Georgia is home to the world's busiest airport (Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International), Coca-Cola, and more than 70 drives, avenues, and lanes with a variation of the word "Peachtree" in their names.
According to Zillow data, the current median home value in the Peach State is $306,113. Home values have risen about 27.75% over the past year.
Georgia has over 60,000 realtors and dozens of real estate companies to choose from. Whether you're buying or selling a house, finding the right service can be daunting.
Our team of experts has found the top real estate companies in Georgia to help you find the best service for your situation:
Best for saving money: Discount brokers
Discount brokers are a great option for saving money while still working with a real estate agent. Typically, home sellers are charged a reduced commission, and home buyers get cash back or credits at closing.
Some discount services in Georgia, like Redfin, expect their agents to work with a higher volume of clients. That could diminish their level of customer service.
Other services, like Clever Real Estate, can match you with a full-service agent and help you save money by pre-negotiating lower fees.
Best for a fast sale: iBuyers and cash buyers
In Georgia, the median selling time for a home is 57 days. If you need to sell your home faster, you can work with a buyer company that will make a cash offer and close on your timeline — often in under two weeks.
If your home is in good condition and requires minimal repairs, iBuyers (companies like Offerpad and Opendoor) pay almost as much as you'd get on the open market. You won't have to deal with preparing, listing, and marketing your home — some iBuyers will even let you move out AFTER closing.
If you're trying to sell a distressed property, you're better off working with a cash buyer. In Georgia, those companies include Express Homebuyers, Dependable Homebuyers, and Real Ventures.
Cash buyers make offers between 50% and 70% of fair market value. On a $250,000 home, that means you'd lose out on around $75,000.
Best for finding top agents: Agent-matching services
If you want to work with a professional, agent-matching services can help you find top realtors in your area quickly. These services are free and connect you with a pre-vetted local agent from well-known brokerages, like Coldwell Banker and REMAX.
Some agent-matching services provide names of several agents that you can interview until you find one that you feel comfortable with. Others, like Clever Real Estate and Upnest, also charge a reduced commission.
Clever is our top pick in Georgia because with a listing fee of just $3,000 (or 1% if your home sells for more than $350,000) you'll save the most money while still getting full-service support from an agent.
Best by transaction volume
A more objective metric to measure the best real estate companies in Georgia is the total dollar value (or transaction volume) of all deals that passed through a local real estate brokerage.
This data doesn't necessarily tell you which company in the state offers the best customer experience — just who's earning the most business.
