About Me

Real estate isn’t just about properties—it’s about people, timing, and making smart moves that feel right both now and down the road. Whether you're buying, selling, or exploring your options, I help you cut through the noise, zero in on the right opportunities, and navigate the process with clarity and confidence. My goal is simple: to make sure you walk away knowing you made the right move—for your life and your future.

Georgia is full of neighborhoods with character, energy, and real potential. I know Atlanta, it's surrounding towns and lakes inside and out, and I love helping people figure out where they’ll thrive. Maybe it’s your first home, maybe it's an investment play, or maybe you’re ready for a change and want someone who can guide you through it without the hype. That’s where I come in—with local insight, a strategic mindset, and a reputation for being transparent, honest, and easy to work with. Fellow agents know I keep things professional and collaborative, which helps create smoother, more successful outcomes for everyone involved.

If you're looking for total honesty from someone who’s respected in the industry and genuinely committed to your success, let’s talk. No pressure, no jargon—just clear conversation and smart, tailored advice to help you get where you want to go.

Sam McKinlay is everything you would ever want in a real estate agent: knowledgeable, experience, well-connected and savvy. She is an incredible strategist and will you counsel you on how to get the maximum price for your house and the best terms for you.

R. Alonzi

There are many respected realtors out there, but if you are looking for the very best, you would do well to have Sam in your corner. You will not find a more dedicated real estate professional.

J. Andersen

It was a delight to work with Sam. She was on top of everything, very responsive and with a great attitude every step of the way. She helped us a lot for the preparation of sale: staging, marketing, pricing study and benchmarking.

G. Kaz

Sam’s quick action and sharp negotiating skills beat out multiple offers to get me my dream home in my favorite neighborhood. She knows how to make it work!

D. Lueder

We had to move out of state and leave a mid-construction house which sat on the market for five months. We switched to Sam. She offered a unique angle to sell our home and presented a detailed marketing plan. We honestly were surprised by the turn-around time she had three offers lined up.

L. Keck

Working with Sam was great! She is easy to work with, very knowledgeable, and helped us find our perfect home! We highly suggest and encourage anyone to work with Sam!

B. Ziran

Sam is an expert who knew how to market my home. It sold for a record price in my neighborhood in under 1 week.

M. Deason

In 1963, my husband and I brought our first baby home to an authentic “Cotswold Cottage” we bought in Atlanta’s Morningside neighborhood. The Cotswolds are a range of rolling hills northwest of London. Over the years we customized it to fill our needs and finally at the end of our stay, it required a unique buyer for a unique house. Samantha, a native of England, knew all about the Cotswolds and made an excellent representative for our home. With grace, patience and persistence, she guided us through the process of saying goodbye to an era. I wouldn’t change a thing. She was wonderful to work with and she delivered!
