Newspaper Article About 2010 Tax Credit
April 30, 2010
I was quoted in the local newspaper today about the tax credit expiring and how it’s effected our local economy and housing market. Here’s what I said. Link to full story
“It’s kind of a mad rush right now for everybody to get that tax credit,” said Joey Marino, a Realtor for Whipple Financial Services (supposed to be Whipple Realty, that’s our sister company) in Perry Township, who adds that his sales are 50 percent higher than a few months ago as home prices start to rise in the township areas outside of Canton. “I have people calling me, saying they want a contract by the end of April 30th. … I’m selling a majority of my properties right now.”
And it’s true. We are seeing a lot of activity. I think the market is on a rebound and we’ve seen the end of the downward moving prices. Now that the credit has expired, we may see a drop off in sales, but if people still continue to purchase, I think this economy could turn around completely
Rent-To-Own, Land Contracts, Lease Options, Owner Financing
April 27, 2010
One of the emerging markets in today’s real estate environment is special financing. We are seeing more and more people looking for homes for sale with rent-to-own, lease options, land contracts, or another type of owner financing due to the tight restrictions banks have placed on borrowers lately.
I have started an owner financing program which allows me to effectively match local buyers and sellers looking to take advantage of this quickly growing market.
Help me find me a home with special or owner financing!!
Contact me if you are a Stark or Summit County resident looking to buy or sell real estate in this fashion.

First Time Home Buyer Testimonial
April 4, 2010
Dennis and Trisha just bought their first home and were so pleased with our service they’re even going to invite me to their wedding! You better not have a buffet at the reception Trish, or I’m going to have to eat someone at the end of the line out of any food…
Here’s a testimonial written by Trish:
I have no hesitations at all in fully recommending Joey Marino. We had no idea what kind of home we wanted, and several times took up several hours of Joey’s days trying to figure it all out. Joey was totally patient with us, was very honest, and amazingly generous with his time and effort. Joey went completely out of his way more than once to ensure we were able to get our home. I truly believe no other realtor would go to the lengths that Joey did to make it happen for us. I cannot thank him enough for all that he has done. He has made the first-time-home-buying experience an easy and completely satisfying one. THANK YOU, JOEY!!!!! You’ve made a dream come true!
Thank you guys, and I truly enjoyed working for you. May your new house bring you many many years of joy and may you invite me to all your pool parties!
