The Experience

EVERY HOME IS UNIQUE. EVERY CLIENT IS ONE OF A KIND.

Compliments of Kerri Gurley

Kerri is one of those rare Atlanta natives and although she has lived outside of Atlanta, there is just no place like home. Kerri was raised in Gwinnett County and attended the University of Georgia where she earned a bachelor's degree in education, specifically communication sciences. After college, Kerri worked in the non-profit sector in grant writing, marketing and public relations. During the three years she and her husband lived in Nashville, Tennessee, Kerri worked for a National Speaker's Bureau as an event planner, working with both clients and speakers in handling the details and logistics of their events.

In 2005, Kerri became a licensed REALTOR® to merge all of her previous skills and experience with her love and passion for Atlanta living. Kerri has a strong technology background for which she has received awards, and her knowledge and experience with social media and the web have played a key role in her success in real estate.

Kerri resides in Johns Creek, where she enjoys the beauty and convenience of the local parks and Greenway nearby as an avid runner. She also enjoys weightlifting and interval training at her local gym, where she has grown to love working out. Kerri has been involved in serving the north Atlanta area through many volunteer projects and values giving back to the community that she loves.

"We couldn't have asked for a better REALTOR® than Kerri! She went the extra mile in every way, ensuring we felt completely supported throughout the homebuying process. She patiently answered every single question we had and truly made the experience of purchasing our first home stress-free and enjoyable. Kerri also provided fantastic contractor recommendations, which was a huge help as we started making our new house feel like home. Her dedication, knowledge, and kindness set her apart, and we are so grateful for her guidance. Highly recommend to anyone in the area looking to purchase a home!"

"Kerri did a phenomenal job as my agent throughout the entire process. I reached out to Kerri because she had recently sold a neighbor's home and could not have been more happy with my decision. I spoke with Kerri a couple of months before I would ultimately go on the market, but I had to get some personal things in order before I could sell. Kerri was never pushy during this time, instead giving me the time needed. By the time I was ready to sell, I would be relocating out of state. Kerri was very helpful during this stressful time, including referring and getting me in contact with a great REALTOR® in North Carolina. Kerri would regularly keep me updated on how the current market was trending, giving me great advice and researching any lead/offer that came our way. Kerri was always there whenever I needed to reach out to her and was professional the entire time. She knows the Atlanta area extremely well and always keeps up with the market. I would recommend Kerri to all my friends, family and anyone looking for a great REALTOR® in the Atlanta area. I'm extremely thankful for everything she did to help me with my buying, selling and ultimately relocation."

"Kerri did an amazing job helping us sell our home of almost 20 years. Her expert knowledge, guidance and calm demeanor set the stage for a wonderful experience from start to end. I highly recommend her to anyone without reservations."

"Kerri was a steady, caring presence during our months-long search. She kept us focused, never let us settle and treated us like family. From writing offers while on vacation to reassuring us during setbacks, her passion and commitment were unmatched. We couldn't have done it without her."
