You spend most days focused on the next client, the next contract, the next problem that needs solving.

EXPO is a day to look up.

To step outside your normal routine. Hear something that changes the way you think. Connect with agents you don’t normally cross paths with. Find an idea you can take back and actually use in your business.

That’s what we’re building for October 5.

This year, Leigh Brown will take the EXPO stage with the practical, candid insight that has made her one of the most respected voices in real estate.
And we’re excited to add Marc Davison to the day.
Marc’s work explores something bigger: what makes a business—and the people behind it—mean something. His content will be woven into our opening hour as we talk about who we are as Benchmark, what we stand for, and the role each of us plays in carrying that forward.

And the learning doesn't stop when you leave the main stage.
Our massive EXPO vendor hall brings together businesses and professionals from across the real estate industry—giving you a chance to make connections, discover resources, ask questions, and meet people who could become valuable partners in your business.
If you’ve never been to EXPO, come ready to learn something, meet someone, and leave with something you can use.

Fill a page with notes. Have a conversation you weren't expecting. Steal a few really good ideas. Find a new resource. Meet someone worth knowing.

Then take it all back to your business.

Come spend the day with us.

October 5 | Franklin Marriott Cool Springs | 9 AM–2 PM
Tickets: $49

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Benchmark is proud to have been named one of the two largest real estate companies in Middle Tennessee by the Nashville Business Journal.

We're especially proud because our growth wasn't inherited—it was earned. Built from the ground up in Middle Tennessee, we've grown by staying true to our mission: helping independent agents keep more of what they earn while providing the support they need to succeed.

In an industry increasingly shaped by national brands and Wall Street-backed companies, we're proud to be part of an organization that still believes local leadership, long-term relationships, and serving agents well are what drive lasting success.

Thank you to every Benchmark agent, staff member, client, and community who has been part of this journey. This recognition belongs to all of you.
