Home Buyers of the Month - Olivia & Chanmary

Olivia & Sister Chanmary

Believe It Is Possible

OLIVIA FOUND US THROUGH a Google search. She took both our home buyer and landlord training classes. She didn’t have a team built and wanted a second opinion on how to approach her first home purchase. Shortly after completing the program, Olivia met with Ed Alcantara, our home buyer counselor, for a home readiness assessment. The meeting reinforced what she had learned in the classes. She built her team. Donna Koulas of Northern Bank and Trust was her loan officer. Linda Kody of Kody & Company was her real estate agent. She moved forward with a “MHP One Mortgage” with no private mortgage insurance.

Olivia looked at 5 homes. She found a 2 family home that was under construction. This was appealing because she was able to customize her home. Purchasing a multifamily home was also appealing since she could become financially independent by having rental income.

To prepare herself for being a landlord, Olivia took our Landlord Training class. She learned what to expect as a landlord with regard to tenant selection, property maintenance and tenant’s rights. “The class provided a lot of confidence. “The selection of tenants is very important so I am careful and thorough. It has worked out well. Believe it is possible!”
