When Don and Charlotte Latham, LaDana and Lonnie moved to Atlanta in 1982, Atlanta was boasting a population of just over one million. In just 25 years the Latham family has witnessed the growth in the Queen City of the South to more than 5 million in the Greater Atlanta area. For the last 15 years The Latham Group: Don, LaDana and Lonnie have helped fifty plus families a year move to or within Atlanta. Don moved into real estate work in 1992 following a 25-year career in church ministry. Previously, Don and Charlotte served as missionaries on the island of Trinidad for 5 years where LaDana and Lonnie were born. Don’s training in ministry and his Master’s Degree in Psychology and Counseling have been vital to his work in real estate consulting and sales. Don will use his knowledge, experience, and training to make buying or selling your largest investment enjoyable for you. Don began his real estate career with Northside Realty. Johnny Isakson (Senator) was president of Northside Realty, founded by his father Ed Isakson. Don was recognized as Rookie of the Year and presented with the Ed Isakson award by Isakson who said Don’s integrity and work ethic was like that of his father. In the past, the award was only presented to main office brokers. Don was pleasantly surprised (shocked!) when LaDana graduated from the University of Georgia with her degree in Interior Design and told him she wanted to join The Latham Group. He was again surprised when Lonnie graduated from Harding University with his degree in Professional Sales and said he too wanted to return to Atlanta and join The Latham Group. The team now brings to the table 40 years combined experience, many different talents and abilities…all to serve our clients. From the beginning one of our goals has been to be accessible to our clients. In the early days, Don‘s voice mail said, “You have reached Don Latham. I can’t take your call right now. Just leave a message for me and I will call you back. If I don’t call you back…you can assume…I’m dead!” We have always made service our motto! Thanks to Lonnie’s training in Professional Sales and technology, The Latham Group has state of the art systems that keep your purchase or listing on track. They make your listing available on websites showcasing real estate online. They use full color fliers with multiple photos for your home. The Latham Group keeps in contact with over 2,000 past clients and sphere of influence contacts with direct mailings. We do not forget you when your transaction closes. When, LaDana and Lonnie joined the team, Don reminded them, “Remember, we are not selling anything…We are just helping our clients realize their real estate dreams.”
