Debbie is the hardest working woman in real estate

“Debbie is the hardest working woman in real estate. Combine her dedication with deep knowledge of the residential real estate market, add a sparkling personality, and you get a terrific real estate agent. She is a joy to work with and gets great results.”
– Michael 

We had a blast looking for homes.

“There are gems and diamonds and then there is the Hope Diamond. Debbie Sonenshine is the Hope Diamond of Atlanta Real Estate! Patient beyond words, knowledgeable about locations/schools/traffic, always going above and beyond. Debbie first helped us buy a home when we were moving to Atlanta. She did  all the leg work and made it happen while we were out of town. Then when it came to time to move to Sandy Springs, she once again pulled out all the stops. Best of all, she is brutally honest and very funny. We had a blast looking for homes. The only negative after we bought our home is we don’t get to see Debbie on a regular basis. Every once in a blue moon, even in 2017, you find customer service that is so amazing it takes your breath away. That is the experience with Debbie and her team. A+++”

Nobody is better than Debbie!

“I have bought and/or sold seven homes and Debbie Sonenshine was the absolute best realtor we have ever used. She is thorough, honest, extremely knowledgeable and available. The team she works with are superior in what they do from the woman who stages your home, to the photographer who takes  photos, and including Debbie’s staff who keep the listing moving along in the process. Nobody is better than Debbie!”

Debbie provides tailored Real Estate solutions.

“Debbie does not sell real estate. She provides Real Estate solutions that are tailored to the specific needs of the client. She listens intently, understands what the stated and implied needs of the customer (including their family members) are and matches them with properties. She is also a shrewd negotiator on your behalf and knows how to get you a better deal than you could on your own. If you don’t deal with Debbie on Atlanta Real Estate you are making a mistake.”
—Tim

Debbie saved us thousands.

“Being a former real estate agent and, at that time, a real estate appraiser, it was, initially, hard for me to see the reason in hiring a listing agent. In fact, we did try to sell the home by ourselves for a while. In the end, I’m glad we didn’t. Debbie’s intuitive negotiation sense of what you should give up and what you shouldn’t, saved us thousands and we were under contract 7 days after listing. All this and we really liked working with her.”
—John

She is honest, personable, knowledgeable and highly professional.

“I have bought and sold many houses with Debbie over the years. She is honest, personable, knowledgeable and highly professional. I could never wish for a better real estate agent–I highly recommend her real estate expertise and will continue to work with her in the future! Choose Debbie for peace of mind!”
—Carol

Debbie Sells Houses.

“After trying to sell our house ourselves, and then using two other real estate companies to help us sell it (to no avail – the two other companies offered to lower their commissions) What a mistake that was!  Finally, we interviewed Debbie. “Debbie Sells Houses” is the correct slogan for this agent. Her calm demeanor and honest approach helped us realize what most homeowners who want to sell have to realize…that other people may not see the house in the same light the owner does. She put us at ease, so we were able to see our house in her eyes, instead of just our own.  She marketed our house in every way possible.  She stressed the main selling point of the property, and before long, our house had sold! Debbie is the ultimate professional, and we highly recommend her to anyone who is trying to sell a home. “
—Richard and Joan 

You were tenacious.

“Everyone told me that my house would be a snap to sell. After all, it was in a prime neighborhood, on 2 acres, in an area where so many homes were being replaced with mega-mansions, and realistically priced. And then the economy went sour. There no buyers, no money, and few loans available.

But you were diligent. You kept promoting and showing my house. You placed numerous ads (with pictures) in various publications. You had several caravans come through the house. And when you found a potential buyer, you were tenacious.

But frankly one of the most important parts of your professionalism was that you continued to come up with innovative ideas to put the house out there… different ideas in pricing, financing, showing, and refurbishing the house when it needed it. And you didn’t stop there. You maintained incredible professionalism (read this as “composure”) when potential buyers or their agents made absurd requests or demands. You stood firm when we needed to do so, but was painfully honest with me when that was also called for.

And when we finally were fortunate enough to get a decent contract, you continued to be hands-on with advice on the needed repairs, inspections, closing, etc.

You are truly a full-service agent and friend. You kept me calm and, most importantly, kept me real. And you were always available for my calls and concerns.

Thank you so much for your time and all of your efforts.

My best to the rest of the team. They all certainly deserve some of the credit for “our” success.”

You made the entire process smooth and seamless.

“Dear Debbie:  We just wanted to thank you again for all of the assistance that you’ve provided to us over the past few months, from selling the condo to closing on our new home.  You made the entire process, which could have been stressful and crazy, quite smooth and seamless instead.  Thank you again for everything.”
—Bill and Karen

Integrity and high level of professionalism are hard to find.

“We can’t begin to thank you enough for all that you have done to help us.  You stuck by us and saw us through! People with your integrity and high level of professionalism are hard to find.  You are a true credit to your profession.  We are so grateful for all your help. Thank you!”
—Jill and Dan

Outstanding attention to detail

“Debbie was instrumental in selling our home both quickly and at our listing price. We were very pleased with her attention to detail and tremendous network, which resulted in a high level of traffic within the first few days of listing. Debbie and her team made sure we had access to all necessary resources while searching for and eventually finding our new home. In the end, we were very pleased with our experience with Debbie and will recommend her to others.”
—Brad

Do yourself a favor and call Debbie.

“Whether you are buying or selling a home, do yourself a favor and call Debbie. My wife and I were referred to Debbie when we relocated to Philadelphia. In a down market she was able to deliver a purchase agreement that was $20,000 more than our corporate relocation buyout. When we relocated back to Atlanta two years later, Debbie again narrowed our search for a new home in Peachtree Corners. Whether you are buying, selling, or both-you will never go wrong with Debbie. Her local knowledge, experience, and helpful staff will produce results.”
—Sandy

Definitely puts her client’s interests first.

“I have bought 3 houses and sold one with Debbie in the last 5 years – she is very helpful and a great negotiator. Definitely puts her client’s interests first. Would highly recommend as either buyer or seller agent.”
—Mark

Hire her! You won’t regret it.

“We had a phenomenal experience working with Debbie. It is obvious that she has been helping people buy and sell houses for a long time. She was respectful, professional and knowledgeable. We were first time home buyers and she was patient with us and answered all of our questions. There is a reason that she has such a great reputation in Atlanta. She knows what she is doing. Hire her! You won’t regret it.”

—Sarah and John

Debbie was so helpful

“Debbie was so helpful throughout our home buying experience. We started out not knowing what we were looking for and Debbie was patient, knowledgeable, and always accessible. She is honest and she always looked out for our best interests. We highly recommend Debbie!”
—Jennifer

We put our trust in Debbie completely.

“We put our trust in Debbie completely. We have known her for many years and have used her advice before this purchase. She is very devoted to her work, more than most agents. She found the house we bought after she went back to the office at the end of the day. We went with her that same day to view the house, and bought it the next morning. No One had a chance to bid against us. Then we needed to sell our condo. She brought in a person at no charge to stage the place. She moved everything around. The home sold in one week at a great price. That is Debbie!!”
—Mike

I strongly endorse and recommend Debbie and the Sonenshine team.

“We both bought a house using Debbie and also sold a house ten years later with Debbie as our agent. Debbie and her team are knowledgeable and were able to help us sell in a difficult market. I strongly endorse and recommend Debbie and the Sonenshine team.”
