Agnes Scott College, Columbia Theological Seminary and the successful City of Decatur Schools add education to the mix. Check out the weekly farmer’s market. Enjoy free concerts on Decatur’s unique public square. MARTA train service direct to Atlanta. Lively night life, music and bar scene. Atlanta's best restaurant destination. We look forward to assisting you with the purchase or sale of your Decatur home.

Many of your staff members will live in these neighborhoods. Our expertise in Northlake communities is unsurpassed! Northlake regional mall and surrounding neighborhoods are located inside I-285 and are an easy commute to Emory University or Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

Who is Sally English?
Atlanta Georgia is both my childhood home and the community I have chosen to live in as a parent and a discerning consumer. I attended Henderson High School (DeKalb County) in the 70's and my father, Bill Bryant, was President of the Greater Atlanta Homebuilders Association, After High School I attended Vanderbilt University in Nashville Tenn, graduated with a dual degree in Engineering and Mathematics and met my husband Tim.
After Vanderbilt I joined Westinghouse Electric and began the "see America" corporate tour. Westinghouse sent me to Atlanta, Boston, Birmingham and finally to New York City where I worked in the Industrial Sales Division while my husband attended graduate school at Columbia University. After Tim graduated from Columbia we made the executive decision to move back to Atlanta to rejoin our family.
My real estate career hit the ground running as I started a homebuilding company and small real estate brokerage. This worked great for the years prior to the birth of my third child. After that I made the move over to real estate sales and have been there ever after.
Why do I do what I do - I love it. I enjoy helping people find their dream home or move off on a journey to a new city. I'm a people person with good financial skills. Most of all - I work with integrity and seek to gain the trust and approval of all my clients. I look forward to making your home dreams come true.
"Real estate is our second language."
