With scenery, trails, El Prado, three clubhouses and a full calendar of events, it’s no wonder Sendero was named Best Master-Planned Community in Orange County—and in the entire country. Now, Sendero Field is nearly here. Come out and play. Sendero Field is our own 15-acre community park with baseball fields, pickleball courts, twisting trails and big green spaces for festivals, farmers markets, movie nights and seasonal celebrations. Southern live oak and sycamore will offer shady spots for BBQs and picnics, and an adventure play park for kids will include imagination stations, play structures, climbing rocks, and lots of places to slide, swing and roll.

Freshwater Fishing in Southern California
San Diego has something for everyone from sight seeing to camping. Even fishermen and women can enjoy San Diego with over twenty lakes and reservoirs as well as ocean piers, almost every type of fish can be caught. This article offers five of the more well known lakes around San Diego County. Two excellent and well thought out web sites to help the fisherman find out where they really want to go and what to expect during their trip are www.sdfish.com and www.californiafishingonline.com. So grab the rod and tackle, wrangle up the bait and let’s explore five of San Diego’s highest rated fishing destinations: Lake Dixon: Located up in Escondido with seventy acres of fishing. This lake is open year around and offers night fishing during the summer months. The fees range from $3 to $5 and offers shore fishing. Boat rentals are available as well as a bait shop on the premises. Lake El Capitan aka El Capitan Reservoir: Over fifteen hundred acres of fishing and picnicking. The lake is open Friday through Sunday and offers twenty-two miles of shoreline along with a maximum water depth of one hundred ninety-seven. There are no concession stands available,
but there are vending machines. The staff of El Capitan sells bait and fishing licenses and a day use permit is sold at the entrance. Lake Hodges: Located in Del Mar with over twelve hundred acres. This lake offers boat rentals as well as allowing use of private boats with only paying a small launch fee. There are no concession stands available and the staff handles the permit purchase at the docks available. Lower Otay Lake: Down in the South Bay location of San Diego, this lake gives the fisherman over twelve hundred acres of fishing, both from the shore and by boat. The lake has a concession stand located in the picnic grounds. This is one of the few lakes that allow dogs (leashed) to enjoy a day with their family as long they are kept fifty feet away from the water. Boat rentals and permits are sold be the lake staff. If wishing to use a private boat, the lake does charge a launch fee. Lake Miramar: This lake is open ten months a year (only closed in October and November). With one hundred and sixty-two acres, shore fishing and boat fishing abound. Boat rentals are available on the weekends only and private boats are welcome at any time. The concession stand
sells permit and bait (including tackle) and also sells basic items. There are barbeque sites available in the picnic area. All of these lakes are stocked with a variety of fish including but not limited to large mouth bass, rainbow trout, catfish and crappie. Each site does have a limit to the amount of fish that can be caught and each are clearly listed where the permits are sold. Irvine Lake Irvine Lake is a reservoir in Orange County, California, United States. The lake is on Santiago Creek, located in Silverado, California, east of the city of Irvine and close to Irvine Regional Park. The lake is formed by the Santiago Dam at the lake’s north end, which was built between 1929 and 1931, and the lake was originally called the Santiago Reservoir. The dam
was built by the Irvine Company (the private developers of the city of Irvine) and the Serrano Irrigation District (now called the Serrano Water District); it is now administered jointly by the Serrano Water District and the Irvine Ranch Water District. The lake provides drinking water to Villa Park and some parts of Orange, and provides supplementary irrigation water to neighbouring ranches. Access to the lake is via Santiago Canyon Road, the road leading from Orange to Silverado. The Cleveland National Forest is on the northeast side of the lake. Stocked with largemouth bass, catfish, trout and crappie, the lake fishery opened to the public in 1941. The land around the lake is owned by the Irvine Company, which leases the fishing, boating, and camping concessions to SWD Recreation Inc.

