A Very Special Custom Home For a Very Special Family! 

Follow the story of a special family, the Breza's, over the next few months on our website, during their journey towards greater freedom and independence within their home, to which most of us never give a second thought.  

Tim Flynn, President/Owner of HomesPlus Designers Builders (www.homesplusinc.com) and Chuck Hartell of Edina Realty (www.edinarealty.com) are working with John and Karen Breza to custom build a handicap accessible home in Otsego, Minnesota. 

Ten years ago, John Breza, husband and father, was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Multiple sclerosis (MS; pronounced multiple skluh-RO-siss) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the nerves. "Chronic" means that it develops slowly over time; "autoimmune" means that the body's immune system becomes confused about some part of the body it is designed to protect. It attacks that part of the body as if it were a foreign invader. MS affects a person's ability to move, to feel, and to control his or her body functions (this definition was taken from the web-based Free Health Encyclopedia). MS has left John with the inability to freely move around his current split-level home. It requires an enormous amount of physical effort, again, something that most of us take for granted.  

The Breza's story is one of determination for a better and easier way of life. Tim Flynn of HomesPlus and Chuck Hartell have custom designed a handicap accessible rambler style home (one story home with walkout lower level) to be built for the Breza's in Otsego, Minnesota...with a very affordable price tag! In addition to affordability, HomesPlus is known throughout the community as an ethical builder that builds high quality homes and stands behind their construction and promises. Chuck and Tim have been working together building dreams for families for over 20 years! 

Check back to see how the custom build process progresses over the next few months with photos and design and construction details. We look forward to having you follow the Breza's story with us!

Breza's Vacant Otsego, MN Lot

Week of June 29th, the Breza's met with Tim Flynn of HomesPlus at their vacant lot in Otsego, Minnesota. Following a walk of the lot, they all met back at Tim's office for the Pre-Construction Meeting. At this meeting Tim typically goes over the following agenda: 

* Reviews the plans with the client
* Answers any questions or concerns of the client regarding those plans and/or anything pertaining to the overall construction process
* Discusses the contruction process, including timelines and guidelines (ie. the permit, ground-breaking, foundation pouring all the way to the actual closing process)
* The client will make exterior selections while in the office for such items as siding, brick/stone accents, roofing shingles etc.
* The client will also begin to make a few interior selections such as cabinetry and hardware
* Tim will go over the staking of the lot
* Lastly, the client will receive a folder of information including the items discussed previously and a list of vendors the client can meet with to make other interior design/fixture selections.

Real Estate Tips
Financing Your Home >Owner Financing

If you are selling a house in which you have a lot of equity, and you don't need that equity to buy a new home, an owner-financing agreement may benefit you and your buyers.

Seller financing arrangements usually involve the buyers securing the largest portion of their purchase money from a mortgage company and getting a smaller second loan from the sellers. For example, they may finance 75% from a lender, put in 15% from savings, and ask the sellers to finance the remaining amount. The terms and interest rates on seller carry-backs are negotiated on a case-by-case basis.

Sellers may be able to negotiate a note that provides a better return on their money than 1-to-5 year CD's or treasury notes. They should ensure that the note protects them to the fullest. Use common sense when considering such a loan, and verify the buyers' income, credit history, and job stability before making your final decision.
