The popular radio station home to Ryan Seacrest, KIIS FM, will also be hosting “Manny on the Street” at the center from 3pm-5pm.
Citrus Walk is The Olson Company’s fifth new urban living residential development in the Covina area. The Citrus Walk community will offer 37 townhomes, 8,000 square feet of new retail along downtown Covina’s Citrus Avenue. Citrus Walk will offer 12 flats over the new retail storefronts. The townhomes will be 2-3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2-car garages.
“The new Citrus Walk community embraces innovative architecture, the latest in ‘green’ home design and will integrate a new and refreshing urban lifestyle element to Covina’s downtown,” said Steve Olson, Chairman/CEO of The Olson Company. “As the fifth new home development here in the Covina area, The Olson Company is honored to be able to contribute a tailored development that will embrace the best of the area and also help it continue to thrive. We have worked with the City of Covina for many years now, and are thrilled to be kicking off this latest project in partnership with them.”

About The Olson Company
Established in 1988, The Olson Company and the Olson Homes brand are nationally recognized for creating unique in-town neighborhoods in urban communities throughout California. Headquartered in Seal Beach, Calif., The Olson Company has successfully partnered with governmental agencies and private landowners to create innovative housing solutions designed to fulfill the lifestyle needs of today’s buyer. The company works diligently with community and neighborhood groups to build a high level of awareness and broad-range community consensus around its neighborhoods. The Olson Company was awarded the prestigious “Builder of the Year” award by Professional Builder Magazine and the National Association of Home Builders.
Seal Beach, CA (Vocus/PRWEB) April 13, 2011 – It happens this time every year. Thousands of landlords across the southland send notification to their tenants that an increase of up to 10% will be added to their current monthly payment for rent. While a common reaction will be to just bite the bullet and renew at the higher payment, many smart homebuyers are weighing the option of making a home purchase instead. For those individuals, Olson Homes is offering 6 new home communities with payments comparable to what the landlord wants for rent. Michelle Johnson VP of Sales and Marketing for the Olson Company points out “With landlords raising rents again, many renters are considering home ownership as a way to control costs”
“But looking for a great loan just got a bit harder” said Michelle Johnson remarking on the recent FHA move. “One of the best loan programs out there today is from FHA, which allows buyers to purchase a home with only 3.5% down combined with flexible guidelines. However, with two critical FHA guidelines about to change, securing these loans will become increasingly difficult. Financial institutions are urging homebuyers who plan to take advantage of FHA financing to lock in their purchases now before the changes take effect later this month. This is why Olson Homes is trying to educate buyers on the value of home ownership over renting.” Michelle also points out that Olson Homes understands what today’s young buyer is looking for and builds communities based on today’s lifestyle values.
Adding to the challenge is a second change the FHA will be rolling out this month. “The FHA is severely limiting the number of loans they will allow in a condominium community to only 30%, which means the FHA is anticipating that they will be running out of loans before the summer even begins” says Ruby Johnson, VP of DRE/Escrow for Olson Homes. “With only a finite number of cases available many home shoppers will have to go with higher cost conventional financing. When the money runs out, most buyers will need to put 10%-20% down for conventional financing.” In this economy, that may put potential homeowners out of the market and right back into the rental market. The choices are either pay the rent increase or move again in search of an affordable alternative.
Many worry that with interest rates set to rise, with that in mind, they are moving forward with a home purchase now rather than wait. This way they are locking in an interest rate below 5%, making their monthly payments comparable to what they were paying in rent.
With 6 great new home communities located throughout Southern California, Olson Homes has a new home community perfect for young urban lifestyles designed to help kick the rental habit.
Olson Homes is currently helping new homebuyers fire their landlords with the following communities: Mosaic Walk in Garden Grove, from the low $300,000′s, Rio Walk in Montebello, California priced from the 290,000′s, Willow Walk in Compton, California priced from the mid $200,000′s, Sycamore Walk in Garden Grove, California priced from the mid $400,000’s, Citrus Walk in Covina, California now forming an interest list with new townhomes and flats from the mid $300,000′s, and Heritage Walk in Paramount, California offering new single family detached homes from the high $200,000′s.