Fishing with Your Kids The Best Way to Have an Enjoyable Experience Fishing By Carl Kolchak Fishing with your kids should be a fun family experience, but it often can turn into a tedious chore. Tangled lines, a lack of action, and the suggestion of going fishing with your kids can turn from excited looks into bored faces in a hurry. Trying to keep up, especially if you have more than two children, can run a parent ragged, as he or she tries to make sure lines are in the water and everybody is having a good time. Here are some tips to make sure that fishing with your kids is a worthwhile and enjoyable adventure. First and foremost, you need to catch fish. Nothing creates the potential for boredom more than a fishing pole that just sits there with no fish biting! Pretty soon the children are wondering why they are there to begin with and fishing with your kids goes from a great idea to a very bad one in a matter of a few minutes. There are many things you can do to increase your odds of catching fish, giving the kids the excitement that will keep their interest. Go fishing with the kids in the early morning or late afternoon; these are the peak times for most species of fish to bite. During the summer, after supper is the optimal time to gather the equipment and head to the local fishing spot. If the kids are too young to bait their own hooks and cast out, you need to forget about doing any fishing yourself and concentrate on their needs. It’s no fun for a kid to stand around and watch you fish. Proper equipment is crucial to success when fishing with your kids. Do not bother with those “kiddie” poles that cannot stand up to the rigors of actual fishing. An inexpensive spinning reel and rod will do the trick; you aren’t going after world records, you simply want to catch fish. A spinning reel is the easiest type for a youngster to learn to cast with. If they are old enough to cast, make sure you put them in a spot way from trees and brush that will snag your child’s line and hook. Find an open area along the river bank or shore of the pond. Nothing is more frustrating while fishing than having to break your line, tie another hook on, rebait it and cast again, only to get caught up in the same branch or log! If you are fishing with your kids at a small pond, there are two species of fish that you can usually targetbullheads and pumpkinseeds. All you need for bait are night crawlers, which you can catch yourself on any damp
spring or early summer evening. Get the children involved in this, by letting them go out and catch them for themselves. All they need is a flashlight and a bit of coaching. Catching the worms will be almost as much fun as catching the fish. If you need to buy your bait, many convenience stores actually sell worms during the fishing season. Night crawlers can be kept in a container in your refrigerator for weeks; only be sure that everyone knows what is in that container to avoid unwanted surprises. Once you are at the pond, space the kids out so they will have their own areas to fish and avoid tangling their lines. You do not need to use floats or bobs. Have a number four snelled hook tied to the line with a pair of split shots secured about eighteen inches up from the hook. A snelled hook is a hook that comes already attached to a short piece of monofilament with a loop tied at the end. You can tie it right to your line; the number of the hook, in this case a number four, is an indicator of the hook’s size. The split shot will give you or your child added weight on the line, allowing the line to be cast further. Hook the night crawler on and cast out. Place a forked stick into the ground and lean the pole against it. When the fish bite, your child will see the line start to move. It will either begin to go out as the fish runs with the bait or there will be a distinct jerking motion that your child can
easily detect as the end of the rod as it snaps back and forth. Now is when you have your child pick up the rod and try to set the hook. Teach them not to simply reel the line in, but to give the line a good, quick yank in an attempt to hook the fish. They will be able to tell in an instant if the fish is on by the tension and feel of the line. Have them reel in, but not too fast, always being sure not to let the line go slack. Pumpkinseeds, a common pond dweller, are small in size, but their streamlined shape allows them to put up a great fight for their stature. They will zigzag to and fro in the water until your child can land them. They have sharp spines on their back fins that need to be avoided. It is important for your child to learn how to properly handle a fish once it has been caught, so as to be able to release it unharmed. Show your child how to hold the fish and remove the hook, teaching them not to be afraid of doing this. Until your child is old enough to handle this alone, you will be doing the removing, as well as putting on the worm and casting out. Bullhead will bite one right after another on a good day, and they can keep you running from child to child as they land them or lose them. Let your child either catch the fish or be responsible for it getting away, as this will help them learn what they did right or wrong. They will get a feel for when the fish are biting, when to set the hook, and how fast to reel in. Eventually, they will be able to hold the pole and
know when the fish are biting, without having to lean it against the stick. If you are going to be fishing with your kids at a river, add more split shots so you can cast out further. Rivers are more unpredictable in that there are many more species of fish that can be caught; trout, bass, white and yellow perch, suckers, pumpkinseed, and carp are commonly caught on night crawlers here in the Northeast. The potential is there for your kid to hook some decent sized fish; avoid the temptation to jump in and land the “big one”. Fishing with your kids at a river can be made even more fun by assigning each species of fish a point value. The more desirable the fish, such as a bass or trout, the higher number it is assigned. Have your kids keep track of how many points they have accumulated, with some sort of reward or prize going to the winner. Teach them to be sure to leave the pond shore or riverbank the way they found it, litter and garbage free. If the fish are not biting, a pair of binoculars can come in handy as there is bound to be something of interest around the water, whether it’s a kingfisher, a mallard, or a muskrat. Fishing with your kids can be great fun, enhanced by their learning to appreciate the outdoors and actually catching fish. Put yourself and your children in a situation where they have the best chance to succeed, and you and they will look forward to spending this time together long after they have grown up!

