After a successful career as a television news anchor, Dawn Hobby chose real estate as her next career because it allowed her to continue following her passion for helping people. “Purchasing and selling a home are such important steps in life, and I love helping clients navigate through the process,” she explains.

A Realtor and associate broker with Harry Norman, Realtors, Hobby works as a luxury advisor and Corporate Relocation Specialist throughout Alpharetta, Milton, Johns Creek, Sandy Springs, Cumming and Lake Lanier. “I strive to always be available to my clients. My goal is to provide guidance and make sure all their questions are answered,” she reports. “I advise them based on their best interests, not on making a sale.”

Recognized as a top-producing Realtor by the Atlanta Realtors Association for the last five years, Hobby is among the top 5% of agents in sales volume and sales units. For the past five years, she has served as a member of the Harry Norman, Realtors Success Circle and is currently one of their top 10 individual agents. She was a recipient of the Premier Club Gold Award in 2019 and has been named an Atlanta Magazine Real Estate All-Star for the past four years. In 2011, she received an Emmy from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.

An advocate for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Hobby additionally supports Jesse’s House, a local safe house that provides support and care for girls.

Hobby is known for being extremely organized, punctual and process-driven during transactions — traits that her father instilled in her. “Calmness and kindness are the lotions in the motion,” she says. “I’ve received industry recognition and earned the respect of my colleagues, which is wonderful, but my clients’ success means more than anything.”
