Over Two Decades of Impact in Morningside and Beyond

For over 25 years, Ken Covers has been one of the most trusted names in Atlanta real estate. With a career grounded in consistency, service, and long-standing community ties, Ken has become synonymous with Morningside—one of Atlanta’s most sought-after intown neighborhoods. Known for its privacy, outstanding schools, and neighborhood charm, Morningside is more than just a market for Ken—it’s home.

Ken’s deep roots in this community are matched only by his longevity in the business. He has spent decades helping families find homes that don’t just meet their needs, but transform their lives. “A great house can change your life,” he says. And for hundreds of clients, that’s exactly what he’s helped make possible.

The Triple Threat Advantage

Ken doesn’t just show homes—he stages, sells, and sees possibilities others might miss. Often called a “triple threat” by his peers and clients, Ken has built a reputation for being able to list, sell, and stage properties with intuitive precision. “I’ve got a great eye,” he shares. “It took years to develop, but now I trust it completely.”

It’s not just talent—it’s instinct. And over time, that instinct has helped him develop an edge that turns listings into fast-moving opportunities, and buyers into confident decision-makers. For Ken, success starts with trust. “When I feel their trust, I’m at my best,” he says. His client relationships are rooted in genuine connection, built slowly and deliberately through honesty and presence.

Built on Trust, Fueled by Purpose

In a field often defined by pressure and persuasion, Ken stands out for his grounded, human-centered approach. He doesn’t push—he guides. Whether working with first-time buyers or seasoned homeowners, Ken focuses on clarity, comfort, and connection. He believes the real estate journey should feel intuitive, not overwhelming—and that trust, above all, should guide the process.

His clients come to him for more than just market expertise—they come for someone who sees the whole picture and truly cares. That care has earned him recognition across the industry, including the prestigious Good Neighbor Award from the Atlanta Board of Realtors, a peer-nominated honor that reflects not just professional excellence, but personal integrity. He is also a 9-time recipient of the Five Star Professional Award, a rare distinction shared by fewer than five professionals in the entire state of Georgia.

Community, Culture, and a Commitment to Giving Back

As a Private Office Advisor with Engel & Völkers Atlanta, Ken is part of an elite group within a dynamic, tech-forward brokerage known not just for innovation, but for impact. Led by broker-owner Christa Huffstickler, the firm has earned a reputation for attracting top-tier talent and cultivating a culture of service.

Ken has long embodied that same ethos. He plays a leading role in organizing his firm’s participation in the Special Olympics Polar Plunge, where their team has been the top fundraising group for the last five years, and Ken himself has been the top individual fundraiser for the same period. He is also deeply involved in the Alzheimer’s Association, having lost his mother to the disease. As a “star dancer” in one of the organization’s fundraising events, he was honored with the Mirrorball Trophy for his exceptional efforts.

For Ken, real estate has always been about relationships—not just with clients, but with the neighborhoods he serves and supports. It’s this commitment to both people and place that has made him a standout presence in Atlanta’s real estate scene for over two decades—and that continues to make him one of its most trusted voices today.
