In 1944 the government passed the GI Bill of Rights and part of that legislation was the VA Loan Guaranty Program Even in 1944 the government recognized the value of homeownership and they wanted to reward veterans and uniformed service members for their service to our country.

If you’re interested in refinancing a VA home loan in California, I have good news! As of February 2012, Veteran California homeowners who owe more than their home is worth can take advantage of today’s low interest rates through a new program.

This means that even though home values have dropped, refinancing a VA home loan in California is still a possibility. If you currently have a VA home loan, you’re eligible to refinance under this program, which could drastically lower your payments. And with express funding, you could be completely finished refinancing a VA home loan in California in as little...

Sometimes I just don’t understand it! How is it that some people are able to stay in this business with practices that could be considered suspect at best? I have an investor client who is looking to purchase a few properties in a specific development in Oceanside, CA. It’s a great neighborhood that generates substantial cash flow as well as long-term appreciation potential. There has been a great deal of sales activity in the past 6 months within this development, but currently the listings are slim. One of the listings seems like a perfect opportunity for an investor like my client. I tend to contact the LA prior to previewing a property to confirm that the showing instructions are still current (we all know that mls info isn’t always updated appropriately). It has been two days and I...
