My boyfriend somehow found Kelly+Co and I'm really glad he did. It was our first time as homebuyers…read moreso the process was entirely new to us. I didn't even know such agencies existed. We had a very good experience. As one reviewer mentioned, they literally have everything you could need connections wise to help you throughout the process. Don't have a lender? No problem, they can make great recommendations. Don't have an inspector? No problem, they can recommend one. The process of buying a home especially the time we did, the market was extremely competitive. Homes were easily having at least 10 offers at a time, so how can you stand out. We were able to close on a house within a little over a month of starting our home search. We worked with Caitlin and she was absolutely fantastic! I would recommend Kelly+Co without a second thought. If I ever did have to sell a house, I'd use them. I love the convenience of everything they have to offer. Their office is really cute as well :). We were able to close on a house within about a 2 month time frame from when we initially had our first meeting and started looking at homes.

Kristen is so knowledgeable, patient, super responsive, not pushy at all, attentive and just all around helpful and nice. When we found our price, there were already multiple offers on it and we had to react quickly. Kristen knew exactly what to do and I honestly don't think we would have gotten the house without her. I have and will always recommend her to my friends and family and call her the second I need to sell or buy.

December 2017 Review for New Home Purchase: I just closed on my new home with Jenny as my agent…read more She is very knowledgeable, professional, prompt, and thorough. As with every transaction, home purchases have a lot of moving parts, and we have to depend on a lot of other parties (seller, builder with a new home, lender, etc.) to make sure the process is on track. I have never met anyone, personally or professionally, who is so on top of everything- calendars, checklists, and reminders. It makes the entire process run so smoothly when you know that your agent is not only on top of her checklist as a agent, but mine, the seller's and the lender's. Not only is she very competent and responsible with respect to her profession, she is extremely affable, friendly, and warm. I truly enjoyed all of my interactions with her. May 2017 Review for Previous Home Sale: Jenny is the BEST real estate professional I have ever worked with. Full stop. I have bought and sold multiple properties in ATL (and in NYC) and she has been the most competent, knowledgeable, organized, and resourceful agent I have ever encountered - buying and selling. Even when I was not sure if I wanted to sell my house right away, she still invested a great deal of time and energy to give me practical advice so that when I was ready to sell I would be able to maximize my position as a seller. I wish I could give her more stars.

Leah went above and beyond the call of duty for me and my family. Not only did she expertly…read morenegotiate and secure a contract that we were very happy with on our dream home, but she also took a very proactive role in helping us to clear some challenging obstacles related to the sale of our home in a different state even though she wasn't handling that transaction. Every single time I felt the stress bubbling up, one phone call to Leah would calm my nerves and remind me that there was nothing to worry about because we were in the best possible hands. From our first showing to closing day and beyond, it was obvious that in addition to her extensive expertise, Leah is genuinely passionate about helping her clients enjoy a smooth and successful home-buying experience. I love how communicative and efficient Leah is. I never had to wonder what was going on because she always kept us in the loop and gave excellent advice throughout the whole process. She has a strong network of reliable contacts for anything you might need from inspectors to movers and everything in between. When logistical issues prevented us from physically making it to the closing on time, Leah jumped in and served as our surrogate by doing a video final walk-through for us and collecting the keys. She then met us at the house with a sweet arrangement of thoughtful gifts and a few essentials that came in very handy after a long day of traveling. Buying a home anywhere is a very stressful process. Buying a home hundreds of miles away from your hometown while trying to sell your current home and juggling the endless logistical challenges of a cross-state move makes regular home-buying stress seem like child's play. The most valuable lesson I learned in this whole process is that you should choose your realtor as carefully as you choose your future home because that one choice can play a huge role in whether your dream home becomes a reality or devolves into more of a nightmare. As I write this review sitting comfortably in my beautiful new home that likely would have slipped through my fingers had I chosen any other agent, I can assure you that Leah Akiki is the dream maker you need in your corner. There is no better real estate professional and nobody else I would ever consider using for my future real estate needs.

Janice and her team run the best real estate firm in Georgia. I've bought and sold multiple…read moreproperties with her and they are fast, smart and knowledgeable. During a buying experience, Janice's agent delivered my terms and perspective to the selling agent with intelligence and she found an inconsistency that was extremely vital to us getting the best deal on the property. As a selling representative, I sold a condo in a tough market in 3 days for asking when there were many properties in the same building on sale for months. I never had to worry about a thing. It was a done, sign and go interaction and we received top dollar. I recommend Janice to everyone. She is a superstar. She can answer questions that are extremely nuanced and she cares about every client. It's a surreal gift. They represent professionalism, knowledge and reliability and you will be happy with your experience.

BEWARE: Extremely Unprofessional Agent!!!…read more We are first time home buyers, and literally had this special experience ruined for us. She took away the joy and excitement of buying our first home. We were scheduled to do our final walkthrough the day before our closing. Cathy picked the time and date, which meant that we moved our schedule around and missed my grandmother's birthday dinner to make this appointment, while traveling over an hour from where we lived. Our agent even messaged her hours before the schedule appointment which she couldn't be bothered to respond to. We showed up (on time) and she is no where to be found. We tried calling her multiple times. Our agent also tried calling her and she was unresponsive. Finally after almost 30 minutes, she picks up the call and instead of trying to hear anything I had to say, she abruptly tries to defend why she wasn't there. She was under the impression that we were different people and looking at a different property. Again, not taking any accountability that she in the wrong for missing a scheduled appointment. Instead she was too busy trying to defend why it's okay that she was not there. When she finally arrives to the property, she refused to make eye contact with us and remained extremely unprofessional. She even made it to clear to us that "she was doing us a favor and that she didn't need to let us in." Again, she agreed to letting us in (days in advance) and decided on the date and time. We honored her schedule and yet she made us feel extremely small, insignificant and not worth her time. I literally cried on our hour long drive home because I was so upset that a "professional" who claims her motto is "treat others the way you want to be treated," treated us like complete and worthless shit. She spoke down to us as if we were children and her husband just stood there and watched as she carried herself in an unethical and unprofessional manner. I will never ever forget how she ruined this special moment for us. We couldn't even celebrate closing on our home because her negativity, lack of organization and cruelty had me distraught. She made us feel like a pure transaction and thinks that she is some big fish in such a tiny pond. I would never recommend this agent to anyone. Stay away, she is aggressive and unkind.

