Homes For Heroes – The Shanley Team

Posted on by

Homes-for-Heroes

The Shanley Team at Inlanta Mortgage is pleased to announce their partnership with Homes for Heroes.

What is Homes for Heroes?

Homes for Heroes is a national network of the top mortgage lenders and real estate professionals who are prepared to give real savings to their community’s heroes when they buy or sell a home. Homes for Heroes’ mission is to provide extraordinary savings to heroes who provide extraordinary services to our nation and communities every day. As an approved lending affiliate with Homes for Heroes, the Shanley Team will be providing discounted lending services to heroes in the Central Indiana area.

Homes for Heroes Realtor Partners

The Shanley Team is also pleased to announce their partnership with more than 20 Central Indiana Homes for Heroes Realtors. Homes for Heroes Realtor partners will credit back 25 percent of their commissions to the Heroes whether they are buying or selling a home.

The program is close to Branch Manager Don Shanley’s heart, as his father served in the sheriff department and one of his father’s close friends, Master Trooper Michael Greene of the Indiana State Police, was killed in the line of duty. It’s important to Shanley and his team to offer this great program to local heroes. “When I was trying to create a program to give back I was approached with the National Homes for Heroes Program. After checking into the HFH Program I personally was in awe,” Shanley said. “It covered the hero categories of military, law enforcement, and fire that were on my list, but it added well deserving categories such as education, first responders, and medical personnel. Most of these are categories that are as well the true heroes of our communities and deserve these benefits!”

Derek & Stephanie Evelo of The Evelo Team at Keller Williams said, “I just want to be the first to express how excited the Evelo Team is to be partnered with Homes for Heroes! As soon as we heard about how the program will benefit our current/retired vets and local heroes like firefighters, police and medical professionals, we couldn’t wait to get on board! It’s our team’s way of ‘giving back’ to those who have so generously given of themselves, their lives and to their communities to help make the world a better place. And because our team’s core values are: making a difference & giving back to our community, we feel honored to be a part of this invaluable, special program to help those who have given tirelessly to our community.”

Warren Griffin of Re/Max Ability Plus said, “My dad was a World War II Veteran. I also have a daughter, two granddaughters and a son-in-law living at Pearl Harbor while serving with the Air Force at Hickam Air Force Base. I want to give back to all the people that help us every day of our life. It is the least I can do!”

Homes for Heroes Savings

Homes for Heroes seeks only the top Realtors® and Lenders who have proven track records and who want to give back to their communities by giving rebates and discounts to Heroes like you throughout the entire real estate transaction.

Homes for Heroes savings will vary per hero. The total amount Heroes save will depend on the final selling or buying price of their home.  Homes for Heroes Affiliates have agreed to the following rebates and discounts: discounted lender fees and a 25% credit on the gross brokerage commission.

Hales Corners Blood Drive

Blood Drive Hales Corners

Tracy Anderson, Branch Manager of Inlanta Mortgage’s Hales Corners branch, knows all too well how important donating blood is. Tracy herself relied on the generosity of others while experiencing complications during pregnancy many years ago. The complications afflicting her twin sons in utero required a substantial amount of blood. Without the blood donations of others, Tracy knows things would have been much different and maintains a commitment to giving back to this day.

Honoring that committment, Tracy organized a blood drive which was held today - the first for her Hales Corners branch office. According to the helpful and friendly American Red Cross of Southern Wisconsin team on location – today’s blood drive was deemed a success. Amy, Chris, Vicky, Daina, and John gently attended to nervous donators and even turned a few eager donators away (low blood counts, etc.).

A team from Fox 6 News stopped by to interview Tracy and follow her through the blood donation process. The segment is scheduled to air on January 15th in between 5 & 6 pm.

Tracy hopes to hold another blood drive at her location and increase the number of participants with each drive she holds.

Tracy Anderson is the branch manager at the Inanta Mortgage Hales Corners branch location at 5300 S. 108th Street Hales Corners, WI 53130.

 

Save a Life – Donate Blood

Blood Drive Hales Corners Wisconsin

Always a Need

The Red Cross was founded on the simple idea of neighbors helping neighbors in time of need. Most of us are aware of the role the Red Cross plays in times of disaster, but did you know they maintain a supply a blood available for distribution 24 hours a day, 7 days a week?

Our donations of blood, which most of us have to spare, ensures there is enough blood on the shelf when needed. Our blood donations save lives. In fact, you can help save more than one life with just one donation.

Inlanta “Mo”gage Raising Funds for Movember

 Movember Moustaches Inlanta Mortgage

Movember is changing the face of men’s health. References to Movember have been everywhere this past month, but in case you don’t know what Movember is – here you go:

What is Movember?

Movember is the month formerly known as November. The purpose of Movember is to encourage men to grow moustaches to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues – specifically prostate and testicular cancer. Female supporters are referred to as Mo Sistas and men are referred to as Mo Bros. This may explain why so many people you know have been sporting moustaches over the past month.

Raising Awareness & Funds

Inlanta Mortgage’s New Hampshire branches are supporting Movember this year and and have dubbed themselves the “Mo”gage team. You can still donate to the “Mo”gage team by visiting them here. Movember wraps up Friday, November 30th. All donations are greatly appreciated.

One of the team’s members, Senior Loan Officer John Dahlinger, joined the movement because the cause is close to his heart.

“I decided to grow a mustache for Movember to raise money to help fight prostate and testicular cancer. I lost my father to cancer and now take part in many cancer walks, awareness and drives,” Dahlinger said.

For more information on the programs Movember funds visit the following websites:
