October 2026 Homeward Bound Newsletter - It's getting SCARY OUT HERE!!

HOMEWARD BOUND NEWSLETTER | OCTOBER 2026

I know you are going to probably say, “This guy doesn’t even celebrate Halloween!”

Correct I don’t. But even though I personally don’t celebrate Halloween now due to my own personal beliefs, I’m not saying that I have never done so.

Back in the day when I was a kid we used to dress up in costumes, I wanted to be Richie Rich and Count Dracula...Yep I know...Richie Rich was a different complexion but for a day I could pretend to rich and have a dog named Dollar! And Count Dracula had a cool cape, could fly around town and could hypnotize people...yeah I know! It was pretty cool hanging out with friends wandering through different neighborhoods, going door to doo trick-or-treating past our normal curfews while eating candy all night! And yes, we had older bullies that would run past and snatch candy bags so we got smart and used pillow cases which we could hold on to just a little bit tighter while keeping look out for the Debo’s of the block. ( If you know, you know. If you don’t well that’s good. You were fortunate enough to grow up in a nicer neighborhood)

If You or a Friend are Thinking About Buying or Selling, Make Sure to Choose a Real Estate Company You Can Trust!

A real estate company with experience, proven results and a give-back philosophy!

How to HELP someone you know out of a stressful situation!

Deciding to make a move to a new home carries with it a lot of stress. Not only are there hundreds of big and little details to attend to, not to mention a bucketful of emotions, there are also serious financial matters at stake...interest rates hit 7.25%!! This doesn’t make things easier. Will you be able to afford the mortgage payment of a new home? Will you get what you want and need when your home sells? With our experience of working with almost 1,000 families over the last 20 years, we’ve developed a special program to help homeowners make their move Fast, For Top Dollar and with the Least Hassle as well as help buyers get the Best Home at the Best Price with the Least amount of Hassle!

For the month of October, I will guarantee, in writing, the sale of NW Indiana area home for 100% of Market Value or I Will Pay the Difference. And I will guarantee to save a buyer $10,000 off the price of their new home or I will pay them $1,000 cash at closing!

I know there’s some risk on my part to make such incredible guarantees, but we are selling just about every home we list for the market value price — sometimes even more — so there is no reason for NW Indianan homeowners or your friends and family to fret about selling right now. And we help our buyers get closing costs paid and discounted mortgage rates from lenders!

We are very happy we got to do business with you and I’m confident that your referrals will be very happy with you for steering them in the right direction to help them get their home sold!

Another way you can help someone deal with a truly scary situation is to partner with us to put a smile on the face of some little ones who could use it most.

We’d like to partner with you in an even more significant way to give a much-needed break to some children who are putting in a level of work that’s hard to imagine. As part of our mission statement, we donate a portion of our income from homes sales to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Many don’t know that they lead the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Families NEVER receive a bill from the hospital for treatment, travel, housing, or food - because they believe all a family should worry about is helping their child live! Donations make this possible. So, YOUR REFERRALS DO HELP THE KIDS.

If you are one that celebrates Halloween and you’re handing out treats, think about lending a hand to someone you know who might have to pass on doing so entirely because they need to sell their home for one reason or another. For many, that can be a truly scary prospect with a monstrous to-do list and horrifying uncertainty surrounding timelines, finances and things to do. It can be pretty tricky trying to get everything to work perfectly, but we can help! (See inside for details)

Over the last 2 decades of helping almost a thousand families sell their home and/or buy another, we have met some wonderful, loving, caring people. People like you! As we move forward, please know we are extremely thankful for you being a special part of our business.

Thank you in advance for your referrals!

The best number to reach me at is 219-281-8502.

We are so grateful. Thank you for reading over this month’s Homeward Bound and thank you for referring anyone you know considering buying or selling to my team. They will be in good hands and a very worthy cause will benefit as well.

With all my appreciation,
