For Rachel Dunnaway, real estate is more than a career—it’s a meaningful way to serve others while staying rooted in what matters most: family and community. After becoming a licensed agent nine years ago, Rachel built her business around helping families find a place to call home while maintaining the flexibility to prioritize her own. She finds true joy in guiding clients through one of life’s most important decisions and building relationships that last long after the closing table.
Proudly serving Shelby County and surrounding areas, Rachel is especially connected to the Wilsonville and Columbiana communities where she grew up, went to school, and now raises her family. Her deep local knowledge allows her to offer genuine insight, guidance, and care to every client she serves.
Rachel works confidently across all sides of the transaction, but she especially enjoys the strategy and preparation that go into getting a home ready to list. At the same time, she has a true passion for working with first-time homebuyers, guiding them every step of the way and helping them feel educated, empowered, and at ease throughout the process.
Her business philosophy is grounded in her favorite quote:
“To give real service, you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.”
This belief shines through in every interaction. Whether she’s preparing a home to hit the market or walking buyers through each step of the journey, Rachel’s approach is honest, transparent, and centered on her clients’ priorities.
Outside of real estate, Rachel enjoys spending quality time with her family, traveling, hiking, cheering on her kids at their sporting events, shopping, and even appearing in the occasional background role for commercials and movies. She is proud to be an active part of the close-knit community she loves and is always looking for ways to give back and stay involved.
Above all, Rachel is dedicated to making the real estate experience as easy and worry-free as possible. From navigating contracts to solving unexpected challenges, she offers steady guidance, clear communication, and unwavering support—helping every client move forward with confidence.
