Firestorm 2007 Relief Package

With Fires sweeping across the San Diego area and thousands of families displaced by the loss of their homes, HouseRebate.com has reached out a hand to relieve some of the loss and assist San Diego real estate owners in returning to their normal lives. While worrying about the loss of all of their possessions, San Diego real estate owners are suffering from the added concerns of finding secure housing for their families. “My family and the families of the employees of HouseRebate.com live in this community. We are devastated to see the toll that the San Diego county fires have taken on the lives of the people around us. It is with this mission that everyone at HouseRebate.com gathered together to help those effected by the San Diego county fires,“ notes Brian Yui, founder and CEO of SanDiego.HouseRebate.com.

On Friday, HouseRebate mobilized efforts to reinforce San Diego real estate owners need to find secure homes for their families by presenting their Firestorm 2007 Relief package designed specifically for San Diego home owners affected by the San Diego county fires. The Firestorm 2007 Relief package outlines the intention of HouseRebate.com to rebate 50% of its commission to any San Diego county fire victims needing to purchase a replacement home through HouseRebate.com. The loss of a lifetime of possessions in a disaster such as the San Diego county fires is catastrophic enough that most people can not even contemplate the next step. “The overwhelming reality on the other side of Firestorm 2007 is that thousands of families will not have a secure place to start again. HouseRebate.com will step forward to aid those families with a rebate of up to rebate 50% of their commission. On the purchase of a $750,000 home, this could mean more than $11,250 for them to begin rebuild their lives and replace their possessions,” states Yui about the Firestorm 2007 Relief package.

In this innovative measure unmatched by any real estate company in the San Diego real estate market, HouseRebate.com is pushing forward to help survivors of Firestorm 2007 start to rebuild their lives in the wake of San Diego county fire disaster. By helping San Diego real estate owners in their pursuits of a safe place to call home, the Firestorm 2007 Relief package by HouseRebate.com will help Firestorm 2007 victims begin a normal life in their new San Diego homes.

Details:

If your home was destroyed or partially destroyed by the San Diego Firestorm 2007, HouseRebate.com will increase its rebate to 50% vs. the standard 33% to assist you with securing your new home in San Diego.

This rebate can be used to assist you in replacing your furniture, t.v.’s and household goods.

Just call us at 1-888-836-5675 and we will assist you in finding that replacement home as soon as possible.

Come on in and take your shoes off… Make yourself at home

This blog is dedicated to the area that I have called home since 1989…Point Loma/Ocean Beach, California…and everything that goes on here and how it is related to Real Estate.

While I have lived in other areas of San Diego, most notebly, North Park, Normal Heights, Hillcrest and University Heights…I have spent my time primarily at the beach.

I raised my kids here… they have been in the local pre-schools, afterschool programs, elementary, junior high and highschool. I walk on the beaches and swim in the water here. And, most of all I live in this community and watch it change and grow. I have seen lots of things change….

The new Starbucks and Trader Joes on Rosecrans, the new skate park, a brand new library in Point Loma, new condos and new businesses where military bases used to be, and of course the losses of a few local businesses over the years.

But one thing never changes….people love to be near the beach. And the people who live here are beach people. We are a tight community and it often feels like a small town out here on the Point.

If you are considering buying a home in Point Loma or Ocean Beach I am here to assit you. Asked questions will always be answered to the best of my knowledge. Please give your feedback…I am here to share my knowledge with each of you.

Thanks for visiting and come on back soon,

Carolyn B.
