Owner of Painting Solutions, LLC, Dan Peck, started painting as a summer job in high school and has been freshening up homes and businesses ever since. “I took those skills and started my own company,” says Dan. “I enjoy the satisfaction of painting. There’s no other home project like it. I love seeing the customers’ reactions to our work. They’re happy and it feels good to be a part of that.” Not only does painting freshen the look of a place, it’s also the most cost effective way to increase the value of your home. Statistics say that a $1,000 painting investment offers just over a $2,000 increase in home value. “And it’s worth it to hire professionals,” says Dan. “Good work isn’t cheap and cheap work isn’t good. We are very fairly priced for the work we do, I make sure of that. And I’ll do anything to make sure the customer is happy with the result.”
Gateway Title
8748 Brecksville Rd. Suite 100, Brecksville, OH 44141
Rachel Torchia, owner of Gateway Title Agency, has been working in the real estate industry since 1977. First as a Realtor, then in the marketing and title and escrow sides of the industry, Rachel decided to focus solely on FSBO transactions and created Gateway Title Agency in 1993. “When people decide to sell their homes without a Realtor, it’s a personal decision—but they still need experienced guidance through the process,” says Rachel. “That’s where Gateway Title Agency comes in. In Ohio, you can sell your home without an attorney or even a lender if the buyer offers cash, but you need a title company to examine and insure your title. Our free kit will walk you through the entire title and escrow process.” Gateway Title Agency also offers a workshop where experts like appraisers and Realtors offer advice about marketing and preparing your own home for sale, paperwork necessary for FSBO transactions, and everything involved in selling your own home. “Today, 25 percent of the home sale market is FSBO deals,” says Rachel. “We love helping people through this process and seeing them feel victorious in getting it done—and saving a lot of money along the way.”
