Jason Smith, Agent
Born and raised in Knoxville, I’ve always felt a strong connection to this community. My early experience working in my father’s home building business gave me a hands-on understanding of homes and a lasting appreciation for quality craftsmanship and design.
Before joining Heritage Realty, I spent over a decade in product and project management, building a foundation in communication, organization, and strategic thinking. Those skills now help me support our clients through the day-to-day operations of property management—ensuring that properties are well cared for and that both owners and tenants feel confident and supported.
As a graduate of East Tennessee State University and a lifelong East Tennessean, I’m proud to bring a local perspective and a practical, solution-oriented mindset to everything I do. I’m also a husband and father of two boys, and I know how important it is to have a place that truly feels like home—whether you’re living in it or managing it for someone else.

Whether previewing a home or preparing to list yours, clients often say it’s like having a professional home inspector by their side. My goal is to put that expertise to work for you—making your real estate experience smooth, informed, and successful.

Kind Words From Our Clients
Patrick Welsh helped us find our new home on the west side of Knoxville and was thoroughly helpful. From first contact at an open house, he listened to us, found us meaningful properties on our short house hunting trip, was always responsive, and adjusted his schedule on a Friday night to help us make a time-sensitive offer on our new house. After the sale, Patrick continued to help with recommendations for contractors who are worth their pay. Patrick is the real deal.

Everyone at Heritage Realty is so friendly and makes the stressful process of looking for rentals smooth and easy! Melissa and Asher helped me find a home that was perfect for me and my pets and you can tell they really care about locals and keeping Knoxville, Knoxville! I am so grateful I had their help with the craziness of the market right now, and truly feel I couldn’t have done it without them. Thank you for all you do!

I’ve rented from Heritage Realty for the last two years and had a very positive experience. The staff have been very accommodating and responsive every time we’ve needed something. All very nice people, and the house is honestly one of the last reasonably priced rentals in our area. I would definitely recommend renting from them to anyone.
