Karen Cubberley

We’re **Karen Cubberley and Shelly Gillum**, and before we ever worked side by side in real estate, we were friends. Our friendship has lasted **more than 20 years**, and over the years we’ve shared a lot of life together. That history has created a level of trust, communication, and teamwork that naturally carries over into the way we serve our clients. Our real estate journey has led us to develop a passion for the **Smoky Mountain market**, especially short-term rentals and investment properties, as well as residential homes, new construction, land, and vacation homes. We love helping people discover opportunities in Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the surrounding communities we know so well. Our goal is to continue growing together and become a trusted resource for people looking to **invest, live, or own a piece of the Smoky Mountains**. We want to build relationships with other investors and real estate professionals, continue expanding our knowledge, and help our clients make smart, informed decisions—not simply sell them a property. After more than 20 years of friendship, we’re excited about this next chapter and what we can build together. For us, success means building a business and reputation based on trust, relationships, knowledge, service, and proven results.**
