Jim Taylor, a North Carolina native, has made Columbia, SC his home for the last 35 years. After graduating from Elon College with a degree in business administration, Jim launched a successful sales career spanning over 40 years. Over the course of his career he successfully built two start-up companies; building annual sales levels to more than $7 million. A long time interest in real estate spurred a career change decision and National Land Realty presents a natural fit.

Jim and his wife Elizabeth have two children and five grandchildren; both Catherine and Jack are graduates of Clemson University. The Taylors are Solid Orange Clemson supporters. A lifelong, avid outdoors-man, Jim has enjoyed spending his leisure time hunting, hiking, training for Grand Canyon hikes; having completed more than a dozen rim-to-rim hikes, and golfing. Local volunteer activities include the South Carolina Wildlife Federation, active member of the Butler Plantation Rod and Gun Club. Jim is a member of Seven Oaks Presbyterian Church and is an Ordained Elder.