OC BREW & BITES FESTIVAL TO RAISE FUNDS AND AWARENESS FOR FOOD banks Community Action Partnership of Orange County (CAPOC), operating the OC Food Bank, is hosting a brews and bites festival in the Farmers Park at the Anaheim Packing House on Saturday, April 11th from 1-5pm to end poverty in Orange County. The ‘OC Brews and Bites Music Fest’ will feature more than 30 craft beers from regional breweries paired with delicious bites from a dozen local restaurants that boast craft brewing on tap. In addition, live folk style music will take stage during the festival with performances by Cubensis and The Outriders. CAPOC is holding a community celebration of its 50th anniversary with this kick-off event bringing the community together to commemorate its roots of community action as Orange County’s designated antipoverty fighter. “We are working to bring prosperity and economic life back to low-income communities. We noticed that Orange County was becoming a center for locally grown businesses that help to create jobs and return life to distressed communities. The Craft brew and gastropubs are leading the way to build business neighborhoods
such as downtown Santa Ana and Anaheim that are ushering a new renaissance for the community,” said Alan Woo, CAPOC Director of Planning and Fund Development. “By supporting this event, you are not only enjoying some of the best beer and bites in the county, but you are helping to provides services to the poor and hungry.” Funds raised from the event will help the OC Food Bank buy thousands of pounds of fresh produce for food insecure families and individuals
who cannot afford to purchase fresh produce or nutritious meals. The recent effects of the California water drought have dwindled the amount of fresh produce donations to the OC Food Bank impacting the Food Bank’s ability to serve the growing number of food insecure in Orange County. “Providing fresh produce is an essential part of our Farm2Families program ensuring that young children and families receive essential nutrition as part of their consistent diet,” said Mark
Lowry, CAPOC Food Bank Director. “As the Brew City of Southern California, we are proud to host the brews and bites event in our city,” said Anaheim Mayor Tom Tait. “Here’s a chance to come to Anaheim to enjoy local craft beer and delicious food, all while helping those in need. I would say that’s a win, win, win!” Tickets for the OC Brew and Bites Music Fest are $50 and are available at www.ocfoodbank.org/ brewsandbites.

NASCAR ’s Sprint Cup and Xfinity series
Photo and story by William Casper NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series continues racing out west with a trip to Fontana, California’s Auto Club Speedway, home of the Auto Club 400, took place Friday through Sunday, March 20th through 22nd. They’re joined on the schedule by the stars of the Xfinity Series, who competed in the Drive4Clots.com 300 on Saturday. Friday’s fans gathered to watch the practice sessions and qualifying for both the Sprint Cup and Xfinity series drivers, this is the most important day next to race day. In these sessions, the crew chief and his team experiment with the cars at the track where the race will be held. In these test sessions, the crew chief and his team experiment with the cars, finding just the right setup that will allow a fast qualifying time on

that particular track. The process involves a driver completing one or sometimes two laps around an empty track. The whole idea is to go as fast as possible without losing control of the car or crashing, and at most tracks, qualifying speeds are often far greater than the highest speeds attained during the race. After a trying weekend in Atlanta NASCAR has amended the Friday schedules for the next three race weekends: Las Vegas, Phoenix and Fontana. Friday’s opening practice for Sprint Cup teams originally scheduled to be 1 hour, 25 minutes has been shortened by 10 minutes at all three tracks. Qualifying for the three events will now take place five minutes later than previously scheduled. The changes will allow an extra 15 minutes for teams to prepare their cars for inspection and for officials to complete the inspection process.
