"Ashley's in-depth knowledge of the market and analysis of our property ensured we started the sale process with a winning pricing strategy. She orchestrated an active sales campaign, holding numerous open houses and reaching out to her contacts within the industry as well as her network of former clients. Throughout, her follow-up, attention to detail and insightful recommendations were unerring. She handled the price negotiations most adroitly and shepherded us through the closing process smoothly and efficiently. She kept us updated every step of the way, promptly responded to any questions we had and was a delight to work with. You will be doing yourself a tremendous service choosing Ashley as your realtor."

"I cannot recommend Ashley enough. She helped my family purchase our first home. We had such a wonderful experience with her, we knew we wanted to work with her when we sold it a few years later. She is dedicated, responsive, and a pleasure to work with!"

"Ashley was wonderful to work with, and I would definitely go back to her again if I get ready to sell or buy. She was very attentive, flexible, worked hard for me, and helped me get the best deal I could have hoped for. - Ashley was able to get me a 2 year home warranty from the seller because the hot water heater, HVAC unit, and appliances were all original to the unit and I was concerned they would break soon. - Ashley got me into the unit before closing so I could take measurements, etc. with contractors which was very helpful. -Ashley helped me do all this in the middle of a pandemic which was also very helpful to have someone so easy to work with in such an difficult time."

"Ashley knows her business. We had an offer on our house before we had planned to put it on the market. Ashley made things easy for us every step of the way. We would recommend Ashley to all of our family and friends. She is the best."

"Amazing Agent. Helped me with a rental property and helped me when it was time to sell my rental property, getting me the best price for the time. I would highly recommend Ashley!"

"Ashley is excellent with communication and worked diligently to help us find a home the was best suited for our family. We lived out state as we were searching for our new home so we did a number of virtual tours with her which worked out well and was extremely convenient."

"Ashley is professional knowledgeable and most importantly warm. Selling a home or buying a home is a major life decision. Ashley Guided us on what we needed to do for pictures and the open house. She was spot on and our house sold quickly and effortlessly. I would use Ashley for selling or buying a home!"

"Ashley is the best! She is friendly, reliable, knowledgeable and honest. She is dedicated to getting the job done! She sold our home in just a few days!"

May 23, 2022
"Ashley did an amazing job helping us find our perfect home during the pandemic when there was no inventory. She found us a home off-market when the negotiation fell apart on the home we were trying to buy. She did more than we could’ve imagined to help us sell our current home and buy our new home. She went above and beyond and never got rattled through some very tense moments. We highly recommend Ashley Riley to anyone looking to buy or sell!"

May 23, 2022
"Very cordial and pleasant to communicate with and her support staff was helpful and responsive as well. Her entire team did a wonderful job. We were traveling and the attention to our requests were handled."

May 23, 2022
"We moved from out of town and had to make multiple trips to see homes on odd hours and weekends. Ashley made every effort to accommodate our schedule on multiple visits and even visited homes through facetime for us when we couldn't make it. She assisted with multiple home offers before eventually landing in our current home. We would certainly recommend Ashley and her whole team."

May 23, 2022
"We were moving from out of state and Ashely helped us tremendously. From virtual tours, knowledge of the area and everything in between Ashley helped us through the process."

May 23, 2022
"Ashley was absolutely amazing to work with during our home search and made it possible for us to buy the perfect home, even in this historically difficult housing market. She was always responsive and a pleasure to be around during our home showings. The process of looking at so many homes and submitting several offers was daunting and frustrating at times, but with Ashley's guidance, we were able to find an amazing home and won a multiple offer situation. We could not recommend Ashley more and are so grateful to her for helping us during this crazy market!"

Ashley was amazing from start to sold. She told us months before we were ready to sell how to get our house ready to sell. She guided us on what we should/shouldn’t upgrade for our price point and she was a wealth of knowledge. The listing and selling process were seamless. She negotiated, knew the best buyer for our house and we were under contract in less than 24 hours for $10,000 over asking price! We had over 8 offers in less than 6 hours! Ashley’s expertise and guidance made selling our house seamless! We can’t recommend her enough!

What a wonderful agent. Always thinking ahead and planning, flawless execution of trying to sell our house under many variables going against it. She went above and beyond and we really recommend her. Also kind and smiles all the time. Who does that?!!!

I cannot begin to cover the myriad ways in which Ashley made the process of listing and selling my parents' house the success that it was from start to finish. She talked with my father at length about realistic comp's and how the sale might proceed. She gave me valuable advice on prepping the house for sale and staging. When it came time to make select repairs, updates and small remodeling projects to maximize the house's value, Ashley put us in contact with several contractors who were professional, responsive, efficient and did great work. When it became apparent that housing values had begun to spike, Ashley made sure that our pricing reflected that trend and, yet, the house was still under contract within three days. She stayed in constant touch with us throughout the entire closing process and her communication from start to finish was everything that we could have hoped for. She was absolutely professional and ethical. We highly recommend Ashley as either a buyers' or sellers' agent.

Ashley was the perfect agent for us first-time home buyers. Her extensive experience and knowledge gave us confidence throughout every step of the process. Ashley was extremely responsive and checked in regularly just to make sure we felt good about each step of the process. Her expert service providers were honest and answered all of our questions about purchasing an older home. We can't sing her praises enough! We highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for an agent in the area.

We recently relocated back to the area and were looking for a real estate agent. As soon as we met Ashley we knew she was the one we wanted to work with. She is friendly, warm, efficient and professional. Her knowledge of the market helped guide us to specific neighborhoods that fit our criteria. She was always accessible immediately to answer questions. She guided us through the negotiation, inspection and closing process. We are thrilled with our new home, and we thoroughly enjoyed going through this process with Ashley. She has our highest recommendation!

Jan 22, 2019
Hands down, Ashley Riley is the best real estate agent we have ever had! She recently helped us with the purchase of our new home. She is extremely knowledgeable of the market, super responsive, patient, highly organized and well prepared for all our showings. She has an "A" list of service providers which we used in the buying process that proved to be very helpful. If you are looking for a highly professional, personable and ethical agent, look no further than Ashley. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home!

Jan 22, 2019
I can't say enough good things about using Ashley as our agent. We used her to buy our new house and sell our old house and she was very responsive, patient, helpful, flexible, and super hard working to help us through the whole process. I would (and have) highly recommend her to anyone looking for new or selling their homes.

Ashley Riley was a phenomenal agent. She has lived in this area for a long time and was very honest and knowledgeable about the districts and neighborhoods we were looking into. She made time for my wife and I both separately and together- as we often could not coordinate time to look at homes jointly. Ashley was very prompt with all necessary paperwork and sent us frequent reminders of what was necessary on our end once we were under contract. We felt comfortable contacting her at anytime and her response time was almost immediate. We would certainly recommend her to anyone buying or selling homes in the Atlanta area.

Ashley helped me sell my condo last year in the Smyrna area. Not a hard sell for her with the area growing like it was but she still managed to go above and beyond with her service! She was very attentive, responsive, and helped me get through the sell process so smoothly. She was very knowledgeable of the area. She had great reliable contacts for the repairs I needed and even assisted me with getting those done since I lived a good distance away. She was highly recommended to me and I would highly recommend her to anyone I know(plus anyone I don't) and will gladly use her if I buy or sell in the future.

Ashley is the best! Being an out of town buyer, it was difficult to see all the new listings that met my base criteria. On more than one occasion, she when out to a new listing and did a virtual tour for me! And when we final found the perfect place, the closing was running long so she went to house to let the movers in while I signed paperwork. Truly service above and beyond! I cannot wait to work with Ashley again.

Jan 3, 2019
Ashley did an incredible job in renting my rental home. Within days she had brought me multiple tenants. Ultimately, she was able to bring me a fine family along with the monthly rental I asked for. I plan on using her for any of my real estate needs going forward. Thanks Ashley for a job well done!

