The Crestline Lifestyle

If you own a home in Crestline, you already know that Crestline is slower and more relaxed than the race going on down the hill. When you finish your day and begin the drive up to Crestline, you feel the temperature cooling, the air getting clearer and fresher, and the tension you've been carrying around in your shoulders relaxing. When you get to the Crestline Cutoff and see the smog down below that you've been breathing in on a regular basis, suddenly life makes more sense being up here in these beautiful mountains. If you desire this kind of peace, even for a vacation home, then real estate and homes in Crestline are your answer!

In Crestline, you are surrounded by trees of all shapes and sizes: flowering dogwoods, towering cedars, pines, aspens, maples and more. Our trees date from when this forest first came into existence. When the breeze blows through the leaves and needles you hear a whispering sound as the wind travels through the trees through our small valley. At night you see stars in the heavens that you forgot were there because of the light pollution.  

Crestline Has Affordable Homes

Crestline homes and real estate are very affordable, with vintage cabins, rustic homes, or new construction homes for sale. Since it takes 15 minutes to get to the bottom of the mountain, Crestline is commuter friendly. With the opening of the 210 freeway that meets with Highways 18, 330, 215, 15, and close proximity to interstates 10 and 60, you can go all the way from Pasadena to Paradise in about an hour!

                 Stunning Lake Gregory From the East

There are many opportunities up here for Lake Gregory's real estate. We are a full time community but also investor-friendly with our vacation and rental properties. You can purchase Crestline real estate for full time living, part time as your own vacation home, vacation rental, or full time rental. There are many parcels of land available with gorgeous views of Lake Gregory, Mount Baldy, and the high desert of Apple Valley and Hesperia. Buy land...they aren't making any more of it (except in Hawaii and certain islands in the South Pacific!)

            

Take your time looking through this website. There is a lot of information here about Crestline homes for sale and the community of Crestline, with many pictures that I have taken to help familiarize you with our community and our mountain. This site is still a work in progress, with new pictures and content being added. Please contact me with any questions or comments. Take care and God Bless!

Mortgage PROTECTION Program!


Tuesday, March 31, 2009 
Brought to you by the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS

Thursday, April 2, C.A.R. will launch a new program designed to provide peace of mind to first-time buyers who are hesitant to enter the housing market due to concerns about potential job loss, and subsequently being unable to meet their monthly mortgage obligations.

Through the C.A.R. Housing Affordability Fund Mortgage Protection Program (C.A.R.H.A.F. MPP), first-time home buyers who lose their jobs due to layoffs may be eligible to receive up to $1,500 per month for up to six months to help make their mortgage payments. A qualified co-buyer also can participate in the program, for a reduced monthly benefit of $750 per month for up to six months in the event of a job loss. Program benefits also include coverage for accidental disability and a $10,000 death benefit. C.A.R.’s Housing Affordability Fund is dedicating $1 million to the program this year, and estimates that as many as 3,000 families will benefit from the program throughout 2009.

To qualify for the Mortgage Protection Program, applicants must:
. Be a first-time home buyer – someone who has not owned a home in the last three years
. Open escrow April 2, 2009, or later, and close on or before Dec. 31, 2009
. Use a California REALTOR® in the transaction
. Purchase the property in California
. Be a W-2 employee (cannot be self-employed or military personnel)

First-time home buyers must request an application for the H.A.F. Mortgage Protection Program from Amy Steele, REALTOR®. For applications and other information on this exciting new program, go to www.car.org/aboutus/hafmainpage/