PRESS RELEASE | COMPTON, CA October 1, 2010
There may never be a better time to jump into homeownership for first time homebuyers. Current interest rates are now hovering at or below 4.5% and can’t get much lower. Home prices are at historical lows too, making it possible to get a home mortgage payment at about what many people are paying for rent. For those still on the fence on whether homeownership is right for them or even if they can financially afford it, there is a great event coming to Olson Home’s Willow Walk in Compton Saturday October 2nd. Potential homebuyers can come meet current Willow Walk Homeowners and listen to them share their new home buying experiences. The Willow Walk Sales and mortgage team will be available to educate buyers about the home buying process, City of Compton’s downpayment assistance program, pre-qualify them for a home loan, and give anyone who comes to the event a free credit report. Those who purchase a home this weekend will receive a free upgraded gourmet kitchen.
At over 85% sold out, Willow Walk is home to over 100 happy families. Many of them never dreamed that homeownership was even within reach, but happily found that Willow Walk was not only affordable, it was a great community near transit, great shopping, and so many new and exciting improvements going on in the city that visitors commonly say they cannot believe that this is the same Compton they grew up hearing about. Current homeowners are so pleased and happy with their new home purchase, many have agreed to share their stories publicly on behalf of the community by appearing on billboards, testimonial videos, and even heard on KJLH.
You can visit Willow Walk on October 2nd for the Take Ownership Event and meet the homeowners personally, or visit the Willow Walk website to watch videos featuring actual homeowners tell their stories and learn more about the event.

FULLERTON, CA. (OCREGISTER) August 11, 2010- Affordable new home builder, The Olson Company, has two of the top selling communities in Orange County. Mosaic Walk, a 3-story LEED Certified Green townhome community of just 78 homes and Heritage Walk in Fullerton with 34 homes to be built . The two communities have been selling steadily despite what has been considered an economically tough housing market. The reason for such brisk sales has been that Olson Homes saw a need to create new and entry level priced housing to satiate the pent up demand for affordable housing in Orange County. Both new home communities offer new homes with pricing that starts from the high $200,000s to the mid $300,000s.
Mosaic Walk is located within the International West entertainment district in Garden Grove. International West is Garden Grove’s premier resort destination, offering top-rate hotels and popular dining places within a modern, upscale environment. Mosaic Walk’s townhomes are of contemporary design and are currently under construction adjacent to the sold out Lotus Walk community also built by Olson Homes. Mosaic Walk is located off Harbor Boulevard and Palm Street and is situated near many of the area’s most desirable restaurants, nightlife, shopping and entertainment.
First time homebuyers wanting to live in Orange County will find that Mosaic Walk’s spacious floorplans range in size from 1,294 square feet to 1,791 square feet. The homes offer up to four bedrooms and four bathrooms and include attached two-car garages. With prices set from the mid $300,000s, Mosaic Walk offers an exceptional value for new housing in Orange County and due to limited supply, new home sales at Mosaic Walk have already sold out the first phases.
Another new housing success story is Heritage Walk, located just blocks from Fullerton’s historic downtown district and the city’s popular Metrolink station, as well as next to Richman Elementary school. The Heritage Walk community will feature three stylish floor plans that range from 1,325 to1,450 square feet and offer three to four bedrooms. These homes will incorporate Spanish design elevations that compliment the existing neighborhood and surrounding community. Heritage Walk caused quite a stir when it sold more than half of the available homes in it’s first weekend. This community is now selling in the final phase and is expected to be sold out by the end of August.
“Both communities are really unique in that they offer homebuyers a chance to live in the middle of everything Southern California has to offer. The market for affordable housing in Orange County is extremely undeserved. Both Mosaic Walk and Heritage Walk are designed to fill that void and offer an in-town lifestyle within reach of moderate income households.” said Michelle Johnson, VP of Sales and Marketing for The Olson Company.
This weekend only, both communities are offering a pair of FREE MOVIE PASSES to the first 20 visitors at each of the communities. Offer ends, August 15th, 2010.
To join the interest list and get more information about these affordable New Homes in Orange County visit Mosaic Walk or Heritage Walk .
