Testimonials
Chelsea Monaco took the time to understand (and prioritize) everything I was looking for. moving from out of state, she also made sure to match my pace both when looking for a home and closing. I never felt pressured or rushed, and she dealt with my lackluster communication with a smile. Thanks for finding me my new home, Chelsea!
If you want the best real estate team in Atlanta, look no further than Anna K Intown. My loft was on the market for only 1 day and was put under contract… but the leg work and communication Elizabeth and the rest of the team put in was second to none. I will always appreciate everything that Anna K and especially Elizabeth Martin did for us. You have our business for life!
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Chelsea on the Anna K Intown team for the purchase of our first home, and words cannot express our gratitude to her, and the entire team, for making this process such a wonderful experience. Chelsea was very professional, accessible, patient, and supportive. She took the time to learn about us and our needs in order to present us with the best options. She was very flexible and always willing to accommodate our countless last-minute showing requests. When we finally found our dream home, she went above and beyond to make sure that even in this competitive market, we got exactly what we were looking for within our budget. Chelsea gave us the most thoughtful closing gift and her team has been so helpful post-closing, as well. Sarah and Nikki have been consistently checking in to make sure that we have everything that we need as we begin this new chapter of home ownership. Thank you so much to the Anna K Intown team for their help during such an exciting time for me and my family.
As a first time homebuyer I was very nervous entering this next phase of life. Even before committing to anything Ryan T. made himself available to answer questions and educate me throughout the process. He was able to help me find a home and close in record time. The entire Anna K Intown team was extremely helpful when I had a major issue arise after closing. I cannot sing their praises enough for making a daunting experience a little less painful.
I have told all of my friends & associates if looking to purchase/sell a home or just have questions about the process Ryan and Anna K Intown should be your first/last stop. I never had any issues regarding availability, professionalism or quality of service. Thank you for helping my dream come true of home ownership!
We recently purchased a home with the help of Ryan Todd and the Anna K team and to say we were impressed is an understatement. Ryan was a pleasure to work with and was super professional and responsive all throughout the process. If you are looking for a realtor to work with I highly recommend Ryan and the Anna K team!
We worked with Chelsea Monaco to find our dream home in Atlanta in June 2021. Chelsea was a dream to work with - her drive and passion for helping her clients find the perfect home was very apparent. Chelsea handled everything from helping us find a mortgage broker to recommending maintenance and painters. She even offered to help us find a contractor to fix something in our house months after we purchased it! She has checked on us several times over the last six months, offering to help if we ever need anything - the kind of service that is impossible to find these days. Chelsea is incredibly knowledgeable and quick with the ever changing Atlanta real estate market. Do yourself a favor and hire her as your realtor - you will not be disappointed.
Working with Anna K Intown was a joy! Everyone we were in contact with was helpful, professional, and very caring. We felt like we were in the absolute best hands during our home-buying process. Elizabeth Martin is an amazing realtor! Incredibly knowledgeable, caring, friendly, hard working, and always quick to respond. I would recommend her to anyone in the market.
Used Anna Ks team, Ryan Todd specifically, and was beyond impressed. Attention to detail, open communication, and availability to chat through questions was unrivaled. To say he and the team exceeded my expectations from an execution and customer service point, would be an understatement. Definitely found an answer to if any friends or family ever ask me for "real estate suggestions"...Anna K Intown every time!
Anna K and her team have supported us through the sale of our home during a relocation to the West coast. Anna leads a top notch team, and stood out from the very beginning when I interviewed several realtors. Top professionals in every aspect of the business, from financial analysis to determine list price all the way through closing the sale. Highly responsive, extremely knowledgeable and component, especially in the intown market, great to work with and trustworthy. I highly recommend her and her team.
In addition I learned, that Anna and her team also enjoy an outstanding reputation within the realtor community.
Jess was great to work with. She worked hard to help me find the right place for me and was very helpful in making the transition as easy as possible.
The entire team and operation is amazing. A very smart and professional way to sell a house. They helped with the sale of my moms house after we lost my father and took a difficult situation and handled it. We left it to them and they swept in and did not disappoint. All of the people (packers, movers etc) they recommended we're top notch. Turn it over to the best team!!!
I could not have been happier with our experience. Jess Phillips was our agent and she was on top of everything to say the least. She anticipated our needs and resolved a number of conflicts to get us to closing, and was consistently a few steps ahead of pretty much anyone involved in our home search and purchase. She also protected us and saved us money and headaches more than once! Highly recommended this group and Jess.
We came across Anna K Intown team while researching for an in-town specialist to market our Reynoldstown townhome project. The team is everything they represented, in-depth knowledge of the market, strong marketing capability, end to end solutions for builders and sellers alike. The team is a great reflection of our product, modern, urban and sophisticated (kudos to Elizabeth, Ashley, Sarah and everyone who worked tirelessly on the sales of the homes)!
Having worked with both the listing and buying sides of Anna K Intown team I can honestly say they are a top notch real estate company. Both Ryan (buying side) and Ashley (selling side) were extremely knowledgeable and diligent in ensuring that we purchased and sold our existing home as quick as possible. If you are looking for an agent in the Atlanta/Metro area these are the people you need to partner with.
Anna K's entire team is FANTASTIC. From the moment we started working together, I felt taken care of. I truly appreciated how each person on her team has a clearly defined role and I knew who could assist me at all times. They were excellent about reminders and checklists before closing, and offered to help in many ways. I have never experienced this level of service and personal attention in a real estate transaction. Thank you so much for your professionalism and for making me feel like part of your family!
We are so grateful to have John Ryan as our realtor! He has helped us with 2 home purchases now since 2019, and helped my parents buy a home last year too. ... Read more

I couldn't have purchased my first home without the amazing people at Anna K Intown! My boyfriend and I started looking for a new home in December and during our first meeting with Jess, we knew we needed her by our side! Read More…
I had a great experience with Morgan and Jennifer as a first-time homeowner. They guided me through the entire process and was able to close in record time. Would definitely recommend this team.
We had a wonderful experience using Anna K to sell our house and buy a new one in Atlanta! Each one of their talented team members were attentive, knowledgeable and total go-getters. They know their stuff and will exceed all expectations! We were able to get WAY over asking price for our house in one weekend as well as find our dream home. The Anna K team are total rock stars!
Jess Phillips and the team at Anna K Intown were incredibly helpful in our housing search. House hunting out of state is never easy and Jess was amazing, she went above and beyond and helped us secure the perfect home for us! Highly recommend Jess Phillips and the Anna K Intown team!
