Rachel Cornett of CENTURY 21 Legacy
Personal Profile
Moving to East TN was the best thing I ever did for my family 20 years ago. My growth in residential real estate has been bountiful in so many ways. I have always been in some form of real estate since 1993, whether in commercial leasing/property managing high rise office buildings to power retail market centers in Atlanta, GA. Over the years with constant market changes, I have worked with many foreclosure institutions/investor related properties, military seller and buyer relocating service programs and selling/listing high end lake front luxury living homes. Coming from a strong family military background, VA buyers and sellers are top priority. I make sure to keep up with all the VA loan processes for a smooth transaction for my clients. Before picking an agent do your research and you will find record top high ratings on many websites from prior clients testimonials.

We chose Rachel Cornett because her Bio indicated she was familiar with the VA loan process and had worked with other military families in the past.April 2022
Once we expressed an interest in the home, Rachel Cornett did a FaceTime video with us (we lived in TX) within 2 hours. She thoroughly answered all questions we had regarding the home, and an offer was made that evening.
Although our home purchase interactions were conducted from out of state, Rachel Cornett was timely, professional and committed to us as the clients. Additionally, she connected us with another agent in Jefferson County who was able to send us listings on a weekly basis.
Rachel Cornett connected us with Mr. George Francisco for additional home listings in Jefferson County, TN. Mr. Francisco was extremely professional and sent us very thorough listings each week. He also provided tips on the changing status of interest rates. I highly recommend Mr. Francisco as well.
It was a pleasure working with Rachel Cornett. I will certainly recommend her to family and friends for their home buying/selling needs.

In the past 10 years I have bought /sold 7 properties in three different states. By far, this was the easiest most pleasant experience of all. Rachel's support and ideas were wonderful. I ended up selling the property in less than a week for $20,000 more than I had hoped to get for it.

If you are going to buy or sell real-estate in the Knoxville area, you will be missing out if you do not contact Rachel Cornett. Rachel is a true professional. Her knowledge and real-estate ability showed through even during a very trying time with the pandemic. Rachel has been our agent for seven real-estate transactions (buyer and seller) located throughout the Knoxville and Maryville area. Her knowledge of the entire area is unsurpassed. She is forthright, responsive, and timely in all communications. We will never use another agent for our family and highly recommend her to friends and anyone looking for an agent that gets results.

Rachel was our clear choice based on the consistently outstanding service she provided for several previous real estate transactions. April 2020
Rachel's research and knowledge of the market convinced us to put the house up for sale above the asking price we thought would be possible. Result was we ended up with over 10 offers and sold for well above asking.
She is always open, honest and timely in her communications with us. We trust what she says.
There is no other agent for us and we highly recommend Rachel Cornett.

Rachel went above and beyond what I expected from her. She was helping me as an out of state buyer. This required a lot of communication via calls and email. She was always prompt, ready to talk, took care of the details, so I would not have to worry. She didn't stop her services until the very night of closing. She even completed a walk through of the home as a courtesy even though she was not required to do so.March 2020
Extremely professional and approachable. Never appeared to be bothered by update requests, emails, calls, etc. Always willing to go the full mile and more for me.

We had used Rachel on two previous properties. She has proven herself as a very effective agent with great attention to detail. For all of our transactions, she has provided fantastic communications and kept us up to date, sometimes, several times during a single day. We had a contract on this house in approximately 45 days. For a specialty house on the lake that exceeds all expectations. We were figuring that it would likely take most of a year to get it sold. We found out on this last property that we can count on Rachel and that she will go to extreme efforts to ensure that the sale goes through. Without hesitation, we will use Rachel on our next property.August 2019
All of these traits are applicable to Rachel and more. We had a last minute issue come up and I was on an out-of-town business. Rachel's efforts in identifying, determining and implementing a potential solution to the last minute issue exceeded all expectations. When I returned, we just had some physical modification to correct and we were ready for the sale.
Our expectation was to sell our house in 6 months to a year and Rachel got it done in just over 60 days, We were ecstatic were her performance, support, knowledge, expertise, and communications.
The house was listed in MLS with wonderful results. For the first 5-6 weeks, we had multiple showing each week and had a contract in hand at ab out 45 days. Rachel did a great job of getting the contract and amendments to us in a timely manner and ensured that we were aware of pending deadlines of when documents had to be signed and returned. Our house was about an hour drive from Rachel home. She was there every time that she was needed. She was so supportive and I don't know of any time that an inspection or showing was cancelled because she was busy. In addition to a very nice yard sign at the end of the driveway, Rachel ensure that another For Sale signed was mounted on the dock so that folks boating were informed that the property was up for sale.
I don't recall talking with any other staff. Rachel did a fantastic job herself.

I have used Rachel for the sale of 2 homes and the purchase of 2 homes. She is amazing and the most patient and hard working realtor I have ever met. I do not plan on buying or selling again since she has provided my family with the home that we love. BUT if I had to sale or buy again Rachel would be the only realtor I would ever use! Not only is she a realtor but she has become a great friend of the family and I would HIGHLY recommend her to everyone I know!

