n Las
Vegas Nevada around 2001 a myself and a group of my business partners
were having lunch. We discussing the real estate market in Las Vegas at
the time which was starting to really explode.
We were discussing how to educate our
clients during the mortgage and real estate processes and how to educate
them for life after they moved into their homes.
As a result of that meeting the EL EQUIPO
LATINO (the Latin Team) was formed providing outreach to the Las Vegas
Community in Home Buyer education, Credit counseling and life financial
counseling . We consulted on how and held how to seminars on opening
banking accounts, the proper way to maintain and manage your credit, how
to start credit. How to buy a car and not have the dealer give you a
bad deal. In 2007 after retiring from one of the nation's largest
financial institutions. I went to work for myself as a mortgage banker
and continued forward. The group at first handed out fliers door to
door at fairs and community events. In 2003 with the help of one our
business partners a Radio show called "Consejos para su Casa" (Advice
for your Home) started running on KRLV the Hispanic market talk station.
on Saturdays and Sundays 9 am to 10 am, which grew to 2 hrs on Sundays 9
am to 11 am. in 2004 until it 2008 when I had a double stroke and
later moved to Laredo to meet that special lady GOD put in my life.
Laredo is unique as it is a border town, Texas has been blessed with
stronger economy than most areas of the country. I have re established
El Equipo Latino of Laredo and we are here ready to carry out the same
mission statement and Community outreach as we did in Las Vegas. The
team has changed but it is as strong as ever. Our goal is to make sure
no one ever has to not know about their financial life questions
again.. We offer extremely low cost financial life consulting and our
motto is "IF YOU DO
NOT ASK THE QUESTION: HOW WILL YOU EVER KNOW THE ANSWER".
