Services

Manning Properties is a full service real estate house. Established by the union of two real estate families, our professional atmosphere and local knowledge provide the perfect climate for any real estate need. Our services include:

Brokerage

Listing Process:
Selecting the right broker to represent you as either seller or buyer, tenant or landlord is a fundamental element of real estate exchanges. The broker is your resource to eliminate personal biases and allow a preliminary look into the marketplace. In order to maximize your time, effort and proceeds, we suggest using a broker. If not us, then choose another firm. Please do not make a critical error with your real estate in an attempt to eliminate commission. Brokers are paid professionals and provide an integral service to the public.

Manning Properties has been in the real estate business for over the past 35 years. Our impeccable reputation and ability to make “good deals” are the primary reasons that Manning Properties is the right broker for you.

Client Comments:

Marketing:
Our firm believes that marketing is not just about what we sell, but who we are. With signs and marketing techniques that are recognizable from a mile away, we have our name on your property. It is a relationship that lasts beyond the listing period, negotiations and the closing of the transaction. Our return clientele is extensive because of the way we do business

The specific means of marketing properties are technological, physical and verbal. We have a state of the art web presence that attracts from the local, state and national marketplaces. In addition, our properties can be found in many other real estate search companies that include the Georgia Multiple Listing Service, Dorey’s Real Estate Listings and Costar Data’s Broker Service.

Our physical marketing is driven by our signs and our interaction in the market as brokers, appraisers and investors. Very few of our listed properties terminate due to expiration. Most of the properties we sell are brokered between two parties with juxtaposed needs. We find the right sellers for the right buyers at the right time. Lastly, our discussion of properties with others active in real estate stimulates a great deal of activity. When former customers have a real estate need, they know whom to call.

Appraisals

The process of valuing properties is a fundamental means of meeting prospective clients as well as orienting these clients with the quality of our work. We provide only the best in our appraisal of real estate. With a combined appraisal experience of over four decades, our reports are used by most real estate and legal professionals. All of our appraisals are self-contained full narratives and signed by a MAI designated appraiser. These meet all the USPAP requirements as set forth by the Appraisal Institute and consider all three approaches to valuation, the cost, sales comparison and income approaches. The completed report is professionally bound, retained in our records for at least three years and completely confidential. Our client list includes many Metropolitan municipalities, both cities and counties, Federal agencies, attorneys, certified public accountants, tax planners, trustees, executors, lending institutions and others. We have extensive experience as expert witnesses and as consultants. Many of our appraisal engagements involve work that other firms found too difficult or too costly to perform.
