    • Highly likely to recommend04/10/2018 - nick papa84Sold a Single Family home in 2018 in Grant Park, Atlanta, GA.Doug and Lisa were great to work with! Their extensive knowledge of the Atlanta area and all things real estate made the buying and selling process a breeze. They were able to answer every question I threw at them and best of all they were always accessible for me. In my business you have to have agents that take care of business quickly and efficiently and that's what they do. I look forward to working with them again in the future!

    • Highly likely to recommend05/23/2018 - rockshowboxSold a Single Family home in 2018 in Douglasville, GA.Lisa Rakestraw is absolutely amazing. Shes a go-getter, a great communicator, and a pleasure to work with. She put my home on the market on a Friday and had offers the next day. By Sunday, she already had two contracts accepting full asking price. Lisa is honest, intelligent, friendly and professional. I highly recommend Lisa. Im still blown away at her amazing talent. The whole process has been easy and enjoyable, clear and precise

    • Doug and Lisa are the best people we have met and the best realtors we have dealt with. We have been searching for a house for over a year and Doug was so awesome and patient with us. They never rushed or pushed for a decision as they respected us and understood the importance of finding the right place. We also sold our home through them. I did not want to deal with anyone else after the experience with Doug and Lisa. To sum up, I rate Doug and Lisa as one of the best people you can meet and I wish all great things come to them.

    • Highly likely to recommend05/31/2018 - Nomikos DuvlarisSold a home in 2018 in Ashford Park, Atlanta, GA 30341.There is no one in Atlanta who understands the market better than Lisa and Doug. I sold my house in Brookhaven in March and the entire process went very smooth. Doug and Lisa made that happen. They are very responsive, efficient and friendly and actually made the process pretty fun! Glad I won't have to shop for another agent next time I need real estate expertise. I already know the best in Atlanta! Thanks again guys!

    • Highly likely to recommend05/31/2018 - zBought a home in 2018 in Calumet Woods, Kennesaw, GA 30152.Doug and Lisa are amazing. Not only did we find a house, we found friends. After months and months of looking at what seemed like a 100 different homes, Doug remained patient, knowledgeable, wiling to answer any question, honest and fun. I'm thoroughly convinced we have the house we do now is because of Doug and his friendly personality and extra effort. I've recommend Doug to several of my family members who are interested in finding homes here in GA. and would recommend him and Lisa to anyone looking for a home in the Atlanta area,

    • Highly likely to recommend07/14/2018 - jonbowman2177Bought a Single Family home in 2018 in Powder Springs, GA.We requested information on a home on a holiday weekend and Lisa immediately contacted us. She was helpfull throughout the entire process. We were coming from out of state and unfamiliar with real estate in Georgia, she sent us daily emails with listings and asked for feedback in order to find the perfect house we were looking for.

    • Highly likely to recommend09/26/2018 - KatherineTrimmerBought a Single Family home in 2018 in Acworth, GA.Lisa Rakestraw and Doug Adams were an excellent team. We had a very specific type of property in mind, and several very particular needs that can be hard to meet. They also recommended an excellent home inspector, who saved us a ton of heartache when the first home we put an offer in on didn't work out. They were available for showings whenever we needed them to be, and always responsive to questions. They also pre-screened any listings I sent their way, and let us know if they thought it would or would not work for our needs. Thanks to them, we are in a house that completely suits our needs and is more than we could have dreamed of! The whole experience was excellent, and I highly recommend their services when you need to buy your next home

    • Highly likely to recommend11/23/2018 - serenityoakswellnessBought a Single Family home in 2018 in Jasper, GA.Doug and Lisa are a great team and really make you feel like you're their only client with the level of focus and quick response to make things happen. We were not only able to find our dream home but they helped negotiate (and renegotiate when the unknowns arised) a fair offer to make the deal happen. Beyond being professionals they're also very personable and a pleasure to work with. This is our second property we've worked with them on and no doubt we'd have no second thoughts on working with them again in the future.

    • Highly likely to recommend12/26/2018 - Michelle RamsdellBought a Condo home in 2018 in Canton, GA.Lisa and Doug were wonderful! This was my first time buying a home. I was nervous because I knew absolutely nothing. They were both patient, kind and educated me throughout the entire process. They referred me to people they work with regarding my loan, whom were also honest, upfront and talked me thru the process. In the end, I would recommend Lisa and Doug over and over again
