One of the nicest parks in Sunnyvale is Ortega park. It is situated in the center of a quiet, desirable neighborhood where there is no main road or traffic noise. Being next to Stocklmeir Elementary, it serves many kids and families during the week and mainly the weekends. The large grassy area is used for sports’ games throughout the year at all hours of day. Some people come from other places to play or enjoy this beautiful park. The tennis courts are also used daily and so is the recreation building. I am aggravated by the fact the an antenna that will serve
another city (Cupertino) will be put in our neighborhood near an elementary school in a park where so many kids spend many hours every day. How can we prevent it? What are the environmental effects of RF emissions? Are there long-term impacts of exposure to RF energy?

How did the leaders of our community allowed a commercial entity in a public place, is it greed? Is the city so broke that it is selling itself and the safety of it’s citizens?

Will there be an affect on the home prices in the area? How will it change Sunnyvale blossoming Real estate market?

My client won the house, competing with 3 other buyers. The seller was so happy. The offer was:”as is”, no contingencies, 3 weeks free rent back, great price, all that for the luxury to own home in Sunnyvale. My client shopped around for the best loan. First he was going with a mortgage broker who promised him the best 30 year fixed conforming loan he could get. Then he found a B of A lender who was willing to get him 5 year arm for 5% (with 1 point). What a deal! The mortgage broker could not match that rate and my client was going to do the loan with B of A. 2 days later the original mortgage broker found a 30 year fixed  for 5.25% with a 1 point buy down. They locked that rate which disappeared that afternoon. The B of A lender could not match that loan and the buyer, being a conservative borrower preferred the 30 year fixed.

A diligent broker has to be on top of things, check the rates a few times a day and be in touch with many lenders.
