Los Angeles Veterans Housing Summit - Helping Veterans and Active Duty Members Buy Homes

0
0
The Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals (VAREP.net), a nonprofit organization that educates veterans and active service members about homeownership, will be hosting a free VA Housing Summit in Los Angeles on Saturday, October 6, 2018 from 10:00AM to 2:00 PM at the Veterans Auditorium, 4117 Overland Ave. • Culver City, California 90230

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) September 10, 2018

Huge Overlooked Market

Home sellers in Los Angeles are missing out on a huge market because of their misconceptions of veterans and active duty members.

Los Angeles county has one of the largest veteran populations in the US – roughly 381 thousand veterans not including active-duty members, retirees, and their families – yet most home sellers are overlooking them, missing out on this massive market.

Civilian home sellers aren’t marketing their homes to this large consumer audience because they believe incorrectly that it’s more difficult to get approved for a VA Loan. They also wrongly believe the VA appraisal process is more difficult than conventional home appraisal process.

However, the VA appraisal process – specifically the Minimum Property Requirements that sellers must meet – are much more lenient for VA mortgages than conventional mortgages. In addition, VA loans close in only 30 to 45 days, which is typically three days sooner than a standard FHA loan.

Veterans & Service Members Missing Out

But it’s not just home sellers that are missing out. Veteran and active duty members right here in Los Angeles are also missing out on government assisted financial programs that can help them buy a home for less than they’re paying in rent.

For example, the state of California offers several assistance programs that help veterans, active duty members and lower income families – but the public rarely hears about them.

The Golden State Finance Authority Platinum Program (GSFA Platinum) is designed to increase homeownership opportunities for low-to-moderate income individuals and families in California. VA home buyers can receive up to 4.00% of the homes purchase price for down payment and closing cost assistance. This loan program is a forgivable second that matures in only three years.

In addition, the Veterans Administration can provide even more assistance through lower interest rates and no down payment for active and retired military but too often veterans and active duty members aren’t educated on these financial programs that they earned through their honorable service.

Los Angeles VA home loans max out at $679,650 for one unit and $1,307,175 for four units – more than most other counties in the US.

Free VA Housing Summit in Los Angeles County

The Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals (VAREP.net), a nonprofit organization that educates veterans and active service members about homeownership, will be hosting a free VA Housing Summit in Los Angeles on Saturday, October 6, 2018 from 10:00AM to 2:00 PM at the Veterans Auditorium, 4117 Overland Ave. • Culver City, California 90230. Pre-register for the event at http://www.veteranshousingsummit.com.

Veterans and active duty members will learn about the various local and national housing programs that can help them get into their own home. The summit is intended to educate all service members, both current and retired, on the ins-and-outs of each of the programs that they are entitled to. Service members will learn on-the-spot how much they qualify for; they will walk away with their Certificate of Eligibility, which is necessary for financing with a VA loan.

Vaughn Maintains Top Regional Ranking and Moves Up in Multiple Categories for 2019

FLUSHING, N.Y. (PRWEB) September 10, 2018

For the eighth year in a row, Vaughn College has been ranked among the first-tier top regional colleges in the North and holds the sole rank of eighth this year. U.S. News & World Report results released September 10 again recognized Vaughn in its 2019 survey of the best regional colleges.

"Vaughn is committed to our mission of preparing graduates for a professional life of success and these latest rankings reflect that dedication,” said President Dr. Sharon B. DeVivo. “This year, in addition to a top ranking, we are particularly proud of a significant increase in the peer assessment category based on a survey of provosts and chief academic leaders that acknowledges the contribution of a Vaughn education.”

Vaughn was also ranked 11 in the “Best Value Schools” in the regional North category reinforcing the value of investing in a Vaughn degree, while coming in at number one and tied with the City University of New York for ethnic diversity and in the top 10 for the number of international students attending the College.

In this year's survey, for the second year in a row, Vaughn was ranked third in the “Best Colleges for Veterans” category. Vaughn is committed to its veteran student population providing a transition from military to civilian life and professional skills for long-term career success.

One of the variables used in the ranking is the predicted versus actual graduation rate. U.S. News calculates a predicted six-year graduation rate for Vaughn students based on economic and academic characteristics at the time of admission, and this year they predicted a rate of 43 percent and Vaughn achieved 52 percent.

