News from Craig and Amber
Happy September!!
And we all know what that means … Back to school! Granted, it is significantly different from years prior, but the nerves and excitement are still similar. Back to school outfits included hand sanitizer and masks this year. We encouraged the kids to personalize their masks to help make them their own. This way, it would feel as more of an extension of their personality than a school board requirement. Ocean is in grade 10 this year, Roman is in grade 8 and Memphis is in grade 6. We’re hoping to enroll Cali in preschool this year, she is really feeling left out when the other kids leave in the morning. We bought her a new backpack so she would feel like one of the group.
On the real estate front, we updated one of our suites with some gorgeous barn wood wallpaper and a fresh coat of paint. REALLY brightened up the space and our new tenant loves it! We have been working hard with rent-to-own applications and agreements for sale. With mortgage interest rates this low- it’s a great time to be an investor!
Speaking of interest rates, Amber is now fully licensed and part of the Dominion Lending team! She hit the ground running the day after she received her license number and has been busy crunching numbers ever since. It’s a brand new field for her, but she is more than capable and is absolutely loving this new challenge. She is offering applications online. You can check out the link here:
Wishing everyone a great first day back at school!
Stay safe and talk soon!

Why Invest in Real Estate
Real Estate Leverage
Investing in real estate has become a popular way to diversify your investment portfolio. Everywhere we look, we’re constantly reminded of the benefits of buying property, from the many infomercials about real estate seminars, or the home shows that tote the incredible value of managing or flipping rental properties.
But it isn’t that easy. After all, buying a rental property isn’t like investing in stocks—you can’t just put down a little here and there and become a property owner. You need capital to make that purchase. And the process can often be long and drawn out. Not to mention all the risks involved, especially if you don’t do your research. But is there a way to get into the market by increasing your net worth? Try using leverage to your advantage. By doing this, you can put little to no money down, and use debt to help you realize a return.
