In the heart of North Alabama’s burgeoning real estate scene, Josh Wheelock and Kelly, the dynamic duo behind Fit Family Homes, are redefining the way we think about our living spaces. With a rich tapestry of experience that spans across three decades in the intense service and finance industry, Josh’s venture into real estate was not just a career shift but a continuation of a lifelong journey influenced by a deep-seated passion for creating meaningful connections and community through the transformation of homes.
Growing up in a world of constant movement, from renting and renovating to buying and building, Josh and Kelly have experienced the full spectrum of home ownership. Their shared journey has been a mosaic of memories, from moving just a street away to relocating across the country, always with the aim of enhancing value not just for themselves but for the neighborhoods they’ve been part of. This foundation laid the groundwork for Fit Family Homes, a real estate venture that marries Josh’s finance and customer service expertise with Kelly’s visionary knack for uncovering potential in the unlikeliest of places.

In a market often fixated on price tags and property values, Josh advocates for a more nuanced understanding of real estate transactions. He believes in the power of negotiation and the importance of considering a multitude of factors beyond just the listing price. This approach, combined with a comprehensive understanding of the market’s condition, marketing strategies, and the art of negotiation, sets Fit Family Homes apart in a competitive industry.
For Josh, real estate is more than just transactions; it’s about family, community, and the joy of finding that perfect space to call home. This philosophy, rooted in the belief that homes are both a personal sanctuary and a cornerstone of financial well-being, drives Fit Family Homes to deliver not just houses, but homes that truly fit the unique needs and aspirations of their clients.
Despite the demands of a thriving real estate career, Josh and Kelly maintain a vibrant balance between work and personal life, cherishing the simple pleasures of family time, outdoor activities, and community involvement. Their passion for homes extends beyond the professional realm, influencing their hobbies and interests in ways that enrich their work and deepen their connection with clients.
