About Solomon Greene

Owners looking to sell have learned of custom promotions, honest market insights, and more that helped their Metro Atlanta Homes sell fast, smoothly, and for more, while buyers have heard of resources that helped ease their paths to homeownership, such as no-down-payment mortgages and programs for local first-time home buyers that include up to $12,500 in down payment assistance.   My goal in every transaction is to make the home-buying and selling experience smooth and successful, exceeding expectations.  

Please call me today for tailored solutions and professional guidance in your next real estate transaction with the highest level of confidence and privacy.

You'll communicate with one compassionate, knowledgeable, and accountable agent, then be able to move on and make an informed decision about buying or selling, possible changes in home value, how to evaluate the areas of Gwinnett County, and more, all while knowing that your private information and remarks remain secure.  I'm eager to be considered for an interview when you're ready to buy or sell, but you make that call.  Right now, let's just get the answers to questions you have about Metro Atlanta and Gwinnett County.

Gain an Advantage over Competitors in Tough Bidding Wars

Give yourself the best chance at winning with a proven list of trusted local lenders who can quickly close on mortgages involving the various national and local home buying programs for eligible borrowers, including mortgage financing at up to 100%.  Many of my clients have used the funds originally saved for their down payment for closing costs, offers above list price, home warranties, and other incentives that appeal to sellers with multiple offers.

Greater Peace of Mind

Lets face it.  Requests for 10-day inspection periods often place your offer lower in the stack for Gwinnett Homes these days.  Put my list of affordable, responsive, and thorough home inspectors to work quickly to review a property once the offer has been accepted, so you have greater peace of mind with your purchase.  Then remain at peace through the services of a local insurance agent from my list of providers, including those who offer coverage for earthquakes (yes, that's a thing here), floods, standard coverage, and more.

Local appraisers and trusted moving and staging companies are available to seller clients seeking the highest return on their investment in the shortest time.

Frequently Asked Questions about Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker,  Agent, and REALTIST, Solomon Greene

Why is an agent from Cobb County offering real estate services in Gwinnett County, GA?

My broker's main office is in Marietta, but we have paid taxes, lived, worked, learned, played, and served in Northern Gwinnett County since 2006, where we continue to make our home.

Why are two logos associated with your brand, Solomon Greene Real Estate, and Drake Realty, Inc.?

Solomon Greene Real Estate is my personal brand, but all real estate listings promoted by a licensed agent are required to be, and therefore are, promoted in the name of my broker using their name, address, phone number, and logo.  This gives the public an additional resource to call about my performance, if needed. 

Why doesn't Solomon Greene appear as an agent by listings on the popular national websites?

As a member of both FMLS and Georgia MLS, sellers should know that their property listings trusted in my care will, indeed, appear on all of the leading national real estate websites.  But I am an extreme advocate for the rules and client privacy, and those websites, even the "sponsored" links at the top of the world's leading search engine, record initial telephone calls that agents make to real estate consumers who express interest in hearing from someone, collect personal data, sell it to other businesses, and use it in other questionable ways, often without the consent of the consumer (disclosing that a call is being recorded is not required in Georgia).    Agents who appear in real estate listings also pay a hefty fee to be placed in those results.   I won't pay a lead generation company or an unlicensed person for a lead!  Those companies get listings from FMLS and Georgia MLS, where we input the data and images, and the consumer can find the same property information and contact a single local, experienced real estate agent directly without compromising their privacy.   Granted, the websites referenced here show my contact information for each property, but the listing agent often appears in the listing details, while other local agents' websites can be found a few pages beyond the first result on major search engines. 

Why does your history reflect so few sales?

Since 2006, I have helped several home buyers and sellers close successful real estate transactions and helped solve other local residential real estate challenges.   Meanwhile, many Metro Atlanta "Top Producers" pay for, and still compete for, clients because the platforms they use send callers' contact information to multiple agents and other businesses.  As a result, many of those consumers get calls from multiple agents, often weeks after choosing an agent.   My fewer sales over the years reflect my decision to build my own business rather than pay a company to do it for me and add unnecessary costs and controls to purchase and sale transactions.  I also make several trips each week to homes I'm trusted to care for during a listing period.  While I am open to listing properties across Metro Atlanta, I focus on limiting travel time while serving owners (and buyers) in Gwinnett County, where thousands of agents and their referrals already compete.   

I am fortunate to practice real estate with fewer sales transactions, and the client experience is the same, maybe even better than with other agents.  I stay well-trained in the ever-evolving real estate market, use the same Georgia Association of REALTORS Forms as other agents, listings trusted in my care display on the same national real estate websites as other agents, and I maintain strong relationships with industry professionals; my broker is also accessible to clients, so the trust new clients place in my services is well-placed. 

Do you only serve Gwinnett County, GA owners and home buyers?

I evaluate every opportunity to serve buyers and sellers individually.   In general, it is my pleasure to serve owners throughout Metro Atlanta with the sale of their homes, but  I can offer the best service to buyers looking to buy in Gwinnett County.
