Babs Price is a real estate expert specializing in the communities north of Atlanta with a proven track-record of successes.
Real estate has been in her family for many years. She attributes her passions and successes to her father, a residential investor who introduced her to the industry - he taught her the ins and outs of touring property, investigating the pros and cons of an investment and the emotional trials of a real estate transition.
'[When he wasn’t investing in apartments,] my dad was a physician. After ‘dragging me along’ on his excursions, he would take me on house calls and to the hospital to see his patients,' she says. 'As a teenager, I would pore over the classified ads to read about what was happening in the local market, and just after college, I bought my first house. It was a rental property.'
Prior to real estate, Babs began her career in the dental industry as a registered dental hygienist, practicing in Augusta, Buckhead Crabapple, Cumming and Macon.
'My husband, Craig, and I began dating in college, and we had to travel to see each other,' said Babs. 'One day, while riding the Greyhound to Buckhead (my parents were not fond of me driving on I-75!), a movie crew from Boston asked some of the riders to participate in a film. I volunteered, and in my finest Maconese, said ‘Go Greyhound!’'
'Months later, my volunteer work turned into an appearance in a Greyhound advertisement. My patient at the time was an attorney. He told me to get residuals for my work, and thanks to him, I received them and bought - you guessed it - real estate!'
After 28 years in the dental industry, Babs became a REALTOR®. With passion, an impressive network, marketing expertise and the global exposure only offered through the Sotheby’s International Realty® brand, Babs represents buyers and sellers in Big Canoe, as well as Alpharetta, Buckhead, Cumming, Cherokee County, Marietta, Peachtree Hills and Roswell.
'My sellers know that I truly care,' she says. 'I am not just trying to sell a house, I’m trying to sell their house so that they may move on to the next chapter of their lives. With the renowned Sotheby’s International Realty® brand and worldwide presence behind me, your home will be advertised to a global clientele and receive the attention it deserves. My buyers know that I will work diligently to help find a wonderful new home so they, too, can begin a new chapter.'
Babs currently resides on a mountain in the community of Big Canoe with her husband. Every spring, she dedicates much of her time to the Big Canoe Chapel’s Women’s Guild fundraiser, The Gala, benefiting 38 local charities.