The Ladera Ranch News
The first of 2 races to have kicked off the weekend with the Drive4Clots. com 300 NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Auto Club Speedway and although Erik Jones roared to the top of the speed charts, qualifying No. 1 for Saturday afternoon’s race it was Kevin Harvick that remained hot with a dominating victory. Driving for JR Motorsports, Harvick won his second XFINITY race of the season in just three starts, leading 100 of 150 laps at the 2-mile Southern California oval. Finishing second was Brendan Gaughan in a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, followed by Erik Jones in a Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota, and Harvick’s teammate, 2014 series champion Chase Elliott. Sundays NASCAR Sprint Cup race was nothing short of exciting with Brad Keselowski roaring past Kurt Busch on the final lap and held off streaking Kevin Harvick to win
at Fontana on Sunday, earning his first NASCAR victory of the season in a wild finish. Harvick fell just short of a three-race West Coast sweep, but finished second to extend his remarkable streak of top-two Sprint Cup finishes to eight races dating to last season. Richard Petty holds the NASCAR record with 11 straight in 1975. Keselowski led only one lap in his Team Penske Ford, but capitalized on two late restarts to a green-white-checkered finish. California fans will have to wait until the 2016 season to see their favorite drivers once again go for the win. If you would like to experience NASCAR firsthand, ticket and camping information is available on the speedway web site: www. autoclubspeedway.com or by calling the speedway at 1-800-944-RACE (7223)

Napa In Newport Raises $680,000 for Boys With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Photos by: Shando Venneau, Shanda Photographic Annette Wolford with Ruben Flores and Irene Krinsky. Nearly 300 guests enjoyed the fun and flavor of Napa Valley wineries as they gathered at the Balboa Bay Resort with a common goal of saving the lives of thousands of boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The Napa in Newport Wine Auction raised more than $680,000 to support CureDuchenne’s mission to find a cure for Duchenne, a progressive musclewasting disease that leaves boys in wheelchairs by their mid-teens and claiming their lives by their mid-20s. Napa in Newport attendees were treated to a spectacular wine tasting presented by 29 of Napa Valley’s most prestigious wineries and curated by Master Sommelier Michael Jordan, one of only 15 people in the world to hold both Master Sommelier and Certified Wine Educator diplomas. Chuck and Anne McMinn, owners of Vineyard 29, were the honorary event co-chairs, and renowned Chef David Slay of the celebrated Park Ave Restaurant personally designed the 4-course menu for the evening. Unique items, rarely available wines and custom, once-in-a-lifetime Napa Valley experiences highlighted the silent and live auction. CureDuchenne co-founders Debra and Paul Miller welcomed the attendees and thanked them for their support of the organization’s mission to find a cure for this disease; their son Hawken was diagnosed with Duchenne 12 Anne and Chuck McMinn, owners of Vineyard 29 and Debra Miller, years ago at age 5. founder and CEO of CureDuchenne. “When our son was diagnosed, doctors told us to go home and love him since there was nothing that could be done for boys with Duchenne. We did love him but we also planned a bold attack to hit this disease with everything we had. Not just for Hawken but for all the boys around the world with Duchenne,” said Debra Miller. The live auction was quite exciting as there were about eleven different high ticketed items up for grabs. Of those that stood out were: One of a Kind Vintner’s Premier Collection – this is a collection of more than 30 large format bottles from Napa’s finest Vintners – yes, these are the magnum bottles! This package went for $24,000! Another standout was the U.S. Navy Aircraft Carrier Adventure – four lucky folks are flying onto a United States Navy Aircraft carrier off the coast of California somewhere to spend 24 hours immersed in their world and the best part? This experience went twice at $55,000 each! CureDuchenne-funded 7 research projects and those have advanced into human clinical trials, providing a ray of hope for Duchenne families around the world. CureDuchenne funded early research in three companies, Prosensa (recently acquired by BioMarin), Sarepta Therapeutics and PTC Therapeutics, each of these biotech companies will be applying for FDA approval for their Duchenne drugs this year. These drugs could be the first Theresa Jordan and Michael Barry Nilson and Luci Nilson. therapies ever approved for this deadly disease and the folks at this event Jordan couldn’t be more excited, they were ecstatic! Dr. Brenda Wong from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center was honored for her outstanding leadership in treating boys with Duchenne and for stewarding the clinical trials of promising Duchenne therapies. Napa In Newport featured the following wineries: Vineyard 29, Anomaly Vineyards, Barbour Vineyards, Broman Cellars, Cardinale, Clif Family, Cimarossa Howell Mountain, Crocker & Starr, Dana Estates, Darioush, David Arthur Vineyards, Davis Estates, D.R. Stephens Estate, Fairchild Wines, Fait-Main, Ferguson Crest, Gandona Winery, Gemstone Vineyard, Heitz Cellar, Hill Family Estate, Jamieson Ranch Vineyards, Kelly Fleming Wines, Lail Vineyards, Lede Family Wines, Memento Mori, Redmon Wines, Relic, Saint Helena Winery and Sequoia Grove. CureDuchenne is a national nonprofit organization located in Newport Beach dedicated to finding a cure for Duchenne, the most common and most lethal form of muscular dystrophy. As the leading genetic killer of young boys, Duchenne affects more than 300,000 boys worldwide. CureDuchenne has garnered international attention for its efforts to raise funds and awareness for Duchenne through venture philanthropy – for more info, please visit www. cureduchenne.orginformation visit www.pacificsymphony.org.

Ladera Ranch landmarks Architectural Edge Not so unassuming, the name “Bridgepark” Plaza was taken from its surrounding landmarks, the Sports Park and the Crown Valley Parkway Bridge. An ever popular destination, the plaza was designed to convey an old-fashioned town-and-country style shopping plaza complete with water tower near the brewery. What does Chaparral Elementary School remind you of? Rydell High of Grease Fame? Riverdale High from the Archies? The architecture of this popular elementary school was designed to invoke the past and yet, we know this elementary school could not be more equipped to welcome and prepare students for the future. Avendale Village Clubhouse reflects Early Americana small town life. The Plantation style clubhouse with its long veranda beckons you to stop by, take a dip in the pool and dry-off with an ice cold drink. Crown Valley Parkway Bridge Spanning the Arroyo Trabuco between Mission Viejo and Ladera Ranch, is the 800-foot long Crown Valley Parkway Bridge designed to reflect the traditional Pasadenastyle bridges of the early 1900s. The structure details subtle scoring with a sandblasted finish, sculpted concrete railings supporting classic column light poles and other architectural features. Heritage Oaks The California Heritage Oaks in Ladera Ranch are the symbol of solidarity, 225 years of history and renewed preservation. An entire team is working together to implement the appropriate maintenance program to ensure these trees thrive in the community. The planners of Ladera Ranch knew they needed to work around the native trees to preserve the environment and to continue to build upon its legacy. Throughout the master-planned community you will find these growing symbols anchored in various corners and hilltops enticing
you to establish your own roots in Ladera Ranch so that you can then spread your wings and fly. Hit the Trails Trails, trails, and more trails are interwoven throughout Ladera Ranch making this community a walker’s paradise. Discover ten miles of hiking and biking trails in and around the community. Ladera Ranch trails offer links to Orange County Regional riding, hiking and biking trails within Arroyo Trabuco, branching from Saddleback Mountain to Doheny Beach Neighborhood and back to pathways that connect to village clubs, schools and other public gathering spaces. Parks Here in Ladera Ranch everyone is within walking distance to any number of parks. Whether it’s a pocket park just down the street or a neighborhood park or a plunge just a few blocks away, each are unique and each add so much value. You’ve probably wondered how each of them was named. Names were inspired by location, topography, architectural styles and materials of the park as it relates to the village themes. Some