Homeowners in Napa can breathe a sigh of relief because Congress has extended the Debt Relief Forgiveness Act until the end of 2013.  But please know that if you are considering a short sale, you need to act soon.  It is STILL taking banks several months to approve short sales.

Napa Real Estate--Eight Eco-Friendly Home Tips Make
Going Green Easy
Incorporating eco-friendly measures in homes has moved beyond installing energy efficient appliances and swapping out incandescent light bulbs for compact fluorescents - going green is giving home sellers a competitive advantage. With home builders incorporating energy saving features into new homes, it's no wonder real estate professionals say more and more home buyers are asking about "green homes." In the end, small changes to a home can help the environment and help a property stand out among the competition.

NAPA REAL ESTATE-HOMES FOR SALE--SIX INEXPENSIVE RENOVATIONS THAT CAN INCREASE A HOME'S VALUE AND APPEAL TO BUYERS
Home value is top of mind for many homeowners.  Renovations and remodeling can play a critical role in both increasing the value of a home and ensuring that it stands out to potential buyers. 
At a time when most consumers are looking to do more with less, few homeowners may be ready to commit the thousands of dollars it can take to fully redo even a single room.  I suggest the following six affordable home improvements for potentially increasing the overall value of a home:

Napa Real Estate--The Value of a Pre-Approval
If you're thinking about buying a home, a pre-approval is a fast and simple way to make your home buying experience easier from start to finish.
Pre-approval means you get an approval for a mortgage loan before you make an offer on a home or even find a home you want. (This is in contrast to pre-qualification - a preliminary evaluation of your financial status that does not include a commitment to giving you a loan.) We even put our commitment to the loan in writing, in a pre-approval letter. That means you'll have … (0 comments)

NAPA REAL ESTATE-WHAT ARE CLOSING COSTS?
Closing on the purchase of your new home, also known as "settlement," involves a good deal of coordination. Costs and fees are paid at closing to cover many of the elements that accompany the purchase.
All closing costs are outlined in the Good Faith Estimate (GFE) you receive - a written list of the approximate closing costs associated with your transaction, including charges from us, the local closing agent and other third parties. Closing costs may be added to the amount of your mortgage loan, and a seller may sometimes cover closing costs you would … (0 comments)

NAPA HOMES FOR SALE--DO I NEED MY OWN AGENT WHEN BUYING NEW CONSTRUCTION?
A common misconception when purchasing new construction is that you don't need an agent.
•·          That friendly and helpful salesperson works for and represents the builder's interest and the builder's interest only. Shouldn't you have independent representation?
 
•·          An agent can give you objective professional advice and insight during all phases of the process, such as contract, construction, walkthrough, and closing.
 
•·          An agent is your exclusive advocate and will help you understand your contract and obligations including when to schedule construction inspections.

CALIFORNIA NURSES HISTORICALLY INFLUENCE STATE ELECTIONS-NAPA REAL ESTATE
Having been previously employed as an RN, I have seen firsthand the impact that California Nurses can have in an election year or in a heated political debate.  Just ask Arnold how strong nurses can be when it comes to defending their ability to serve their patients.   In my career as an RN, I was both a part of CNA as well as an exempt employee.  Union member or not, nurses are a strong force to change the political landscape of our state.
