“Mitzy has been an absolute pleasure and we could not imagine working with anyone from here on out. She is patient, understanding and supportive. She eliminated all stress and worry of the unknown and kept us informed of every single thing along the way. She spent so much time staging our home to look amazing and doing an open house. She knew the strongpoints of the house and amplified those. Selling a house for the first time is stressful and so much unknown. She is very knowledgeable and explains things in terms we can understand. She supports in our decisions but makes sure we come out the best we can. Our inspection came back and had disappointed us and Mitzy reassured us and addressed all issues and had it resolved. She is quick and efficient. I could go on and on about working with her. But I recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home. She will be our first call everytime!!”

“Our agent, Michael Diniz, was professional and extremely knowledgeable. Simply put, he's the best agent we've worked with. Selling our home had its challenges, but his persistence and urgency allowed our home to sell sooner than expected. I've used a few agents in the past, however, Michael is the only agent I'd refer to friends and family.”

Shelby blends small-city convenience with deep musical roots and sports pride in the heart of Cleveland County. Uptown streets ring the historic courthouse, now home to the Earl Scruggs Center, where exhibits and concerts celebrate bluegrass innovation. Nearby, the Don Gibson Theatre keeps the calendar full of touring acts and community performances, and local eateries turn out barbecue and bakery classics.

Housing runs the spectrum—from historic bungalows within walking distance of uptown to new construction on tree-lined cul-de-sacs—making it easy to find a fit for any lifestyle.