good examples are: Canterra Plunge in Avendale named because of the canterra materials cognizant of the Spanish Colonial architecture, Hilltop Park (need we say more?), and our favorite, Founder’s Park - named in tribute to the first residents of Ladera Ranch. Pedestrian Bridge Old railway ties create the historic look and feel of Ladera Ranch’s pedestrian bridge and what a landmark and icon it has become. Constructed and shipped from Alabama in 3 pieces, the Crown Valley Parkway pedestrian bridge was built in 5 hours and provides safe passage between Oak Knoll and the rest of Ladera Ranch. Rose Garden In the corner of the Town Green is our community rose garden. Lemon trees, lavender and avariety of roses surround the garden to honor the
matriarch of the O’Neill/Moiso Family, Alice O’Neill (Moiso) Avery. Mrs. Avery personally advised on the plant selections and is very proud of the garden that bears her name. Take a moment to sit at the nearby park benches to drink in the beauty and serenity of the rose garden and all it has to offer.
disperse light from times gone by. Their statuesque necks are collard in detail and crowned with glass that diffracts light through its milky globe. These street lamps are not your run of the mill “city lights”. The lamps took 9 months to receive county approval for installment because of their unique design quality. Take a moment to
Sienna Botanica Riparian riverine elements of the Sienna Botanica... It is a unique “riverine” system incorporated into the community’s living environment. “Included into Sienna Botanica is a narrow, manmade seasonal creek bed, or riverine, that serves as both a scenic amenity and a natural filter for urban water runoff. Rain water and water from sprinklers, pools and other neighborhood sources is collected in a network of drains that are connected to the riverine within the Botanica. As it periodically and seasonally fills with water the riverine carries water from throughout the community on a course that passes through specially planted reeds and other flora, which serve as natural filters and water purifiers. Ultimately, the water makes its way to a large water retention basin and wetlands in the open space south of Ladera Ranch where it is further filtered.” Street Lights Make A Difference You may have not paid attention to the glow cast upon our local streets at night, but it’s subtle, soft, right? The gray-pebbled flecked columns
catch the detail and history of these symbolic “guardians of night”. Street Names Here in Ladera Ranch, some street names have a reason behind their selection. Some are named after O’Neill/Moiso family members - Benjamin, Sienna, Daisy, Sellas while other are historical references to grazing pastures of Ranch Mission Viejo - Cecil Pasture, Narrow Canyon, Windmill, Bell Pasture and other names are of flowers to recreate the quaint authenticity of the small towns like Corona Del Mar in Newport Beach. Water Basin The Ladera Ranch Wetlands Mitigation site, just west of Oak Knoll within the Arroyo, spans seven acres and includes more than five acres of native riparian plants, which collect, filter and organically treat urban water runoff. Through the use of natural wetlands, the site functions as a water retention basin and filtration station, similar to the Sienna Botanica and is designed to preserve the downstream water quality, protect the Trabuco Creek’s stability and promote on-site wetlands/riparian habitat restoration.

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below.

Trustor(s): HAIEDE GHORISHI, A MARRIED WOMAN AS HER SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY Recorded: 6/23/2005 as Instrument No. 2005000488178 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of ORANGE County, California; Date of Sale: 4/24/2015 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: On the front steps to the entrance of the Orange Civic Center, 300 E. Chapman, Orange, CA 92866 Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $627,467.61 The purported property address is: 1 RED LEAF LANE, LADERA RANCH, CA 92694 Assessor’s Parcel No.: 930-02-828 NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you
should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-573-1965 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-621570BF . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. QUALITY MAY BE CONSIDERED A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.
