"Rich was relentless in making sure my home was being shown regularly. He is extremely knowledgeable about the process of selling a home and helps you feel at peace as that process can prove to be stressful at times. He worked on a short sale for us for two years and made it happen! He didn't give up! Who does that? Rich will. I would recommend Rich to anyone who wants to know that you have a person who will ensure your goals are met and find you the exact opportunity you're hoping for no matter how long it takes. I'm on Team Rich for life! He's my realtor! " - Shawn

"Rich was recommended to me by my son and Daughter in law, as he had helped them with selling their home in Brentwood. I really needed someone, strong but with gentle humor as well to help me. It was my first time to sell a house without my husband that had died a year ago. He came in and told me what I needed to do in order to get top dollar for my home...had suggestions and a workman that worked for less than other estimates I got...and did excellent work. He staged the house...the living and .. I had my first 3 bids on the house 3 days after he put it on the market, he helped me negotiate...I took the 3rd bid and the house was sold after inspections, etc. in a month! He was always ready to answer my questions and help with what ever small thing I asked. He is .amazing! "

"Rich Kellly is the most tenacious, knowledgeable realtor I have ever worked with by far. He never wavered in his dedication to us during our very difficult personal situation, and still made sure that every detail was attended to throughout the process. His knowledge of how to negotiate with the banks and buyers literally saved us time and again, especially since we were upside down in our house, and weren't sure of how to navigate that. He also possessed a strong knowledge of the mortgage side of our transaction, which was extremely helpful to us. I am so thankful we used him and he "had our " the entire process of our short sale! I would recommend him to anyone needing an intelligent professional to handle their home sale or purchase!!"

"One of the most professional and knowledgeable real estate agents I have ever dealt with. From the first meeting, when he presented the business plan for the selling of the house to the actual sell in about 70 days, he was outstanding. Rich took the time to stage my house from a drab live able house to an amazing showroom that dazzled all that came to tour the house. Rich kept me informed of all prospective buyers and used the Centralized Lisiting for ease of scheduling showings. Since I travel for my job, this was a wonderful time saver for me. When it came to the paperwork, Rich used an online electronic signing website that facilitated the closing of my house. It was a relief to not have to fly into Nahsville to sign a few papers here and there or try and find a computer and fax machine to complete documents. I recommend Rich to all of my friends and have asked them to tell their friends that are selling a house to use him and him only. They will not be disappointed and he may be able to do as good or even better for them. I can sing enough praises for him and his performance as a real estate agent in the Nashville area. "
