Welcome to my website! I am George Rochler, your Atlanta area Realtor®. I reside in Canton which is north of Atlanta and south of the foothills. It is a beautiful place to live and the area is growing.
I take great pride as a Realtor® to represent you as a seller’s agent as well as a buyer’s agent and it is my fiduciary duty to do so with the utmost respect, loyalty, and confidentiality.
Before you buy or sell a home, be sure to contact me to tell me about your ideas because one of the things I enjoy the most is acting as your consultant and turning your ideas into a qualified and quantified strategy.
I can represent you in any real estate transaction for the Greater Atlanta area, but I am most familiar with the North of Atlanta area including the very popular towns of Alpharetta, Roswell, Milton, Woodstock, Holly Springs, Canton, Cumming, Cartersville, and the surrounding areas.
I feature a free, up to date Real Estate search that will allow you to search just like an agent. All the data is fed directly from the FMLS and GAMLS.
If you would like to know what your current home is worth, I have the ability to do the most accurate CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) available so we can list your home and optimize your net results.
Let me tell you a little bit more about what sets a REALTOR® apart from an agent:
REALTORS® are held to high standards
For much of the public, the terms “real estate agent” and “REALTOR®” are used interchangeably. In reality, they are not the same. All REALTORS® must be licensed agents, but not all licensed real estate agents are REALTORS®.
What is the difference, and why is it important to you as a buyer or seller?
Studying and passing the real estate licensing exam is merely the first step in becoming a real estate professional. Although it is voluntary, an agent should also become a member of the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), the largest professional services association in the U.S. with over one million members. Members of NAR are known as REALTORS®. REALTORS® must be licensed agents in good standing in their state who have sworn to abide by the REALTOR® Code of Ethics, which sets standards of integrity. About 65 percent of licensed agents are members of NAR and thus REALTORS®.
In addition to the National Association, NAR has local associations to manage the members in their geographic region. I am a member of the Cobb Association of Realtors®.
What is the Code of Ethics?
The REALTOR® Code of Ethics is a set of standards that REALTORS® pledge to uphold. The Code of Ethics has a preamble declaring that the REALTOR® will treat clients and others the way they themselves would want to be treated. The Code then lists 17 articles covering three areas of responsibility.
The first is the responsibility to clients. REALTORS® are fiduciaries to their clients. REALTORS® have to put their client’s interests above their own. These include not exaggerating or withholding pertinent facts about a property, being transparent about all aspects of compensation to the REALTOR®, disclosing whether the REALTOR® has any interest in a property being considered, and keeping all client funds in a separate trust account.
The second responsibility is to the public. REALTORS® must not discriminate in the conduct of their business, must be honest in all advertising and marketing, must not engage in the unauthorized conduct of law, and will fully cooperate with any ethics investigations by local REALTOR® Association representatives.
Finally, REALTORS® have responsibilities to other REALTORS®. REALTORS® will not make false or misleading comments about other REALTORS®, will honor the exclusive relationship between other REALTORS® and their clients and will arbitrate financial disputes with other REALTORS® and clients.
REALTORS® are subject to disciplinary action and sanctions if they violate the Code of Ethics.
When a buyer or seller uses a REALTOR® to represent him, he’s working with a professional who has sworn to conduct business by a gold standard set of ethics.
