Sit. Shake. Stay.
That’s The Muttz Way
Dogs are the best, so we take our business cues from them. First, let’s sit down together over a coffee, a cocktail, or a meal and get to know each other. Next, we’ll shake on it and commit to finding you the perfect home! Then, we’ll stay—because at Muttz, you’re not just getting a Realtor; you’re getting a relationship. We’ll stick around to celebrate at your housewarming party, and we’ll be around any time you’re ready to make your next real estate move.
John Zupancic
Principal Broker, Owner, Realtor
John founded Muttz Realty in 2021.
John moved to Nashville, TN in June of 2016 and toured the country as a professional drummer for a year and a half before settling in the city to plant roots with his wife, Alex. When John and Alex purchased their first house, he found a new love in real estate. John got his real estate license in hopes that he could use compassion, relatability, and knowledge to make a huge financial decision a little more realistic and less scary for his clients. After becoming one of the top agents at Partners Real Estate, John realized he was ready to modernize the industry through his own firm, and Muttz Realty was born.

Sarah-Anne Schicker
Realtor
In 2023, Sarah-Anne left the classroom after eleven years in education. While it's been a huge change, she is so excited to be on the real estate path!
After being told that homeownership was unattainable for someone on a teacher's salary and actively combating that misconception, she is enthusiastic about assisting other educators and community advocates in achieving their own home-buying dreams.
I live in Donelson with my two dogs, Willow (12 years old) and Bowie (2 years old). We love being in nature, jamming out to music, and watching all the reality TV. I believe wholeheartedly in social justice and Dolly Parton. Reach out if you're ready to buy, to sell, or to discuss Vanderpump Rules!
