Nestled between May Grisham Elementary and Highway 135 is a strip of cute little townhomes known as the Orcutt View Park Condos. These homes offer 3 bedrooms, two baths, a one car garage, and a birds eye view of community sporting events held in May Grisham Park. They are about are about 1400 sq. ft. in size and most of the townhomes offer a small patio and backyard. The association dues are approximately $180 per month. For those who wish to commute to Vandenberg AFB, the location is ideal; the commute time is about 15 minutes to the main gate. Also, the Old Town Orcutt location offers many advantages as that historic area is currently undergoing a revitalization. Already present are a number of shops, restaurants and bistros that beg to be explored. All of that is within walking distance of the Orcutt View Park Condos.

Built by a local developer, Inland Pacific Builders, Pacific Crest is conveniently located on the south end of Santa Maria and a short 20 minute commute to the main gate of Vandenberg AFB. The Pacific Crest homes were constructed beginning about 2005, and the last few homes are still being sold by the developer. The floorplans are some of my favorites built in Santa Maria, with circular interior entries, spacious kitchens, and luxurious master suite options.

Can you buy a condo in today's market with FHA financing? The answer is yes you can, but it is very difficult lately. Fannie Mae enacted guidelines which have impacted the condo market tremendously. These guidelines were meant to encourage owner occupancy and stability in condo associations but in many instances they have ended up penalizing associations not already in conformance with those guidleines and making all but impossible for them to ever conform.
