About Pete Clay, REALTOR®, Associate Broker, GRI, SFR
Deuteronomy 8:17-18 states:
 " You may say to yourself, My power and the strength of my hands
have produced this wealth for me.
But remember the Lord your God,
for it is he who gives you
the ability to produce wealth......."

Pete Clay is a full-time real estate professional serving Georgia's Lake Lanier and the surrounding Counties of Fulton (north). Forsyth, Hall, Dawson, Gwinnett (north), White, Barrow, Pickens, and Lumpkin. Pete has sold and closed on properties in Alpharetta, Braselton, Buford, Cumming, Dahlonega, Dawsonville, Flowery Branch, Gainesville, Hoschton, Lula, Oakwood, Sugar Hill, Suwanee and Winder, in Georgia, plus has had numerous out-of-state referral sales.

Prior to joining Solid Source Realty, Inc. as an Associate Broker in 2008, Pete was affiliated with Coldwell Banker French Properties, in Cumming, a locally owned franchise, and well known for its expertise with Lake Lanier properties. After the owner of French Properties retired and closed the business, Pete moved to Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, also in Cumming, as an Associate Broker.

Going back still further, Pete served as a senior executive in New York City, before deciding to opt for early retirement and the move to Georgia. His executive responsibilities included vice president human resources/operations/productivity, and, among many other duties, had accountability for property development, employee/executive relocation, all company expenses, etc, all of which add to his capabilities as a negotiator and area real estate expert.

Pete Clay grew up in New Jersey and Maryland, and attended college in the north and in the south. Personal investments in recreational properties over the years, mostly lake and skiing-oriented, have been an interesting and a rewarding avocation. Today, in addition to local market real estate Pete offers buyers his referral affiliations with dozens of resort communities in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Honduras and Mexico.

Pete, and his wife, a former banking executive, make their primary residence in one of the delightful and convenient communities near Lake Lanier. They also own ski and lake properties in other states, and his wife, a winter sports enthusiast, particularly enjoys their home at a ski resort. They regularly boated on Lake Lanier with their 31' Formula sport boat, as well as on Lake Winnipesaukee, in New Hampshire. With the boat now sold, they are concentrating on improving their golf games to the point where they are no longer a threat to other players on the course.

Pete is easy to know, never applies sales pressure, and is available as your listing agent to sell your property, or as your buyer agent to represent your interests if buying. He makes himself accessible seven days a week, so do not hesitate to contact Pete anytime, day or night, with real estate questions or specific property inquiries. Pete Clay holds the prestigious GRI designation (Graduate Realtor Institute), and is certified as a National Association of Realtors Short Sale and Forclosure Resource (SFR).

Pete's interests outside of real estate include power boating, history, Corvettes and true Classic-Era automobiles, reading biographies, visiting Civil War and Revolutionary War battlefields and other historic places. Pete says, "Perhaps we have some interests in common, and that would be great fun".
