It's crazy, but true: not many people are familiar with the value of home ownership. 


Interest rates remain incredibly low - just the other day, we had a client who was able to lock in a 15-year fixed-rate mortgage at 2.75% on a VA loan! 

That's almost stealing money...

Typically, rates for an FHA loan are around 3.75%. Today, if you are renting a $150,000 house, your monthly payments are probably between $1,000 and $1,200. If you were to purchase a home for that same price, your monthly payment would be up to $300 less! Over the course of a year, that is a significant amount of money.

Not only are you saving money by owning property, but you have the joy of home ownership. Instead of helping the landlord pay off their mortgage, you will be building equity you can use down the road. 

If you have questions about the benefits of home ownership, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We would love to help you make the most important and financially rewarding investment of your life!

How we helped Dale with her real estate needs by making sure she had a place to stay



"We had excellent results. Mike did a very good job for us. He really went out of his way to find us a place to stay after we sold our home. He found a house that had been on the market for a long time and called the people to ask if they would let us rent it from them before we moved into our new house. He arranged everything which we really appreciated!"

-Dale Fleischman, Home Buyer

How we helped first time home buyer Mandi by knowing exactly what she needed



"Because of Mike’s experience and help, we were able to buy our first home. We were very inexperienced and really didn’t know what we were doing but Mike helped us along in the whole process. He kept us informed the entire time and overall it was just really great to work with him. We had some communication issues with our builder and Mike was able to take care of the situation and be the intermediate between us and the builder. He knew exactly what to be asking for and what we needed."

-Mandi Beard, Home Buyer
