Cathy inherited her love of the real estate profession genetically...both of her parents were actively involved in real estate!  Cathy's father, William J. Champion, Jr. founded a very successful real estate company of the same name in 1952.  His death in 1961 made it necessary for Cathy's mother, Catherine Wood Champion, to step up to the challenge of managing this growing office.  She soon gained respect as one of Grosse Pointe's first female entrepreneurs.  Cathy followed her mother into the real estate business in 1976 after completing her education at Grosse Pointe High School and earning a Bachelor of Arts degree from Michigan State University.   Cathy is extremely pleased to be able to work with the professionals at Bolton-Johnston Associates of Grosse Pointe.   Their team is recognized throughout the community for their strong knowledge of the market.

Cathy has served her profession in various capacities at the local, state and national levels. As one of the six participants of the jurisdictional team responsible for the founding of the Grosse Pointe Board of REALTORS®, Cathy was elected to served as its first President in 1986.  She has served on the Board of Directors for many of the ensuing years.  Cathy was also the 1998 President of the Grosse Pointe Board, the only person to have been elected twice in this capacity.   In 1995, Cathy's peers at the Board honored her with the Frederick Scully Award for Professionalism in Real Estate, one of only a select few recipients of this prestigious award.  Cathy was distinguished by her peers again in 1986 and 1998 by being selected as the Grosse Pointe Board's REALTOR® of the Year.

Cathy has served as chairman of the Michigan Association of REALTORS® Professional Standards Committee, Risk Management Committee, Convention Committee, Broker/Owner Forum and Technology Committee.  She is a past Chairman of the Member Services Committee for the Managers Council of the Real Estate Brokerage Managers Council.  Cathy has earned several designations through her continued pursuit of real estate education.  The ABR, Accredited Buyer's Representative, CRB, Certified Real Estate Broker, CRS, Certified Residential Specialist, and GRI, Graduate REALTORS® Institute.   Her latest designation is E-PRO, the newest specialty of the National Association which recognizes internet professionals in real estate.

Cathy's vision of the real estate profession incorporates the use of technology to expand the marketing opportunity for sellers and increase the knowledge of the market for buyers.  Her understanding of the business is an accumulation of years of dedicated service, which she will share with you.   And, with over $100,000,000 in cumulative production, you can see that she knows what she’s doing!
