I am posting this for a friend.  Please do not respond to this account; there
is a phone number at the end of this.

  Hi. I am planning to move to the Palo Alto/Menlo Park area in 
  September, and I am looking for a roommate (or two?) with whom to rent a 
  house.

  About me:
   -  female
   -  age 31, straight    
   -  computer professional
   -  non-smoker, non-drinker/drugs (well, an occasional glass of red wine...)
   -  semi-vegetarian
   -  meditator
   -  easy-going, positive outlook
   -  sense of humor
   -  neat (but not anal-retentive about it)
   -  like all types of music (though not too fond of country music)
   -  hobbies include: oil painting, dance, hiking, running, philosophy

  About you:
   -  preferably female (would consider male)
   -  30+
   -  non-smoker, no heavy drinking/drugs 
   -  neat (but not anal-retentive about it) 
   -  sense of humor
   -  easy-going, positive outlook
   -  like animals (especially dogs...see below)

  I should mention that I have a dog.  She's  6-months old, friendly, 
  housebroken, small- to medium-sized, and a joy to be around.  She
  loves people and especially other dogs.  In fact, it would be great
  if you had a friendly dog (cat?) so they could be buddies.  I would 
  like to find a house with a backyard, naturally.
 
  I can afford up to $600/month, but it would be nice to spend less, if
  possible.  I am giving notice to my present landlord on either August 1
  or August 15, so I will need to move by September 1 or September 15.

  Give me a call if you'd like to talk!

    Lisa  (415) 453-4770  (leave a message if I'm not there; I'll call
                           you back as soon as possible)

an old Porsche from a friend near Albuquerque, and cannot afford to
have it professionally shipped all the way to San Francisco ($700+!)

Instead, I want to find someone to hitch a tow-bar or flatbed to.
I'll pay something decent (a couple of tanks of gas?) for the

To any homeowner guru:

1. What does the term "No Negative" mean?

2. What is the purchase price and salary limit for the MCC program?
   I hear there will be some changes starting Aug 1.

3. Recommend a place with good rates in the bay area or santa cruz area?

4. Is the Bank of America Neighborhood awarness program worth the extra
   added percentage rate (this program pays most of your non-reocurring
   closing cost).

Thanks!

Just a short plug for my mortgage broker.

He's been very nice to work with - I've been working with him
since January to refinance my house.  I've had to wait for my appraisal
to come up in value - Bill's arranged estimates of my house's value with
no commitment to make sure I didn't waste money on an appraisal which
would be too low for me to use.  Things are working out great now: got
a 30 year fixed/8 percent for 2 points.  Bill has always been helpful
and has never been pushy.

For what it's worth, we just re-financed (with AmeriMac Cal-West
Financial in Campbell - Robert Agorastos was our loan officer) on a
5/30 with no points no fees and got 7.65%.  A straight 15 or 30 year
fixed would have been a lower rate but with points and/or fees traded
off against the loan rate.  Since we don't expect to be in the house
more than another five years, going with a no points/no fees fixed
rate, due in five loan made sense for us. It took us less than a month
from start to finish, but we didn't have to wait until the appraisal
value went up.  Our mortgage payments have dropped ~$400/month.

In my area, it is not at all clear what this means...list prices frequently
drop over a period of time, so are you talking about the original list price,
or the list price at the time of sale?  Our original list prices was about
10% more than the final sale price, but the list price at the time of
the sale was only 5% more than the list price.

The other thing is that if you are asking so that you have some idea of
what to offer, I think that you should be looking at the SALE prices of
comparable properties to the ones that you are considering.  If you are
on the selling end, then in our market pricing from 5-10% above where you
need to end up is the usual.

Firstly thanks to all those who replied to my add looking for temporary
accomodation. Now I'm look for a more permanant home for my family who
are due to decend on me in late August or Early September.
What I'm looking for is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house in a reasonably good
school district. I've got 3 boys aged 3, 5 & 7 for my sins :-)
The house should have the usual facilities and be reasonably close
to shopping & school. I don't mind having a 'pig of a journey' to work
so route access is not a problem.

I can be reached at the following:
Phone: (408) 436 6615 (work)
       (408) 263 4998 (home, dont be put off by the answer machine,
                             Mario is the kind soul who's house I'm
                             sharing at the moment)

Thanks in anticipation!
