Above and Beyond
Over the holiday a conversation about taxi cab companies arose amongst our group at Charlie Hoopers. Four out of six of us had positive stories to share regarding the same local cab company. I'd like to share one of the stories with you.
After a somewhat hectic day, Erin arrived home to discover her purse was not with her. She telephoned all of the places she had stopped that day but no one had seen her purse. This was not just any purse, this was a day timer organizer with all of her contacts, calendar, credit cards, ID, basically everything she needed to live and do business. Replacing all of the contents would be impossible.
The next day she received a call from her bank. Not an 800 number, or corporate headquarters either; the branch that she did business with. They called to say that someone from Atlas Cab had called about her purse. Wow. Then the cab driver brought the purse to the bank. Complete with all of the money, credit cards, ID's, contacts, etc. Someone at Atlas Cab went to a lot of trouble to find the bank's number, place the call, verify the location and identity and then have the purse delivered.
Kudos to Atlas Cab of Kansas City! And a special "hello" to Jill and Alvin from your "Let's drive around and look at the Christmas lights!" customers.

New Year; New Beginnings
Well, the last few weeks of 2008 were a little hectic. Along with the regular Christmas activities, I had a few doctor's appointments that really cut into my time. Glad that's done. The exciting thing was two of my favorite agents asked me to join them in forming a team! What an honor. What a lot of work! Not only did we form a team, we changed brokers. So, I'll start the new year with wonderful views from Prudential KC on the Plaza!

Renovation Loan
I've recently had a number of people ask about how they can include planned renovations in the purchase price of a home. Niki French, the Renovation Specialist at Plaza Mortgage, was kind enough to provide me with more specifics.
First step is to apply for a Purchase & Renovate or Refinance & Renovate loan. This step will require you to provide credit documents, sign the applications and disclosures, and review a contractor's package and copy of renovation disclosures.
Once you receive the pre-approval letter, the renovation specialist will contact you to go over approval conditions.
The purchase agreement should include renovation verbiage.
Schedule inspections and verify permits can be obtained. A HUD certified consultant will help you to determine the scope of the work.
Have your contractor complete and return the contractor's packet.
Once approved by you, your contractor, and the consultant, an appraiser will determine its after improved value.
Final loan approval is issued after the scope of work, appraisal, and loan commitment conditions are reviewed and approved.
You obtain homeowner's insurance, the title is received, final figures are established and the closing documents are signed.
Renovation must begin within 30 days of closing, cannot stop for more than 30 days, and must be completed within 6 months or less.
Money is dispersed as work is completed and inspections completed.
