Experience the MGN Fine Homes Difference
Hi, I’m Leah Nascimento...
Hello, I’m Leah Nascimento (also known as Marilia Nascimento), Brazilian-born REALTOR®, Owner of MGN Fine Homes, and a Portuguese-speaking real estate advisor in Atlanta, Georgia. I help immigrant families, relocating professionals, and strategic buyers and sellers navigate the Georgia real estate market with clarity, cultural understanding, and a plan that protects both your finances and your peace of mind.
I was born in Brasília, Brazil and moved to the U.S. at 18 on a J-1 visa, determined to build the kind of opportunities I couldn’t find back home. My real estate journey began in 2007, when I purchased my first home just before the 2008 market shift. That experience shaped how I work today: real estate can be a powerful wealth-building tool, but only when decisions are made with education, timing, and strong guidance.
After buying a property in Georgia and feeling disappointed with the service I received, I decided to become the kind of agent I wished I had: organized, honest, and truly protective of my clients. I earned my Georgia real estate license in 2014, founded MGN Fine Homes in 2016, and have helped 200+ families buy, sell, relocate, and invest in Georgia. I’ve been a Top Producer with the Atlanta REALTORS® Association for 8 years in a row, and I’m honored to have received the Radio Brazil Atlanta “Destaque 2024” award for my impact in the Brazilian community.
Primary service areas: Atlanta, Marietta, Woodstock, Kennesaw, Roswell, Alpharetta, Milton, Canton, Sandy Springs, Smyrna, Acworth plus surrounding communities across Metro Atlanta & North Atlanta.

Education
Our goal is to help you make informed, confident decisions in real estate, whether you’re buying, selling, relocating to Georgia, or building long-term wealth through property. We explain the process clearly, so you understand your options, timelines, and risks before you commit.
Understanding Your Culture
As immigrants, we understand the emotional weight behind your real estate decisions — security, belonging, and legacy. We bridge cultural gaps and communicate with patience and respect, so you feel supported navigating the U.S. system.
Listening to Your Needs
Many clients come to us after feeling unheard or rushed. We take time to understand your goals and concerns, then create a customized plan that’s communicated clearly with guidance you can trust from consultation to closing.

Very hard working, is there anytime I need them !Posted on Curtis CollinsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Leah is an excellent realtor. My wife initiated working with Leah because they both speak Portuguese. She is very good at her job and helped through the entire process. She was very responsive and was great to work with. She is amazing!Posted on slim0916Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⸻ I recently settled on a home in Georgia and although I had a different agent representing me as the buyer, I was truly impressed with the selling agent, Leah Nascimento. She was always prompt, thorough, and thoughtful in every interaction. Her professionalism and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and efficient. If I were to buy or sell a home in the area again, I would absolutely choose to work with her. She was a standout throughout the transaction—highly recommend!Posted on Nathalia GrimmTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Leah! As a friend and fellow Brazilian, she made the whole home-buying process so much easier and more comfortable for us. She really took the time to understand what we were looking for and guided us with patience, care, and so much knowledge. It meant a lot to go through everything in our own language and with someone who truly gets our culture. We’re so grateful for her help and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home!Posted on Isabella BlairTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I bought my house with Leah, and I can say with absolute certainty that there is no better realtor. I met her through my in-laws, who bought with her in 2022. In 2023, I went to a Christmas event she organized, and that’s where we met in person — in fact, that’s when she invited me to work with her. In other words: I met Leah as a client and from within her team, and my admiration for her only grew. When my husband and I started dreaming of owning a home, Leah guided us with a clear plan because, at the time, we didn’t have enough income. We followed exactly what she recommended, and shortly after, we were able to buy the ideal house. During the process, we faced some obstacles with the IRS and even a mistake on my part (even though she had warned me 😅), but she stayed strong, looked for solutions, and did everything she could to make the closing happen without losing any benefits. And she succeeded. Leah is extremely intelligent, strategic, professional, and knows the market like no one else. But more than that: she takes care of her clients like a mother. She truly cares and fights to get the best deal possible. Closing day was an immense relief — and an even greater feeling of gratitude for having someone like her by our side. If you’re thinking about buying or selling, you can stop looking: Leah is the best at what she does. Period.
