Livingstone Management was founded on the belief that real estate can be both profitable and purposeful. Built at the intersection of investment expertise and community impact, we bring over two decades of experience in corporate finance and hands-on property ownership to the Middle Tennessee market. Led by founder P.J. McCarthy, a former Fannie Mae executive and seasoned investor, we provide small-to-medium property owners with the same institutional-grade insight, discipline, and strategy typically reserved for large firms. Our mission is simple — to help investors grow and stabilize their portfolios while creating thriving communities where residents feel at home.

Nashville Property Management Services"When I first moved into a Livingstone-managed property, I expected a typical landlord experience. What I got was a true partnership. Not only are repairs handled quickly and professionally, but the team actually provides resources and information to help tenants like me think about becoming homeowners. Knowing they genuinely care about my future, not just my rent check, makes a huge difference. When I'm ready to buy my first home, I know exactly who I'll be calling for advice and brokerage services."
Nashville Property Management Services"Livingstone Management runs a tight ship. As a busy professional, I need my living situation to be hassle-free. Their portal makes paying rent easy, and when I had a small plumbing issue, the maintenance request was acknowledged and resolved within 24 hours. Their focus on quality property care is evident. It's clear they treat the property as a valuable investment, which means I get a well-maintained, stable, and comfortable place to live. It's the most professional property management I’ve ever experienced."
Nashville Property Management Services"Relocating our business required a landlord who understood our growth needs, not just our square footage. Livingstone Management's approach, driven by deep financial and investment knowledge, made them feel more like a strategic partner than just a property manager. They were proactive during our build-out phase, ensuring compliance and timely completion. Their understanding of commercial property value and stabilization is immediately apparent in their responsiveness and professional oversight, allowing us to focus entirely on running our business."
