About us

My name is Alan Russell, and I am an Associate Broker of Keller Williams Community Partners in Cumming, Ga! I am also the team leader for top10lanierhomes.com. I began selling homes and lots in 1994. My team and I have sold hundreds of homes on and around Lake Lanier. We realized long ago that there are just too many homes on the lake, and buyers simply can’t see them all. Our concept: use our expertise and experience to rank the homes into top 10 lists on our site that will save you time and money. This approach also allows our team agents to give the very best service to our clients. I believe a home on Lake Lanier is a GREAT investment, and homeowners will see huge equity gains over the next 20 years all while enjoying one of the best lakes in Georgia!


Shannon Russell (my wife) started in the real estate industry in 1992 working for Hutson Realty as the broker’s assistant. Shannon specializes in staging homes, designing marketing materials, and accounting.

Bill is an expert on Lake Lanier home values, dock permitting, and water depth.
