Preferred Partners
Michelle's preferred local partners
Financing and closing a home in Northeast Georgia should start with people you can trust. These are Michelle's preferred local partners: Casey Simmons with Homeowners Financial Group, April Crawford with Barrett Financial Group, and Dawn Kendall with Colony Bank, plus real estate attorneys Scotty Ball with Walker, Ball & Dimo and Tiffany T. McWhorter with O'Kelley & Sorohan, Attorneys at Law, LLC. Work directly with any partner for rates, pre-approvals, loan questions, or closing representation, and Michelle will stay beside you from the first loan conversation to the closing table.
A note for first-time buyers
First-Time Buyer Friendly
The lenders featured on this page work with first-time buyers on FHA, conventional, and down payment assistance programs every day. Whether you are buying a starter home in town, new construction, or a condo or townhome, first-time buyers of any home type, not just lakefront, can get help with FHA, conventional, and down payment assistance programs through these partners. If you are preparing to buy your first home, reach out to any of them to get started on a pre-approval, and Michelle will guide you through the rest of the process, from offer to closing table.
