Conatan Did It!

Conatan did it!  (You can too!) He now owns his own home!

When Conatan first called me with an an interest in one of our homes we had for sale, he couldn't qualify for a bank loan but he could still qualify to buy one of our homes. (we have lots of ways for people to buy a home that don't depend on great credit or 20% down).  He moved into the home he wanted and after making his monthly payment faithfully and steadily for 2 years and also by making good choices with his money, he improved his credit and was able to apply for and get his own mortgage with a bank.  I'm so proud of him--and he's proud too! Congratulations Conatan!  You are an encouragement to many other people who have a dream of "home sweet home"!

Getting to home ownership is easier than hiking the Appalachian Trail!  Small steps can make a big difference. For Conatan, just paying his bills on time improved his credit  quickly and got him on the path to owning his own home.

What small step can you make to improve your credit?
1.  Get on a payment plan with medical bills?
2.  Settle out a bad account?
3.  Pay down a credit card bill?

Our Newest Lease-Purchase Buyer!

Our most recent Lease/Purchase buyer is turning his home into something that is most unique!   Every time I see him, he's got plans and drawings he's working on, and he's started demolition!

Bob was such a pleasure to deal with, a buyer that really benefits from our lease purchase opportunity. He was extremely grateful for the opportunity and repeatedly told us, "I can not say thank you enough!"

The Home We Have All Lived In

Remember when this was your home?  Of course you don't!But this is where everyone started out.  This was our very first home.  Things were easy then. But  now our needs have changed.
 

Now we need a roof over our heads; we need a heat pump; we need windows;  we need a driveway and a garage.  We need a nice stove to cook our food and the list goes on.

That's why  in our Business, Better Home Solutions, I have a team that works very hard to find a home someone will love. 
Everyone longs for home. If you're looking for yours, visit the website at www.FindMyHomeSweetHome.com and see what we have available. Be sure to sign up for our VIP email blast so when we have a new home available we will email you first!

By the way, that's my first grandchild you're looking at!  I'll get to see her this month!  Due date is February 25. :)

Another Happy Home

Two sisters found their home sweet home at a beautiful Victorian home we had for sale on a lease purchase yesterday.  They'll be enjoying all that open space in their huge 2200+ home.  They are ready to make great memories there!  there will be roller skating and walks to the library and bike rides....oh happy days.

My New Home

My business has a new home!  It's truly a new home, rebuilt by my contracting team.  Now I have a place to put my files, my calendars, my business computer.  I have a place for people to come and fill out applications, see our latest projects, sell their piece of property or buy a home of their own.

I love this office with its wood floors and windows.  It helps me think clearly just to be here.  It allows me to be inspired.  It gives me a place to have my "alone" room.  I can get so much done here in the peace and quiet.

A Home for Everything

Everything and everyone needs a home... Even my business!  We need a good business location that is a place  accessible to our clients, has enough space for all of our desks and files, and is a convenient distance from relevant locations. Better Homes Solutions LLC has had a home that fits many of these characteristics.

For the past year and a half, our business home has been located in a beautiful old building in downtown Johnson City.  This building used to be the train station.  For a while, the bottom floors were occupied by restaurants - The Sophisticated Otter and Picasso's - but after a while, each restaurant went out of business.  Now a local church has made the bottom two floors its home.  Our business has been in a room on the third floor.  Are you seeing an issue already with the location?  The view is very beautiful - no doubt about that.  However, the six flights of stairs that you have to hike up just to pay a visit gets old fast, especially if you're carrying a load of files and computers.  The beautiful old building is just that: beautiful and old.  The door and window frames don't seal like they used to, the rooms are drafty and always  cold in the winter.  The windows are not sturdy.  Birds have made nests in the outer layer of bricks. More than once, the wind has knocked the office window out of the frame and into the floor of the office, leaving shards of glass everywhere. And of course, if the window is out of the frame, wind and rain wreak havoc on the electronics and paperwork stored in the office.

So, we are scouting for a new home. We're looking for a change: enough of climbing stairs, birds building nests in the walls, windows falling into the office when we have a bad storm, and cold, drafty winters.  We are looking for a home that is on the ground floor.  We want a great downtown location. And we want a place with history. We are looking for a place that will be easy access for all of our visitors.

Stay tuned because we may have found the PERFECT place!!! To be continued...
