Lorraine has earned the prestigious Certified Distressed Property Expert designation (CDPE), having completed extensive training in foreclosure avoidance and short sales. Short sales allow the cash-strapped seller to repay the mortgage at the price that the home sells for, even though it is lower than what is owed on the property.  With plummeting property values, this can save many people from foreclosure and even bankruptcy.  More and more lenders are willing to consider short sales because they are much less costly than foreclosures.  If you are in this situation, please give Lorraine a call at (805) 901-8805 and let's discuss the possibilities.

How may I help you with your real estate needs? 

What type of Ventura County real estate are you looking for? Search everything the web has to offer, RIGHT HERE! That includes searching the MLS (multiple listing service) to find the newest condos, houses, townhomes, vacant land and mobile homes that come up for sale. I give you that information here for free. 

Do you need local Ventura County real estate information? Looking for houses, condos, townhomes, mobile homes, raw land? I've summarized much of what is important about the Ventura County real estate market in this site.  I am here for both buyers and sellers. 

Do you need expert advice? No web site, large or small, can take the place of a top Realtor. Talking one on one is the best way to get information. This site is filled with ways that you can contact me for one on one expert help and advice. That's my job.

Ventura County is broken into many cities-which include Simi Valley, Moorpark, Thousand Oaks, Camarillo, Oxnard, Port Hueneme, Ventura, Santa Paula, Fillmore, Piru, Oak View and Ojai. Of these cities there are two different MLS Boards.  I am associated with each of these boards to get the highest amount of Realtors throughout Ventura County looking at your listing.  

For buyers I specialize in Camarillo, Oxnard, Port Hueneme, Ventura, Santa Paula, Fillmore, Oak View and Ojai areas. By limiting the area I cover as a Realtor it helps me to be more knowledgeable of these places. I specialize in Houses, Condos, Townhomes, and Mobile Homes (Manufactured Homes).
  

When you are ready to sell, together I will sell your home, for as much as the market will bear, and as quickly as possible.  

If you are looking to buy a home in the Ventura County area I will send you an e-mail with all the latest listings. So when that great house comes up that is just right for you, I can be one of the first to make an offer.
