Lawler-Wood is a leading provider of commercial development and property management services. In 1975, Rodney Lawler and Pat Wood combined their individual areas of expertise to open a comprehensive real estate and development company. Their philosophy was that high-quality work performed with honesty and integrity would generate business through word of mouth. They focused on filling an important niche in the community rather than on building a corporate empire—in fact, their company became known through the years for its responsiveness and lack of red tape. Call up Lawler-Wood and you were likely to get patched straight through to Rodney or Pat, not some mid-level functionary. This approachability, combined with consistently excellent performance, brought the company scores of satisfied clients. Our focus is development and management for business/commerce, education, health care and recreation/leisure. Look out any window in downtown Knoxville, and you’ll see the Lawler-Wood imprint. Our buildings are a testament to the power of hard work and integrity, and we’re proud to be part of the Knoxville community.
