Precious began her commercial real estate career in 1995 and has developed a proven track record of partnering with clients to achieve and enhance their fiscal operations through effective management practices, equating to long-term renewals and increased asset value. Carter is a graduate of Georgia State University and is member of many prestigious organizations, including the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM) and Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA). She holds CPM, FMA and RPA designations, and is a licensed real estate professional in Georgia.

“Avison Young’s company culture and workplace environment is one of a kind, a precedent set by the current Principals,” said Carter. “As Principal, I hope to strengthen the company’s consistently excellent customer service and continue attracting the best tenants and talent in the Atlanta area.”

“Wendy and Precious have both added tremendous value to our company over the years, exceeding standards and leading their prospective teams even during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Dils. “Avison Young’s Principal-owned and client-focused approach allows our teams to drive economic impact in a variety of sectors in metro Atlanta and globally.”
