We didn't know where to start before we found HomeLight. We went from not having any idea who to work with to having a top notch realtor who matched our needs.

Our experience with HomeLight was unbelievably easy! Within minutes of contacting HomeLight, two realtors contacted me and two appointments had been set.

When is the right time to hire a real estate agent in Atlanta?
It's going to depend on the temperature of the Atlanta housing market but we generally recommend that you hire a real estate agent as soon as you're thinking of selling your home. Generally speaking, that's anywhere from 3 to 6 months prior to your desired move date.
How important is it to hire a top real estate agent in Atlanta?
On average, the top performing 5% of seller's agents generally command a higher selling price (+9%) than the average real estate agent. The top performing 5% of buyer's agents generally save their clients 2.5% more than the average real estate agent at closing. So, whether you're buying or selling your house, your odds of making more money on the transaction are higher if you work with a top performing agent.
Why do I need to hire a licensed real estate agent in Atlanta?
Always ensure you’re working with a trained, accredited real estate professional. That's the best way to protect you and your property. Every listing agent should be prepared to deliver proof of their license to sell in your area.
