Dedicated to the joy of home. There will be those that will try and tell you that renting is a better option or that homeownership isn't what it's cracked up to be. Here are the facts:

Owning a home isn't for everyone. There are reasons not to buy.

The net worth of a homeowner is 39x more than the net worth of a perpetual renter.

So pick your pain. The pain of paying your monthly rent each month with the possibility of your rent increasing in the future. Or the pain of paying down your mortgage balance and getting a tax deduction for the mortgage interest with the possibility of your home needing maintenance or your escrow increasing. Either one could be painful. But most of us will typically live somewhere.

Problem: We needed the right home and we needed it quickly and in the area my client wanted to be in.

Solution: With my knowledge of the local market, new construction communities, builder incentives, lender incentives and loan products, I guided my client to a new construction community that ended up being exactly what they were looking for.

Problem: Buyer insisted on all brick new construction home.

Solution: With my knowledge of the local market, new construction communities, builder incentives, lender incentives and loan products, I guided my client to one of only a few new construction communities left that still build all brick options. Unfortunately all brick options are becoming less and less.

Problem: First time homebuyer who was VERY payment conscious.

Solution: With my knowledge of the local market, new construction communities, builder incentives, lender incentives and loan products, I guided my client to a new construction community with a sub 5% interest rate, no down payment and down payment assistance for being a community helper. And the final payment was $70 less then the ideal payment.

Problem: The childhood home of my childhood friend. Their lovely mother passed and I was asked to help the family sell the home on behalf of the estate.

Solution: With my marketing efforts I determined that the potential and most likely buyer for this home was an out of state client. Marketing was then tailored to out of state buyers and agents that represented out of state buyers. Positive results ensued.

Problem: Life throws your curveball. Sometimes that means plans for your life changes. When that happens, discretion is needed, communication is extremely important and the results are vitally important so that everyone can move forward. This home needed to sell.

Solution: Despite not being any recent comparables, despite a really low appraisal and a number of other hurdles, this property has now sold. Century 21 agents on both sides of the deal made it happen.
