Confused about buying a short sale or a bank owned and what it all entails? Check out Thom's blog on how to buy one at : http://bendhomepage.com/REALdeal/Blog.html  Here On our Bend Real Estate Site, You'll Find Information on Bend, Redmond, Prineville, LaPine, and Sunriver, Oregon Properties! In contrast to the many Bend real estate agents who moved here during the boom years of 2004-2006 to cash in on the hot market and have just as quickly left town looking for the "next Boomtown", we have lived in Central Oregon since 1990, and have been practicing Bend Real Estate since 1992. This is not a temporary business for us, nor a get rich quick scheme. We are investors in the Bend Real Estate market, and have been for some time. We have seen Bend Real Estate agents treat their clients as numbers, and since we can remember being treated that way as investors, we made it our goal to be different. We know the area better than the vast majority of Bend Realtors, because we have been here and called the area Home for a long time. And we have no intention of leaving to find the "next hot market". This is where we live. And Bend Real Estate is what we do.  * Looking for Bend homes? Click on the Listings Player to Enlarge and Search all of our listings! * We have also provided a tool to view all of Deschutes County's/ Bend MLS listings- just click on the FIND button above! * Expert advice?

The Gardner Team provides professional services to customers and clients to facilitate their home purchases and home sales. We are successful because we prospect continually on your behalf, and because constantly strive to improve ourselves, what we do, and how we do it. We do the little things that 90% of our colleagues don't, such as going to each and EVERY MLS weekly meeting, because that is where the real dealmakers are. Less than 100 of the more than 1000 agents here go at all. We concentrate on Quality Service to our customers and clients. We treat our clients' interests as if they were our own, and we provide service to our customers as we would wish to receive ourselves. We will always be the best at what we do! We focus all of our energy and resources with uncompromising honesty and integrity toward meeting the needs of our clients. WE PRACTICE WHAT WE PREACH! We invest in real estate and rental homes and have for over 30 years.

First Time Buyers >More Down Payment Help
One of the most common deterrents to first-time home buyers is the lack of a down payment. However, the home loan industry has practically re-created itself in the last ten years, making it easier than ever to obtain a mortgage, and new mortgage programs are always cropping up.
Some states sponsor loan programs that allow buyers to purchase a home without putting any money down. A parent or other relative can guarantee repayment of ten percent of the loan if the buyer defaults. The only cash needed is for the closing costs, which typically run about three percent of the loan. Parents can also give their children down payment help through a personal note or second trust deed. The terms can be set up for monthly payments or annual payments amortized over a period of time. You could pay the interest only, and have the payoff due when the property is sold.
With so many alternatives, doesn't it make sense to call your real estate agent for a free consultation? You may be closer to home ownership than you think.
