PAT VAN BEBBER - Listing/Buyer Agent

Email:
PatVB@ReeceAndNichols.com

I started my Real Estate career in 1985 when my youngest son was getting ready to graduate from high school. I was very blessed to be able to stay home with my 3 children while they were young but decided it was time for me to start a career and I chose Real Estate. I have earned many awards and designations over the years, but the award that I value the most is all the people that I have helped in their most important purchase of their lives. I have been the #1 individual agent in the Lee's Summit Reece & Nichols office for the past couple of years, so it seemed natural when I decided to cut back on the number of hours I want to work that I would join the #1 team not only at Reece & Nichols Lee's Summit office but the #1 team in Missouri.

Real Estate Tips

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.

Let me give you a brief overview of what I believe makes a great agent. Most agents continue to do things that were being done years ago to sell real estate. If you are looking to buy or sell and you have internet access and would like to use it during your home buying or home selling process, please shoot us an email and let’s chat for a few minutes. My goal is not to brag about my status in the company and how much I sell, it’s to make your next move as fun and painless as possible. Top agent status always seems to follow. I look forward to hearing from you.
