Free Mortgage Insurance Available through 2010

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

Many don’t realize that they can receive a free mortgage insurance policy if they purchase their home through a California licensed Realtor through the end of 2010.  This program will be in effect through the end of the year or until funds are exhausted.  There was $1,420,000 allocated to the program.  Under this program, first time home buyers who lose their jobs due to layoffs may be eligible to receive up to $1,500 per month, for up to six months, to help make their mortgage payments.  A qualified co-buyer can also participate in the program and receive a monthly benefit of $750 per month for up to six months.  To apply for the program you must request an application for the H.A.F. Mortgage Protection Program from your Realtor.

A Recession is a Terrible Thing to Waste!

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Many have lost jobs and their homes during this recession and our hearts go out to them and would not want to minimize their pain and suffering in any way.  We must not lose sight, however, of the other side of this current situation.  The opportunities that are here today that we thought were not possible a couple of years ago, are here for those who can see the benefit of taking action.

Most millionaires have been and, I believe still are being made, during a recession.  Current home prices are low and interest rates are also at record low….although not for long according to my sources.  Contrary to some myths that are circulating, mortgage loans are not only available, but are relatively easy to get with 3 ½ percent down payment and sometimes even 100% financing. 

It’s so easy to get on the bandwagon of negativity and doom and gloom and lose hope during this amazing period of opportunity.  A few, however, will recognize the incredible opportunity that could change their financial future in a dramatically beneficial way.

So, before we succumb to the sometimes loud and overwhelming message that we hear everyday that times are bad, why not look closely for the nugget that may be just waiting for you to pick up?

The Signature Properties Difference

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

A Spirit of Independence
In creating Signature Properties, the Central Coast’s premier independent real estate and property management company, Nancy embraced the spirit of independence. She did so not only in terms of not being affiliated with any of the large, corporate-owned real estate companies, but also in the unique culture and spirit of autonomy that defines the Signature Properties philosophy. Together with her husband and company co-owner, Larry, Nancy strongly believes that no two people are the same, and that’s why each client must be treated accordingly. There are no cookie cutters to found here.

“Some people only see black and white”, Nancy says. “I’ve always believed that life is shades of gray. Everybody has their own story, different situations, unique goals. It’s our job to find out what those things and then develop a plan of action to help them achieve them”.

A Wealth of Experience
Nancy began here real estate career in 1978, and since that time, she has excelled both in sales and property management. For many years, she worked under the banner of other companies, but soon found that her actions and ultimately, her potential, were limited in that scenario. That’s why Nancy and Larry empowered their agents and associates to do business as they see fit. The team of professionals at Signature Properties is comprised of knowledgeable experts who share Nancy and Larry’s philosophy and cherish the freedom they possess within their careers. The result is the ability to tailor their service to each client and achieve a higher level of satisfaction for both the client and themselves.

Full Service from Start to Finish
The associates at Signature Properties don’t believe in doing things halfway. That’s why, whether you’re buying or selling a home or taking advantage of Signature’s outstanding property management services, you can trust them to take care of all the details and make the entire process as smooth as possible. That’s the Signature way. “We do our homework up front”, Nancy says. “We always try to solve problems before they become problems”. For property management clients, that means finding a higher quality of tenant and going out of their way to ensure the satisfaction of both the tenant and the property owner.

High Standards, Distinctive Results
Throughout her career, Nancy Puder has always held herself to a higher standard. Today, those standards are reflected every time you see a Signature Properties sign in front of a home. That’s because Signature Properties sign in front of a home. That’s because Signature Properties doesn’t put its name on just any property; it has to be held to a certain standard of excellence. The same goes for each associate and staff member throughout the company. The result is a reputation for excellence in both the properties they represent and the level of service they provide.
