Lee Hemmer

Principal, Qualifying Broker | CCIM, SIOR | Commercial Real Estate Expert in Gainesville & Northeast Georgia

A Gainesville, Georgia native, Lee Hemmer's family roots in Hall County date back to 1802, giving him a deep understanding of the region's history, growth, and real estate market. His longstanding connection to Northeast Georgia is one of the driving forces behind his passion for helping clients buy, sell, lease, and invest in commercial real estate.

Since 1997, Lee has specialized in commercial real estate throughout Northeast Georgia, representing buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, and investors across a wide range of property types. His expertise includes industrial properties, office buildings, investment real estate, land, and commercial development opportunities throughout Gainesville, Hall County, and the surrounding region.

Lee holds two of the industry's most prestigious professional designations—the Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM) and the Society of Industrial and Office REALTORS® (SIOR) designation—reflecting his advanced knowledge in commercial investment analysis, negotiations, and brokerage. As a consistent multi-million-dollar producer, Lee is recognized annually as one of the top-performing commercial real estate brokers by the Atlanta Commercial Board of REALTORS®.

He is an active member of the Georgia CCIM Chapter, the CCIM Institute, the Georgia SIOR Chapter, and the Atlanta Commercial Board of REALTORS®. In addition to brokerage, Lee brings valuable owner-investor experience through his ownership and management of both residential and commercial investment properties, giving clients practical insight into long-term real estate ownership and asset management.

Beyond real estate, Lee is deeply committed to serving the Northeast Georgia community. He currently serves as Secretary of the Healan's-Head's Mill Trust for Historic Preservation, is a member of the Gainesville Rotary Club, serves on the Board of The Hospital Authority of Hall County, and is a board member of the Chicopee Woods Area Park Commission.

His leadership extends across numerous civic and nonprofit organizations. Lee is a Leadership Georgia alumnus and has served as Past President of the Gainesville Rotary Club, Past Chairman of the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce, and Past Chairman of the Georgia Mountains YMCA. He has also served on the boards of Lakeview Academy, the Hall County Soil and Water Conservation District, the Georgia CCIM Chapter, Gainesville/Hall County Trust for Historic Preservation, Greater Hall Chamber Vision 2030, Knox Martin Foundation, Northeast Georgia Speech Center, Northeast Georgia Medical Center Foundation, Georgia Mountain Food Bank, Brenau University, University of North Georgia, Friends of Don Carter State Park, and Hampden-Sydney College.

An Eagle Scout, Lee has dedicated many years to the Boy Scouts of America, including serving as Scoutmaster and mentoring young leaders throughout the community.

Outside of commercial real estate, Lee owns Oak Valley Meat Processing and Abattoir in Toccoa, Georgia, and operates a Tamworth hog farm. He and his wife, Beth, live with their children on their family farm in East Hall County, where they continue their family's legacy of stewardship, agriculture, and community involvement.
