Shirley Gary Named to “The Thousand List” of Top Realtors®

Shirley Gary, owner and CEO of Engel & Völkers Atlanta North Fulton in Alpharetta and Engel & Völkers Buckhead Atlanta, has been named to the 15th annual The Thousand List of America's top 1,000 real estate sales professionals and teams. REAL Trends + Tom Ferry The Thousand, as advertised in The Wall Street Journal, is an annual, national awards ranking sponsored by REAL Trends—the Trusted Source—and Tom Ferry International coaching. Designees are recognized as the top one-tenth of one percent of more than 1.4 million licensed Realtors® nationwide.

The Thousand is divided into four categories, with each listing the top 250 Realtors®:

• Individual Agent – Sales Volume
• Individual Agent – Transaction Sides (either the buying or selling agent)
• Agent Team – Sales Volume
• Agent Team – Transaction Sides

Gary was honored in two categories: Individual Agent – Sales Volume and Individual Agent – Transaction Sides. Gary has received this honor multiple times, including the past four years in a row, consistently moving up in the ranking to the number one agent in both categories for metro Atlanta.

“I am extremely proud to be named again to The Thousand List and proud of my team at Engel & Völkers Buckhead Atlanta and Engel & Völkers Atlanta North Fulton for also earning the designation as #1 Engel & Völkers franchise in the greater Atlanta area,” said Gary. “Engel & Völkers Buckhead Atlanta was one of the first Engel & Völkers locations established in Atlanta, and it is ranked as a Global Leader within the brand’s worldwide network based on annual sales closings, thanks to the in-depth expertise our advisors have within our market and our ability to service international clients moving to the metro area.”
