I ran out of time to produce an episode for this week. So, I work through if running out of time is a reason or an excuse and then we spiral into the topic of self-worth and I ask my husband to say nice things about me at the end. 

I also mention my sister being an awesome graphic designer, but incorrectly say her IG handle is Hannah Pahl Designs when it's just her name - @HannahPahl

Check out her work on IG.

Meet The Thomas Twins: Parks is proud to highlight a fabulous team from our West Nashville office, The Thomas Twins! Forming in 2018, this team is uniquely comprised of two twin brothers, Elliott and Evan Thomas.

Elliott has been a part of the Parks Family of REALTORS® for 8 years and Evan for 4 years. After achieving great success early on in his real estate career, Elliott reached a point where he was ready to add a team member. It made the most sense to bring on his twin brother, Evan. How could it get any better than basically a carbon copy of Elliott? Having a business partner that offered the same level of customer service, with a similar personality and skill set, was a no-brainer decision.

When asked what the biggest benefit of being part of a real estate team was, Elliott and Evan stated, “The biggest benefit of being part of a real estate team is the opportunity to divide and conquer. The Nashville real estate market is one of the hottest, fastest-moving markets in the country. Being able to have four feet on the ground, four eyes on the market, and four ears to the ground allows us to provide a level of service that puts our clients in a ‘TWINNING’ position.”

The Thomas Twins’ biggest accomplishment has been their 2021 production: 70 transactions totaling $30M in sales. “When we started working together, it was tough. Working with family is hard enough. When one teammate has substantially more experience than the other, it can be even tougher. We are relieved and thrilled to have moved through that season of growth and are excited about what we are building together,” they stated.

When Elliott isn’t helping clients win big, he enjoys hanging out with his partner, Ryan, and his dogs, Buck and Beau. He also loves binge-watching the latest crime docuseries on Netflix. In Evan’s spare time, he enjoys hanging out with his goldendoodle, Django, and his friends on nearby patios with a nice chilled glass of chardonnay in hand. He also serves as as the president of the Greater Nashville Auburn Club and was recently selected as a member of the Auburn Alumni Association’s inaugural “20 Under 40” class.
