Wealth Through Real Estate
Mission: Our Driving Force
Witnessing so many families torn apart by real estate disputes in the wake of a loved one’s passing was deeply disheartening. Learning that 70% of families endure family disputes over real estate made us realize the urgent need for change, and we were determined to spark that transformation.
The problems our clients encountered inspired us to be the solution. Every day we see these challenges:
- Families fighting over real estate.
- Seniors living in dangerous conditions and unaware of safer alternatives.
- Parents worried about the transfer of wealth to their children.
- Paying hundreds of thousands of dollars in capital gains taxes.
- Families struggling with the daunting probate and trust process.
- Owning rental properties without the insights to evaluate the rate of return of their property.
- Frustrated investors, overwhelmed by rental property hassles and unaware of solutions.
Encountering these challenges repeatedly highlighted a critical need for guidance and solutions. This gave birth to the Real Estate Planner!
Changing the Industry from Transactional Agents to Relational Consultants
We realized the industry is predominantly transactional, where agents are facilitators of transactions. We want to spark the industry to be more relational and act as a consultants to provide comprehensive guidance tailored to clients’ needs.
This shift mirrors the evolution seen in the financial industry, from stock brokers to financial planners. We believe in creating a plan that helps you build, protect, and transfer wealth through real estate.
