James Harrington
Not Your Average Realtor
Before entering real estate, James spent over 12+ years as a marketing director specializing in digital media, social media strategy, and design. But real estate wasn't just a career move — it was a calling. James felt drawn to a profession where he could steward his business expertise while serving families at life's most pivotal moments. Today, he brings that same servant-hearted diligence to every client, treating each transaction as an opportunity to honor God through excellent work.
Holding a B.S. in Marketing from the University of Tennessee and an MBA from the University of Colorado Boulder, James combines business acumen with deep local expertise. Having called Tennessee home for 35, he knows Nashville, Mt. Juliet, Murfreesboro, and the surrounding communities inside and out — and he's passionate about helping families find not just a house, but a home where their faith, family, and future can flourish.

Faith & Real Estate — A Calling, Not Just a Career
For James, real estate is more than closing deals — it's a ministry of helping families find the place where God is calling them to plant roots. He believes a home is where faith is lived out daily: around the dinner table, in the backyard, at the neighborhood block party. Every transaction is an opportunity to serve with integrity, compassion, and excellence — "as unto the Lord."
James and his family are active in the local community in Murfreesboro. He's passionate about kingdom planting — the idea that where you live isn't just about your commute or your square footage, but about where your family can grow in faith, serve your neighbors, and contribute to the flourishing of your community for God's glory.
Why Work With James?
James understands that buying or selling a home is one of life's biggest decisions — and often, a step of faith. Having lived in seven different states and South America, he knows firsthand the courage it takes to relocate a family. His unique blend of marketing expertise, local knowledge, and a genuine servant's heart means your family gets an advocate who truly cares — not just about the transaction, but about your story.
