Steve Jolly is a full-time real estate broker with Benchmark Realty, LLC, serving buyers, sellers, investors, banks, lenders, and asset management companies throughout Greater Nashville.
With 20 years of real estate experience, more than $133 million in closed sales, 444+ personal sales, and 626+ team sales, Steve has built his career on one simple priority: helping clients make smart, confident real estate decisions.
From first-time homebuyers purchasing their first place, to luxury homeowners preparing a high-end listing, to investors evaluating opportunity and risk, Steve brings a rare combination of market knowledge, negotiation skill, marketing strategy, and practical experience to every transaction.
Steve’s career includes extensive work in the REO and bank-owned property space, where he has helped banks, lenders, hedge funds, and asset managers evaluate, prepare, market, negotiate, and sell hundreds of properties across Middle Tennessee. That background gives him a sharp eye for pricing, condition, buyer demand, market timing, and the details that can make or break a sale.
In addition to his REO and investment experience, Steve also works with luxury sellers who need more than a sign in the yard and a listing in the MLS. His approach combines strategic pricing, professional presentation, targeted marketing, digital exposure, and skilled negotiation to help homeowners create demand and protect their equity.
For buyers, Steve understands that every purchase is both personal and financial. Whether you are buying your first home, moving up, relocating to Nashville, or searching for an investment property, he helps you understand the numbers, compare options, avoid costly mistakes, and find the right opportunity.
Steve is also a past President of Greater Nashville REALTORS®, giving him a deep understanding of the local market, the real estate industry, and the issues that matter most to homeowners and buyers.
His mission is simple: answer your questions, solve your problems, negotiate in your best interest, and help you make your next move with confidence.
My #1 priority is you. Whether you are selling a luxury home, buying your first home, evaluating an investment, or dealing with a bank-owned property, I am here to help you make the right move in Nashville.
