Real Estate and Development
You Need Nancy Now!!
Nancy Benevides; RE/MAX Southwest
Selling a home has become extremely complex with two recent regulations intended to protect consumers now in place. Home Valuation Code of Conduct (HVCC) and the Mortgage Disclosure Improvement Act (MDIA) have had a HUGE impact on appraised values and the timeliness of closings recently. You need a full time educated realtor on your side that understands the current market and knows how to handle appraisal disputes and other issues that can arise from the new lending laws. Don ’t be frustrated by the “lingo” and don’t leave one of the biggest transactions of your life in the hands of an inexperienced agent.   Nancy Benevides has the knowledge and experience to get you to the closing table! Call her at 713-203-9975 or e-mail NancyBenevides@yahoo.com.
