Dorothy MottL

As Broker/Owner of D.MottL Realty Group, let me welcome you to Southwest Michigan … a place where a person becomes lost in the woods, spends a day on the water, or visits a small historical community.  D. MottL Realty Group is making it happen in Southwest Michigan with offices in both downtown Historic communities of Buchanan and Dowagiac, and include three major counties in Southwest Michigan:  Berrien, Cass and Van Buren. The Brokerage handles Residential, Commercial, Waterfront and Investment properties.  Businesses the Brokerage has helped bring or relocate to the area are:  Union Coffee House, Dean Antiques, Relic, Haven’s Retreat Day Spa, McCarty Well Drilling, Lehman’s Orchard Brewery & Farmhouse, and the two new destination eateries, Wheatberry Tavern and Bucktown Tap.  More are in the works, but it’s much to early to disclose. The Brokerage has a reputation of handling unique and premier properties in Southwest Michigan.  Whether it’s historical homes, private waterfront estates, waterfront communities, lake-homes, estates with private runways and hangers.  D.MottL Realty Group is here for you.

Personally I have a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership +++ and have spent over 20 years in the field of Education, teaching, administering and writing grants.  Currently I serve on the Administrative Board for the Buchanan Area Chamber of Commerce for the City of Buchanan and continue to be actively involved in and supportive of local events.  Past and present positions provide me and the Brokerage with the insight and direction of the community, and allows me to be a leader when it comes to the who, what, when, where of the area.  Again, let me welcome you!
