Foster parents to more than 30 children, Devonda and James Friday recently adopted a teenage boy and his four siblings. Because their house was too small, the Fridays were forced to convert their carport into makeshift bedrooms to make room for the children.
In a week, their new home will be large enough to accommodate everyone. And, it will be built in time for the Fridays to celebrate their first Christmas together as a new family.
“We’ve spent weeks planning for this ambitious project, and we’re excited to start building their new home,” said Bellamy Homes Co-Owner Wade Miller. “This will be a life-changing event for the Fridays, and we can’t think of a more deserving family to receive this gift from the greater Charlotte community.”
All products and labor are being donated by partnering businesses and suppliers, and thousands of volunteers are donating their time and expertise. The project needs laborers, food servers, clean-up workers and skilled trade professionals.
“We are honored to partner with local businesses and the multitude of volunteers to provide a better life for the Fridays,” said Bellamy Homes Co-Owner Frank Hereda. “We’re going to need the community’s continued support and hard work to finish this wonderful new home by the end of the week.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Lisa Borders Earns NAR Short Sales and Foreclosure Certification
Buyers and Sellers Benefit from REALTOR® Expertise in Distressed Sales
Lincolnton, NC, December 20th — Lisa Borders with RE/MAX Crossroads has earned the nationally recognized Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource certification. The National Association of REALTORS® offers the SFR certification to REALTORS® who want to help both buyers and sellers navigate these complicated transactions, as demand for professional expertise with distressed sales grows.
According to a recent NAR survey, nearly one-third of all existing homes sold recently were either short sales or foreclosures. For many real estate professionals, short sales and foreclosures are the new “traditional” transaction. REALTORS® who have earned the SFR certification know how to help sellers maneuver the complexities of short sales as well as help buyers pursue short sale and foreclosure opportunities.
“As leading advocates for homeownership, REALTORS® believe that any family that loses its home to foreclosure is one family too many, but unfortunately, there are situations in which people just cannot afford to keep their homes, and a foreclosure or a short sale results,” said 2009 NAR President Charles McMillan, a broker with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Dallas-Fort Worth. “Foreclosures and short sales can offer opportunities for home buyers and benefit the larger community, as well, but it’s extremely important to have the help of a real estate professional like a REALTOR® who has earned the SFR certification for these kinds of purchases.”
The certification program includes training on how to qualify sellers for short sales, negotiate with lenders, protect buyers, and limit risk, and provides resources to help REALTORS® stay current on national and state-specific information as the market for these distressed properties evolves. To earn the SFR certification, REALTORS® are required to take one core course and three Webinars.
