This morning we heard from Pat Spettel Realtor - RE/MAX Quality Realty about some of the myths about buying and selling real estate.
Here are two examples:

đź’˛"Cash offers are the best."
The terms and conditions of your offer matter. A seller could accept any offer for any reason!

💲“I can price my home high and lower it later.”
Overpricing can actually cause your home to sit longer and lose momentum with buyers.

That’s why working with an experienced realtor matters. Pat takes the time to educate clients, explain the process clearly, and help people make confident decisions instead of emotional ones. Whether you’re buying your first home, upgrading, downsizing, or investing, having the right guide can save you time, stress, and money.

If you’ve been thinking about making a move but have questions, now is probably the best time to start the conversation. 🏠 Pat is a full time realtor serving the north, central Ohio area.

Primerica representative Patrick shared an informative presentation on the importance of life insurance and protecting families from unexpected financial hardship. He explained how life insurance can provide security for loved ones by helping cover expenses such as mortgage payments, income replacement, debt, education costs, and final expenses.
Greg discussed the differences between term life insurance and permanent life insurance, emphasizing why many families choose term insurance for its affordability and higher coverage amounts during the years protection is needed most. He also reviewed the concept of “buy term and invest the difference,” explaining how individuals may use the money saved on lower premiums to build long-term savings and investments separately.

Protect and care for your loved ones. Call Greg to put a strategy in place before life’s unexpected events occur.

Today we heard from Sara Reed with Future Innovators, an amazing nonprofit helping kids learn how to build robots, work with 3D printers, problem solve, and compete in robotics finals!

Programs like this do so much more than teach technology. Kids learn:
• Teamwork and communication
• Critical thinking and problem solving
• Creativity and innovation
• Leadership skills
• Confidence through competition
• Real-world STEM skills that can lead to future careers

In a world surrounded by technology, these students aren’t just consuming it… they’re learning how to BUILD it. 🤖

Future Innovators is currently looking for:
🔹 Adults interested in volunteering part-time
🔹 Junior high and high school students who want to get involved and learn

This is an incredible opportunity for students who love technology, gaming, engineering, design, or simply trying something new.

Please reach out to Sara at Future Innovators right here in Norwalk to learn more about getting involved and helping shape the next generation of innovators!

Are you tired of guessing if you’re getting the right tires… or worse, ordering them online and ending up with the wrong ones?

It happens all the time. You find a “deal,” click order, and then realize they don’t fit, don’t ride right, or aren’t even the right load rating for your vehicle. Now you’re stuck with returns, delays, and a whole lot of frustration.

That’s why people go see Bob at District Tire.

He’s built one of the largest tire shops in the area by doing things the right way — taking care of people. When you fill out a quote on their website, Bob or a team member personally looks it over and makes sure you’re getting the exact right tire for your vehicle, your driving habits, and your budget.

No guessing. No costly mistakes. Just honest advice and top-tier customer service.

đź’» Fill out the online quote and let a pro double-check it before you buy.

If you want it done right the first time, District Tire Center is the right move.
