MARCH 2014 • VOL. 8 • ISSUE 3 Play Ball! Spring is here and it's time for the opening pitch of another Little League season. When I played baseball as an 8-yearold, times were slightly different. In '77, my uniform consisted of a mesh, trucker-style hat paired with a mundane green t-shirt. Back in the day, there were no fancy jerseys sporting professional team names, no beautifully manicured fields with dugouts and definitely not the smorgasbord of snacks that magically appear after each game. I loved playing the game as a boy and am now fortunate to be able to assist with my son's 8-year-old team and to share my passion for the sport. Go Aztecs!

COVER STORY

OCEAN Auto Mall

Driving Service First BY SHELLEY HUDSON

PICTURED: Ocean Honda GM, Patrick Peters in their newly built on-site cafe.

"It's always about the customer!" Ocean Auto Mall’s Jeff Cappo may be a fresh face on the South OC car scene, but he’s far from the new kid on the block. Cappo’s 30-plus years in the industry and string of 30 dealerships spread out over seven states has earned him a reputation among manufacturers for excellence in sales and service. Victory Automotive Group, Ocean Auto Mall's parent company, acquired the Kia, Nissan, and Honda stores in San Juan Capistrano in mid-2013 and has captured the attention of the community by making a few small, but significant changes. Cappo operates Ocean Auto Mall like his other endeavors, under a simple core philosophy, ”If the customer feels comfortable, the customer wants to do business.” To create this inviting and comfortable environment, Cappo introduced value-added perks to both sales and service customers. A just-completed café offers complimentary lunch to guests waiting for cars in the service department, and if waiting is not an option, a loaner car is provided—also at no charge. All vehicles are returned washed and vacuumed as well.

Cappo cites his staff as the primary factor for driving customer satisfaction. He hired additional employees, extended operating hours, and considers training an integral part of every work day. “Our salespeople are all ‘car buffs.’ They’re driven by product knowledge and information. We have drastically improved the customer experience, and this is how we do it,” explains Cappo. Patrick Peters, General Manager at Ocean Auto Mall's Honda dealership, elaborates, “We take a unique approach to the car business here; it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen in all my years in the field. Most GMs sit behind a desk all day and look at spreadsheets. To the contrary, I greet guests in the lobby and introduce myself to every person walking in the door. This practice is not only an enjoyable part of my job and great for staff morale, it’s empowering for our customers to have this kind of access. Trust is very important to a customer making a sizeable investment.” Ocean Auto Mall’s customer service efforts are underscored by the group’s impressive sales performance. The number of cars sold in January was more than double the mark in the same period in 2013 before Ocean Auto Mall took the reins. Cappo is modest about his success, however, “It’s easy when you have highlytrained people who want to be here; we just stick to the basics.” Patrick Peters agrees, “It’s true. Everyone is greeted and made to feel welcome. We want our customers to tell their friends about us!”

Advances in automotive technology have kept the interests of buyers piqued as well. Peters says his best-selling Honda models are perennial favorites: Civic, Accord, and CRV. With all three boasting fuel economies in the 40 miles per gallon-plus range; that’s not surprising. Peters is especially enthusiastic about the redesigned 2014 Civic and the upcoming 2015 Fit, which will be larger and even more of a fuel sipper. Newly-implemented safety features like the “lane departure camera” and integrated smart phone applications offer drivers options to help mitigate tedious freeway time. Nissan’s reputation in the market for solid, reliable trucks and sedans is buoyed by the brand’s “Safety Shield” monitoring system, pursuit of sustainable manufacturing methods, and consistently remarkable values. Kia’s safety ratings, sophisticated styling, and increasing residual values keep these models at the top of sales charts, too. Motortrend named the Kia Cadenza and Kia Forte best-in-class, with features including ventilated front seats and in-vehicle wireless connectivity for diagnostics and navigation. The jaw-dropping UVO “Infotainment and Telematics” suite allows drivers to make hands-free calls and manage music libraries with only voice commands, making road trips fun as well as safe. For Jeff Cappo, his commitment to making Ocean Auto Mall as successful as his other dealerships starts and ends with his clients. “I feel like I’ve been doing this since Moby Dick was a minnow,” he laughs, “but it’s always, always, always about the customer.”

BEVELED GLASS for any DOOR or WINDOW

DOHENY Builders Supply Then and now...

