In July 2006, Mint Properties opened an office in the Mission Creek Plaza on Santa Maria Way. Tni’s stated aim is to offer the highest quality representation and professional service to her clients. Independence affords her the ability to avoid a volume driven approach; the result is prompt, reliable, individualized service coupled with straightforward advice. Indeed, she brings the same level of professionalism to real estate as she did to the law.
The Santa Maria Times reports that this housing downturn has been particularly tough on the local economy. Employment growth for the area was essentially flat, and adjusted for inflation the median income for the county showed a decline. However, not all housing news was negative. Research shows that of the 255 residential building permits issued in Santa Barbara County, 166 of those units were in Santa Maria. Also, existing home sales and loan applications have increased.
