Okay as a licensed Real Estate Broker & a REALTOR® there are some things I am supposed to tell you. They are a little dry, but required!

Michelle DeRepentigny is the Owner and Qualifying Broker (GREC 175298)of Success Realty (GA Firm #H47230).

With 15+ years of real estate brokerage experience, I strive to promote affordable home ownership opportunities in the Athens, GA area and to offer both home ownership and career opportunities to the diverse population that the Athens, Georgia and Watkinsville, Georgia areas enjoy.

Michelle is also a Georgia Certified Residential Appraiser (License #6547) and the co-owner of Diversified Property Services with her husband, David. Michelle brings extensive knowledge of the Athens, GA real estate market to the table through longevity in her real estate brokerage & real estate appraisal career and by being a native Athenian!

Michelle has earned the nationally recognized Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource certification. The National Association of REALTORS® offers the SFR certification to REALTORS® who want to help both buyers and sellers navigate these complicated transactions, as demand for professional expertise with distressed sales grows. According to a recent NAR survey, nearly one-third of all existing homes sold recently were either short sales or foreclosures. For many real estate professionals, short sales and foreclosures are the new “traditional” transaction. REALTORS® who have earned the SFR certification know how to help sellers maneuver the complexities of short sales as well as help buyers pursue short sale and foreclosure opportunities.

“As leading advocates for home ownership, REALTORS® believe that any family that loses its home to foreclosure is one family too many, but unfortunately, there are situations in which people just cannot afford to keep their homes, and a foreclosure or a short sale results,” said 2009 NAR President Charles McMillan.

Our Company Verses: Matthew 7:24-27King James Version (KJV)
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
