Senior Advantage



LAURA LOMAN'S SENIOR ADVANTAGE PROGRAM


The information and services below are offered to all my senior buyers and sellers and can save you thousands of dollars on your next real estate transaction. I created these savings by compiling a list of vendors who have agreed to offer my clients significant discounts on the services they offer. You will be eligible to receive these discounts when you become one of my senior clients.

Because I am dedicated to Seniors, I have achieved the Senior Services Designation.  Click here to read about what this designation means.

Reverse Mortgages..Are They Right For You?

A reverse mortgage is a loan against the equity in the home that provides tax-free cash advances, but requires no payments during the term of the loan. Since there are no monthly payments during the life of the loan, the balance grows larger and the equity gets smaller. Find out if a reverse mortgage is right for you.

1031 Tax Deferred Exchanges
The Delayed (Starker) Tax Deferred Exchange is one of the finest opportunities for mature clients to optimize the return on real estate investments and move their equities with them when they retire or move. My clients receive an EXCLUSIVE 5% Special Senior Discount on the accommodator fees charged by Starker to complete the exchange.