How time flies... Doheny Builders Supply has been serving our local community for over 45 years now! Unlike some of the big-box stores, Doheny Builders Supply (DBS) has been family-owned and -operated since the day it began as a local lumberyard, back in 1969 by Norm Clow. Today, DBS has been diligently passed down within the Clow family to Robin Clow, who began running the business in June 2012, when her brother Tracy unexpectedly passed away. She has since taken the reins of DBS and is committed to keeping the same core values, which have helped DBS stand the test of time. She emphasizes a concerted focus on exceptional customer service while offering a variety of services and products with competitive pricing. As one can imagine, DBS has many loyal and repeat customers!

Adding beveled glass to my entry doors has had the biggest impact for the smallest investment of any home improvement I’ve ever done.

“After”

DBS epitomizes a “throwback” family run business, from the assortment of framed black and white photos sprinkled on their walls to the genuine smiles and friendly greetings by their employees. Robin has recently adopted the catchy company tagline: “Doing business the old-fashioned way, with integrity." With that motto in mind, each person employed there plays a pivotal and vital role in the company’s operation and overall success. One can clearly see and feel that pride of ownership is taken there, even in the smallest of details.

James M.

- LAGUNA NIGUEL

Growth has certainly not diminished this "family-owned business." Today, they have a variety of thriving departments specializing in doors and windows, custom mill working, landscaping, hardware, rebar and customer deliveries. DBS is well known within the local community to excel in special orders and to has an abundant supply of construction materials, including various masonry products, doors, windows, moulding, skylights and shutters, hardware, accessories and a variety of needful tools. If you haven’t already done so, then this spring is the perfect time to visit this family run business that offers one-stop shopping for all of your indoor/outdoor needs. Make sure that you say hi to Robin!

Harv WyMAN

ruptcy, or foreclosure can take advantage of Alpine’s Alternative Mortgage Program, which is designed to get families back into homes without the “seasoning time” requirement. “Most companies can accommodate the ‘round peg-round hole’ buyers, but we can extend our services to a wider segment of the population. With Alpine's own mortgagebacked security, almost anything is possible,” adds Wyman. Changing legislation in the mortgage industry has resulted in tighter restrictions for both lenders and borrowers. Despite a challenging regulatory environment, Harv asserts that Alpine's core competencies lie in the versatility and financial strength behind the company's product mix. His ability to offer more competitive, high performance programs—and to fund them faster—allows him to deliver results for his clients under circumstances where other mortgage brokers and bankers can't. The accessibility to specialized products, coupled with concierge-level customer service have generated a loyal and long-term clientele for Wyman.

THE MORTGAGE MANAGER s the South Orange County real estate market slowly inches its way to a more favorable climate, homeowners, prospective homeowners, and market watchers inevitably shift focus to property values, refinancing, and optimizing investment strategies. With new government regulatory pressures and increasingly stringent lending requirements in place, partnering with a seasoned industry veteran is a pivotal decision toward securing your financial future. With a 25-year career in the local mortgage finance arena, Harv Wyman has witnessed the extreme highs and lows of the Southern California real estate market. As a graduate of USC, Wyman made his home in Laguna Niguel, where he and wife Kim have raised their four children, coached youth teams, and enjoyed a 20-year membership at the Monarch Beach Club and the El Niguel Country Club. “Over the years I have made so many great friends and acquaintances; that's why I love doing this. I like being entrenched in the community and helping my neighbors make the right choices," shares Harv. After operating his own brokerage firm for many years, Wyman recently transitioned to a position as Senior Mortgage Analyst with Alpine Mort-

gage Planning in the Ocean Ranch neighborhood of Laguna Niguel. As a subsidiary of Pinnacle Capital, Alpine Mortgage boasts unparalleled strength and unlimited resources within the industry. “It’s amazing to be able to present such a variety of lending programs to clients,” says Wyman, “Since Alpine funds its own loans, I have a flexibility that I was never able to offer in the past. I have absolutely everything at my disposal.” In addition to conforming and jumbo loans, Alpine provides FHA/VA, interest-only, reverse mortgages, and special programs for borrowers who don’t quite fit the criteria of traditional lenders. Clients who have suffered setbacks from a flagging economy such as a short sale, bank-

Harv's analysis of current market conditions is optimistic, but guarded. “The historically low interest rates helped stimulate the local economy toward a rebound, but rates have been slowly creeping back up. In fact, we’ve seen a full percentage point increase since May. Combined with the usual seasonal sales slump, more properties on the market, and rising prices, buyer incentive has plateaued. All signs point to a continuation of suppressed interest rates through 2014, however. The traditional home-selling season is Spring, so we expect to see a similar boost in activity this year as well.” Let Harv Wyman’s experience and resources work for you. To learn more about mortgage and refinancing opportunities you might not find elsewhere, call Harv directly at 949.939.3410 for a private consultation.

