Turning properties into stress-free investments since before Wi-Fi was a thing.
With over 20 years in property management and real estate, Julie Anderson Thacker founded Brick & Mortar Properties to give property owners a partner they can truly trust. Over the years, she has managed thousands of residential units and a wide variety of commercial properties across the Southeast, while also guiding clients through the sales of commercial and multi-family investment properties.
Julie started her career after graduating from the University of Tennessee, managing a small collection of Knoxville rentals. What began as a modest portfolio quickly grew into a thriving business platform, thanks to her dedication to client service, hands-on management, and industry expertise. Today, Brick & Mortar Properties specializes in the management of single-family homes, individual units, and commercial spaces, all with the same personal attention Julie brought to her very first clients.
Known for responsiveness, reliability, and a genuine commitment to client success, Brick & Mortar Properties has built a strong reputation throughout Knoxville and the surrounding areas. As both an affiliate real estate broker and the director of property management, Julie leads a trusted team focused on helping clients maximize their investment’s value—whether through leasing, sales, or ongoing property care. Her approach is simple: provide dependable systems, clear communication, and the peace of mind that every property is managed as if it were her own.
Outside of work, Julie enjoys life in Knoxville with her two dachshunds, Valyria and Dorne—yes, named after the Game of Thrones kingdoms (and yes, they rule the house accordingly). When she’s not working with clients, you’ll likely find her on her patio, soaking up Tennessee’s changing seasons with a cup of coffee in hand and her pups by her side.
