Nothing Like Hopping on a Great Horse and Hacking Around Coto de Caza
Behind the gates of Coto de Caza lies direct access to an amazing trail system for horses, hikers, and mountain bikers.

Ever wonder why it takes so long to get an offer to buy one of the short sale homes for sale in Coto de Caza approved? The truth may be very different than what you might think.

Especially when Mortgage Bankers Association statistics show that a foreclosure typically costs the lender 30 percent more than a short sale.
As any Coto de Caza Realtor or home buyer who has tried to close a short sale offer will tell you, closing a short sale can be a very long and complicated process.
In July of last year, Bank of America claimed it was going…
