Some Frequently Asked Questions:

• Can I purchase a home with challenged credit? Yes, many people believe they cannot purchase a home because of existing credit challenges. I want you to know, this is an obstacle that can be overcome. There are many agencies that can help, I partner with agencies in these situations and walk with my client through the process. I have had numerous successes in this area.
• How can I increase the equity of my purchase? By building-in equity. Often times, new construction will enable a homeowner to have instant equity. I work with homeowners and builders to bring the best value to my clients and to help them decide if pre-existing or new construction is best for them. I personally work with the builder and future homeowner hand-in-hand to make this happen. I’m there every step of the way.
• What do I need to know about foreclosures? As mogul Warren Buffet states, “ Look at market fluctuations as your friend rather than your enemy; profit from folly rather than participate in it.” Who better to heed than someone who has done it again and again over time? Purchasing foreclosures and short sales is a brilliant strategy; however, discount properties often require rehab work. Keep this in mind when endeavoring into this type of project. There are mortgage products available aimed to aid in this process and offset cost. I work with knowledgeable mortgage brokers who shed light on these products.
