David Tufts started his real estate career in 1983 with The Marketing Directors, Inc. (TMD). After becoming one of the top sales agents in Manhattan, David joined the TMD management team. During his tenure, David started City Living, a resale division, and oversaw the lease-up and sales of multiple high-rise towers in New York, Boston, Washington D.C., Houston, Los Angeles and South Florida. David rose to Vice President of TMD. In 1993, after relocating to Atlanta, David started The Condo Store (TCS).
TCS quickly became a driving force in the burgeoning condominium market of Atlanta in the late 90’s. In 1999, after its first billion dollar sales year, TCS merged with NRT and became Coldwell Banker The Condo Store (CBTCS). David grew the company as CEO for the next six years making CBTCS one of the largest and most profitable new home sales companies in the country (with over 10,000 closings in 2005 alone.) In 2007, it was clear that the national real estate market was about to go through a great change. Only someone with David’s experience of over 25 years would be in a position to create a new company focused on solutions for the new reality.
David rejoined forces with Adrienne Albert to form The Marketing Directors, LLC. Assembling a team of the “best of the best” with vast experience was the foundation for implementing the platform of creative solutions for real estate. Having overseen the marketing and sales programs for over 200 high-rise, conversion, adaptive reuse and boutique properties, few people have David’s invaluable experience to navigate this very specific arena.
David earned a B.A. from Williams College, is a Georgia Licensed Real Estate Broker and serves on the Board of Trustees NSMC of NAHB.
