Eastvale community of Corona on the hunt for vandals As surprising as it may sound to the residents of our Eastvale area of Corona, there have been several automobile break-ins in past weeks.  The work appears to be that of the same person or persons and occurs in the early pre-dawn hours. If you live in Eastvale, keep your eyes and ears open and let the authorities know if you have any pertinent regarding these incidents. Spread the word. Tweet about this!

Many agents purport to be experts in their field, buy high rankings in the search engines, or pay for leads or ads to encourage you to call them.  DON'T BE FOOLED.  Before you hire the agent you're speaking with, ask them to show you the recent successes they've had in assisting other clients. May agents will tell you they're the best of the best, but only close 1 deal every 6 months.   Ask them to provide you with recent transaction dates and phone numbers for those clients.  Do a bit of follow-up to make sure you're getting what is advertised, ESPECIALLY WHEN HIRING AN AGENT TO NEGOTIATE YOUR SHORT SALE. Good luck. Spread the word. Tweet about this! Cameron Novak OC Short Sale Agents The Homefinding CenterTM Serving Yorba Linda, California 951-212-7479 The Homefinding Center on Faceb... 05/03/2010

Here's a customer story about one womans reason for a reverse mortgage. I met with a young senior last week, (only 65) who completed her reverse mortgage counseling and will be able to utilize the reverse mortgage to quit her part-time job, payoff her mortgage AND spend more time with her 80+ year old mother while she still has her. Divorced, with no children, she will use the adjustable rate reverse mortgage and access a little over $2200.00 in cash to do some home repairs.   She will also payoff her existing mortgage, saving over $500 per month in cash flow, establish a line of credit of over $52,000 AND receive $500.00 per month in tax free reverse mortgage tenure payments for the rest of her life as long as she lives in the home.  This will increase her cash flow by $1,000 per month... 04/26/2010

In addition, federal funding is being set aside for the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) to offer new loans to homeowners whose outstanding mortgage debt is up to 115 percent of the home's value.
