Pleasanton, Dublin and livermore Home Loan PMI Change
By · February 13, 2008 · CommentsHome buyers will no longer get mortgage insurance in Pleasanton, Dublin or Livermore unless they put 10% down on the purchase of a home.
Alameda County is on the list of declining areas and the mortgage insurance giant PMI will no longer insure 95% or 100% financing. There is another company still providing coverage, but that may change soon.
Even with a good down payment you will need a very good credit score. Do everything you can to get your credit score up to 700.
If you want to get your credit cleared up just leave a comment below with your phone number. Comments are not posted until I check them. Anyone leaving a request for clean-up will not be published.

Vote No On California Propositions 93, 94, 95, 96 & 97
By · February 3, 2008 · CommentsI’m a supporter of tribal gaming, but not on this level. It will hurt all California communities; Pleasanton, Dublin and Livermore home owners and rents will not see a benefit. Along with the gaming propositions Prop. 93 is just another way to take citizen government out of our hands.
We need to put money to work creating consumable goods, not gaming. Yes, a few jobs will be created, but there is no long term benefit to our work force. Spending on durable goods will increase work in California, and in turn create additional jobs state wide.
Prop 93 needs to be voted down, it only lets politicians pick your pocket longer. Maybe there should be a bill streamlining how our government works. Maybe we should cut the pay of all elected officials by one half. Then they could be put on a performance program by which they could earn more based on there performance. That performance would be voted on by the citizens.
