About Me
GARNETTE STEPHENS, ABR, CRS, GRI, SRES
KNOWLEDGE EXPERIENCE INTEGRITY
I am a native Memphian and a licensed Realtor since August 1978.
Relocation is my specialty.
I welcome the opportunity to work with foreign national clients and first-time buyers.
My experience, professionalism and caring personal style have made me the Realtor of choice for Buyers and Sellers, most of whom are affiliated with The University of Tennessee Health Science Center, The University of Memphis, and the Memphis medical community including St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, LeBonheur Children's Hospital, and VA Hospital.
Because I treat all my clients like family, put myself in their shoes and treat their money like it was my money, most of my business is referral-based and from repeat clients.
