Andy Peters is Operating Partner for the Georgia Legacy Group and Carolina Legacy Group made up of multiple Keller Williams Realty franchises: Keller Williams Alpharetta, Roswell, Peachtree Corners, Savannah, Greenville, Ft. Mill, and Columbia. Currently the Legacy Group includes 3,000 agents. Three out of four of the Georgia Legacy Group market centers are in the top 50 for profitability out of over 800 Keller Wiliams franchises across the country. In 2023, the KW North Atlanta franchise in Alpharetta Georgia ranked #1 in the world for profitability. Andy is also a national real estate trainer who specializes in team growth, marketing, and listings. He and Lesley, his wife and business partner, are a part of Keller Williams Realty co-founder Gary Keller’s Top Agent Mastermind Group, which is made up of the top Keller Williams agents from around the country.

 

With roots in South Georgia, born and raised in Macon, attending high school and starting out in the real estate industry in Atlanta, and now living in Savannah, Andy has lived, worked, and played in virtually every inch of Georgia. Andy graduated from Marist School in Atlanta and went on to graduate from Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina with a B.A. in Communication Studies. Out of college, he went to work with his family business, Aqua Koolers of Georgia, which eventually merged with Quench USA. Andy served as a sales representative, sales manager, and finally as Vice President of Sales over Georgia and Florida. Lesley’s success in real estate pulled Andy into the business in 2008 when they first formed their real estate team, The Peters Company. The Peters Company was in the top 1% nationally for over a decade.

 

Andy has a passion for helping Georgia’s charities preventing homelessness. He is also a lifelong Atlanta Braves fan, and in his spare time he collects guitars, rare bourbon, and sports cards. He and Lesley live outside of Savannah on the Georgia coast and travel back and forth regularly to Atlanta with their two adolescent children and two dogs.

Lesley graduated from Furman University with a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration and went on to obtain her Masters in Teaching from Oglethorpe University. After teaching first-grade for five years, Lesley longed for a career where she could put her business degree to use and found real estate. She loved the entrepreneurial nature and the ability to develop lifelong relationships inside this new industry. In her first full year, she closed 23 transactions between March and December and was named Rookie of the Year for Keller Williams Realty Peachtree Road. As her client base grew, Lesley formed a team so she could continue to provide the exceptional level of service she had built her reputation on.

 

For seventeen years, Lesley was the glue that held all things together at The Peters Company. As founder and co-owner, she literally held every position on the team. Andy, her business partner and husband, jokes that she was the “swiss army knife” of the organization. Her impeccable understanding of real estate sales and operations was a dynamite combination for The Peters Company, which was a top 1% real estate team nationally for eleven straight years.

 

Today, you will find Lesley leading, coaching, and training 3,000 agents throughout a network of Keller Williams Realty franchises known as the Georgia Legacy Group and Carolina Legacy Group. She is incredibly proud to be a member of Gary Keller’s Top Agent Mastermind Group, a Keller Williams University Approved Trainer and former MAPS coach.

 

Lesley believes real estate and teaching are her lifelong calling. She divides her time between Atlanta, Coastal Georgia and the Carolinas with her husband and business partner Andy, two children John Morgan and Vada, and two dogs Byrdie and Bizzy.
