Annette is the best! Annette began working with us while we were still located in Florida planning out move back to Knoxville. She went to onsite meetings for us with builders, facetimed us during walk throughs, and stayed by our side when a few things out of our control fell through. When obstacles presented themselves, she listened to what we wanted and needed and was able to pivot and provide us with other options, and ultimately found us a better home that fit our family’s needs. Annette is without a doubt the realtor you should go with for your home buying/selling needs! You will not be disappointed.

As a first time home buyer, Annette made the whole process very comfortable and easy for me! I was very picky for some of the criteria I wanted for my house, and Annette set up a search that accommodated all of them. She checked in every week or two to make sure I was happy with the search results. Annette is very prompt with responses and getting offers together. We looked at a house in the and had to put in an offer the same day. She pulled together all the paperwork in just a few hours. When I finally found a house I liked, Annette was very helpful in setting up a viewing, recommended a great inspector, and helped negotiate all the terms of the agreement.

Annette went above and beyond in every aspect when I was looking for a house! She always responded immediately, made time to answer my questions or meet in person when necessary, explained all the paperwork thoroughly, and made the process of buying my first home seamless! She is just as personable and kind as she is knowledgeable and on top of things. She doesn’t hesitate to give her honest opinion and looks out for the best interest of her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Annette was truly wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to sell or buy! She is extremely responsive and very detail oriented. The whole process went smoothly. I had several questions throughout the whole process and Annette provided so much information and answered everything and made sure I was aware of everything happening. She truly cares about her clients and you can tell she is very passionate. Hands down the best decision to use her to sell my home. I would recommend her to anyone and will use her in the future as well again.

Annette was amazing in helping us find a home in Knoxville. She was always available and was extremely knowledgeable. It took some time for the seller to get the title in order, but Annette was in constant contact with the title company–she called us immediately with updates. If she said she would call, she called. We were so pleased with our experience that we would recommend, without hesitation, Annette Sydes!

This was the second time Annette helped me find the perfect house! A little over a year ago she helped me find my first home and this time around she helped me find the perfect investment property! You seriously want Annette on your team when looking for a house. She is so on top of things, she’s a great communicator and she works so hard to make sure everyone is happy and the deal gets done! Annette is great at what she does. She’s also a wonderful person and has become a good friend along the way!

Choosing Annette Sydes to help me with my home search and purchase was a fantastic decision! This was the first time I’ve ever purchased a home so I stepped into the process with quite a bit of trepidation, she quickly put my mind at ease. I wasn’t quite sure what I needed and her professional advice helped me narrow my search quite a bit. When I wanted to see a listing she was always on time, and when she says she’s going to do something it gets done. I could not be more thrilled with the level of service that she provided and the professionalism that came along with it. My only wish is that the 5 star rating system allowed me to give her higher praise! Thanks Annette!!!!

Annette was a blessing for me and my fiancé. The one thing that stood out about Annette was her ambition and consitantcy in finding out perfect house. I always felt like she had my back no matter the scenario and I could reach out to her at any point “even now after the purchase” with any concerns I had and she would shoot me straight and do all she could to help me out. She is a flat out go get’er and made the purchase of my first home a smooth and comfortable process. I highly recommend Annette and promise you will not be disappointed!!

Annette was an outstanding realtor from start to finish. As a seller, she gave me great advice on how to present my house for best results including some candid feedback that really paid off. She was always professional throughout the process and communicated well with me as well as with the buyer’s agent and others involved in the process. I would recommend Annette to anyone buying or selling in the Knoxville area without any hesitation.

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Annette was absolutely fantastic to work with! She listens well, is very responsive and efficient with her time, and made the process of selling so much less stressful! We didn’t have to worry about a thing. It’s obvious she truly cares about her clients!
