VA LOANS:  FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS A VA loan is one of the best loan options in today’s market.  The loans are guaranteed by the Veterans Administration, and solidly backed by the federal government.  Once you have earned your VA benefit (current service, past service, surviving spouse), the benefits are yours for life.  There is no downpayment required, no private mortgage insurance and the loan payments are fixed and all-inclusive (principal, interest, taxes, home insurance), so you can rest assured that your payments won’t change and your taxes and insurance will be paid on time. The advantages to obtaining a VA loan are real.  VA loans have lower monthly payments (compared to FHA with MI and some conventional loan products), easier qualification guidelines and the ability to purchase...

Why Buyers, Sellers, Landlords Want Our Blog to Get Found: BEST DEALS When buyers, sellers and landlords are looking for a local real estate company to help them buy, sell or rent out their home, they are recognizing that the real estate agent's web of connections matters to get them the "best deal."  By the end of this post, I hope to explain that you will get your best deal by using a local, full-time, connected agent whose website and blog posts get found. What is the "Best Deal"? For buyers, the best deal is buying a home at a payment they can afford.  In a seller's market, where the number of buyers is high, and sellers are receiving multiple offers, the "best deal" might just be getting your offer accepted instead of the other two, four, ten or twenty buyers who offered!  Are you ...

What Is a Military Clause in a Lease for a Rental Home? A "military clause" in a lease for a rental home is a clause that essentially says, "If the tenant receives military PCS orders, the tenant is not breaking the lease to give 30 days' notice to the landlord."  You'll want to check with your local property manager regarding language typically used in your town and regarding the typical number of days' notice.  Near Camp Pendleton, you can call Frank Delzompo, my husband and broker-owner of Sand to Sea Properties, at 951-326-7330 for the most up-to-date information on wording of the clause and related details. Let's break this down a little more: PCS orders are "Permanent Change of Station" orders.  These orders are issued by the US military to service members for the military member ...

Busy people are always looking for shortcuts in food preparation so they can reduce the time spent in the kitchen.  Here are some timesaving methods that will help you in food preparation and planning future meals. Slice mushrooms quickly and evenly by using an egg slicer. Cut cheese and meats more easily by placing them in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes to firm them up before slicing. Hard-boiled eggs will keep for about one week refrigerated so do several at one time so they’re ready for a variety of dishes and salads. For easier potato peeling, cut a single thin strip around each potato before boiling.  After cooking the potatoes, insert a fork at the peeled strip and peel back the two sections of skin. It also helps if your kitchen is well organized with everything in its place wi...

That means you both must agree on the type of house you want, shop for the house together, make the decisions together, and sign the documents together.  You are both legally responsible for paying the mortgage loan and taking care of the house.  If you are buying the house with someone else, for example, your sister or brother is helping you qualify for the loan, then you all are equally responsible.  If your parents are giving you money for the down payment, then they probably will want to help you select the best house possible, so get them involved in the process early, http://tinyurl.com/cs4724e.What is great about America?

San Onofre Nuclear Generating Stationin San Diego County I've driven from San Diego to Los Angeles many times and never paid much attention to nuclear power plants. March 11, 2011, changed that. Of course, that was the date when the 9.0 earthquake and resulting tsunami devastated northern Japan, including the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant. At about the halfway point between San Diego and Los Angeles is the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station:   San Onofre is at the northwest corner of San Diego County and is surrounded by Camp Pendleton and San Onofre State Park. Interstate 5 passes right by, carrying tens of thousands of cars each day, and perhaps a few hundred thousand cars on weekend days when Los Angelenos come to San Diego and Tijuana to get away from the L.A. smog.

For those of you who participated in the Bulldog Bike race this weekend, I salute you! The Bulldog Bike race is part of the MARSOC Hardcore race series, which includes 3 mud runs, a half-marathon, bike races, a duathlon, and a triathlon. Make no mistake, “hardcore” is definitely the key word here. In all, there are ten events that make up this intense series of races that is both fun and challenging. At the end of the year, points from each race are tallied up and an overall winner is announced. This past Saturday morning, registration began at 7:30am at the Las Pulgas parade deck with anticipation for a prompt 8:30am start. The race consisted of 26 miles of rolling hills and an extremely steep 1 mile long climb at mile 13. In keeping with Camp Pendleton tradition, rain began to pour d...
