Christina Banks
I grew up in Germany and studied in England, Spain and France. In the mid 70's when I moved to Florida and was looking for a place to live, my then husband wanted to buy a home right away. We could not qualify for a mortgage since I had no job and he had just started one. Nevertheless we kept looking and found a cute place for $16,000 and the owner was willing to hold the mortgage for us. I was fascinated by the process of looking for homes and working towards homeownership and decided to obtain a Realtor license. Realtek Real Estate in West Palm Beach was the company I affiliate with. At that time we still had the bulky MLS books, which showed the listings and information in print. Remember 1978 when interest rates climbed from 9% to 11% and up to 16.5%. Not much Real Estate changed hands at that time. I was glad when I was offered full time employment in the mortgage industry where I remained till 2010 helping homeowners with all types of financing be it construction, government or conventional loans. 2010 brought many changes and I decided I returned to Real Estate, a career which is diverse and flexible and where there is always something new to learn. It is very rewarding to see the smiles on buyer's faces when they receive the keys to their new home after closing, or the seller thanking you after all the paperwork is done and they have received their money from the sale of the property. That is great and I love to be part of it.
