-Empowering Buyers with Confidence to Build their New Construction Home!
Your Experts in Buyer Representation, Home Lending & Finishing Coordination
Most folks don't realize or think about it but New Construction Home Builders have in almost all cases budgeted "sales and marketing" costs into their prices. If a prospective buyer doesn't exercise their option to be represented by a "Buyer's Agent" they lose out on a benefit that is an option to them. The benefit is called "Agency" and by having agency with a buyers agent (Realtor) representing you in a real estate transaction, you can take advantage of many benefits including 1 An advocate & guide for you through the process 2 Buyer's Agent Fiduciary Duties to you as a client. 3 Benchmarking Industry Knowledge ensuring Quality & timely delivery.
On the lending side of the transaction, some buyers are unaware that by simply going to their local bank, they may not get the best mortgage interest rate or term. When utilizing Chris Ekeler of Omaha New Build as your Mortgage Broker, he shops rates from many reputable lenders to find you the best available rate that fits your needs.
About Your REALTOR®/Buyers Agent
As a guy that grew up in the Midwest and then moved away first as a teen and then again as an adult to experience places like Arizona, Colorado and California, I believe Nebraska is perhaps one of the BEST places in this country to live which is why I chose to raise my family here in the Omaha metro. The cost of living is reasonable. Our community is filled with hard-working, honest and genuine Midwestern Folks.
As a REALTOR® with Nebraska Realty, my passion is to assist you in building your American Dream-whatever your version of that may look like. I believe Real Estate/Housing is one of the greatest tools in building wealth for most Americans.
I have assisted 100s of clients in achieving their housing goals including working with 12+ new construction builders. Through this process I have met some quality builders but have also learned they all operate a little different. This valuable experience allows me to pair you based on your needs with the right builder.
About Your Lender/Loan Officer
I have lived in the Midwest most of my life and I have always appreciated the hard-working culture the Midwest offers. In my younger years, I played hockey and chased my dream of someday becoming a professional hockey player! I even relocated to Colorado to chase that dream. Hockey taught me to outwork my competitors, move fast, and be decisive as my team members were always counting on me! When that dream ended, I moved back to Omaha and started a family. My wife and five lovely daughters share a passion of working hard, playing hard, loving hard, and serving others! Over the years, most of my work experience was in managing and even owning a business. The work was good but lacked validation for me and real impact on clients’ lives. Understanding that life is short, I knew I wanted my next career to make a difference, bless people, and change lives!
The mortgage industry meets my life goals with respect to both having a lasting impact and a responsibility to my clients’ personal and practical needs! I chose Pillar Financial Mortgage when I realized their company core values align with mine and have enhanced my vision for the future! Now I work hard, serve hard, love hard and play hard! As a man and a family, we have never been happier!
I have assisted 1,000s of buyers with their home lending needs and look forward to leveraging my experience, honesty and integrity to help you.
