Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mr. Waugh is an expert communicator and a pleasure to do business with. I have been frustrated on numerous occasions with brokers who try and fail to hide their “commission breath” and look at me the way a lion looks at a slab of raw meat! Grant is not that type of person. I believe he understands that his clients are human beings who deserve respect and a fair deal.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have known Grant for close to 20 years now. We went to college together and I have been involved both professionally and personally in his life. Grant is a man of servitude and loyalty. He strives to do his best in all aspects of life and is successful in his life passions. Grant is intuitive and highly knowledgeable in general, but really shines when it comes to anything related to the residential real estate market and industry as a whole. I would highly recommend you speak with Grant as he gets things DONE, and to boot, does it the right way.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find out what my home is worth in North Metro Atlanta?
To get an accurate home value, you need more than an online estimate. I run a personalized market analysis using local comps, current trends, and your home's condition. Whether you're in Alpharetta, Roswell, Milton, Johns Creek, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, East Cobb, Canton, Cumming, Marietta, Woodstock—or anywhere else in Georgia—I can give you a clear picture of what your home is really worth.
Is now a good time to sell a house in areas like Roswell, Marietta, or Johns Creek?
It depends on your goals and the property, but many neighborhoods across Roswell, Alpharetta, East Cobb, Milton, and Cumming are still seeing strong buyer activity. If your home is priced and presented well, you can absolutely get traction. I'll help you decide if now's the right time based on the data—not hype.
How long does it take to buy a home in North Metro Atlanta?
If you're pre-approved and serious, buyers in areas like Dunwoody, Woodstock, Sandy Springs, and Canton often go under contract in a few weeks. In competitive pockets of Alpharetta or Milton, it might take a little longer to land the right fit. My job is to help you stay ready and move fast when the opportunity is right.
Do you only work in Alpharetta and Roswell?
Alpharetta and Roswell are my home base—I was born in Roswell and grew up in the North Fulton area, so I know these communities inside and out. But I serve the entire Metro Atlanta and North Georgia region. Not only do I cover those areas, I've successfully helped clients buy and sell in Milton, Johns Creek, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, East Cobb, Canton, Cumming, Marietta, Woodstock—and far beyond. If you're buying, selling, or investing anywhere in Georgia, I've got you covered.
What's the difference between buying in Roswell, Marietta, or Milton?
Each area has its own vibe. Alpharetta and Milton offer newer homes and master-planned communities, while Roswell and Marietta offer established neighborhoods with character. Woodstock and Canton have great growth potential, and areas like Sandy Springs and Dunwoody are ideal for those who want closer city access. I help buyers compare what's most important for their lifestyle, commute, and long-term plans.
What should I know before buying a home in areas like East Cobb, Cumming, or Woodstock?
You'll want to be pre-approved, know your budget, and understand how fast the market moves in your specific price range. Whether you're looking in East Cobb, Cumming, or Woodstock, I'll guide you through the process so you feel confident from day one.
Can you help me buy or sell investment property in Georgia?
Yes—I'm an investor myself, and I've helped clients with flips, long-term rentals, and short-term rentals across Metro Atlanta and North Georgia. I also have a licensed general contractor in my family, so I've got the right connections—from rehab crews to property managers—to help you find and maximize the right deal.
How much does it cost to sell a house in Georgia?
Typical seller costs include commission, prorated taxes, attorney fees, and any agreed-upon repairs. I'll walk you through your exact numbers upfront—no surprises.
How competitive is the market right now in places like Johns Creek, Dunwoody, or Canton?
It varies, but homes in move-in-ready condition in places like Johns Creek, Alpharetta, Woodstock, and Dunwoody are still seeing strong activity. Strategy matters—pricing, timing, and presentation can make or break your outcome. I'll help you stand out in whatever market you're in.
Do you work in the North Georgia mountains?
Yes! I've helped many clients find their ideal home in the North Georgia mountains—from Blue Ridge to Lake Burton, Cherry Log to McCaysville, Blairsville to Dahlonega. I own and have personally renovated properties in North Georgia, and I've helped clients purchase everything from second homes and investment cabins to forever homes, raw land, and vacation properties. If you're looking to buy or sell in the mountains, I can help you find the right spot and make a smart move.
