Affiliate Broker | Compass Real Estate

Antonia Light Nelson knows what it takes to make Nashville home—because she did it herself. After building a career in New York’s music industry and real estate market, Antonia—an Atlanta native—relocated to Nashville with her family. Being back in the South feels both familiar and intentional, and that perspective shapes how she helps clients navigate their own moves.

A classically trained violinist with a Master of Music Performance from NYU, Antonia worked as a music manager and as executive assistant to the founder of Sony Corporation, managing high-level logistics, confidential relationships, and complex schedules. Today, that translates into a real estate approach that is meticulous, organized, discreet, and calm under pressure.

Antonia specializes in helping relocating families, creative professionals, and Nashville newcomers—as well as local clients ready for their next chapter. She brings insight beyond the transaction: how neighborhoods truly live, where you’ll find your community, and how to settle in with ease. Whether moving across the country or across town, she delivers clear communication, strong negotiation, and a thoughtful, steady presence throughout.

When she’s not with clients, Antonia is exploring Nashville’s neighborhoods, supporting the arts, and enjoying Music City with her family.

 

Success Stories

Antonia was just the right mix of professional, friend, educator, confidante, and guide to get us through the process. Selling a house can come with a lot of doubt and fear, so you want someone who can professionally walk you along, step by step. Antonia did that and so much more. Thank you, Antonia!

Antonia was exceptional from our first meeting. She went above and beyond at every step, including virtual site visits via FaceTime when we were unable to attend in person. We couldn't recommend her more highly.

Antonia is lovely to deal with, attentive, and responsive. She managed to find me an off-market gem. It was delightful to work with Antonia, and I will recommend her to anyone buying upstate.
