Deb Short Taylor

For Deborah Short, a love of lakes and the great outdoors runs deep, spanning three generations. Growing up camping, fishing, and water skiing with her parents and six siblings, she continued these traditions with her own children and now enjoys sharing them with her grandchildren on the pristine lakes and rivers of North East Tennessee. Her passion for mountain and lake living makes her the ideal guide for buyers and sellers in the Dale Hollow Lake and Watauga Lake areas.

Deb’s diverse background includes working in the medical field and teaching fire prevention, and she holds a degree in EMT/Fire Sciences with a minor in Foreign Language and American Sign Language. Her lifelong dedication to helping others is reflected in her years of volunteer work, including hosting exchange students and supporting charitable organizations. This same passion for service translates into her real estate career, where she goes above and beyond to ensure her clients find the perfect property.

A licensed real estate agent since 2001, Deb has earned the Million Dollar Club award every year and has built a strong reputation in Middle Tennessee’s real estate and construction industries. Her deep understanding of the region, from its scenic mountain retreats to its waterfront properties, allows her to expertly match clients with their dream homes, whether they seek a quiet cabin in the woods or a lakefront getaway.

At home, Deb treasures time with her family, considering her greatest accomplishments to be her children and grandchildren. She and her husband love camping in their RV, exploring the breathtaking beauty of Tennessee’s lakes and mountains.