Ashley was the best!!! She was beyond responsive before, during, and after the home-buying process; we bought our house 6 months ago and Ashley still answers one-off questions we have very quickly. When we decide to sell our home, which will be many years from now, we'll definitely be giving Ashley our listing.

Ashley helped us out in selling our home in Marietta and the purchase of a new home in Ball Ground. The Marietta home needed some prep work to improve its condition like some painting of the interior and carpeting in the living room. In general she was very efficient in getting people to view the home. Although it took a little time, once it was shown to a number of potential buyers she located one who really liked what they saw, as well as, the price. During the period of finding a buyer, we set out to find a new home that was a ranch style to help my wife with dementia to not have to worry about stairs. Also, the home we found was away from the busy Marietta area and all the housing and road construction taking place. Ashley was very helpful in the purchase of the new home also. She was very effective and efficient in getting things done in a timely fashion. We appreciate all that she has done and highly recommend her to those looking to sell or buy a home. We also wish her well.

We have bought and sold properties using Ashley's expertise. She is consistently responsive and knowledgeable. She was able to find us the ideal property even after we looked for quite an extended period of time. With the sale, we had multiple offers the first day and closed very quickly.

Nov 14, 2017
I was looking for a two bedroom condo in a specific community and Ashley helped me find the perfect one! She was easy to work with, super friendly, professional, and prompt. As this was my first home buying experience, I needed a little guidance. She made the entire process run smoothly and had a wealth of knowledge and referrals. I would absolutely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a great realtor!

Nov 13, 2017
I highly recommend Ashley. My husband and I had a short window to find a place to buy as we were relocating from Florida due to work. She was very organized, quickly learned what we were looking for and made an already stressful time much easier to deal with. She is a joy to work with and I would definitely use her services again.

Nov 10, 2017
Ashley is simply fantastic! Earlier this year, my husband and I were looking to purchase a home and, very thankfully, she was referred to us through friends. Ashley is responsive, smart, and incredibly patient--to say I had questions is an understatement and yet she answered all my questions in a timely and thorough manner. We had such a wonderful experience with Ashley that we hired her to find a tenant for our condo. It was leased within three weeks and our tenant is absolutely amazing. I have recommended Ashley to friends and we will continue to use her for all our future real estate needs.

Nov 10, 2017
Ashley was great! She was accommodating in every aspect of the process and always quick to respond to any and all questions. It was our first home buying experience and she made it as easy as possible on us. She walked us through every step of the way and we ended up with a house we love. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a house, especially first time buyers.

Nov 9, 2017
As our buying agent, Ashley always made time to set up appointments to show us homes we were interested in right away. She is extremely familiar with the metro Atlanta area and has an extensive list of contacts (selling realtors, contractors, competitive mortgage lenders, etc.). She always promptly replied to our text messages and was always available for a call. A true professional and loves what she does.

Nov 9, 2017
Everything about working with Ashley was a complete delight. She made buying our first home as stress free as possible. From the minute we first met I was so happy to have had her recommended to us. She responded quickly and patiently to all of our questions and was very knowledgeable on every step of the process. She didn't try to push us out of our price range and knew the areas of Cobb County that we were looking in very well. I'm very thankful to have had a realtor I felt I could trust during this experience and would recommend her without hesitation.

I truly cannot praise and recommend Ashley enough! She helped my husband and I purchase our very first home. We were so "green" (and still are), but she was incredibly patient and kind in answering our questions and teaching us about the process. She was always easy to get a hold of if we had questions or needed her for anything. I also don't know all of the details, but she worked hard and negotiated strongly on our behalf to make sure we got what was fair/our money's worth. At closing, the seller's agent praised her as well and told us we had made an excellent choice. She was a JOY to work with. She is easy to be around, and our times out looking at houses really felt like I was just doing it with a friend! You CANNOT go wrong working with Ashley to buy OR sell your home.

