Travis Canby

Travis Canby is a nationally recognized luxury real estate advisor and co-founder of The Canby Group. His career includes representing celebrities, high profile executives, global brands, and some of the most sophisticated buyers and sellers in the country. From California to Tennessee, Travis has built a reputation for producing extraordinary results in some of the most competitive real estate markets in America.

In Tennessee, Travis has rapidly emerged as a leading force in the market, known for strategic positioning and relentless negotiation. In less than 24 months of moving to Tennessee, he has already climbed into the top 50 Realtors in the state, a reflection of both the speed of his growth and the strength of the business he has built.

His career was built from the ground up. With virtually nothing, Travis door knocked more than 26,000 doors in his first year, laying the foundation for the discipline and work ethic that still define him today. In California, he operates through AKG | Christie’s International Real Estate, and in Tennessee through Benchmark Realty, serving clients across Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, Nashville, Germantown, Franklin, and beyond.

Long before real estate, Travis learned how to perform under pressure. He rose to the top 0.83% of basketball players worldwide, earned an NCAA Division I scholarship to Kansas State University, and later played professionally in Germany, where he won a championship. After basketball, he built a successful career in medical device sales, negotiating multimillion dollar contracts and working directly inside operating rooms during complex, intense medical procedures alongside leading surgeons. That experience taught him how to remain composed, communicate clearly, and make decisions when the pressure is real. Those experiences continue to shape the way Travis represents his clients today. He is intensely prepared, highly strategic, and uncompromising when it comes to protecting a client’s position, whether that means maximizing the value of a sale, securing a difficult acquisition, or navigating a complex transaction.

Guided by faith and family, Travis works alongside his wife and business partner, Judith Canby, and is deeply devoted to their son Crosby (4) and their two rescue dogs, Charlie and Anonymous. He also mentors other agents, sharing the systems, discipline, and real world experience that helped propel his career to the highest levels of the industry. Travis is currently writing his first real estate book, focused on the lessons, mindset, and practical strategies behind building a successful career from the ground up.

For Travis, reputation is personal. The thought of letting a client down is unacceptable, and that standard drives the preparation, urgency, and accountability he brings to every transaction.

I had a job transfer from Atlanta to Los Angeles and was scared to death. Travis kept me in line every step of the way. He even called up moving companies for me (in Atlanta!) and got the best quote!

The Canby Group recently sold one of my investment properties in Tehachapi California. In my 45 years of experience, this was by far the smoothest transaction I have had when doing a 1031 Exchange.

Travis and Judith are awesome! The whole experience was great, their marketing, knowledge and most of all they're just nice people! We had one open house on a Sunday and the offers (32 offers) started coming in that day we ended up selling the house for $61,000 over list price!

Most agents I've dealt with in the past were very typical agents. Travis was the complete opposite. I've honestly never had an agent work on my property day in and day out. He has a relentless mindset and sold our home for 9k over asking!

OMG! Best real estate agent ever! The sweetest thing they did was leave a bottle of champagne and a welcome card in our new home when we opened the door for the first time. We literally have a soft spot for Travis.

I was absolutely blown away by The Canby Group – I had my home on the market for 6 months with another realtor, then Travis and Judith stepped in and generated for me an offer above asking within days. Their marketing is head and shoulders above the rest.

Travis and Judith are an answered prayer. They sold my great aunt's home in 7 days for over what she wanted. They're just as much about people as they are numbers and are a pleasure to work with.

Being a real estate photographer I meet a tremendous amount of real estate agents. Working with The Canby Group duo, they were ultra professional and a ton of laughs. They made sure everything was beyond perfect for their clients. It's really nice to see agents have a true passion for their work.

I could never praise Travis and Judith enough! When I came to pick up mail I found both in work out clothes and a shovel putting mulch on the bare spots on my yard, trimming the trees and sweeping the decks. All without me ever asking! Their marketing was so good we sold my home 3 days before the first opening house at $15k over asking price! They will be my realtors for life!

I had the pleasure of working with Travis Canby and Judith Lovingfoss when selling my home in Burbank. These Realtors are unlike any I've encountered before, their work ethic and communication is impeccable! They fought daily marketing my property and defending the price. Long story short, they sold my home with a record breaking sale for the neighborhood!

We are so lucky to have met this duo! Being new to LA and home buying we needed guidance, education, and someone trustworthy to guide us. Travis and Judy did that and more. Not only did they help us find an amazing home, but we will be friends for life with them and will always remember how knowledgeable and amazing they were in helping us achieve our goal.

Last year my husband and I started looking for a house that can accommodate our growing family. A friend recommended Travis and Judith so we reached out to them, and I'm so glad we did! We fell in love with them from the very first time we met them and sat down to discuss what type of property we wanted. I couldn't help but notice their enthusiasm and positive energy. All throughout the search process (which took a whole year!) they were always on top of things, always on time, always within reach even though this was a long drive for them. And when we finally found our dream house, they helped us navigate one of the most challenging escrows imaginable. There was not a problem that popped up that they didn't take care of. We ended up buying our dream house and selling our current house in a matter of days.
