Testimonials


Woodmore - Jody Foster Testimonial
“There are gems and diamonds and then there is the Hope Diamond. Debbie Sonenshine is the Hope Diamond of Atlanta Real Estate! Patient beyond words, knowledgeable about locations/schools/traffic, always going above and beyond. Best of all, she is brutally honest and very funny. We had a blast looking for homes. The only negative after we bought our home is we don’t get to see Debbie on a regular basis. Every once in a blue moon, you find customer service that is so amazing it takes your breath away. That is the experience with Debbie and her team. A+++”

harris trail scott hostetler testimonial
“Finding the right agent to sell a one of a kind luxury estate masterpiece meant finding the most experienced and trusted agent who clearly understood the special alluring qualities of the property, its enticing spaces and could effectively communicate the captivating story behind the place.  It’s the agent’s proven, effective and impactful marketing skills with local, national and international reach capabilities that engages high end real estate buyers through storytelling targeting those best fit to the purchase. Capturing the buyer’s imagination while solidifying their connection to the estate’s lifestyle experience is the art of the luxury real estate sale.

Debbie Sonenshine, Coldwell Banker International’s Top 1% Agent, possesses these rare qualities as well as a comprehensive knowledge of the luxury real estate market.  Sonenshine accurately assessed the estate’s value, unique characteristics, narrative and didn’t rest on her laurels.  Her ability to quickly connect with the property and buyers as well as her excellent communication and negotiation skills was critical when we received multiple offers for consideration within hours and days of listing.  Sonenshine accurately identified and communicated with me the changing market conditions and extraordinary window of opportunity when marketing our distinctive high-end property when it was at its peak value and we formed a modern and innovative strategy to maximize exposure and showcase the estate’s storyline that she executed brilliantly.  Debbie is a highly accomplished, honest and dedicated agent with the rare skills and qualities necessary to effectively market and sell luxury real estate.  My experience working with Debbie was most enjoyable!”

“Debbie is the quintessential real estate agent. She has it all! She is professional, knows the Atlanta market and tells it like it is (in the best way). She was responsive and guided us thru the process every step of the way – and then some. She is full service and I was happy to pay her commission as she earned every penny. She is phenomenal and I recommend her without reservation.”

Wolf brook - Helene Tuck Testimonial
“Debbie was awesome to work with! She was with us every step of the way. She gave us great advice on how to get the house ready for showings. What she told us to do worked! The day we put our house on the market, it sold with the first showing, a little bit over asking price! Seven hours and a great offer! It doesn’t get better than that! When we decided to use Debbie as our realtor, we went with our gut feeling. We are so glad we did! I would recommend her to all of our family and friends!”

~ Helene Tuck (Sandy Springs)

“Working with Debbie was wonderful! She is a true professional. She was easy to work with and always responded to our many questions quickly and thoroughly.

~ John  & Jennifer Farrow (Buckhead)

“Debbie has seen me through many transitions in my life, both difficult and joyful. Debbie is so much more than just a real estate agent though, as she enters a transitional time of your life with the very best of professional expertise and a genuine and caring heart that truly wants the best for you. It has always given much needed clarity, sanity, and calm to know that I am in the best hands possible.”

Gaskin - Carlos Diaz Testimonial
“We have known Debbie for years as an engaged member of the local community, so she was a logical choice as the listing agent for us. And we were well-served to have all of her knowledge and experience work for us. Her knowledge of the market and her ability to communicate that to us allowed us to make prudent decisions about getting our house ready for market. Once the house was listed, Debbie proved to be adept at conducting a negotiation that yielded a very satisfactory outcome quickly. We’re happy to recommend her enthusiastically.”

~ Carlos Diaz (East Cobb)


Riverwood Dr - Jeffrey Grossman Testimonial
“Debbie is an unbelievably responsive agent!! She’s also honest, caring, knowledgeable, smart and has a great sense of humor. We moved here from out of town and didn’t really know much about neighborhoods/areas that would fit our family’s needs. Debbie helped immensely during our bidding process, our thorough inspection and our quick closing! She is truly the best to work with…Debbie is super!!!”

~ Jeffrey Grossman (Sandy Springs)


howell - Zach Rifkin Testimonial
“Debbie is the BEST! The client is her only priority and she will go above and beyond to appease her clients and get the best deal for them possible. Her knowledge of the local areas and her connections within the industry are impressive and I would not choose anyone else to have on my side when I am selling or purchasing my next house! THE BEST IN ATL!!!!”

~ Zach Rifkin (Sandy Springs, Atlanta)


Bluestone - Mike Weiser testimonial
“We put our trust in Debbie completely. She is very devoted to her work, more than most agents. She found the house we bought after she went back to the office at the end of the day. We went with her that same day to view the house and bought it the next morning. No One had a chance to bid against us. Then we needed to sell our condo. She brought in a person at no charge to stage the place. The home sold in one week at a great price. That is Debbie!!”

~ Mike Weiser (Sandy Springs)


bittersweet trail - Richard and Joan Blumenfeld testimonial
“After trying to sell our house ourselves, and then using two other real estate companies to help us sell it (to no avail) we interviewed Debbie. “Debbie Sells Houses” is the correct slogan for this agent. Her calm demeanor and honest approach helped us realize that other people may not see the house in the same light the owner does. She put us at ease, so we were able to see our house in her eyes, instead of just our own.  She marketed our house in every way possible.  She stressed the main selling point of the property, and before long, our house had sold! Debbie is the ultimate professional, and we highly recommend her to anyone who is trying to sell a home.”

~ Richard and Joan Blumenfeld (Dunwoody)


Littlebrook - Bob & Charlene Levinson
“We listed with Debbie in February 2020 and she found us a buyer for our house and a new house for us to purchase with great service. During the uncertain times which followed in March before we closed on our new home she was always there helping and understanding. I highly recommend her for all her talents.”

~ Bob and Charlene Levinson (Dunwoody, Sandy Springs)
