About Ben Crawford

My family has deep ties to the Blount County and Maryville area. Our family was deeded farm land by John Sevier which my father still lives on, and we have an amazing historic connection to Maryville College. Over the years, many of my relatives have served the community in public positions. I am honored to continue these ties to our area while following my passion in real estate.

10 Years working in the industry.
Graduated from Maryville College, BA in Business and Organizational Management.
My thesis was ¿The Real Estate Appraisal Process and Current Real Estate Trends in Tennessee¿.
