Charla Gardner

Hey y’all!! Welcome home! I am so glad you are here! No matter where you are on your journey home, I will meet you there. Everyone has a story and I want to know yours. Finding the perfect home for wherever you are in life is my number one goal.

I have been a resident of Lincoln County for 10 years and have fallen head over heels for the landscape and the community. I would love the opportunity to show you why! Whether you are a first time home buyer, thinking about selling, or simply looking for some insight into an ever-changing market, I want to work for you! Let me show you the best Southern Middle Tennessee has to offer with the excellence of Burt & Co marketing tools and my own passion for providing the best real estate experience to my own clients.

The process of buying and selling a home doesn’t have to feel stressful, confusing, or isolating. Please allow me to show you how exciting and easy it will be when I am working for you! You are Home!

A Local Approach to Buying and Selling

When you work with our brokerage in this part of southern Tennessee, you get a team that knows the land and the people. We keep things straightforward: honest about pricing, clear about timelines, and realistic about what each property offers. Whether you’re looking for a weekend retreat on Tims Ford Lake or a permanent home near the square in Fayetteville, we start with a conversation about your actual needs.

For sellers, we prepare your home with the local market in mind. That means setting a price based on what your neighbourhood has recently sold for, not what you hope to get. We also give you a practical checklist for staging and repairs, so you’re not left guessing. From the first showing to the final signature, our goal is to make the process feel steady and manageable.

Where We Work and What to Know

Lincoln County is a place where roads curve past farmland, and the lake brings its own rhythm. Fayetteville offers a compact downtown with easy access to schools and daily conveniences. Tims Ford Lake has clusters of waterfront cabins and new builds, each with varying dock rules and easements. Lynchburg, with its distillery visitors, enjoys a slower pace and a strong sense of history. North Alabama adds hills, red soil, and a few more choices for commuters.

Before you make an offer, we walk you through the practical details that matter here. We look at flood zones, private drive maintenance, and septic or well conditions. We also help you understand noise, wildlife, and seasonal changes. Since many nearby buyers come from other states, we explain local terms and costs until everything feels clear. That’s what you deserve: a real estate experience that treats your time and money with respect.
