Mark Spain Real Estate Increases Metro Atlanta Base by Opening Henry County Office

Staff Report From Metro Atlanta CEO

Tuesday, April 11th, 2017

Mark Spain Real Estate opened its second office in metro Atlanta and third office overall in Georgia.  Located in Stockbridge near Eagles Landing Country Club, the real estate office is set in a business park in the heart of the Eagle Landing community.
 
"We couldn't be more excited to officially open our first southside location. The southside of metro Atlanta is an area we were already serving and we knew we needed an office to continue growing in that market,” explained Mark Spain Real Estate President John Makarewicz. “We chose Stockbridge due to the office space options, proximity to our current book of business and closeness to McDonough, Jonesboro, Conyers and other markets we serve.”

Though based in Alpharetta, the Mark Spain Real Estate team of agents has sold houses in all 14 counties that make up metro Atlanta. With 1,842 closings last year alone, they averaged more than five homes sold per day. In 2016, Makarewicz summarized, the southern metro Atlanta counties, also known as the Southern Crescent, accounted for nearly 50 percent of the firm’s business. This was a significant increase over the previous year and the time had come to open an office base there to continue developing that region.
 
The Henry County office is equipped to handle 30 agents. At its opening on April 10, 2017, it has 12 real estate agents ready to serve the area. In 2016—the year Mark Spain took his nationally recognized team independent—the company opened a second office in Athens, Ga. and expanded to a total of 125 team members. The Stockbridge office is the first of three Mark Spain Real Estate offices expected to open in 2017. Two others are slated for the west and east sides of Atlanta, respectively, before year-end.
 
The firm’s growth over the last year has not gone unnoticed. Mark Spain Real Estate was just honored by the Atlanta Business Chronicle with the Pacesetter Award. This award annually honors Atlanta’s top 100 fastest-growing privately held companies with a track record for taking their business to the next level.
