If you are a first time home buyer earning between $11,600 – 58,500 (depending on your household size – i.e. household with two parents and one child or roommate is a 3 person household, and the maximum allowable income right now would be $39,850 for the entire household), did you know there is a program available that offers RIGHT NOW, TODAY eligible first time home buyers up to $15,000 to help them buy a home in the City of Medford Oregon? No waiting, no requirement the home is a foreclosure, as the Neighborhood Stabilization Program requires. So, how might this work?   A family purchased a home in July using the City of Medford First Time Buyer Assistance program. They received a gift from family for the minimum 3.5% down payment on the FHA loan program they chose for their first mor...

Affordability indices are at amazing levels, with homebuyers finding deals we haven’t seen in generations here in the Rogue Valley. One of the deals is a recently released Neighborhood Stabilization Program, up to $50,000 in funds that can be used to match/make down payment, pay closing costs AND repairs on a foreclosure home here in Medford Oregon. Do you think FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS in a zero interest “silent second” with no monthly payments might help YOU buy a home and keep your payments nice and low?   Per Krista Bolf, 2009 Rogue Valley Realtor of the Year, not long ago there were roughly 75 foreclosure homes for sale in the Rogue Valley for sale around $100,000. Now, there are around 25.   What are you waiting for Rogue Valley Home Buyers?!?!?! Call today and see how YOU may be on...

Would you like to find out how you may use the City of Medford Oregon’s first time home buyer program? Are you a first time home buyer who earns less than 80% of the area median household income? Have you decided the time has come for you to purchase your own home instead of renting someone else’s? Have you been able to set aside $1,000 to do this with? Are you looking to buy in Medford? If your answer is “yes” to these questions, it’s pretty likely you are eligible for the City of Medford Oregon’s First Time Buyer Down Payment Assistance Program.   The City of Medford First Time Home Buyer Program is a “silent second” mortgage, meaning it has zero interest and no monthly payments, just sitting there until you sell, refinance or move out of this home. This helps eligible first time hom...

Medford, OR - $8,000 Tax Credit - Senate Majority leader Henry Reed spoke to reporters today in Nevada about Congress extending the $8,000 tax credit for first time homebuyers.  If this happens it will be good for  the economy since  first time home buyers are potentially a large source of business for our industry.

Have You Been To The Wharf In Medford Oregon? No, not the wharf as in at the ocean shore. "The Wharf Fresh Seafood Market and Eatery", that wonderfully unpretentious seafood restaurant/market in West Medford?   We braved the "Fish Friday" crowd this warm Summer evening, and finally got over to The Wharf, a "hole in the wall" seafood restaurant that has been highly recommended to us by family and friends. Although my husband has a voracious seafood appetite, our youngest and I are tried and true steak and potato folk. But, I do enjoy trying different foods - even if our youngest would be content eating the same handful of favorites day after day!   The Wharf in West Medford has the perfect menu for a family like ours. For obvious reasons, the menu has a great variety of fish and seafood ...

Here comes one of our favorite local Springtime events here in the Rogue Valley! It's Pear Blossom Parade and Run time! Time to park the car and hike the few blocks over to our favorite spot on Central Avenue to see the parade, than walk over to Alba Park to see what we can find at the booths at the street fair. It's a great way to run in to familiar faces and have a fun time. And this year, we get to just enjoy it, not having the drop off and pickup duties we've had in years past with children in the parade. Look for me, the one who is parked in the best viewing spot with no intention of getting up for the 2 1/2 hours the parade will run.   Pear Blossom RunSaturday, April 11, 20097:00am 5K Run, 7:45am Mayor's Award,8:00am 1 Mile Mayor's Cup, 8:35am 10 Mile Run,8:40am 2 Mile Run/Walkwww...

We have a favorite restaurant in Downtown Medford where we know we will experience some unique and amazing flavors not only in their delicious Tapas, but in their drinks. Have you been to Element's Tapas Bar & Lounge in Downtown Medford? We have, frequently, and are headed back that way Monday February 9th to enjoy their Paella Party! This will be the first Element's Paella Party we've attended, and we're really looking forward to it. We're a little troubled, though... which of our favorite Southern Oregon wines will we bring with us?   See you out there! Karen Cooper - OR/CA Mortgage Consultant - www.Quality4Loans.com

Last weekend, my husband and I recently tried a new Thai restaurant, but it wasn't to our tastes. Do you ever get your taste buds set for a specific restaurant's flavors and cooking styles and then forever compare the dishes you try from other restaurants to your favorite one? I managed to break the mold, though, when it came to my favorite Thai foods. Thai Thani's in Redondo Beach California used to be the Thai restaurant all others were compared to, and most really didn't bring the same sense of satisfaction. But, thank goodness, we found Bambu in Medford who no longer has me longing for a restaurant that is 800 miles away! I discovered Thai Thani in 1984, and they are still there after all these years! Repost from 7/23/2008: These big city transplants were thrilled to find out about ...

On special occasions, and sometimes just because we love the atmosphere so much, you'll find us dining at Shoji's in Medford Oregon. Shoji's is a Japanese Teppanyaki style dining experience like no other I have experienced - and this restaurant style is one my family chooses frequently. For my fellow California transplants, it is like Benihana's- only with flinging egg shells and a TON of rice! The Early Bird Special is until 6PM every day, which we've taken advantage of many times, not only getting us in before the crowds and seated quickly, but we double the meat portion.  If we're not feeling glutinous, we go home with two-three more meals each! The chef's are a lot of fun, trying their jokes out on us. Good food, good conversation and good fun! If you haven't been to Shoji's, check ...
