“We are honored that Dianne chose to join Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty. In her first year with us, she became one of our Top Producers and continues to excel each and every year. It is her expertise, professionalism, energy and customer service that delivered such positive experiences for our clients.”
- Jenny Pruitt
“The Harnell Wolf Team was extraordinary to work with during the entire process. They were patient, responsive and very knowledgeable. They made the entire process of buying this home a pleasure. This is the second time I have worked with this team. They sold my other house, and again, they did a superb job advising us how to fix up the house so it would sell, and they set the price exactly right. I really appreciated how thorough this team was in making sure the house we bought was checked out and a good buy. They are very savvy negotiators, and in both cases, they got me great prices on both buying and selling my homes. I would recommend this team under any circumstances.”
- Teya R.
“I had such a great selling experience working with Dianne and Missi. They brokered an excellent deal that got me the price I wanted for my condo. They knew the market well and helped me get the condo ready for sale with the right paint colors and photography. They also had the connections to get access to the right buyer. Highly recommended.”
- Alan D.
“This is the fifth transaction I’ve done with Dianne and Missi. True to form, they gave me the best advice on pricing and marketing, were at every showing and brought me an offer over the list price within six days of listing. I was out of town, and they were available to be at my home for me for everything that needed to be done. You can’t go wrong, and I highly recommend.”
- Kate W.
“Dianne was not only our most expert REALTOR® but also became a valued friend through the process of buying our dream home! She was sensitive to my needs, moving to a new state and area, and very quickly understood exactly what my likes and dislikes were. She is a true professional that I continue to call upon for help in all areas!”
- Grace B.
“Dianne’s knowledge, approach and follow-through made my house-hunting experience a breeze. She listened to my needs, sorted through my wants and delivered, not just once but three times in a two-year period. Dianne helped me find a midtown condo, then after living out of state for seven years, negotiated a great deal on a larger and more comfortable condo and then quickly closed on the over-asking price sale of the first place she sold me. I would, without a doubt, recommend her services if you’re serious about finding your ideal property!”
- Kali F.
“Dianne was dynamite. From the first call, she was all over the listing with a consultant to deal with the unit’s appearance and assist with distributing unwanted furniture. We obtained a signed contract within a week at the fair sales price we were seeking and were able to close quickly. She was always available by phone or in person without delay, and she took the initiative through the contract negotiation and compliance period. We were very happy we chose her.”
- Paige A.“We have used Dianne to buy and sell five homes, and she has done an exceptional job each time! Some of the properties she helped us sell were very challenging, and we had tried several agents before she came on the scene. She was the only REALTOR® who could sell one of our homes after being on the market with other agents for three years. If there is such a thing as a rock star in REALTORS®, Dianne is it! She is extremely hardworking, intelligent and a joy to work with. She goes out of her way to help you in any way she can. She goes above and beyond what any other agent will do to sell your property. I cannot say enough about Dianne. Not only has she become our trusted REALTOR®, but she has become a dear friend. You will not find a more experienced, intelligent, hard-working REALTOR®. I give her five stars.”
