The Welcome Home Team Atlanta

Cheryl and Doug Graves are truly exceptional. Our relationship with them began in 2017 when we purchased our first home. From the start, they took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and guided us through every step of the process. I always felt supported, never pressured, and confident they had our best interests in mind. Fast forward to 2025, our family had grown and we needed more space. We were nervous about the market and didn’t feel comfortable buying a new home before selling our current one. Cheryl and Doug were the first people we called, and they immediately put us at ease. They made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. They helped us secure a short-term rental, connected us with a contractor, and managed the work needed to prepare our home for sale. We shared our budget, and they handled the rest. Everything was completed on schedule, our home was listed as promised, and their recommendations paid off. Our house sold in just two days above asking price! They then helped us find our new home the day after closing on our sale. Their recommended lender and strategy helped us close in only 19 days. In less than 100 days, our family went through several major changes, and we kept our sanity because Cheryl and Doug were with us every step of the way. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell in Atlanta!

Selling and buying a home is a daunting experience, especially as in our case, you only do so every 15 to 20 years. The advent of the Internet has radically changed the game. Fortunately, we were familiar with Doug and Cheryl Graves, but not on a professional basis. Doug and Cheryl have many years assisting sellers and buyers, and it shows. My wife and I had intentions to sell our home and purchase another home relatively close by. It became apparent to me from day one that the team of Doug and Cheryl really knew their profession.. Selling a home these days requires work and communication for all parties concerned. If you are willing to listen to and follow the kindly, yet strong advice of dog and Cheryl and their wonderful Asst., Kristin, you can be assured that there are none better. Getting the most out of your home and getting the Home that you want requires diligence and finesse. I cannot stress how impressed my wife and I were with their team. Again, it’s obvious that the years of experience and quite frankly, diplomacy on their parts makes a big difference on both selling and acquisition. We could not be any happier.

Before listing my home, I met with six real estate agents. While all were competent and one was very good, Cheryl and Doug Graves distinguished themselves as truly exceptional. They possess a strong understanding of market trends and conditions, demonstrate keen insight into client needs, and have deep expertise in every aspect of buying and selling a home. In addition, they are consistently responsive and professional in all interactions. Over the course of my lifetime, I have bought and sold five homes. Cheryl and Doug Graves exceeded all of my expectations and are, without question, the best agents I have ever worked with.

Cheers to the Welcome Home Team Atlanta! Doug and Cheryl Graves are fantastic from start to finish! Their knowledge of metro Atlanta and more importantly, their network has led to three real‑estate deals — buying our first home, selling it, …

Cheryl and Doug have been absolutely amazing in helping us sell our home! From the very beginning, they gave us great advice on how to prepare our house months ahead of listing. Our home is about 30 years old and while we've kept it in good condition, we never did major renovations to the kitchen or master bath. Cheryl guided us through affordable updates—bringing in a professional decorator to help modernize the look with updated light fixtures and finishes, helping us choose the right paint colors, and connecting us with a stager to make a great first impression. Doug handled the pricing strategy and marketing—making sure the square footage was correctly listed and doing the research to price the home just right to attract the most interest. And it worked—we had seven offers after the first weekend of showings and ended up selling above asking price! They also walked us through the entire negotiation process, both during the initial offer phase and the due diligence period, making what could have been a stressful experience so much easier. Their advice throughout the months of prep made all the difference in helping the house show well and stand out in a competitive market. We truly felt like we had trusted friends on our side, looking out for our best interests. We’ve been raving about them to everyone and will absolutely recommend Cheryl and Doug to any friends or family looking to sell or buy. They know the market, they know how to guide their clients, and most importantly—they genuinely care.
