Jim Canady

Broker

Jim started his Athens journey at UGA in 1996. After graduating with a business degree, Atlanta beckoned and certainly provided many twists and turns from the mortgage business, to investment banking, and meeting his beautiful wife. It was not until Michaela and Jim started a family in 2010 that small town life returned to focus. Real Estate was the avenue back to the wonderful Athens/Oconee community where the journey continues…

From Jim

"Real Estate ownership is one important component of a successful personal financial strategy. I enjoy helping people achieve a comfortable lifestyle and to build wealth through Real Estate. I work in a client centered relationship model. To be effective, I need to know you and understand your objectives. Are you looking for assistance on a single transaction or are you hoping to find a resource for ongoing projects? Are you a first-time property owner, an experienced real estate investor, or somewhere in between? Are you comfortable with legal documentation? What about negotiation? Are you able to forecast a return on investment? I am proficient in listening and networking with other professionals who can add value to your transaction(s). I have a skill set that enables me to provide the resources necessary to meet the needs of my clients. Finally, I believe serving others brings out the best in oneself and provides happiness and fullfillment. I appreciate and look forward to the opportunity to serve you."
