"I worked with JD on the purchase of my first house. As a first time homebuyer I had many questions and JD was clear with his explanations and led me in the right direction. I always felt like JD put my best interests first and would highly recommend him for your real estate transactions. Thank you, JD Young."

"J.D. was a referral to us and after our first meeting, we knew we wanted him to be our agent. He was thorough in determining the sales price for our home. We hadn't sold a home in 20 years, so we appreciated the tech and data he had available. At all stages... showing, offer, home inspection, closing, he helped us navigate the process, always giving us choices and never pressuring us to make certain decisions. He was always honest in his opinions and suggestions. We'd definitely use him again and recommend him to friends and family."

"J.D. was amazing! We moved to a new city, not knowing much about the area, and he made the process so easy and comfortable. J.D. 100% had our best interest in mind, and had great communication throughout the home buying process. When it comes time to purchase our next home in the Nashville area, J.D. will be out first call! Would recommend to anyone looking to purchase.

"JD was a huge part of our family's success of buying and selling a home. He's very responsive and extremely professional. There were parts of the process that made us nervous, and he made us feel at ease and guided us through the process seamlessly. Any hurdles we encountered were easily navigated with JD's experience and relationships around the business. He knows when to jump in, but also understands when to step back. While we can say he helped us find our dream home; if we ever need a realtor, we'll definitely be calling JD.


About J.D.
J.D. launched his career in real estate in 2015, building on a professional background of nine years in the Metro Nashville Police Department, K9 Division. J.D. left law enforcement in 2016 to support his wife’s career at Saint Thomas Hospital West and to help raise their three young children.

That same year, J.D. worked daily with a real estate agent to facilitate the family's successful home sale, new home purchase, and relocation across town to be closer to his wife’s workplace and great schools for the kids. During that endeavor, J.D. got a first-hand view of real estate, a career that could allow him to help other families experience home ownership in Nashville.

A University of Tennessee Knoxville graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology, J.D. has always been fascinated by human connection and the countless decisions families arrive at to make life work. Today, J.D. leverages those interests with his ever-growing real estate knowledge, ardent people person skills, and cheerful charisma to advocate for his clients, whether they’re looking to relocate to Nashville from across America or just hoping to sell their current home and move up the street.

Now with Compass and thrilled to work with the industry’s best, J.D. combines seven years of industry knowledge with Compass’s proprietary marketing tech and client-focused tools. He also leverages local connections with builders and developers (giving him a first look at new builds), all so J.D. can represent his clients and ensure their needs are met.

A Knoxville native who moved to Nashville in 2007, J.D. fell in love with Music City on day #1 and has fallen in love with the city every day since. As Nashville has grown from a small state capital to a bustling urban hub and the region’s most iconic cultural melting pot, J.D. has found his calling in helping other families make the 'Athens of the South' their home.

The real estate space may have grown immensely competitive, but J.D. advocates for his clients and understands their questions, concerns, and obstacles. He’s someone who will ensure every family member’s needs are met, down to picking a neighborhood with great schools and a park or playground around the corner.

Someone who asks questions and is genuinely interested in the lives of others and their stories, J.D. connects hearts to homes in a way that few can. Further, he stays in touch with his clients long after a home purchase or sale has been negotiated, ensuring details are covered as clients take their next steps on life's journey.

J.D. lives in Brentwood with his wife and their three children, Evan (9), Grady (6), and Layla (3). The realtor who arrives at showings in the family’s Honda Odyssey minivan and always greets with a smile, reach out to J.D. Young at 615.812.0816 or email jd.young@compass.com.
