CHAPTER 1 How Real Estat eal Estate Agents e Agents Help Home Buyers
I’ll come right out at the start and tell you I’m not real estate agent, but I am a mortgage loan officer and proudly so! Nice to meet you! I’m not trying to sell you anything, but I’m pleased to be of service. In fact, generally, real estate agents for buyers are paid for out of the listing agent’s commission. So, I’m not looking to part you from your money. Instead, I’m giving you the benefits of experience and advice I have gained throughout my 39 plus year career being a mortgage lender that has handled over 5000 real estate transactions — for both sellers and buyers. If you would like me to help you finance a house, or just get a second option, I would love to talk. Please feel free to call me, my personal cell number is 330-936-3343. I am normally available Mon-Sun from 8:30 AM - 8:00 PM (EST) Technology has changed the way homes are sought and bought today.