We have recently had the pleasure of working with Ashley Riley in the purchase of a new construction home. As an attorney for the last 35 years, I have worked with hundreds of realtors, both personally and in the course of representing my clients. I do not hesitate in stating that Ashley is by far the best realtor that I have come into contact with, and we give her our highest recommendation. Ashley’s knowledge of the real estate profession, as well as her familiarity with the area, is excellent. She loves her work, and her passion to serve and exceed our expectations was immediately evident. Her enthusiastic and friendly personality truly made the process enjoyable. In addition, despite the need to deal with challenging behavior by other parties to the transaction, Ashley continually maintained her professionalism as well as her pleasant and amiable disposition. Ashley has been extremely diligent and patient throughout the process. She has gone the extra mile, responding immediately and constructively to all communications, even during holidays and when she was ill. She attended every inspection, walk-through, and selection meeting, providing excellent support and identifying issues. Ashley is extremely well organized and meticulous, and we never had any concerns that something might be overlooked. Her follow-up of all issues was exceptional, and she has continued to insure that all items were complete even after the closing on the home. Ashley has been an outstanding negotiator and, while remaining extremely attentive to our needs and desires, did not hesitate to offer excellent practical advice. Ashley has gone far above and beyond our expectations. She is an outstanding realtor, and we highly recommend her services to anyone who is considering buying or selling their home.

Ashley was great! She sold our home in 5 weeks and was extremely helpful and accommodating throughout the process. She was always accessible when we needed her and worked hard to get our home sold.

Oct 28, 2015
Ashley recently helped my wife and I both sell and buy a home. We have a young son and she was great with him. She helped us sell our home and get an appraisal in excess of what we had hoped. Buying another home was a real process but Ashley helped make it an enjoyable experience! As mentioned before, we have a young son who accompanied us on our home visits. Ashley allowed him to dictate fun activities, while we looked for a house. That does not do her justice but please believe she went the extra mile to make sure our 'looking' was productive and even fun for us all. My family feels we have a new friend in Ashley and truly hope we are able to stay in touch with her for years to come. Knowledgeable, creative, and more than pleasant to work with!!

Ashley Riley provided a fantastic service as our realtor. She was very attentive and took the time we required to find the home we were looking for. If your looking to buy or sell in the North Metro Atlanta area, Ashley will not disappoint.

Ashley is a breath of fresh air! I have worked with many "sales" people in my life that are so anxious to make a sale that they often ignore the best interests of their client. Ashley is the opposite. She takes time to really listen to what you are looking for and what you want/need in a home. First let me say that I was looking to rent a property. I understand that does not generate as much revenue for an agent as a sale, but I reached out to 10+ agents with no response. My email to Ashely about one of her properties was answered within an hour of me sending it. That property was no longer available, but she called me and talked me through what I was looking for and started sending me listings. I was in a major time crunch and it was right near the Thanksgiving holiday, but Ashley went out of her way to make time for me. She listened to my concerns, provided recommendations, she had all of the info at the ready any time I had a question. She made an otherwise nightmare process a total breeze. Once I found a property I liked, she kept on top of the listing agent. I had such a short time to sign the contract and move in, and if it had not been for Ashley's dedication and persistence, I do not know what I would have done! Ashely is knowledgeable about multiple areas of town. The areas she was not as familiar with she helped me research. She is honest and friendly, and goes out of her way to help you find what you are looking for. I jokingly say she was my "real estate counselor" during this time as I bounced ideas, fears, and concerns off of her. She offered assistance and advice at every turn. Even after I moved in, she sent me a small "thank you" housewarming gift! She truly is a trusted adviser in the real estate industry. When I am ready to purchase, she is the only agent I would want to work with!

Ashley Riley did an excellent job selling my house in Smyrna. She was always available and really worked hard to close the deal. My house sold in 2 months!! She is reliable, hard-working, and a great agent. I highly recommend using her for your buying and selling needs.

Mar 18, 2015
Ashley was outstanding to work with during our move from Seattle to Atlanta. She did an amazing job of educating us on the local market based on the type of neighborhood we were looking for. Her knowledge of the area was extremely thorough which gave us confidence throughout the process. Ashley did a great job of understanding our needs/wants in a home and targeting the right locations for us. If you work with Ashley you will soon learn you are working with an expert in the market who will support you through the entire process.
