Ratings & Reviews

Richard sold our house in Virginia Highlands and helped us find our home in Druid Hills. Richard went above and beyond for us, whether attending to details ahead of open houses, making recommendations for small tweaks to make our house attractive to prospective buyers, or making sure that the marketing photos were just right. On the buying side, he spent plenty of time with us and discerned what we needed before we realized it ourselves. Highly recommend!

Richard Reid is an excellent realtor with a breadth of knowledge that is unmatched by anyone I have worked with in the past. His attention to detail and friendly pursuit of all areas to get a deal and satisfy his customer are outstanding. Even in areas where it is not necessary, Richard will go the extra mile and even fight the battles that some realtors leave to their clients to sort out later. I had not been in the housing market in quite a number of years and Richard made it seamless. He explained things that I had forgotten and illuminated areas that were new in the real estate business. I will recommend him to any and all I meet.

Richard came highly recommended by a family friend boasting over 20 years of extensive experience in the real estate industry. Our project necessitated more than mere realtor services; we required a professional adept in business acumen, seasoned in real estate investing, and well-versed in short-term rentals. Richard demonstrated expertise in all these areas and exhibited a comprehensive understanding of the greater Atlanta market, facilitating the identification of the optimal location for our unique project. From inception to completion, Richard successfully secured our ideal property within a remarkable 90-day timeframe and facilitated connections with mortgage loan professionals who mirrored his business acumen and efficiency. His adept negotiation skills resulted in securing maximum seller concessions despite a competitive sellers' market. Without reservation, we anticipate future transactions with Richard and wholeheartedly recommend his services to others.
