One of the biggest misconceptions in buying a home is that all loans are the same and all loan products offer the same interest rate thus making some home shoppers think they can’t afford a nice home. This is not true. Not all loan products are the same and because each individual home buyer’s situation is different one loan product might be better for you than another.

Hello Friends,

Mortgage loans are organized into categories typically based on the size of the loan and whether they are part of a government program. The loan choice you make could affect your down payment amount, the total amount of your loan over time, how much you can borrow and the price of the home you should consider.

Every home buyer's situation and needs are different. Therefore, I encourage you to look at different loan options and ask a professional lender (like me) to guide you through those options. You will become better educated as to which loan type will be the best value for you.

To chat about your home buying situation, call or email me!

The original abstract from 1955 when the land was purchased, showing the history of the owners, conveys with the sale to the new owners.

The home is offered for $1,000,000. Additional information can be found at cbuplife.com or by contacting Meredith Vertreese at 816.518.3234.

The Professional’s Choice for Building Mater ials

R E SIDENTIA L & C O MM E R CIA L

We have been the professional’s choice for building materials – residential and commercial since 2008, but have ex tensive experience before the founding of our company We specialize in building materials for remodeling, any t ype of home improvement, repair work , and new construction E x teriors & Outdoors works for all commercial and residential consumers, and we offer a full line of materials, including stone, brick , stucco, steel, hardscapes, accessories, siding, decking and outdoor living.

In the words of Bob Dylan, "The times they are a-changin'." Kansas City's housing and real estate industry is doing just that: changing. As customer expectations and budgets adjust to recent economic shifts, many industry professionals are taking steps to adapt to this evolving commercial landscape and customer service climate.

One builder that has been proactively preparing for this shift is B.L. Rieke Custom Homes in Lenexa, Kansas. Well-known and respected, this family-ownedand-operated custom homebuilding company has a longstanding reputation for expertly assessing and acclimating to industry fluctuations, past and present.

“Design trends are constantly changing, and we are able to change with the trends,” says Toni, B.L. Rieke’s lead interior designer. “We focus on building a home our customers want, love, and feel most comfortable in, regardless of trends.”

“Over the past few years, our customers are wanting homes with a smaller footprint,” Bruce Rieke, B.L. Rieke’s co-owner and builder, explains.“ We’re eliminating unused rooms and focusing on the spaces they use every day and the custom details that personalize their home.”

Evidenced by their 33 years in business, B.L. Rieke’s co-founding couple, Bruce and Toni Rieke, have demonstrated an uncanny ability to thrive as market conditions and trends change. A large part of their adaptive success stems from their dedication to an exceptionally high level of quality, detail, and service.

Designed for timeless appeal and longevity, B.L. Rieke's homes are also built to last—and amaze— for a lifetime. This commitment to "futureproofing" the look, feel, and caliber of their homes is one of many qualities that sets Bruce and Toni apart as industry trailblazers and trendsetters.

In recent years, the couple has meticulously crafted numerous custom and model home builds in and around Johnson County, Kansas. Notable projects include their multi-awardwinning Captiva Model Home (2021) and Pensacola Artisan Home (2022). Both are currently occupied and located in Timber Rock —B.L. Rieke's luxury new home development in Lenexa, Kansas.

2022 Artisan Home Tour Raises Over $100,000 for JDRF

The Home Builders Association of Greater Kansas City (KCHBA) recently announced that the 2022 Artisan Home Tour, which was held three weekends in June (June 3-5, 10-12, and 17-19), raised $103,054 for JDRF, the leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes (T1D) research.

The donation was raised through ticket sales, individual builder parties and tour sponsorships. The 2022 tour featured eleven unique homes built by some of Kansas City’s finest custom home builders.

“JDRF was honored to partner with the KCHBA on the Artisan Home Tour,” said Sherri Lozano, Executive Director of JDRF Kansas and Missouri Chapter. “At JDRF, we’re leading the fight against type 1 diabetes by funding research, advocating for policies that accelerate access to new therapies, and providing a support network for people impacted by T1D. We are so grateful to all the generous donors that bring us closer to a world without type 1 diabetes. Thank you to the KCHBA and the Artisan Home Tour!”

Leading up to the tour, the Artisan home builders were each paired with a JDRF youth ambassador. Together, they learned about the process of building a home as well as the challenges associated with having T1D. They posted videos and photos each time they met to show the progress of the home and to bring awareness to the need for a cure for T1D.

“We are so proud that this event supported JDRF,” said Scott Bickford, 2022 chair of the Artisan Home Tour and owner of Bickford & Company. “The builders had the good fortune to meet JDRF youth ambassadors and get acquainted with these amazing young people.”

Presented by Ferguson Enterprises, the Artisan Home Tour highlights the unique abilities, creativity and imagination that is achievable when building a custom home. Homes on the Artisan Tour are held to the highest standard using the finest materials and incorporating the kind of detail and character.

The 2022 Newcomer of the Year Award was presented to Mike Cooper, RE/MAX Premier Properties. The Newcomer of the Year Award is given each year to a new salesperson who has been licensed for fewer than 18 months for outstanding accomplishments. In his first nine months of business, Cooper worked on 25 transactions totaling over $12 million in volume.

The 2022 Salesperson of the Year Award was presented to Monica Angeles, Jones Heritage REALTORS®.
