Press Release Summary: Huntington Beach home prices are low and now is the time for
first time home buyers to buy a beautiful new home in Huntington Beach.

Press Release Body: Huntington Beach, California - February 27, 2008 - With the
price of homes reduced dramatically in the Huntington Beach real estate market, many
renters are beginning to think about purchasing a home now that their money can go
farther. Area real estate agents, such as seasoned Huntington Beach realtor Dee Dee
Sive have recognized this influx of first-time buyers into the market and are
working hard to help educate them on the dos and don'ts of home buying in today's
market.

"While its true that the Orange County real estate market is not fairing as well as
it had a few years ago, it is still a great time to buy a home," says Sive, who is
also a member of the Professional Standards Committee and a licensed mediator for
the Orange County Board of Realtors. "Huntington Beach home prices are at historic
lows and any buyer who is able to purchase property now will really be able to get
far more for their money then they could just a year ago. This is especially true
for first time buyers, who don't have to worry about selling a property in order to
invest in Huntington Beach real estate. And since most first-time buyers are not
sure about how to negotiate sales prices or even what to look for in a home, our
first-time buyer program helps to calm their fears and make the process of searching
for and buying a Huntington Beach home painless."

Sive's first-time buyer program offers buyers the opportunity to learn more about
the benefits of owning a home. From tax breaks to financial security, the program
helps first-time buyers understand how an investment in a home today can save them
thousands of dollars over their lifetime. The program also provides resources for
first-time buyers including information of special loan and down payment assistance
programs to help with the purchase of a new home. In addition, Sive's program
highlights the often, under-discussed financial
responsibilities associated with owning a home.

"It is my goal to make sure that every first-time buyer that purchases a Huntington
Beach home really understands the pros and cons of home ownership," says Sive. "By
fully educating buyers on the financial responsibilities of owning a home, we can
help to ensure that our buyers make the smartest decisions for their future. Not
only do I help them understand which programs are available to assist them finically
with their purchase, but I also make sure they understand the true cost of home
maintenance and home ownership."
