    Tony Farias is a loan officer with American Pacific Mortgage. He was born in Boston but raised in Salt Lake City where he’s been for 35 years. Tony always wanted to be in the real estate field, as he loves to learn and to help and knows that people are always going to need someone to help them in their journey to finding a home.
    What Should People Look for in Mortgage Companies?
    Tony begins by saying that everyone wants you to have a great experience, but the difference often lies in the individual you’re talking to. How well do they respond? Do they have a team backing them up? These internal factors help keep the client and the agent informed, which Tony believes is the first step in having a good experience.
    When it comes to deciding between a bank or credit union and a mortgage company, Tony has worked for both, so he has great information to inform your decision. Bank guidelines are tighter than most mortgage companies, and while they have better rates, the question of how dedicated they are to their clients is still important. Mortgage companies have longer hours and are more dedicated around the clock.

    Heather Rae Swanger is the owner of the Utah Real Estate School, one of few locally-owned real estate schools in the country. She is a University of Utah graduate who loves education and teaching and is passionate about the value of a career in real estate.
    When asked about the high-fail rate of new real estate agents, Heather says it comes down to two things. One is that when faced with an uncertain future of a self-employed career, many people struggle with the fear and shock of no longer being an ‘employee.’ Secondly, it takes a few months for agents to close their first deal, and by that time, many quit before they begin thanks to self-doubt and discouragement.
    Heather is working to reduce that rate through her school. In her test prep, she tries to inspire determination in all her students. She stresses the importance of surrounding yourself with like-minded, reliable people, as real estate is all about having a team. This is the American dream, t

    Despite all the obstacles in his way, Nev Kraguljevic was determined to make a better life for himself in the United States. He immigrated from Serbia with very little money and not knowing any English. However, he worked hard and earned his bachelor’s degree in just two years and nine months—this determination to succeed carried over into other areas of his life. After losing everything in a market meltdown, Nev could have given up. But instead, he used this experience to motivate him to find new ways to invest and become financially independent. At 38, Nev became financially independent and able to retire. And now, he wants to help others do the same through his financial education company, 1 Deal Away.

    Craig Whiting is one of the owners of Prime Real Estate Experts. He has a master’s degree in real estate development as well as years of experience that allow him to provide superior service to his clients.

    Craig lives by the Japanese proverb, “Fall down seven times, stand up eight.” Despite the difficult times, he was in, he knew that the opportunity to succeed in entrepreneurship was still there. As long as he kept standing up, he would never fail. The days when he had the desire to give up and stay in bed were the moments that defined Craig as a person.

    His secret to compelling himself forward was gratitude. Even at his lowest, Craig would number the good things in his life, such as his family, his house, and the food they ate. This practice helped him see the small successes he had every day.

    Doug Horne started Horne Management Group. The company is a hotel management and development company and has also been or is involved in projects including various commercial projects including hotel development, student housing, custom homes, 18-hole golf course, and clubhouse known as Talon’s Cove Golf Course also located in Saratoga Springs. Doug is a fellow east coast guy and was born in Washington, D.C.

    Doug recounts an important lesson that his father imparted on him, which was integrity. After an unsuccessful business deal, Doug’s father nearly declared bankruptcy--but rather than throwing in the towel, he decided to fight through and ended up paying back every dime. This worked in his favor in the long run, as he was later to borrow any money he needed to because he had built a reputation of having integrity and a strong work ethic.
