About Vanessa Ponder, #375892

I'm not just your Realtor®, I'm your champion in the real estate game. While many agents navigate contracts and negotiations, my expertise runs deeper. With nearly 9 years of experience as a title and escrow agent, I have a breadth and depth of knowledge surrounding the closing process that sets me apart from your average Realtor®. Add to that my decade of legal experience and education, and you can rest assured that I see the fine print that others often miss, ensuring that every step you take with me as your guide is secure, informed, and advocating for your best interest.

As an East Tennessee resident for over 35 years, I am always excited to share with my clients all of the wonderful features this area has to offer! Our "scruffy little city" of Knoxville is truly a metropolitan gem with all of the amenities of a larger city, but with the feel of a small town. If city life isn't your speed, the areas surrounding Knoxville, scattered throughout the East Tennessee Valley and bordering the Great Smoky Mountains, will appeal to those looking for a more laid-back lifestyle. With an abundance of peaceful, tight-knit communities nestled among our beautiful, expansive natural landscapes, it is easy to see why East Tennessee is a place called HOME for everyone. 

My legal and title background is your shield, but my passion is guiding you to your perfect home! Whether you're a seasoned seller or a first-time buyer, I weave meticulous attention to detail with a genuine dedication to your needs. If you're moving to our area, I am your established resident expert on all things East Tennessee! And if you are moving out of our area, my decades of professional and personal connections developed in this community are a powerful tool to leverage in marketing and selling your property to prospective buyers. As an associate with Wallace Real Estate, I can help you get settled into your new destination as well! With our membership in the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, our brokerage has access to a network of over 136,000 real estate agents across 70 countries all over the globe! If you have a need, I have an arsenal of resources at my disposal to address it, and my service-minded approach ensures that you are supported every step of the way. My goal is not just a sale, but a seamless, empowering experience that leaves you feeling confident and excited about your next chapter! 

But beneath the sharp negotiation skills and dedication to excellence, you'll find a true human connection. I'm a wife, a mom, and a breast cancer survivor - life's journey has instilled in me resilience, empathy, and an unwavering belief in the power of home. My personal commitment to my clients is that I will always act with integrity, hold your best interests paramount, communicate proactively and often so that I always make sure you understand the process, leverage every tool and technology at my disposal for your benefit, and advocate for YOU, the person, not just the transaction. When you work with me, you get more than just an expert, but a trusted friend who truly understands the emotions wrapped up in every brick and mortar.

Ready to find your perfect match? Let's embark on this journey together. Contact me today, and let me put my expertise, passion, and genuine care to work for you!
