Meet John Andersen

John brings more than 20 years of leadership and sales experience in real estate.  Prior to joining Clareo Real Estate as a Broker Associate and founding Space Intown, REALTORS®, John served as a SVP and Managing Broker of the Atlanta Perimeter office at Harry Norman, REALTORS® where he was solely responsible for the attraction, engagement, coaching, and retention of 80+ agents and staff.  

As the Managing Broker, John had the opportunity to not only read and review 100's of real estate contracts, but he also helped his agents create winning marketing and negotiation strategies for their clients.  This included everything from helping homeowners understand what preparations they should complete to successfully ready their home for market, to creating a robust, effective marketing plan to present their carfully curated home to the public, helping ensure the home owner realize the highest possible sales price, in the least mount of time.  For buyers and sellers either writing or receiving an offer, John coached his agents to thoroughly understand the language in the contract, helping them think critically when negotiating on behalf of their clients, and he helping them brainstorm winning strategies that lead to successful closings.

In 2018, John turned his focus to working with and growing a much smaller, hand-picked group of elite real estate professionals, Space Intown, REALTORS®.

Beyond his professional work, John enjoys spending his free time with his nephew Axel and niece June, or with his dogs Huckleberry and Finley in Piedmont Park. John is a huge fan of tennis and loves both watching and playing tennis at his local court. Beyond tennis, John's hobbies also include learning to play the piano, going skydiving, and hunting for mid-century furniture for his home.
