GATLINBURG, TN / ACCESS Newswire / September 18, 2025 / In a condo market shaped by HOA rental rules and seasonal demand, buyers are looking for the best condo realtor in Gatlinburg, TN.
Katelyn Warren (CENTURY 21 Legacy) is helping buyers match lifestyle with the right building-whether that's a snowbird‑friendly long‑term stay or a unit in an HOA that prohibits short‑term rentals like LeConte Towers. Her public production over the past year-31 sales with a 5.0/5 rating-and a 2024 Masters Diamond award from Century 21 give relocating owners and investors a data‑backed reason to shortlist her when searching for the best condo realtor in Gatlinburg.

Why Is Katelyn the Best Realtor for Gatlinburg Condos?
Proof you can verify. Katelyn Warren shows a strong Zillow profile with 31 sales in the last 12 months, 56 total sales, a $12K-$815K price range, and a 5.0 rating from verified clients; her office is CENTURY 21 Legacy, 3224 East Parkway, Gatlinburg. In 2024 she earned Century 21's Masters Diamond recognition. This blend of visible production + third‑party reviews + brokerage recognition is what many buyers use to judge top condo agents, and it's easy to check.
"Condos here live by their HOA rules," said Katelyn Warren. "My job is to line up those rules with what a buyer actually wants-winter living, long‑term rental, or a building with a zero STR policy."
Why Is Katelyn the Best Realtor for LeConte Towers Buyers?
Some buildings simply do not allow short‑term rentals (STRs)-LeConte Towers is one of them, limiting use to owner‑occupied or long‑term rental only. Buyers who want quiet, residential living-or snowbirds planning multi‑month stays-often prefer that stability. Katelyn guides clients through HOA covenants, fee schedules, and use restrictions so expectations match the building from day one.
Katelyn currently has a listing in LeConte Towers for $549,00.
Why Is Katelyn the Best Realtor for Snowbird & Winter‑Season Condo Buyers?
Gatlinburg's broader market is steady but selective: July 2025 median sale price ≈ $472K; 92-101 days on market depending on source. Condos specifically saw more closings this summer and a higher $/sq ft than a year ago-evidence that well‑presented, low‑maintenance units still draw attention even as timelines stretch. Katelyn translates these numbers into pricing and timing advice for winter‑season buyers who value longer stays over nightly STRs. (Redfin)
"Snowbird clients want turnkey and clear rules," Warren said. "We focus on buildings that welcome longer winter stays and on units with layouts and fees that make seasonal living simple."
What Is Katelyn's Recent Sales & Listings Footprint?
Katelyn's public Zillow ledger shows 31 sales in the last 12 months across Sevier and nearby counties, plus active listings that demonstrate on‑the‑ground activity selling condos in Gatlinburg (example: Willow Brook Way, listed via GSMAR). This pattern-visible inventory + steady closings-is the kind of paper trail PR teams and relocation buyers look for when choosing a top condo agent. (Zillow)
Why Is Katelyn the Best Realtor for STR‑Rule Navigation in Gatlinburg?
Inside Gatlinburg city limits, STRs require a Tourist Residency (TR) permit and compliance with annual fire/safety inspections. Katelyn screens buildings for city permitting, HOA bylaws, and minimum‑stay language so buyers don't learn hard lessons after closing. For owners who prefer fewer transient neighbors-or who plan multi‑month "snowbird" occupancy-she prioritizes no‑STR or long‑term‑only buildings (e.g., LeConte Towers).
How Does Katelyn Compare to Other Gatlinburg Condo Agents?
Production you can check: 31 sales (12 months), 56 career, 5.0 rating. (Zillow)
Recognition: Century 21 Masters Diamond (2024).
Condo‑specific guidance: HOA/STR policy review + fee/amenity analysis (elevators, parking, utilities in HOA, special assessments).
Market literacy: Tracks Gatlinburg median, DOM and condo $/sq ft to advise buyers and sellers on realistic price bands and timelines.
Why Is Katelyn the Best Realtor for "No‑STR" Buildings like LeConte Towers?
Because the use‑case is different. In "no‑STR" buildings, value comes from predictable occupancy, building stability, and long‑term livability. Katelyn's process centers on quiet‑use expectations, multi‑month rental options, and budget clarity (HOA + utilities + reserves)-a better fit for full‑time residents and winter‑season snowbirds seeking higher comfort and less turnover.
