Lisa Culp Taylor

Real Estate & Rescues

The “I Am Williamson” column features individuals in Williamson County who are known and unknown as staples of our community, doing good, being seen and unseen, and exuding Williamson County. This month, we feature a woman who is a leader, a community supporter and an animal lover. Lisa Culp Taylor works tirelessly to help her clients find their dream home and leads the number one team at Onward Real Estate. When she is not working, she is traveling the world or spending time with her four rescue pets. We interviewed Lisa for our “I Am Williamson” spotlight to learn more about her story and her passion for Williamson County. 

How long have you lived in Williamson County and what makes it feel like home to you?

I am a proud, lifelong Williamson County resident — this community is truly where my heart is. There's a warmth and sense of belonging here that's hard to find anywhere else. Watching it grow while still holding onto its charm and tight-knit spirit is something I never take for granted.

What led you to become a Realtor?

I became a REALTOR® in 1996 and am thrilled to be celebrating my thirtieth year in the business this year. Real estate is in my blood — my father was a REALTOR®, and watching him build relationships and help people find their place to call home planted a seed early on. It turned out to be the perfect fit, and I've never looked back.

Three words that best describe you. 

Knowledgeable, caring and tenacious.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

When I'm not working, you'll likely find me curled up with a good book or planning my next travel adventure — though with a career like mine, trips are a rare and cherished treat. But if I am gone long...I can't wait to get home to my two dogs and two cats, all of whom are rescues. My two cats were actually rescued from an empty lot in one of the communities we're currently selling in, which makes them extra special to me.

Where is your favorite place to go in Williamson County and why? 

I love taking a stroll in downtown Franklin around sunset... it is the golden hour when things slow down, there are less people on the streets and the violinist is playing at the corner of 4^th & Main. It is a special time. And then stop in to enjoy dinner or drinks at Cork & Cow, one of my favorite restaurants. It has the perfect atmosphere — warm, inviting and full of that downtown Franklin charm. Best of all, all of this is just a short walk from our downtown Franklin office.

What keeps you motivated and inspired?

My team is, without question, my greatest source of motivation. Since founding the LCT Team in 2017, watching our agents grow in their dedication to their clients and their craft never gets old. We've grown our team of REALTORS®, supported by an incredible office staff of six that truly makes everything possible — and every milestone reminds me of why we do what we do.

What organization(s) are you involved with and why?

Snooty Giggles Dog Rescue holds a very special place in my heart. They focus on saving animals who are elderly or have faced health challenges in life — the kind of dogs that others might overlook — and I find that mission deeply meaningful. Both of my dogs came from Snooty Giggles, and supporting their efforts is something I plan to do indefinitely.

Finish this statement: I AM Williamson because…  

I truly believe it is "the greatest place on earth." It is home in every sense of the word and I am proud to spend my life here and my career helping families and clients buy and sell in this amazing, friendly and ever-growing community we all call home. Williamson County has given so much to me, and giving back through the work I do every day feels like the greatest privilege. There is truly nowhere else I'd rather be.
