About Us

Buy a Home | Take me home
buy a home

Maya Angelou once wrote that “the ache for home lives in all of us” and truer words may never have been spoken. We all ache for a sense of belonging, of connection, of permanence, and so much of that begins with the roof over our heads. And even beyond that, owning a home can mean so much more for generations to come.

In 2019, the US Federal Reserve issued a report stating that homeowners had a median net worth of $255,000. Renters, on the other hand, had a median net worth of $6,300 and the numbers have not changed much since then. This study is reprised every four years, and a new report will be released in late 2023…..with an even larger anticipated separation between home owners and renters.

This staggering difference in wealth represents an enormous generational advantage — responsible home ownership helps break the chains of poverty and significantly increases the odds that future generations will enjoy better opportunities. Put simply, a person’s home is usually their largest financial asset, the benefits of which are often passed on to the next generation. This largely happens through two avenues of generational wealth, both the literal assets that can be passed down and the knowledge that comes from the creation of those assets.

Take Me Home is all about helping people achieve this kind of permanence, through a combination of education, financial resources and support as they pursue the dream of home ownership. Buy a home

How we got started

As real estate professionals, both Patrick and Stacey have seen the effect home ownership can have on all avenues of life. It’s amazing how often people come to us saying they can’t even imagine what it will take to buy a home, only to learn that they can qualify right away. Others come to us needing to do some homework, and we’ve gladly taken the time to walk that road with them. Despite that, we’ve both always felt we can do so much more more people. This organization represents our dream and we are so grateful that we have the opportunity to see others reach their own dreams of home ownership. Stacey has been a real estate agent, trainer and coach for more than a decade, with licenses in Maine, Georgia and New Hampshire. Her team works in all three states and takes great pride in working with clients no matter their budget or goals. Patrick has been a mortgage loan consultant for seven years and is an educator at heart. He left a successful career in corporate America to pursue his passion for helping people from all walks of life make home ownership a reality. He is the Branch Manager for Annie Mac Home Mortgage and is licensed in six different states.
