We bought an investment property in GA with James in 2018 and sold it in 2022. He was also our…read moreproperty manager during that time. He came recommended to us by a friend who had also bought investment properties with him and our purchase and subsequent sale was smooth. He found us a buyer while it was still tenant occupied. During the 4 years we held the property, and compared with other property managers, we didn't feel that his services were worth his fee. We opted for the hybrid fee model yet we ended up doing most of the communicating with the HOA and the renter ourselves. At the end of the day, his relationships are with the sales people of the builders, and once they transition to the community's HOA, James had no contacts and just told us to handle ourselves. We felt that we should've gotten higher rent for the property and better tenants. The first tenant he found wanted to break the lease and James didn't really know how to handle that other than to talk to the tenant. As a lawyer myself and from experience, I knew how to take legal action and drafted the proper paperwork myself. The second tenant he found was fine except he kept contacting me directly because he said James wasn't handling his concerns. Tenant eventually asked me to just renew his lease without James because it was easier that way. Since neither landlord nor tenant felt properly taken care of, we just decided to offload the property and exit the GA market altogether. Chalk it up to lesson learned and to stick to the market that we know personally. Furthermore, he left my phone # on GA public records even after our sale so I get calls and letters weekly from GA flippers looking to buy the property we no longer own. Fun. Lastly, he kept asking me to write a positive review for him on BiggerPockets while he had only just started managing our property. Didn't make sense to me as his job had only just begun and anything could still happen (and did). So I'm now writing an honest and non-emotional review 5 yrs later to present the full set of facts. Cross-posted on Zillow and Google.

I have worked with James on many occasions and he always exceeded my expectations…read more His expertise and knowledge of the market is second to none He helped me to buy several rental properties and find great tenants for it. Recently he helped me to refinance my home as well as James also owns a mortgage company. James had everything done extremely fast and we closed in 2 weeks. The one things I really like about James and the reason he is the one who manages my rental properties is that he has extensive experience and an extremely thorough tenant screening process related to income and credit qualifications, This enables him to find good reliable tenants. All my tenants that James worked with speak highly of him as well. I recommend James for any of your real estate needs including financing.

We truly appreciated Ashton's dedication, attention to detail, and expertise, and we highly recommend her and the Justin Landis Group to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

I can say, with 100% certainty, that hiring Katie and her team as "our friends in real estate" was…read moreeasily one of the best decisions I have made in a very long time. My husband and I recently relocated to Georgia from Florida and were ready to purchase our first home - yep in this market. I reached out to Katie to put some feelers out as I did with a few other agents in the area. After one conversation with Katie I canceled all my other calls with other agents. Katie put my husband and I at ease about our reluctance to even pursue a home at this time considering how crazy the market was. She paired us up with Tori, and mentioned she thought Tori would be a great match. Katie was right. Tori is an absolute rockstar and was a dream to work with. She is warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and so supportive. She gave us such great advice and was always able (and willing) to answer all of our questions - which there were plenty. Tori never pushed us to make decisions and was so sweet and compassionate the entire time. We had quite an exhausting search, and I was emotionally on a roller coaster for several months. Every single time I was feeling really low, Tori had some sort of spidey-sense and would call me and make me feel so much better. Despite how relieved I was to have finally have one of our offers accepted, I would be lying if I said there was a big part of me that was not sad when it ended. So while I can say Tori was absolutely successful in equipping us with the tools we needed to secure our first home, I am more bummed I don't get to see her and chat on a regular basis anymore. Tori played such an instrumental role in our lives the last few months and we will be indebted to her for as long as we can remember. I truly cannot speak any more highly of Katie and her entire team. You are truly doing yourself a disservice by using anyone else to buy or sell your home. We are actually looking forward to all of our future real estate endeavors because we get to work with our new friends again. When Katie says her and her team will be "your friends in real estate" she really does mean it and absolutely delivers. Fantastic at what they do and so sweet, knowledgeable, and compassionate the entire way. Truly just a team of really fantastic humans. I feel truly blessed and fortunate to have found Katie and her team and to have had the opportunity to work with them. I can assure you, Katie's team will not disappoint. Don't sign a brokerage agreement with anyone else!

I was looking for an agent to sell our condo in Atlanta. I used Yelp for this, and specified that I…read morewant an African American woman to be my agent. Candace was one of the ones who responded. She has a lot of great reviews, and I do not mean to detract from that. I wish her the best, but at the same time, I thought that, in all fairness, I need to tell of my experience. My own take is that she was usually a step slower than others to respond. And while everyone else went to look at the condo before getting back to me, she didn't. Both of these may be on account of the fact that she holds down a different day job. Perhaps she has an assistant or two at her disposal, but I'm skeptical that she would be able to provide the attention that I would have needed. Others who had a good experience with her - good for you. I decided to go a different way.
