southern lifestyle and hospitality. After attending Southern Methodist University and purchasing her first investment property in Belle Meade at just 23, Michelle knew Nashville was where she wanted to build both her life and her business.

    Dually licensed in Tennessee and California, Michelle conducts business in both Nashville and Los Angeles, bringing a bi-coastal perspective to her clients. She spent more than five years working in the Los Angeles luxury real estate market, experience that continues to inform her strategic, design-forward, and highly refined approach. Her background in luxury fashion with brands including Chanel, goop, and Paige shaped her polished, discreet, and client-first philosophy. With nearly $60 million in career sales, she serves as a trusted advisor to buyers and sellers navigating both the emotional and financial sides of real estate.

    Outside of work, Michelle can often be found at Red Fox Ranch, hosting friends and clients and enjoying the balance of glamour and grit that defines modern Tennessee living.
