"After a 20-year career with Coca-Cola USA and the U.S. Olympic Committee, I was ready to diversify my financial portfolio, which was over-weighted in underperforming Coca-Cola Company stock and non-cash flow producing real estate. My initial strategy was to enlist the help of several agents to gain access to the metro Atlanta market. But after finding Atlanta International Real Estate Brokers and meeting Jackie Bradford and the rest of the team, I changed my approach.

Jackie’s unique ability to see potential in an otherwise undistinguished property is a skill that I’ve leveraged again and again to my advantage. Jackie Bradford’s and Sharon Brooks’ expertise in multi-family housing recently helped me to execute an
IRS 1031 Exchange. After zeroing in on 8 duplex buildings and executing a contract at 2 p.m., Jackie and Sharon called to tell me the deal was signed at 5 p.m. the same day. But the benefits of my association with Atlanta International Real Estate go far beyond identifying acquisition targets and coming to terms. Sharon provides comprehensive turn key support throughout the buying process that continues after the sale is completed. Loretta and Sid Allen (Jackie‘s Sister) and Jackie who have mentored me in my role as landlord, have taken the concept of “service after the sale” to a new level. The lessons they’ve taught have helped me to meet the needs of my tenants, while maintaining profitability on the property.

If you’re an investor looking for properties in the multi-family market, you owe it to yourself to start and finish your search by contacting Jackie, Sharon and the rest of the Atlanta International Real Estate Brokers team."

Furthermore Jackie and his staff provided training, continuing support and advice. With Jackie’s assistance I have purchased almost 100 properties.

Importantly when the time came to sell many of these properties Jackie and his team executed the sales process in a first class and timely manner.

Jackie put me on the road to being financially independent and continues to be an important advisor to me."

After I sold my computer services company in the early 1990’s, and ran for Congress, I met Jackie Bradford, owner/broker of Atlanta International Real Estate Brokers. I bought some of my first investments through Atlanta International Real Estate Brokers. After owning the first quads I bought for about six months, I decided I wanted to be a full-time investor. Over the years I continued to use Atlanta International Real Estate Brokers to buy additional properties. At one time I bought an entire subdivision of duplexes with Jackie Bradford as my broker.

I spent about 10 years buying and renovating the properties and establishing covenants and a Home Owner’s Associations for the communities, before deciding to sell my inventory of duplexes and quadraplexes in 2002. I employed Atlanta International Real Estate to broker the sales. We sold my duplexes & quads with a value of more than $25,000,000 to leverage investments elsewhere.

Utilizing the 1031 exchange funds from the sale of my duplexes and quads, I bought three apartment complexes. I converted one into 52 fee simple townhomes, one into 22 quadraplexes, and one into 6 sixplexes. Atlanta International sold all three complexes in a timely, professional manner.

Atlanta International Real Estate has specialized in the sale of these properties for 25 years and is unquestionably the industry leader in the sales of these types of properties. Their credibility in the marketplace enabled me to 1031 exchange my properties twice into my present portfolio. Jackie Bradford, Broker and Sharon Brooks, Sales Associate make a great team that is the best! They are professional, high-performance people who know who to market multi-family properties.

Jackie sold a few duplexes for me and I was impressed with his knowledge of the market, his thoroughness to all details and most of all his integrity.

Recently, I decided to sell some of the properties and contacted Jackie Bradford.

At present one of his staff members, Sharon Brooks of Atlanta International has done an excellent job in selling the properties. Actually she listed eight duplexes and advised me on things needed to be done to sell for the top dollar. This was achieved in a four month period.

Both Jackie and Sharon have knowledge, contacts, integrity and work very hard to produce contracts for Owners.

My goal was to transition from a corporate career to becoming a fulltime investor. I had the dream and the effort. Jackie had the know - how. He and his staff coached me, step by step, on exactly how to manage properties, how to complete turn – keys, how to find contractors and on what repairs should cost. With his knowledge of the market, I found appreciating properties, with cash flow in desired neighborhoods. With in two years of our first meeting, I had acquired 26 profitable units. I quit the corporate job and never looked back. Today I have completed over 60 real estate transactions and own a portfolio of real estate that will secure me for life. Using what Jackie taught changed my life.
