April went above and beyond for us as we were out of town buyers and she did video walk throughs, thorough comp analyses, and provided sage advice in the local market. We felt blessed to have had her guide us through the home buying purchase. She is the best!

April is personable, responsive, efficient and thorough. She is intimately familiar with the local market and with buying/selling real estate. She listened closely to our requirements in looking for a house and set us up to receive email notifications when homes fitting our requirements came on the market. When we found one we wanted, we were able to reach her immediately with a phone call - an important asset for buyers in the tight seller’s market that we were in. Homes were being snapped up for $50,000 or more over asking. Praise God, we were able to find one that checked all of our boxes at just $1,000 over asking and it was available in the timeframe we needed it. We trusted April to do a walkthrough and we bought from out of state site unseen. When we finally saw it in person on move-in day we were delighted. Our home, neighborhood and location to shops couldn’t be better. She even found a fabulous real estate agent in our old neighborhood who helped us sell our old house. I highly recommend April and her team!

We were so impressed with April and her team at The Blankinship Group. We were looking for a quick sale as we were moving out of state and April made it happen! She was timely with communication and her seasoned guidance helped us through a view bumps in the process. Her network, knowledge, and marketing make her one of the best realtors in East Tennessee.

April and Steve were amazing. They checked out so many properties for us and sent us videos. We just kept coming back to this one property. She even asked the owner next door if they were interested in selling. April was so easy to work with. Extremely knowledgeable, and went out of her way to help us find the perfect property. I would highly recommend April.

I just happened to find April through a FB group. She was so wonderful to talk to and didn't make my dream of getting my large family moved across the country impossible. She would video tour homes with me which was awesome! Her husband would tell me if a home needed way too much work or if it was just cosmetic things. They were very honest and would show me the neighborhood too. Very responsive and willing to drive anywhere. Their knowledge and skill is what helped secure our home in Tennessee. She was there to walk me through every step and let me know if there were things I needed to complete. She would check on us daily on our drive from California to Tennessee to make sure everything was going well and we were safe. I had a breakdown in the store because it is just a lot of emotions when moving that far. She was on the phone with me in a hot second calming me down and when we met to sign papers I finally met her in person and got a big hug from her. She wasn't just there for us in purchasing the home and signing the papers, she is still there for us 3 years later. She wasn't just our realtor she became a good friend and then became family! I love her and her husband for the amazing work she does and the caring and compassion they put into every client. They are literally the best realtors I have ever had and I will never use any other if I end up selling and buying a different home. They are the absolute best, wish I could give 10 stars!

April was a delight for the family to work with and could patiently explain all of our many questions. She was agreeable to doing any things over and above what another broker would, and she was always agreeable to take the time necessary to get the folks on conference calls, etc., that were needed to keep everyone informed and a part of the process.

I had the pleasure of working with April Blankinship when buying & selling my home, and I can't express how grateful I am for her guidance and expertise. April was incredibly attentive, taking the time to understand my needs and preferences. She was available to answer my questions, whether it was through phone calls, emails, or text messages. She provided valuable insights about the local market and helped me navigate the often overwhelming process of home buying. April is honest and has integrity. When it came time to negotiate, she fought hard to get me the best deal possible. Thanks to April, I found my dream home, and I couldn't be happier! I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You won't find a better realtor!

April and Steve were amazing to work with from start to finish. They were responsive, supportive and went above and beyond for us as we were searching from property and were on the other side of the country. They previewed properties for us and sent video's, they asked the selling agent for details we needed in a timely manner, they made themselves available to us on weekends and late at night. There isn't anything we needed that they did do for us. We purchased land and couldn't be happier. They continue to keep in touch and support us. They are more that REALTORS, they are family to us now! You can't go wrong working with April and Steve. Your life will be blessed with them in it.

April found us a wonderful home when we were still living across the country, prepped us for the move, handled every detail, helped us when we moved to town and needed help finding storage, and even helped us finish selling our old home multiple states away when that deal got bogged down. She is equal parts realtor, counselor, professional photographer/videographer, negotiator, strategist, marketer, and bulldog (when needed!) We don't advise buying a home without seeing it in person first, but that is what we did with April as she filmed the entire walkthrough process for us while narrating the good, the bad, and the ugly. She is thorough, persistent, detailed, and VERY compassionate. She won't sell a home that she wouldn't live in herself, and treats clients as family.

April and Steve were fantastic partners in our home-buying journey. They truly grasped our specific needs while navigating the complexities of purchasing a home from out of state. Their patience in answering our many questions and addressing our concerns about the move was greatly appreciated. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone on the lookout for a dedicated realtor.

April and Steve were amazing! We moved from another state and they helped us navigate the area and share their knowledge. We couldn’t have been more blessed with them! They’re not only our realtors, but became like family to us. Their experience, knowledge, and willing to give us the best possible outcome was amazing. They will forever hold a special place on our hearts because they helped us during one of our most difficult times. We will forever use them for all our real estate needs- and more! We cannot recommend them enough!

We moved here from CA and found April on a TN page on social media. Not only was she very knowledgeable about his area, but she knew what we were going through in our transition as she had already gone through it with her family. She not only helped us find the right home but knew how to handle all of the emotions we were going through. She went above and beyond when we ended up needing a place to stay on one of our trips out to look at homes when our arrangements fell through and found us a hotel in the area to stay in. We highly recommend her!
