Russ Orlowski was our realtor when we purchased our Knoxville home while living in California. Throughout the entire process, Russ was an accomplished communicator! He listened to our needs and wants, helped us find a home and capably led us along the path to ownership. Most significantly, at each step, Russ provided us with resources and guidance so that we knew we were in competent hands.

My wife and I were left with a disaster and very misused family estate. We asked Russ for his guidance and experience to step in and help with the sale. Proceeding as expected, Russ, offered his expert skill and knowledge. We were able to achieve maximum productivity and with very little expense to position the house for sale. The house was vacated July 15, 2023. we closed August 10. Exceptionally Good if I do say so myself.
Russell's character is one of resplendent form, trustworthy and full of integrity . So very glad to have been able to work with Russ on this sale.
Thank You RUSSO !!!

We absolutely loved working with Russ! He went above and beyond for us at every step of the process. Not only was he incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable, but he consistently made us feel supported and informed during what could have been a stressful time. Russ truly listened to our needs, offered expert guidance, and never hesitated to go the extra mile.

What impressed us even more was that he helped connect us with a fantastic realtor in our new city, ensuring our transition was as smooth as possible.

We highly recommend Russ and would happily work with him again anytime! If you're looking for someone who genuinely puts his clients first, Russ is your guy!

Russell was prompt, helpful, and so knowledgeable. I felt I could trust him wholly, so I didn't have to worry at all throughout this process. I sold my house from out of state, so I was particularly anxious that I'd miss things but Russ didn't let that happen! Can't recommend him enough.

Russ helped me sell two houses in 2024/2025 and I was pleased with both transactions. He communicated every step of the process, made the entire experience as trouble free as possible. I would trust him to help me again and would recommend him if you are thinking of selling or buying as I also bought a property with him almost six years ago.

My husband and I recently made the decision to move from Glendale, AZ back to the East Coast. We explored several cities and connected with a few realtors, and while our experiences were generally positive, everything changed when we met Russ. Russ truly knows Knoxville, and more importantly, he took the time to get to know us instead of just showing us homes to buy. Even while we were still in Arizona, he reviewed several homes we sent him and provided invaluable feedback.

When we arrived in Knoxville for a week of house hunting, Russ was thoroughly organized and genuinely attentive to our thoughts and preferences. After observing our reactions to the first set of homes, he proactively refined our search, eliminating half the options and helping us zero in on the top choices. He offered insightful pros and cons for each property, ultimately guiding us to focus on location. Thanks to his expert advice on pricing and market dynamics, we’ve now been happily settled in our home for nearly three months.

I can’t recommend Russ enough. He’s professional, attentive, deeply knowledgeable about the market, and goes above and beyond to ensure his clients find exactly what they need.

We had a great experience buying our new home with Russell. He showed us all the homes we requested and answered all our questions along the way. He helped us with a local lender and a home inspector to make sure we were making a smart choice. Russell knows Knoxville and the surrounding areas and helped us chose what will be best for our future in our new home and city.

I had the pleasure of working with Russ for my recent home purchase and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Russ is not only knowledgeable and experienced in real estate, but he also brings a level of personal care and attention that is rare to find. He was always available to answer my questions, offer expert advice, and guide me through the process with ease. I highly recommend Russell to anyone looking for a seamless and positive real estate experience.

We moved to Knoxville from out of state, and it can be really difficult to figure out where you want to live when you don't know the area. After our first conversation, Russell understood the type of house we were looking for and the type of area we were looking to live in. We toured the home we ultimately bought, and he made astute observations about things to consider. Russell is very knowledgeable about the Knoxville market, he's sharp, has good contacts for ancillary services, and is very responsive. Russell is everything you're looking for in a great realtor, and I cannot recommend him enough.

Russell was a great realtor for us. He was friendly, professional, responsive, and thorough during our homebuying process. We relocated from Chicago and initially knew no one in Knoxville. Russell is a wealth of local knowledge and provided several great recommendations for a home inspector and other trades people that we needed. Would definitely recommend him!

Russ is by far the best agent in the business. Our journey started with a 4 day visit to the area. Russ was willing to drive us over 400 miles and packed in so many viewings in this short time. Fast forward and we moved to TN and picked up right where we left off. Russ helped us find our perfect home as well as teach us about all the great things to do around town. Russ always responded quickly and made time for us. I’m extremely grateful we found our new home, and that Russ was an integral part of it!

Russ helped me sell my first home, and made the process as painless as possible. I was very nervous to do this, but Russ really helped me feel like I was in control the whole time, and went to bat for me when I needed him to.

He answered every single one of our questions immediately (no matter how silly)!

Couldn’t have asked for a better realtor during these crazy times! :)

My husband and I worked with Russ for over a year. We were in search of a single family home with desires from both my husband and I that seemed impossible to land. His communication via phone, email, and text was always prompt, and he always had time to show us properties around our hectic schedule. Even when they were far out.
He always was knowledgeable about the properties we were looking at, and if he couldn’t answer a question, he would find out the answer. Highly recommend Russ! Yes!!

Russ's ongoing and follow-up communications have been outstanding since Day 1 of our contract with him.

10/10, highly recommend! Russ is a true professional. He is informative, communicative, and supportive through every step of purchasing a home.

He began the process by exploring our wants and needs in a home, then compiled a range of houses that met those needs and constantly communicated new or updated offerings. He is fantastic at noticing subtleties in home offerings and always stood up for our interests.

I can't imagine a better realtor. Without reservation, I highly recommend Russel Orlowski and will absolutely demand his services in the future!

I decided rather suddenly to move to Knoxville from another state. I had no idea what exactly I was looking for in a home and I was completely unfamiliar with this area. Russell was very patient in helping me find something that I really wanted during a time when the market was absolutely insane, and advocated for me when the process to close on the home took some unexpected turns. I would highly recommend him to newcomers and natives alike.

We had used other realtors for our lake lots in Union County with little to no interest from buyers or our then realtor. Russ was up front with us and went beyond our expectations when he sold our lots. He is professional, hardworking, and realistic. All traits that are hard to find in today’s real estate world. Satisfied is an understatement! We would recommend him 100 times over.
