Stephanie's first experience in Real Estate began when she was a teenager, working the phones at the front desk of a local RE/MAX Office on the weekends. Little did she know that while she was setting appointments and putting together listing packets, she would be preparing herself for her future career in the same field! Her Mother and Stepfather worked together in commercial real estate, and her Uncle (who Stephanie sees more as a father than an Uncle) taught her the ropes of investment residential real estate! Stephanie worked for a top producing team in Orlando as an assistant and learned the back end of the real estate transaction, putting her in a better position to properly negotiate and represent her buyers and sellers when she did finally take the leap to full time real estate agent. The same year she made that jump, Stephanie married her husband, Mike Cathey, a nationally ranked mortgage loan officer. Shortly after, Stephanie and Mike had two beautiful boys, Lennon, and Jagger, who are the light of their lives. During this time, she obtained her Broker's License, and closed over $25,000,000 in real estate volume year after year - quickly qualifying her for the RE/MAX Hall of Fame Award - all in less than 3 years. Other awards include 2019 Volusia/Flagler Counties Top 40 Under 40, multi-year Platinum Club Award Winner, and 2018 WCR's Humanitarian of the Year Award for founding and running Lennon's Lunchbox, a local 501(c)3 aimed at refilling the past due lunch accounts of children - preventing them from the stigma of publicly having their lunch taken from their hands and replaced with an "alternative lunch", as well as the worry of bullying or not knowing whether or not they will have the money to eat lunch. During the 2020 pandemic, The Cathey Team has had its biggest year yet, and they know the best is yet to come. Stephanie prides herself on her "People Over Profit" mentality and has built a team who focuses every day on just that, taking care of people!

Working with Stephanie was hands-down the best decision we made during our home buying journey. From day one, she was professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the local market. Stephanie took the time to really understand what we were looking for and went above and beyond to find homes that matched our style and budget. Her communication was always clear and timely, and she made what couldve been a stressful process feel smooth and even exciting. She advocated for us at every step and provided honest, thoughtful advice that we truly appreciated.

"Stephanie is smart, experienced, and knowledgeable about all sides of the home-buying process. She fought for what was good for us at every step of the process. I wouldn't trust anyone else with such a life-altering transaction. "
