Founder/CEO
A Chattanooga native, Randy Shelley was born and raised in Ooltewah, TN. After launching his career in civil engineering, he made a bold pivot in 2008 to pursue real estate investing full-time—and never looked back. Since then, Randy has successfully bought and sold over 500 properties across the Chattanooga area, earning a reputation for strategic vision and results-driven execution.
In 2018, Randy elevated his focus to high-impact investment opportunities, including large multi-family apartment complexes, self-storage facilities, and launching a hard money lending company, Mission Funding—further solidifying his role as a key player in the region’s real estate landscape.
Beyond the numbers, Randy is grounded in what matters most: family and adventure. He enjoys an active outdoor lifestyle with his wife and two young daughters. He has recently embraced RV travel and looks forward to exploring new destinations while creating lasting memories with his family

Loans Administrative Director
After leaving banking, Amanda explored a new path as an assistant, a role she enjoyed but felt she could take further. This drive led her to the hard money lending business, where she became a Loan Administrative Director. Amanda thrives in this position, finding fulfillment in helping others every day.
In her spare time, Amanda enjoys spending time with her three dogs and her family. She is especially excited to watch her niece and nephew grow up, cherishing the moments she shares with them.
Growth Architect
From the sun-soaked shores of the West Coast to the vibrant cities of the East and the soulful charm of the South, Christine’s love for exploration eventually brought her to Tennessee. Her innate creativity and a deep-rooted passion for helping others feel their best led her into the beauty industry, where she thrived as a cosmetologist and manicurist for over 12 years.
Christine earned her Associate’s degree in Business Administration and advanced her education in Marketing at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. Her relentless curiosity, love for connection, and global perspective ultimately guided her to Mission Funding, where she now leads as a Growth Architect—designing strategies that inspire transformation and fuel expansion.
When she’s not building bridges in business, Christine can be found hiking scenic trails with her dog Kiwi or chasing her next adventure through America’s National Parks—always with a passion for discovering new cultures and indulging in culinary experiences around the world.
