Full Circle Real Estate Group: Athens Real Estate, Sustainable Real Estate

In The News...

Full Circle Agent Katie Throne was profiled in The Athens Banner-Herald over the weekend in a new section they are calling Meet the Realtor:

Katie Throne’s interest in green building and sustainable design concepts has recently broadened to furniture design. The Realtor for Full Circle Real Estate Group is enjoying her new hobby.

“My dad has been building furniture as a hobby my whole life and both my mom and sister are masters at interior design, so I guess my interest in design comes naturally even though my background is in journalism and marketing,” she said.

After becoming the first Realtor in Athens to earn The National Association of Realtors GREEN Designation two years ago, Ms. Throne has continued to incorporate the sustainable ideas she learned into her life and business.

“I’m using the same concepts I appreciate in architecture and building, but transferring it to furniture design,” she said. ““I use only reclaimed or recycled materials to create something new. So far, my design aesthetic has leaned toward a combination of mid-century modern and industrial.”

The Full Circle Five: Michael Littleton

In an effort for you to get to know the individual characters who make up Full Circle Real Estate Group, we are starting a new series called "The Full Circle Five". We'll ask each Agent in our office the same five questions and give you their very candid answers right here in the blog. This week, meet one-of-a-kind Agent Michael Littleton...

1. What brought you to Athens?

Quest for enlightenment...Acutally, my parents packed my suitcases after graduating from high school and dragged me to Athens, hoping I'd find some enlightenment.

2. What do you like to do when you’re not slaving away at Full Circle?

Honestly, that doesn't leave much time these days, though I need to recapture my mojo (which was stolen along the way). I love the creative design aspect to restoring old homes/buildings, playing hoops (though it was more fun with a more youthful body), reading, finding those occassional zen moments, watching The Daily Show/Colbert Report - which brings both insight and laughter to the end of each day, and well, a plethora of things...

3. What are you going to do in 2010 to lessen your carbon footprint?

Try to breathe slower.