My communications with Rachel were always prompt. I sent her a list of properties I was interested in on a Sunday afternoon, expecting to hear from her sometime on Monday. I was totally surprised when I got a message from her within a couple hours with appointments already made to look at the houses. She was extremely patient with me ( we looked at a lot of places) and was understanding when I backed out of a contract after the inspection.February 2019
Over the years I have dealt with close to a dozen agents in 4 different states. I have thought their service, for the most part, was perfunctory. Rachel gave me such excellent service I felt I was her only client, yet I know this is not true. She coordinated showings with my trips to Maryville, and actually met with the president of the condo board to show him some of the deficiencies the inspector found, so I didn't have to make another trip. I really appreciated all the help she provided to make this transaction as smooth as it was.
She is only the second agent I've worked with I would feel comfortable recommending to family and friends, and will do so in the future. The whole process, from my original contact with her through closing was just great. She was honest, patient and very knowledgeable.

Rachel did an outstanding job, We we're living in Ca and she worked with my Son a lot and was very understanding about the time difference and she ensured all paperwork was sent to us to meet the deadline in Tn. She changed her schedule two or three different times when we had to change our flight out to Tn. We never worried about information Rachal kept us informed with emails and phone calls. If I ever buy another property I will call Rachel first.

Was out of state for the entire process, Rachel was efficient, and kept me informed every step of the way. She guided me through the steps I needed to take and made it simple.
Her efforts resulted in a quick sale, couldn't be more pleased with the result.
Rachel was very knowledgable, gave me great advice and guidance, was really happy with the entire process.

Rachel did a wonderful job helping my family into our first home! She was incredibly responsive and really went above and beyond. We initially began looking for houses with a short timeline, and were somewhat unsure of what we were looking for. We ended up extending our rental for another year. During that year, Rachel continued to encourage us by helping us focus and hone in on our priorities for a home.September 2018
When our rental agreement was nearing an end (around 9 months later), we began to search again. Rachel was great at picking out houses and incredibly patient with us. Once we found our house, she walked us through the process and made it nearly effortless! The seller was incredibly stubborn, but Rachel worked it out in our favor. (with more patience than I could ever have!)
It has been 10 months in our new home and we still absolutely love our first home! We would definitely recommend her to friends and family, or anyone looking for a highly supportive, greatly resourceful realtor. We will certainly reconnect with any future realty endeavors.
Thank you Rachel!

Rachel is very personable, we hit of off immediately. We 1st were looking for a house in the area, bought one through her. When it came time for us to sell the same house and return to Florida it was just natural to select Rachel to handle the process. We were and are very satisfied with her work ethic and pleased with all she did for us.August 2018
Rachel was more than helpful with the sales process as we had already relocated to Florida, so, everything was done long distance. I'm sure the process was more difficult and she handled it like a pro and a Friend.
Everyone at the office were very approachable in the event Rachel was unavailable, which was seldom.
Rachel was always available via Text, Phone and Email and in person when we were in Tennessee.
I own another house in the area and if or when I decide to sell it I would definitely seek Rachel's assistance in selling again.
My wife and I consider Rachel Cornett a personal friend aside from a business associate.

We have used other brokers for the sale and purchase of homes in the past since moving to TN. Rachel Cornett impressed us early on as one that would really listen to us and work with us in order to get the house we wanted. She was so good and easy to work with when we bought our new home recently that we of course had her work with us to sell our previous home. She understands the area and the market plus has a referral list of experienced professional contractors. Every contractor we sought information from was professional and honest just like Rachel. July 2018
If you want an agent who will work closely with you, take the time to understand what you want for sale or purchase and truly a joy to work with then I highly recommend you contact Rachel Cornett. She will be helping our kids get into their first home.

Rachel sold us our house in a very professional and efficient manner and she did equally well in helping us to sell it. Besides covering all the basic real estate details well, Rachel was especially good in the critical intermediary role during negotiations with our buyer over problematic demands. All of these were resolved satisfactorily. I recommend Rachel's services to anyone doing real estate transactions in the Maryville/Knoxville area.

Rachel Cornet was very helpful to my wife and I, as we are new to the area. We told her the type of home we were looking for and she recommended several areas to look at. When we found the home we wanted to purchase, although we had been pre-approved through a mortgage lender, we had some snags and were eventually told that they could not finance us. At this point Rachel recommended a lender she had worked with before. I quickly sent him some info, and with him and Rachel working together, we closed on our new home in about 12 days. Very much appreciated.

I met Rachael and her husband Scott at a social function. When she told me that she was an agent, I asked her to come and look at my property. I had been considering another agent, but after about thirty minutes talking with Rachael, I asked her to list my house. I have sales people that work for me, and I know what to look for in a sharp salesperson. She was very professional and very knowledgeable.February 2015
I immediately felt that I could trust her with selling my property. She sold herself to me. I knew that she could sell my house. I had to look no further for an agent.
I would recommend her to anyone needing to sell property.
I wish that Rachael worked on my sales staff!
Rachael is a true asset to Century 21, or any business where she would work.

Rachel Cornett was excellent. We had another agent before her with Coldwell Banker who was unresponsive and did not meet our needs. We would definitely refer Rachel to our family and friends. She really worked hard for us in navigating a long and difficult short sale. Rachel was on the ball the whole time and very understanding of our needs. Rachel cares about her job and is really good at it--she was really instrumental in getting us through the process. I would work with her again if given the chance.
