Helen (Graves) Tammaro | Your Trusted Guide to East Tennessee Real Estate

An East Tennessee native, Helen Tammaro brings an unmatched work ethic and dedication to every client she serves. With more than 30 years of experience in real estate as an agent, broker, and investor, Helen has built her career on a simple idea: people deserve a realtor who actually knows the ground they're standing on — because she's spent three decades standing on it herself.

Three Decades of East Tennessee Real Estate

Helen's career began at a small firm in Oliver Springs, where she learned the business from the ground up. She went on to serve as acquisition agent for an investor firm in Anderson County, then co-owned and brokered her own firm in Campbell County for many years. Today, Helen brings that full spectrum of experience — as agent, broker, and investor — to the people of Roane County and the surrounding area. Few agents in this region can match that depth of hands-on experience across so many roles in the industry.

A Realtor for Every Kind of Client

Over the course of her career, Helen has guided clients through nearly every kind of transaction imaginable: first-time buyers nervous about their first offer, retirees downsizing into something more manageable, growing families in need of more room, investors looking to add to their portfolio, and sellers in small towns who want an agent who understands what makes their community special. Some clients come to her looking for a luxury home with room to entertain; others want a modest, well-built house in a quiet neighborhood. Helen treats each search with the same seriousness and care, because to the person on the other end, it's never just a transaction — it's their next chapter.

Local Knowledge, Honestly Applied

Three decades in this business, across three different counties, has given Helen a rare depth of local knowledge — from the small-town character of places like Oliver Springs and Clinton to the growth happening around Kingston and the wider Knoxville area. She understands the details that matter in different kinds of transactions, whether that's evaluating a historic downtown property, structuring an investment deal, or helping a family compare neighborhoods for schools and commute times. That range means her clients get advice grounded in real experience, not a one-size-fits-all sales pitch.

A Partner You Can Count On

From the first conversation to the final walk-through, Helen is known for being responsive, straightforward, and genuinely invested in getting her clients the right outcome — not just a fast one. Her local relationships, market knowledge, and negotiation experience mean clients have someone in their corner who understands both the numbers and the community.

Service Before Self

Helen is a proud veteran of the U.S. Army, and that same sense of service carries into everything she does — for her clients and her community. When she's not helping clients buy or sell, Helen enjoys supporting veteran organizations, spending time with her children and grandchildren, traveling, and scuba diving.

If you're ready to buy or sell anywhere across East Tennessee, Helen would love to help you get there.
