Why People Love Brentwood Tennessee

Why people love Brentwood Tennessee - When I get asked about it from prospective buyers, I know that they will have a hard time comprehending all that I will tell them so I try to put on my elevator speech. Here are the brief points then I will expand the topics.

Lets start at the bottom since that's the one that doesn't seem to match the rest. With all of the perks of Brentwood parks, schools, libraries, and recreation centers, Property taxes have not been increased in 18 years, yet the Brentwood city budget is always balanced. The average home sold in Brentwood in July was $547,237, and the average property tax for those homes was $3342 per year. The taxes for the same price home in Green Hills are $5723 per year,

 Big lots with trees. Brentwood zoning is 1 house per acre. That doesn't mean each house has an acre lot, even though some do. They have allowed common areas to be part of the calculation. It does prevent the wall of homes you see in some Franklin communities. Privacy is easier to find in Brentwood.

Easy commute to downtown Nashville - depending on where you are in Brentwood, it could be as short at 10 miles to Vanderbilt.

Shopping and Dining - the Cool Springs area just one exit south of concord rd has the best shopping in the state, as well as many great places to eat.

By the way I'm talking about the city limits of Brentwood, in Williamson county. If you step across the county line, everything changes, your taxes go up, your schools become less effective, and depending on how far you go, the crime rate increases significantly. Make sure your realtor knows Brentwood before you make any decisions.
