Local Prudential operation buys Carter-Duffey Realtors

Prudential Kansas City Realty has purchased Carter-Duffey Realtors, adding 100 real estate agents to its roster and expanding its operations in the Northland.

The acquisition includes two offices formerly operated by Carter-Duffey in Liberty and Barry Road in Kansas City, and brings along 300 residential listings. Prudential Kansas City also will pick up 22 new-home subdivisions including Green Glades at the Masters, Drake’s Crossing and Blackberry.

“This is a unique opportunity for us to grow our business in the Northland where we previously had little presence,” David Cooper, president of Prudential Kansas City, said in a statement.

The management of the new offices will continue under brokers Joanna Williams in Liberty and Kristi Ferrara in Kansas City. The acquisition will expand Prudential Kansas City’s presence in the area to seven branch offices with more than 500 sales associates.

The firm is headquartered in Overland Park.

Free Financial Advice

Question:

BRB asks

Who do I talk to for financial advice that does not involve them trying to sell me something? We are 60 and 59, have a 200,000 annuity, are 60-70,000 credit card debt, have a house that is half paid for,own a condo in fl that is not paying for itself, have a good credit rating, not behind on anything, not facing foreclosure, wife on disability, husband still working, Want to pay off credit cards, but don't know how. Should we use part of annuity? I just want to know who to ask for help. Thanks

Answer:

It looks like you would be well served by a comprehensive financial plan which would address your concerns and give you a clear picture of where you are at financially. Financial advisors are paid in two different ways. Some receive commissions for the products they sell you. There are also fee only financial planners who work for you for a set fee and sell no products. In their case you know exactly how much it will cost you up front. It would also be preferable to use a financial planner who is a Certified Financial Planner.

Best Regards,
G. Douglas Dunham