ACCOLADES

"I’ve worked with Harv for almost 20 years and I couldn’t be happier with the level of service I’ve received. Harv is not just a loan officer; he approaches each transaction from a risk management standpoint. He looks at all the potential risk factors involved and tries to mitigate them one by one. Harv’s patience and attention to detail are incredible, and the personal attention stands out even in a time when we as consumers expect increasingly more from service providers. He listens intently and is extremely personable. Harv always has a smile and a twinkle in his eye." — Dr. Roger Thomas, President, Newport Harbor Radiology Associates Medical Group

QUESTION: Is there a particular program that you can recommend for weight loss? —Kimberly, San Clemente ROSS MEDICAL: When it comes to weight loss, there’s no lack of fad diets promising fast results. However, such diets limit your nutritional intake, can be unhealthy, and most times tend to fail in the long run. The key to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight isn’t about short-term dietary changes. It’s about a lifestyle that includes healthy eating, regular physical activity, and balancing the number of calories you consume with the number of calories your body uses. Staying in control of your weight contributes not only to good health now but as you age it will also be easier for you to manage. No Appointment

A: Divorce is rated the 2nd most stressful life event following the death of a spouse. It is common to suffer from depression during and after a divorce. Depression is a medical condition and needs to be assessed by your medical doctor or mental health specialist.

SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION: - Depressed Mood - Diminished interest in activities - Significant weight loss or weight gain - Insomnia (can’t sleep) - Hyper-somnia (sleeping too much) - Fatigue and agitation - Feelings of worthlessness or inappropriate guilt - Poor concentration or indecisiveness - Recurrent thoughts of death or suicide

Let me assess and help you recover during this difficult time. —Dr. Julie A. Davis

FOOD & DRINK

Open 7 Days a Week!

Come see us at our Second Choya Location

BY BONNIE SMALL

NOW OPEN! HAPPY HOUR 3-5PM

(in Ladera Ranch)

Everyone’s a little bit Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, but in South OC we can enjoy some Irish warmth and comfort food year round at Patsy’s Irish Pub in Laguna Niguel. In the same location (at Crown Valley and Golden Lantern) since 1984, Patsy’s has been the goto spot to catch the day’s games and enjoy the wee luxury of a Guinness or Smithwick’s on tap.

Great Happy Hour Choices! Sapporo Drafts Only $3

Get started with any one of several great appetizers like the shrimp on toast (think petite Texas toast with an enormous prawn nestled under a layer of crunchy golden parmesan shavings). The crab stuffed mushrooms are brimming with a savory filling made from King Crab and finished with a tasty cheesy sauce. Also fantastic are the fire roasted artichokes, which are served with a yummy dill sauce and drawn butter.

PATIO

If you’re a corned beef lover, Patsy’s is the real deal! The meat is nicely trimmed, braised for hours, and served with a wedge of steamed cabbage and an outrageously tasty horseradish sauce (which also accompanies the corned beef tacos that I confess to having a minor addiction to). As the experts say, breakfast is the most important meal of the day and Patsy’s Irish Breakfast is one of the best things on the menu and it’s served all day! Fried eggs are surrounded by rashers (Irish style bacon made from pork loin), traditionally spiced Irish bangers (sausages), sautéed mushrooms, broiled tomato slices, and house-made corned beef hash. On Saturdays and Sundays, you can get creative at Patsy’s Bloody Mary bar. A hand-crafted concoction of tomato juice, Worcestershire, and fresh horseradish arrives at the table as a blank canvas, and off you go to the condiment station to personalize the garnishes with supplies of celery sticks, gherkins, sweet chili peppers, pickled onions and blue cheese stuffed olives, just to name a few. Make Patsy's your St. Patrick's Day celebration destination this March 17th! 34 MARCH 2014
