Always on Point

I am thrilled to welcome Marina to our Podcast today! I’ve gotten to know her over the last few years as I sit on the “Lending and Counseling Committee” at our local down payment loan center to help low to moderate income households achieve homeownership with a financial hand up to help down payments and closing costs! This program is welcomed throughout Brown County in WI and is one that needs to be discussed, more! Today she breaks down the options they have and what a consumer needs to do to get approved.

For those of you who have been following my Podcast, you are acutely aware that Baxter Colburn doesn’t only help me with my videography. He also is the director and producer of the #AlwaysOnPoint Podcast. 

In this episode, we put him in the host chair while he asks me questions about who I am and my whys. We had so much fun swapping spots, and it was important to me that not only do you get to know me, but you understand “my why” and how I get to work/life balance in a career that is pretty 24/7. A special thanks to Baxter for the opportunity and I hope you enjoy it ~ as it was a bit more vulnerable to me.

Today we chat with Delphine Jespersen, who is the Owner of 530 & Co. I hired her on just a short 3 months ago, and she has brought such a great aspect to my understanding of Social. It’s something I’ve always enjoyed doing, but to be honest, had no clue what I was doing and therefore not getting the results I felt I should have. I had the opportunity to bring her on the show to share a lot of what I’ve learned and am still learning. She’s a plethora of ideas, knowledge, and direction. If you are a small business owner (of any kind of business) this Podcast is for you!

Today our guest is Mandi Wilke with Stroll Ledgeview magazine, she has been a great asset in our community in northeastern Wisconsin by bringing local businesses together. She is not only the franchise owner of Stroll Ledgeview but also a working mother friend, podcaster, traveler, and an all-around happy person!

I’ve had the privilege of getting to know her, and I’m excited to introduce you all to her, the reason why I print isn’t dead as well as how to work with the people that are right for you.

So many homeowners have title insurance but have no idea why you'd need it and what it entails. Rosie helps us with all the answers and so much more! Title insurance is so important, that you definitely want to understand the what and why behind it—quite possibly the most important document you have as a homeowner.

Anytime I get together to "talk shop" with Monte Reyment, it's sure to be one of the most fun chats with his realness, vulnerability, and accepting attitude.

On this episode, Monte & I talk about how starting in Real Estate can lead to so many growth options, be it investing, flipping, short-term leasing, long-term renting, the list goes on and on. This is a great discussion on making hard moves when you know you have to "take a chance on yourself."
