Atlanta Communities Real Estate Brokerage Named to 2016 Real Trends 500 List

ATLANTA - May 13, 2016 - PRLog -- Now in its 29^th year, the Real Trends list has an excellent reputation for accuracy because all sales data for firms on the list are independently verified. Atlanta Communities has appeared on the list in the past, but this is the first year the independent real estate brokerage cracked the top 100. The firm placed No. 81 for transactions when it had 6,208 transactions in 2015. This nearly 24 percent increase in closings, year-over-year, moved Atlanta Communities up 20 spots on the list.

In addition, Atlanta Communities moved up 25 spots on the top 500 list, sorted by sales volume.

The company crossed the $1 billion sales mark for the first time in 2014 and has not looked back, posting $1.36 billion in sales last year.

"As the metro Atlanta real estate market continues to improve, our growing team of experienced real estate professionals is right there to help buyers and sellers. We have proven there is room for an independent real estate company to excel in the metro Atlanta real estate market," explains Judson Adamson, founder and CEO of Atlanta Communities.

Adamson also says the metro Atlanta real estate market is extremely active, even before the summer market begins. New construction is on the rise and it's a seller's market in most metro Atlanta, with some properties garnering multiple offers within days of hitting the market.

Earlier this year, Atlanta Communities was again the youngest real estate firm to make the Atlanta Business Chronicle's Top 10 Residential Real Estate Organizations list. Atlanta Communities actually moved up a spot on this list over the previous year.

Atlanta Communities is a residential real estate brokerage that assists home buyers and sellers primarily in the north metro Atlanta region. For more information or to conduct a property search of the metro Atlanta real estate market, visit www.AtlantaCommunities.net or call 770-240-2001.

Comprised of more than 750 agents and five locations, Atlanta Communities increased its total volume in 2015 by 32 percent, reaching over $1.3 billion in annual gross sales. The firm also earned the prestigious Inc. 5000 Award as one of America's fastest-growing privately held companies last year.
