For the second consecutive year, Buckhead real estate broker Ben Hirsh has been named the #1 Individual Realtor in Atlanta with 2019 volume sales in excess of $84 million. This news comes at an inopportune time, given that the Atlanta REALTORS® Association gala scheduled for last weekend was canceled due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The ARA has existed for over 100 years and counts 10,000 members in metro Atlanta, making a #1 ranking a true accomplishment.
“I am honored to receive this recognition of my hard work in 2019. A big thank you to my clients who entrusted me to represent them last year. I was able to break my previous record of $79 million from 2018 and once again break the all-time record sales for the ARA,” said Ben Hirsh. “This is a bittersweet moment as so many people and businesses in our community are suffering from the total economic shutdown that has happened so suddenly. As we enter into a period of uncertainty, I will continue to be a resource for my clients through this time.”
In addition to this award, Ben was also recently listed among the Top 500 Most Powerful Leaders by Atlanta Magazine in January of 2020. Want to hear his advice to buyers and sellers in the wake of COVID-19? Check out this article where he shares his insights.
