Bob Sherman, GRI, ABR, SRES

During most of my professional career, I was a management consultant based in Metro Atlanta.  My clients included most of the major U.S. banks and automotive lenders in our country and in Europe.  My work required excellent listening and communication skills, well developed negotiating skills, attention to detail, and dedication to service to my clients – all required for successful real estate transactions!

I came to Blue Ridge and the north Georgia mountains looking for a future retirement home.  I found it and more!  The relaxed pace of life in the mountains and small-town friendliness convinced me to leave Metro Atlanta and the corporate world and move full time to Blue Ridge.  I love my new hometown and believe in giving my time and talent to my community.  My involvement in community activities include: 

•  
  • worked to raise money to build a fire station in my neighborhood, serving as Treasurer of the fund-raising committee,
  • became a member of the Community Emergency Response Team, a group of citizens organized and trained to respond in any way              necessary in the event of a disaster,
  • nationally certified as a First Responder to provide emergency care until emergency medical personnel can be summoned, and
  • served one year on the Board of Directors of the North Georgia Mountains Crisis Center.

Competent, professional service is my top priority.  To that end, I have attended specialized continuing education courses and have earned three professional designations:

• • Graduate, Realtor® Institute (GRI) requires ninety classroom hours of intensive instruction covering contract law, professional standards, sales and marketing, finance, risk reduction, and ethics,
  • Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR) provides Realtors® with the education and experience to better represent home buyers,
  • Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES) prepares the Realtor® to be better prepared to serve the needs of clients over the age of 50.

My real estate clients and customers have the benefits of my successful management consulting career and education to help them realize their real estate goals.  My organizational and analytical skills give my clients the edge in their real estate transactions.  I am dedicated to helping you achieve your real estate goals with exacting standards and integrity.
