About YHS Real Estate
Building Real Estate Solutions in Athens, GA and Beyond
What started as a vision to serve homeowners and investors with honest, transparent real estate transactions has grown into one of Athens' most trusted cash buying companies.
The Beginning
Founded in 2021 by Ian Ingram and Michael Epps, YHS Real Estate was born from years of experience working alongside Athens' top brokers and realtors. Ian and Michael recognized a gap in the market—homeowners and investors needed more flexible real estate solutions beyond traditional listings.
​
YHS was created to offer those alternatives: fast cash purchases for homeowners who need to sell quickly, exclusive off-market deals for local investors, and partnership opportunities for private lenders.
​
"We built YHS to give people real options. Whether you're facing foreclosure, inheriting a property you don't want, or looking for your next investment—there should be a straightforward path."
Ian Ingram and Michael Epps, Founders
