Christa Huffstickler Founder and CEO, License Partner
“When I founded Engel & Völkers Atlanta in 2017, I never could have imagined that we would be creating this company full of driven, kind, dynamic, collaborative real estate professionals. I envisioned a place where agents could feel valued, supported and included, and this is something we make a priority within our organization. Our administrative, marketing and support staff are second to none, but what really sets them a part is the fact that they truly care about our agents and about their business. I am grateful to have an extraordinary leadership team, with each bringing their own unique set of skills to our company, with depth of experience and expertise to assist our Advisors.
Engel & Völkers Atlanta is a place where agents come to become skilled Advisors, and the support of our global brand and connection to Engel & Völkers Americas and Engel & Völkers Gmbh, based in Hamburg, Germany, yields an extraordinary breadth of reach, network of referrals, and access to unrivaled resources.
Engel & Völkers Atlanta is truly a real estate company like no other.

The essence of this feeling combined with the very best tools available is what sets Engel & Völkers Atlanta apart from the industry and, what makes it more than a real estate company; it’s a place we call home.”

Chris Burell
Chief Growth Officer & Qualifying Broker
“I was honored to have the opportunity to be asked to join the Engel & Völkers’ Leadership Team in 2024. Having spent almost 20 years in the industry and working for several luxury real estate firms, I can honestly say from day one, when I walked in the office, I knew I had found my home at E&V. The energy in the office is contagious. Advisors and staff are truly passionate about what they do and enjoy serving their clients! Christa Huffstickler, our CEO and Founder, is a visionary and amazing business strategist. She and the team are constantly raising the bar as it relates to cutting edge marketing, innovative technologies, and nurturing a culture of true collaboration. All of E&V works diligently not just to understand the current trends and market conditions but use data and intel to forecast for the future.
I have never met such an incredible team of leaders and staff who genuinely love what they do and work extremely hard to help our Advisors grow their business each and every day. Our Advisors are at the center of every decision we make. I think the big difference is that other companies talk about innovation and collaboration, but here it is embedded into the DNA of every action and activity we do.”
Kristen Skebe
Sandy Springs Managing Broker
“I have been honored to be involved and included in a company such as Engel & Völkers, which has established a reputation for excellence, distinguished expertise, and authentic connections.

It is my pleasure to welcome new Advisors to our EV family, as this is truly what it feels like to be part of an environment where mutual support and encouragement are paramount, even in times of adversity. This brand inspires me to strive for greater accomplishments and pursue ongoing personal and professional growth.

“When I joined the Engel & Völkers Atlanta team in 2020, the trajectory of my real estate career changed. Literally my business doubled, the marketing elevated my personal brand and the systems increased my clients success. Atlanta real estate can be competitive and challenging but Christa and our team has built a framework to increase agent’s business, cultivate a culture of collaboration, and an environment of growth and personalized experience in our industry that is unmatched. Simply put, our agents perform at a higher level for their clients and their results.
Everything from our Global network reach and connections to data driven analytics and innovative marketing make us the only choice for distinguished and sophisticated clients. Our local brand is known internationally as the proven leader not just in Atlanta, Georgia but throughout the entire country. The leadership team is forever improving agent and clients experience and staying on the leading edge of our dynamic market and trends. Some real estate brands talk about culture but we demonstrate it daily.”

“The most special thing about EV and what initially drew me to the brand is simply the people. You won’t find a more positive, supportive, and inclusive culture where each person is valued, and our unique personalities and strengths are recognized and appreciated. It is a culture that encourages collaboration, communication, and continuous learning that truly makes us the best of the best. I feel so fortunate to work with people who feel like family and who share the same vision and values as me. There is no doubt we are all in the right place.
What makes me the proudest to be with EV besides the people, is our reputation in the industry and the communities we serve. We have a track record of excellence and we’re known for our high standards of professionalism and integrity, not to mention our deep knowledge of the markets we serve. Our commitment to exceptional personalized service is unmatched and it’s evident in the longlasting connections we consistently build. We know that real estate is a relationship-driven business and I love that our philosophy is centered on the idea of building meaningful relationships, not just closing deals.”

From the CEO, Brokers, office staff, and high producing agents… I never felt like I was on my own. Everyone genuinely was here to assist and guide me. This company acknowledges that continuous growth is important, and creates a framework of collaborative opportunities for idea sharing, learning and career enhancement - my favorite being the Marketing Mastermind. It’s a testament that we all want to see one another be successful. I contribute the extraordinary comradely of the agents to Christa Huffstickler.

“I get pitch calls from other brokerages very often, which makes it easy to say why Engel & Völkers Atlanta is the place for me. Most brokerages provide a similar suite of tools to their Advisors to grow their business. However, EVA is about people. Ethics training is a required recurring course in our industry, but when it’s baked into the essence of who we are as a company, it elevates the experience for everyone and shows in how we work with our clients. EVA is exclusive yet inclusive; EVA is local yet global; and most of all EVA is all about business yet fun!”

“A couple of weeks ago, a friend I have known for a number of years asked me to join him at another company and to work with a team. My response was easy: No thanks. In fact I said, I will never leave this company... to which he replied: Why? My answer: Reputation, Integrity, and Management. Engel & Völkers has the reputation of being the fastest growing company in Metro Atlanta and is attracting the best caliber agents, with training and professionalism. EV as a company manages with integrity and does everything possible to make the right decision in every circumstance. Engel & Völkers has something no other company can claim: Our founder, and chairman of the company, is involved daily in the operation, the door is open for conversation, and she works alongside a full-time managing broker, full-time qualifying broker, as well as an in-house marketing team; every agent here has all the tools necessary to become successful. It’s really that simple and anyone would be proud to be a part of the team!”
- Mitchell Cox