Vaughn has been consistently recognized for its educational value to students, most recently by Careertrend ranking Vaughn as number four on its list of the hardest working colleges in the US. The report utilizes data from the US Census and the National Center for Education Statistics to estimate the hours students are likely to work upon graduation, based on the most popular majors at each institution. Last year, Vaughn was recognized as the number one institution in the country in economic mobility as published in The New York Times; the best at moving students from the bottom income levels to the top.

U.S. News & World Report began its annual rankings of American colleges and universities in 1983. As in years past, it used more than a dozen indicators to score its 2019 choices, including undergraduate academic reputation, faculty resources, student selectivity, graduation rates, freshman retention rates and alumni giving. Rankings were based on a weighted evaluation of all categories.

Further evidence of graduates’ success is the current career placement rate of 97 percent employed, 82 percent in their field of study, or continuing their education within one year of graduation.

PICS| Mira Rajput Kapoor: I was extremely religious about breast-feeding Misha and I am going to do the same with Zain

Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput welcomed their second child, Zain Kapoor, on September 5. The couple already has a daughter, Misha, who recently turned two years old.

They didn't suffer from any pre-delivery jitters this time. Admitting to being a bundle of nerves during the birth of his first child in 2016, Shahid told Mid Day in a recent interview, "It's completely different this time. I think we are calmer and more relaxed. Mira and I would be asking questions and having doubts. But this time around, we feel like veterans. We have done it once, so we can handle it this time around."

The family took the newborn home on September 7. As this was the 23-year-old’s second pregnancy, Mira was certain about some things. Mira says she is going to follow the same parenting rules she did during Misha.

*Here are a few excerpts from her recent interview - *

Mira has always stressed on the importance of breast-feeding. She reiterated the same in a recent interview with Zoomtv.com: “I have spoken about the importance of feeding the baby in the past too. I was extremely religious with Misha and I am going to do the same with my newborn. It is the greatest gift you can give your baby.”





Mira feels it is essential for new mothers to "Be happy and eat well.""Also, important is to sleep whenever the kids allow you to because that will no more be in your own hand," she added.





“This time I already have a toddler around and keeping a balance between the one you have and the one that's on its way is very important. Everything changes and you don't want that the one who has been the apple of your eyes for so long and feels that she's the centre of your world to feel neglected and ignored.That is very important,” Mira said.





Speaking about her grandsom Zain, Shahid's mother Neelima Azin told entertainment portal Spotboye in a recent interview, “Shahid and Mira now have a complete family. I am in the best phase of my life. Misha has been the love of my life ever since she was born. And now, Zain joins her. He is a beautiful child...He is gloriously good-looking. I see a bit of everyone in him. He will turn out to be as handsome as his father and chacha (Ishaan).”





“At the time of Misha’s birth only, Zain was decided. It was that it will be Misha if it is a girl (combination of Mira and Shahid) and if it is a boy, it will be Zain. Long back I had shared the name with Shahid. I had told Shahid that I love four names- Shahid, Ishaan, Zain and Kaamraan,” Neelima revealed.

Operation Gratitude Launches the BRIDGE Council

Corporate and Civic Leaders Join Forces with Military, Veteran, and First Responder Advocates to Bridge the Civilian-Service Divide

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) September 11, 2018

Operation Gratitude announced the launch of the BRIDGE Council today on the 17th anniversary of our nation’s longest war. The Council will bridge the civilian-service divide through a grassroots movement focused on volunteerism, gratitude, and hands-on engagement in communities across America.

Ensuring that U.S. Service Members, First Responders and their families are and feel supported comes at a critical time in our nation’s history, as American civilians are less personally connected to military service than ever before. According to the Department of Defense, the number of young adults with parents who have served in the military has dropped from 40% in 1995 to 15% today, and less than one percent of the U.S. population currently serves in the armed forces.

“Over the past decade, much attention has been paid to the widening civilian-military divide in our country. We see a similar gap developing between the general public and the 2.3 million police and firefighters also serving in harm’s way,” said retired Marine Lieutenant Colonel Kevin Schmiegel, CEO of Operation Gratitude. “Now is the time to build meaningful connections and bridge the divide that exists between those who serve in uniform, and grateful Americans everywhere who want to express their support.”

The BRIDGE Council will bring together corporate and civic leaders with Military, Veteran, and First Responder advocates to:

●    Engage more than 1 million Americans each year in hands-on volunteer opportunities through employee and community action events;
●    Hold more than 10,000 volunteer service projects across the country annually;
●    Deliver more than 350,000 care packages annually to Deployed Troops, New Recruit Graduates, Veterans, Military Families and First Responders;
●    Identify resources to respond to future large-scale military deployments or natural disasters.

