Homes under $500K are in demand
Add to the mix that more sellers have pulled listings from the market in the past two years, and it’s left the less than $500,000 market segment in Orange County low in supply and higher in demand — a reversal from the norm for the rest of the housing market.

Real Estate Matters
I am current on the loan, but I’m borrowing on credit cards to pay my bills. I tried the loan modification process, which went from July 2010 through March 2011, only to be denied. I also tried to see about refinancing but I am so upside down with this loan that I would have to come up with about $60,000, which I don’t have.
