WORK HISTORY Broker/ Realtor
RE/MAX Space Center Thirty years experience beginning when the growth
pattern of the Clear Lake area was commencing. After eight years in the
management field of real estate, which broadened my perspective of all aspects
related to buying or selling a home, I began devoting full time to sales and
listings. My risk assessment and road maps for the clients I represent allows
for a plan to achieve the goals and objectives of my clients. Keeping abreast
of current inventory on a daily basis allows home buyers to select a home from
all available resources. My responsibility in making a relocation transition
successful does not end with a purchase or sale of a home. My customer service
is an ongoing process. My repeat business is strong and accounts for 75% of my
sales.

Financing Your Home >Owner Financing
If you are selling a house in which you have a lot of equity, and you don't need that equity to buy a new home, an owner-financing agreement may benefit you and your buyers.
Seller financing arrangements usually involve the buyers securing the largest portion of their purchase money from a mortgage company and getting a smaller second loan from the sellers. For example, they may finance 75% from a lender, put in 15% from savings, and ask the sellers to finance the remaining amount. The terms and interest rates on seller carry-backs are negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
Sellers may be able to negotiate a note that provides a better return on their money than 1-to-5 year CD's or treasury notes. They should ensure that the note protects them to the fullest. Use common sense when considering such a loan, and verify the buyers' income, credit history, and job stability before making your final decision.
