-

Atlanta, GA – September 19, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — Mark Spain and the real estate team with his namesake were named one of America’s top real estate team by The Wall Street Journal and REAL Trends. The Mark Spain Team was #32 nationally for most transaction sides and #72 for sales volume.

The Thousand Top Real Estate Professionals was announced September 6, 2011 with four separate categories honoring the top 250 residential agents and agent teams for excellence in:

  • Individual Sales Professionals – Sales volume
  • Individual Sales Professionals – Transaction sides (in each real estate transaction, there are two sides that can be represented by a real estate agent: a buyer’s and a seller’s.)
  • Team Professionals – Sales Volume
  • Team Professionals – Transaction sides

“Becoming a member of such an elite group as The Thousand Top Real Estate Professionals is an incredible accomplishment in any market, but what Spain did during these challenging times is impressive on so many levels,” said Marti Gallardo, vice president, Global Sales, Vertical Markets Advertising for The Wall Street Journal. “His efforts topped 99.99 percent of the more than 1 million REALTORS nationwide.”

This ranking of the nation’s top real estate professionals has been around for several years and, each year, the Mark Spain Team is prominently on the top third of the list. The Thousand Top Real Estate Professionals list is the only independent study of its kind where all results from individual submissions are independently verified through third party sources.

Mark Spain Team’s 2010 sales exceeded $72 million with 367 transaction sides. He may be the youngest agent to exceed $1 billion in career gross sales, which he and his team accomplished in 2006. Ever concerned with responding to the needs of metro Atlanta families, the team expanded into short sales and foreclosure prevention in the last few years. Spain started a website, http://www.GreaterAtlantaForeclosureHelp.com, to help local homeowners in trouble.

In addition, Spain has been Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource (SFR) certified by the National Association of Realtors and earned the prestigious Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) designation in 2009. He is also a graduate of the Five Star Institute Center for Short Sale Success.

In 2011, Mark Spain switched from RE/MAX, where he had already been inducted into the RE/MAX Hall of Fame and earned the Circle of Legends Award from RE/MAX International. Spain and his team are now affiliated with Keller Williams and are based out of Keller Williams Realty North Atlanta at 5780 Windward Parkway in Alpharetta.
