Pauline Miller

CDMG Managing Director

With over 18,000 real estate transactions representing over $4 billion in sales volume, Pauline’s extensive experience in community positioning, strategic sales program development, marketing, sales agent training, and space planning & design, qualifies her as the premier professional in her field.

Following her service as Senior Vice President of the southeast's largest independent New Homes Sales & Marketing Company for two decades, Pauline founded Brightstar, a first of its kind real estate team providing a comprehensive range of sales and marketing services custom-tailored exclusively to Atlanta Builders & Developers, Banks & Asset Managers. Pauline's success is a direct result of her unwavering hands-on dedication to understanding the needs of both developers & buyers, and earning their respect with a selling strategy built upon integrity.

“It’s fulfilling to help somebody find a house, but what’s really fulfilling is to see the neighborhood come together & watch residents start interacting,” says Pauline. “That’s what makes me happy. I’m fortunate to be a part of building these communities.”

The New Direction of Development

We view ourselves as partners on the developer’s team. As trusted advisors and consultants to the project, we ensure that each decision is thoughtfully made with the buyer and ultimate success of the project in mind. In order to maximize the value of the project at each phase of the development process, Compass Development Marketing Group is typically engaged well in advance of the sales launch and often consults on the planning and pre-marketing of a project 1-2 years before the project is released for sale to the market.
