Off-Market Access in a Low-Inventory Market
Virginia-Highland's low inventory means the best homes often sell before they're publicly listed. Buyers relying on Zillow alerts are already too late for the most desirable properties.
Our 40+ years in intown Atlanta have built relationships with other agents, longtime residents, and estate attorneys. When a VaHi home is about to hit the market—or when an owner is quietly considering selling—we often know first.

Buyer Reviews
What Our Virginia-Highland Buyers Say
"Found us a home before it hit the market."
We'd been searching for months with another agent and getting nowhere. Within two weeks of switching, we had access to an off-market property that checked every box. Closed a month later.
— Jennifer & Mark S., Buckhead
"Relocated from NYC—they made it easy."
Buying a home remotely seemed impossible, but the team handled everything. Video tours, detailed neighborhood breakdowns, even coordinating inspections when we couldn't be there. Seamless.
— Andrew P., Midtown
"Talked us out of a bad purchase."
We fell in love with a house that had foundation issues. Instead of just closing the deal, they brought in a structural engineer and laid out the real costs. Saved us from a huge mistake.
— Chris & Amanda W., Dunwoody
"Won our dream home in a bidding war."
There were 4 other offers on the table. The team's strategy and relationships with the listing agent made the difference. We got the house without being the highest bid.
— Sarah T., Virginia-Highland
"Patient with our changing criteria."
We started looking for a condo, then decided we wanted a house, then changed neighborhoods twice. Never once felt rushed or judged. Just helpful guidance throughout.
— Brian & Lisa M., Decatur
"Actually knows the neighborhoods."
Not just the houses—the schools, the traffic patterns, where development is happening. That local knowledge was invaluable for us as first-time Atlanta buyers.
— Rachel K., Sandy Springs
