Need to Knøw: Alissa Razansky-Robinson
To kick off our interview series we sat down at Nashville’s favorite local hangout, Soho House, to chat with Alissa Razansky-Robinson. A former LA music executive turned Nashville luxury real estate agent.
Armed with incredible knowledge, humor and style, Alissa has mastered her industry in her own unique way. And she’s just getting warmed up.
Take a look at some of our conversation and get to know one of our favorite Nashville realtors.
Tell us a little about yourself, what brought you to Nashville and real estate?
I was born and raised in Los Angeles, Ca. I left LA over a decade ago to marry the love of my life who was already living here in Nashville. At the same time realizing I needed another change so I left behind 17yrs as a music executive managing grammy winning artists to pursue a new career in Nashville Luxury Real Estate. I work with many transplants from LA, NY, Chicago, etc. including an exclusive clientele (celebrities, musicians, executives) from the entertainment world.
Take us through a typical day in your life?
Waking up, feeding the animals, make coffee for my husband, 10 mins of meditation, workout, make a green smoothie, then off to work helping my clients with their real estate needs. A few times a week I make it a point to end my day at the Soho House to attend an event or meet a friend for dinner. My favorite part of the day is taking an infrared sauna, if I have time to sneak one in!
What’s been a pivotal moment in your career?
Selling my 1st multi million dollar luxury home!
How have your own personal experiences and growth impacted your ability to connect with and help guide clients through the home buying/selling process?
Understanding my own stress and emotions has been crucial to understanding my clients needs. Buying a home can be one of the most stressful experiences and my job is to create an elevated experience with little to no stress for them. I keep them focused on the end goal!
What’s the one thing you’ve noticed your clients leave with after working with you?
Equity!
What’s a moment you would relive again?
My wedding day. It was the happiest day of my life.
What’s a gift you naturally have that makes you great at what you do?
Working in real estate is very hard work but very rewarding. You must have hustle, determination, strong relationships and expert negotiation skills to get the deal done. 15+ years of experience working in the entertainment business has given me the skills I need when working with clients. Being from LA myself, I am able to relate my LA transplant clients to Nashville in a way that makes sense to them. I am able to flawlessly bridge the Nashville/LA gap.
What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?
Notice your insecurities and do nothing, just notice and keep moving forward.
What’s the best advice you’ve ever given?
Move away from drama, quick!
What’s something you hope people say about you when you aren’t in the room?
She is a great realtor and a very loyal and giving friend.
Thank you for taking the time to share more about you with us and our readers!