“Mars is proud to be a longtime partner to the U.S. Military. We have been honored to provide our beloved treats and a sweet taste of home to soldiers deployed overseas for more than 75 years,” said Tim LeBel, President, Sales for Mars Wrigley Confectionery U.S. “We are excited to further our work with Operation Gratitude and be part of a large-scale solution to support our Service Members, further demonstrating the importance of treating U.S. Service Members, Veterans, and First Responders.”

Founding Members of the BRIDGE Council include:

●    The American Legion, New Jersey - Bob Looby, Chairman, Employment, Homeless & Education Committee and Past State Commander
●    CVS Health - David Casey, Vice President, Workforce Strategies and Chief Diversity Officer
●    Diamond Wipes International, Inc., Eve Yen, Founder and Chief Executive Officer
●    Deutsch Family Wine and Spirits - Alex Conison, Brand Manager - Josh Cellars
●    Gorilla Glue - Rob Lackman, Chief Operations Officer
●    Hasbro - Jennifer Huggins, Armed Forces Liaison
●    Honor Flight Nevada - Jon Yuspa, Founder and CEO
●    Mars Wrigley Confectionery, U.S. - Tim LeBel, President of Sales
●    Operation Gratitude - Kevin Schmiegel, Lieutenant Colonel, USMC (Ret.), CEO
●    Target Corporation - John C. Campbell, Divisional Planning, Merchandising
●    Team Kids - Julie Hudash, Founder and CEO
●    Washington D.C. Police Foundation - Assistant Chief Patrick A. Burke (Ret.), Executive Director

Over the past 15 years, Operation Gratitude has worked with corporate partners and civic groups to connect more than 500,000 volunteers across the country with 2.1 million care package recipients deployed overseas and here at home. Building on those connections and expressions of gratitude, the BRIDGE Council will expand the grassroots movement started a decade and a half ago by bringing communities together through hands-on volunteerism and direct interactions.

“The civilian-service divide will not be resolved in a conference room or from a podium in Washington D.C.,” said Lieutenant Colonel Schmiegel. “It will be bridged through hands-on volunteerism, expressions of gratitude, and meaningful engagements in thousands of communities across America. Our foundation for bridging the divide is established, and we welcome additional companies and civic groups to join this growing movement.”

Demonstrating that actions speak louder than words in bridging the divide, Operation Gratitude volunteers and members of the BRIDGE Council will deliver care packages in communities across the country on September 11th including Fullerton, CA and Minneapolis, MN; as well as Jacksonville, FL in the wake of the tragedy there.

ABOUT

The BRIDGE Council [Bridging the Divide through Gratitude and Engagement] is made up of corporate and civic leaders, along with Military, Veteran, and First Responder advocates, working together to bridge the civilian-service divide with a grassroots movement focused on volunteerism, gratitude, and hands-on engagement. Together, Council members will engage 1 million Americans at more than 10,000 volunteer service projects and community events across the country each year, resulting in the delivery of more than 350,000 Care Packages to our nation’s Heroes annually. Through meaningful connections in thousands of communities nationwide, the Council will bridge the divide between grateful Americans and the men and women in uniform who serve and protect them.

Operation Gratitude has sent more than 2.1 Million of its signature Care Packages to First Responders, New Recruits, Veterans and to individually named U.S. Service Members deployed overseas and their families waiting at home. Each package is filled with food, entertainment, hygiene and hand-made items, as well as personal letters of support written by grateful Americans. The non-profit organization’s mission is to lift the spirits and meet the evolving needs of the Military and First Responder communities, and to provide volunteer opportunities for Americans to express their appreciation to all who serve.

“Our goal is to further educate homeowners on critical aspects of home improvement so they can make more informed decisions when hiring contractors. Through our work with Infutor, we have been able to connect more homeowners and contractors,” said Dick Wells, president and CEO, Home Professionals. “In fact, we have seen a 214 percent increase in more engaged homeowners due to shorter online inquiry forms and the ability to use one single data point to complete an identity, such as street address which is critical information for our contractors. Subsequently, our professional base trusts that we can positively identify if a lead is a homeowner and provide more specifics on our engaged prospects which ultimately leads to more conversions.”

With a single consumer data point, e.g., name, address, phone, mobile or email, ID Max instantly delivers complete identity data on each inbound homeowner as well as attribute enhancements that enable personalized profile development.
