Very nice 2 bedroom, 1 bath condo I saw yesterday in South San Jose. Bank owned and very well priced at $157,500. Compared to many bank owned properties, this one is clean and well-kept. There are even some upgrades including tile floors in the kitchen and bathroom and wood flooring in the living room. Upstairs unit with a private balcony. Located at Monterey and Capitol Expressway. Great first time home buyer home or perfect for a rental. This just came on the market and is priced to move. Let me show you it today.

Very beautiful BANK OWNED home in Campbell. You will fall in love instantly. This 4 bedroom 3 bath is fully lined with hardwood floor, granite countertops in kitchen, nicely landscaped in both front and back yard. Move in ready. Please come and see it, you will not regret it.

Loan Modification

There are attorney groups available in this market that are doing very good work in loan modification. This may be the best solution for those who want to refinance but cannot due to low FICO scores or reduced equity in their homes. We have seen results such as 7% fixed rate 30 year loan modified to 4.0% or lower for the life of the loan! Some results are better, some are not as great, but a good percentage reduce rates and payments to make the borrower have an easier payment. Principle reductions are extremely rare. So if you want to review or improve your situation, let us know, we can send you the right way.

Home Buyer Seminar-Thur, Oct 16th

Topic: How to Buy In This Current Market

The current economic conditions create a lot of confusion for many people, especially those who have been thinking about buying a house, whether it's 1st-time homebuyers or someone needing to move up.
- “Should I buy now? Will the housing prices go down even more?”
- “Should I wait for mortgage rates to go down a bit?”
- “I see the current crisis as an opportunity, how do I get in as a 1st time home buyers now? Can I even qualify without much downpayment?”
- “I'm thinking about buying a bigger home, how can I buy before selling my existing house?”
- “What are some of the strategies that I can use to take advantage of the current economic situation?”

These are common questions that I get asked all the time. If you find yourself asking the same questions, then come and invest 2 hours of your time to get educated. The truth is that the answer to all these questions is "it depends". But you need to know "it depends on WHAT?"

At Opes Advisors, we help clients navigate through the home buying maze by integrating debt management strategies with overall long term financial planning. The real question you should yourself is "How does buying a house affect my short-term and long-term financial planning?”

Event details:
6:45pm - 7:00pm Registration & Networking
7:00pm - 8:00pm Presentation
8:00pm - 8:30pm Q & A
