There's no place like HOME!

Those of us who live in Ventura and travel away from Ventura know a sinple truth: There is no place like home! I traveled to the Baltimore area this week: they have 100 degree weather, 100% plus humitity, thunder and lightening storms, it's muggy (but the area is very green - that is not like Ventura!). It is beautiful in Baltimore, but very hot and very muggy. There truely is no place like Ventura!

Manufactured Homes alternative to Stick-built homes.

Hi Ventura! My name is Lorraine and I sell manufactured homes and mobile homes. They are a good alternative to stick-built homes in Ventura since they are still affordable IF you have at least a 5% down payment. They look very much like a stick-built home now - vaulted ceilings, jacuzzi tubs, islands in the kitchens, all the bells and whistles. But the older ones still look like mobile homes (unless someone has fixed it up).

Can't afford a stick-built home but have $20,000 down? I'll bet I can get you into a mobile home or a manufactured home. Look at my web site - LorraineBurns.com. It talks about the mobile home parks in Ventura County. If you have questions, shoot me an email at Lorraine@LorraineBurns.com.

Fed Cuts Discount Rate

The Fed cut the discount rate by half a point to 5.75%, declaring "downside risks" to the economy have increased. Ya think?

However, the central bank did not change its target for the federal funds rate, which has remained at 5.25 percent for over a year. Fox news reports, "Many strategists believes the market won't settle down until the Fed lowers the fed funds rate — the rate banks charge each other on overnight loans. The discount rate only covers loans the Fed makes to banks."

Whatcha think Benny?
