David Paine

I landed in Nashville in 1976, fresh out of grad school with a MA in Architectural History and began working with the Metro Historical Commission. My job was to help revitalize historic neighborhoods. I cut my Nashville teeth in East Nashville, Germantown, Richland-West End, Belmont and Lower Broad.

I went from there to marketing, where I spent twenty-five years concepting, designing, and writing cool stuff for all sorts of clients – helping them identify their unique brands, and promote their products and services.

Along the way, I've done his share of volunteering – mental health, the arts, children’s issues, local government – working to make his small corner of his adopted hometown a better place. I like to help.

And it has all lead to Onward Real Estate. I'm wrapping his in-depth experience of the city, my ability to promote and sell, and my concern for people and community into a client-focused real estate practice.

All that, plus this: Life should be fun.

If that sounds good to you, let’s talk real estate!
