Resume Pat Sabin REALTOR(R)

Living and working in Gwinnett County and northeast Atlanta is a joy. The people here are so friendly, interesting, and diverse. We enjoy mild weather and beautiful seasonal changes, and there are so many opportunities for strolling through historic towns and public parks, and attending live theatre, concerts, and sporting events. The north Georgia mountains are an easy day trip, and the beach is just five hours away. What more could I want?

Hobbies & Travel

Since college I have been an avid photographer, and I still carry my camera most of the time to photograph subdivision Atlanta Vintage Postcard

amenities, old houses, parks, cemeteries, ducks and geese, and anything else that catches my attention. I host several history and genealogy web sites, and as a result I have fallen in love with vintage postcards. I have been collecting for about ten years, and restore vintage postcard digital images for use in documentaries, publications and print.

My daily stress reliever is a walk in one of our lovely Gwinnett County parks with my iPod. When I have a few days off I enjoy vacationing in "lowcountry" South Carolina and East Tennessee where I am able to combine history and genealogy with family visits and beautiful scenery.

I'm fortunate to have my immediate family living here, and we see each other often for cookouts, impromptu lunches, movies and theatre. I have greatly spoiled inside cats, and one completely awful outside cat who was abandoned by his previous owner and somehow became my cat. He's roamed the neighborhood for so many years, each neighbor calls him by a different name.

I am an active member of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®, GEORGIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®, and Active Life Member Million Dollar Club of the NORTH ATLANTA METRO ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (NAMAR). Phoenix Award Winner, 2006 .

Since 1985 I have been a residential real estate professional in new and resale homes from $85,000-$550,000 in house

Gwinnett and northeast metro Atlanta suburbs. I have extensive experience in residential construction, having opened and managed new home communities, as well as working directly for the Atlanta division of a national home builder as construction estimator. I was associated with RE/MAX® from 1998 to 2009. In May 2009 I joined SOLID SOURCE REALTY, INC., one of the top five privately owned companies in growth in metro Atlanta.

I enjoy working with first time home buyers as well as "move-up" and relocation buyers. I'm an avid photographer and web designer, and love designing unique, personalized marketing programs for my listing clients! (I knew that Journalism degree would come in handy one day!)

Since 1999 I have been a USGenWeb Project County Coordinator in Georgia, South Carolina and Connecticut, working with volunteers all over the country. I have been the County Coordinator for Gwinnett County GAGenWeb since 2004.

I host a support and information forum of over 750 members for Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, an underdiagnosed neurological condition that affects many elderly people and their families.

I also support America's Second Harvest, Habitat for Humanity, Gwinnett County Humane Society, Georgia Public Television, and the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation.
