Hi! I’m Angela Canady, an experienced Real Estate Professional with 29+ years in the industry, with the most recent as a Realtor in Real Estate Sales. I am currently enjoying serving clients in Nashville and the surrounding Market. Prior to moving to the area, I served clients in the South Florida Market where I am still licensed as Real Estate Sales Agent. My personal and professional goals are to continue to improve upon my skills and knowledge as I complete the requirements for my RE Broker and Mortgage Broker licenses.

My industry background has afforded me the opportunity to develop an extensive skillset to better understand and serve my clients in all aspects of customer service, communication, follow through, and to navigate through some tough negotiations, creating a WIN WIN outcome!

I model my business around the mindset of not helping people buy or sell real estate, but just helping people achieve their goals, whatever those goals may be within the real estate sector, all while building some long lasting friendships along the way.
As a Wife, Mom to 6 Kids (including 3 fur babies) and a Grandma to 5 grandbabies, when I’m not working you can usually find me reading, spending time with my family, fishing, kayaking or doing absolutely anything outdoors.
So if your buying, selling, or investing I am here to partner with you, answer your questions, and work to help resolve any problems that may arise in your transaction.
