If you have been wondering where the residential real estate market is headed and what to expect in the near future, you definitely do not want to miss this guest and all we cover. I had Dominic DesMarais in the studio to chat about everything real estate and since he is a top mortgage producer he knows a little something about where the market has been and where it is heading. Dominic strongly believes that it is still an amazing opportunity to be a purchaser in today's market but even more importantly it needs to be the right timing. He also explains what a ‘Reverse Mortgage’ is and how it may benefit the baby boomer generation in purchasing / securing their next home without the risk of a new long-term mortgage. We are in desperate need of houses and the baby boomers are sitting on the most amount of supply. If they just knew all the options they had in today’s incredible market and how to best navigate these conditions we may slowly be able to free up some much-needed inventory.

I’m almost certain you will become a little teary-eyed after listening to the incredible journey of one family of missioners looking to make a difference in one of the most impoverished and dangerous areas in the Western Hemisphere.

Listen to how this journey has been their calling. They are on a mission to provide food, education, medical care, shelter, freedom from sex trafficking, and care for these children.

Hear how Steve, Brandy, and their children created Java Relief with the sole purpose of making a difference in the lives of these children.

Fair warning, you may want to have a fresh Kleenex box nearby :) .