We listed our house using Cathy, after I did some research on yelp and Zillow. I try to always be…read morehonest in my reviews and will do so here as well. She's aggressive and the pictures of the house were professional. A little too filtered in retrospect. There were 20+ viewings during the time she had the listing. That was the good. The issues we had were numerous however. There was poor communication throughout. We found out important factors after the fact, there were discrepancies in what she originally said and then it was changed to be more beneficial to whatever point she wanted to make. After 15 days she said on a joint call with us that we should reduce the price by $10K and from there it deteriorated quickly. Later she said she didn't say that. My honest opinion is she relies on the fact that she's done it for x amount of years and her way. She didn't use a system to alert for showings such as the app showing time which would have been very helpful. She tried to strong arm her thoughts and beliefs onto the client and the most difficult thing was to constantly hear that we were very important but we were asked to have this or that piece of info, paperwork etc done by this specific time because she had a client or showing or some other thing going on. Bottom line; we felt we weren't important, we were misled or pressured and her personality didn't work for us. Upon the termination of the listing, we found a different realtor who had the house under contract and within $2K of ask price in the same time frame.

When we decided to sell our home, we called Alicia Tankersley. From the initial meeting to the day…read moreof closing, Alicia and her team were awesome! Their professionalism and knowledge were impressive. Before we listed, the stager and photographer were brought in to help us make our house a true showplace. We worked hard getting things ready, and Alicia was there to help and support us. Our listing went live on a Thursday, the Open House was held on a Sunday, and we had two full price offers on Monday! Alicia is a hard working, caring, and involved realtor. She really listens and does everything she can to help get the best price for your home. During a stressful time of upheaval and change, Alicia was there to offer support and a calming influence. We are now in our new home, and we could never have done it this quickly without Alicia and her team. We will definitely recommend Alicia to anyone who plans to sell their home - she's the best!

My husband and I worked with Kym Fleming at Atlanta Communities when purchasing our first home…read more Although we successfully closed in April, the experience left us feeling unsupported and inadequately guided during several important parts of the transaction. Our concerns were not simply that every request was not accepted by the sellers. We understand that negotiations do not always go a buyer's way. Our concerns were about the quality of the advice, communication, advocacy, and transaction oversight we received. The most financially significant issue involved the sellers remaining in the home after closing. Before agreeing to the arrangement, we did not feel adequately advised that rent, compensation, or other terms could potentially be negotiated for post-closing occupancy. We only learned about those options later through our own online research rather than from the agent we trusted to educate and guide us as first-time buyers. Once we understood the financial impact, we asked for the refrigerator to be included in exchange for allowing the sellers to remain without paying rent, but it was not formally negotiated or secured. We ultimately continued paying approximately $2,400 in apartment rent while owning a home we could not yet occupy. While Kym did obtain a seller contribution toward our closing costs, that does not change the fact that we did not feel fully informed about our options or strategically advised regarding what to offer for the home or the occupancy arrangement. We knew every request might not be accepted, but we still expected our agent to clearly explain the available options, potential financial consequences, and possible negotiation strategies so that we could make an informed decision. Instead, I was left to conduct my own research and seek guidance from family members who had not purchased a home in decades. There were also communication and transaction-management issues. Two days before closing, I identified incorrect numbers in the closing documentation and learned that updated information had not reached our lender. At several points, I felt I was personally monitoring and correcting matters that I expected our agent to manage. I later submitted a detailed complaint to the managing broker and received a relatively quick reply from Sandee Burnham. Her initial response attributed some communication problems to my having "unsubscribed" from Kym's emails, even though I did not unsubscribe until well after closing and moving in. The broker later acknowledged that this was not an accurate characterization but maintained the same overall conclusion which was that Kym's lack of knowledge, guidance and support did not fall " below Atlanta Communities' professional standards" which says a lot about their business. I recognize that the brokerage reviewed the file and determined that none of its professional standards or ethics rules were violated. However, determining that conduct did not rise to the level of a formal violation is not the same as providing an informed, supportive, and well-managed client experience. The lack of follow-through continued through the end of the transaction. At our final walk-through, Kym told us she had forgotten the closing gift she intended to give us and would stop by with it the following week after returning from a trip. We never heard from her or saw her again. As first-time homebuyers, we expected stronger guidance, communication, advocacy, and follow-through from both our agent and the brokerage. I would tell people to RUN from this company and find another option that will give you the proper home buying experience. Edit: I moved on... until Kym replied to my Zillow review with a version of events that contains multiple inaccuracies & only reinforces my original concerns. Negotiating closing costs doesn't erase the lack of guidance/oversight or the fact that I caught the closing error two days, not weeks, before closing. If Kym advocated for us during the transaction as much as she is advocating for herself now, perhaps this review would not exist.
