I am a top producing, full time Real Estate agent, with 19 years of experience serving this areas buyers and sellers. I specialize in recreational and lake and riverfront homes and vacant land, and have offices in Fremont and Grand Rapids. Homes with water and/or acreage are my passion, I do a little bit of everything, but Newaygo Counties lakes and streams are what I really get excited about and that's what I focus my marketing efforts on. Whether you are looking to relocate, move up, or just have an amazing get-a-way place, or if you need to sell, I would love to have a conversation with you!

The Hope Project Inc, Ambassador/Event Coordinator
Hello,
My name is Deborah Kett, I am an Ambassador and Event Coordinator for The Hope Project. We are grass-roots, non-profit organization that supports the healing of girls and women who have survived sex trafficking and prevent further cases through mentoring and education. We service women and girls from surrounding counties in West Michigan by offering them client services, support groups and counseling. The Hope Project is in the works of opening Hope Village, a safe home for girls from 11-17 that have been removed from sex trafficking.Rachael Porter
Administrative Assistant
River Country Chamber of Commerce of Newaygo County, Administrative Assistant
Rachael is an Administrative Assistant with the River Country Chamber of Commerce of Newaygo County. She has resided in Newaygo since 2003. She has been very involved with the local public school, where her children have received their education at. Her favorite family community event has always been Croton’s Annual 4th of July celebration. Although she will be on the causeway instead of the pontoon, she is very excited to play a much bigger role in that specific event as well as others.
