Todd Carnes and Todd Lyle have started a new real estate office on North Lake Drive.

Todd Realty Partners is open across from Lexington Elementary School.

Lyle grew up in Lexington and has 18 years of experience in real estate. He is an attorney and serves on town council.

Carnes has been in Lexington over 20 years and is well known as a minister, medical practice administrator and serves on town council.

The 2 have been friends for years and had occasionally discussed a real estate business. Carnes did some land investment deals 5 years ago. That’s when the die was cast.

The firm has 9 agents and are a full service residential and commercial realtor.

They pride themselves on being local and knowing the area well.
