U.S. Black Belt Center

Walnut – “The average person does not earn a black belt. We take the average person and allow them to discover that they are way more than average!”

At U.S. Black Belt Center you can be assured that all students will learn.

The martial arts have become a leader in bringing families together in an era when individual family members seem to be doing their own thing. Martial arts offers you an opportunity to share the benefits of training with those you love, while developing important quality-time together. And although you work towards your Black Belt together, each member of the family will also discover a valuable personal benefit from his or her training.

For children, following instructions will become second nature. This is a huge plus for any child who has ever taken martial arts, as well as for the parents! If your child has trouble following instructions, this alone is reason enough to give the program a try.  A sense of respect will be instilled in your child. Although martial art is a contact sport, respect is ALWAYS the most important principle enforced. Your child will develop a love for self-respect followed by a desire to respect others – EVEN when this respect is not reciprocated. The desire to succeed will manifest itself. For loving parents like you, being able to see your children do well in life is truly the greatest reward that you can hope for.

Unfortunately, many kids today not only lack the desire to succeed, but also the self-confidence and belief that they can accomplish anything they set out to do. No parent wants to see their child have a low self-esteem at such an early age.

The great thing about this martial arts program is that it’s not only designed to teach your child how to defend themselves – it also boosts confidence and self-esteem.

Success in martial arts does not require athletic skills. However, through your training, you will develop key characteristics to enhance your athletic skills for other sports of interests. Benefits such as better hand/eye coordination, endurance, and physical fitness can help you improve in any sport.

And even more importantly, U.S. Black Belt Center programs are good for all ages, genders, fitness levels and abilities.

During the summer, students and their families have the opportunity to travel to Asia. The package includes meals, tour, transportation, hotel and Taekwondo activities.

To get further information or where to register you may call 1-888-763-0222, visit in person at 20781 Amar Rd. Suite 7 Walnut, CA 91789. Cross streets are Amar and Grand Ave, next to Verizon. You can also visit their website at www.BBCblackbelt.com.

Inland Empire – Are your air conditioning and heating units ready when you are? In this summer heat, it can be frustrating to not be able to cool your house down. And it’s not just your air conditioners; cooler temperature will be here soon enough. Is your heater ready to take the chill off your home and keep your family comfortable after sitting dormant all summer?

According to Brian Weaver, owner of BWR Heating and Cooling, maintenance is the key to keeping your heaters and air conditioners in top form and ready to meet your needs. You can actually save money in the long run by ensuring that your systems are proactively taken care of, and not waiting until they need to be repaired or even replaced.

“I am your local go-to guy for all your heating, cooling and whole house fan needs. Whether you need repair, replacement, or maintenance, we’ll be there for you,” says Weaver.

Established in 1998, BWR offers start-to-finish solutions for every project. Conveniently located in Norco and serving the Inland Empire, they also give back to the communities they serve.

BWR has sponsored local sports teams at both the recreational and high school levels. The company has also given donations to Corona-Norco Unified School District (CNUSD) in order to purchase needed equipment for their schools. BWR has also sponsored different events for the Norco Horse Week Rodeo, and been a participant in local parades. They recently donated a vehicle to the CNUSD Auto Shop program, so students can learn valuable hands-on repair and maintenance skills.

Whether your needs are residential or commercial, BWR provides installation, maintenance, upgrades and complete repair services on all makes and models. And don’t forget about duct cleaning. Dirty vents can cause dirt, pollen, dust – and even mildew – to circulate in your home and reduce efficiency; built up dryer vents can even become a fire hazard. BWR can clean your ventilation system and keep your entire system in working order.

BWR is a registered HERO (Home Energy Renovation Opportunity) contractor, and they are dedicated to providing the very best in products and services to help homeowners become more energy efficient and lower utility costs.

BWR now offers Quiet Cool (whole house fan systems) that can cool your entire house by up to 30 degrees. This system is more energy efficient than a traditional air conditioning unit, and works by pulling cooler air from outside indoors. Ask BWR if this system is right for you.

With the heat of summer still intent upon us, get cooled off, not ripped off, and call BWR today – they will not be undersold. You can reach them at 1-800-AC-REPAIR, (951) 377-6333, or visit bwrheatingandcooling.com for more information.

Business Feature: “Sell Your Casa” With Gil Rivera

 By Sarah Armijo

: Gil Rivera offers a 4% Total Commission for Sellers. His current promotion is “We will SELL your house in 6 weeks at highest value!” For more information, go to sellyourcasa.com, call (909) 967-4525. Call today for a free market evaluation!

Southern California – In this day and age, it’s important to know all aspects of your business. For Gil Rivera from sellyourcasa.com, he definitely knows every aspect of buying and selling a home. He is a reliable, experienced, and an affordable Realtor, Broker, and Certified Appraiser.

Rivera sells houses, condos, and 2-4 unit investment properties in Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. He also does real estate appraisals for banks, estates, trusts, divorces, attorneys, refinances, home purchases, and upon death of a homeowner for tax purposes. Rivera also has assistants that work with him who are fluent in Spanish and Chinese, which helps him to reach people of different dialects all over Southern California.

Rivera is in his 20th year of business and has SOLD homes in 26 different cities in Southern California, so his coverage area is expansive. Rivera said, “I can do this because I appraise homes in so many different cities and have the knowledge and expertise associated with your marketplace. Give me an opportunity and you will surely be happy you did!” In Feb. 2013, Rivera listed a home in Monterey Park worth $470,000. Rivera received 53 offers in seven days and SOLD it for $515,000!

Rivera’s philosophy is to “treat my clients the way I want to be treated.” In fact, Rivera said that he became a Realtor because he did not like the way his Realtor treated him when he was buying his home. Rivera shows respect for his clients at all times. He listens to what they say, so that he can better serve them.

Rivera also does not push his Buyers into a sale. Rivera said, “I always tell Buyers: ‘You will know right away when we walk into the house that’s meant for you.’ Whether it takes a week or months, my Buyers will always be satisfied with their purchase and never pressured into it.”

Rivera’s Sellers love the fact that he offers a discounted commission, but with full service. Rivera offers a 4% Total Commission for Sellers. This includes 2.5% to the Buyer’s Agent and 1.5% to Rivera’s office. Most Realtors negotiate a 6% commission because they have to split the fees with their brokerage. But, Rivera passes on the savings to the Seller. This will save Sellers thousands of dollars in commission fees. His team offers full service for that discounted rate including high quality flyers, professional photos, open houses (as allowable by Seller), and extended advertising coverage on the Internet and social media.

Rivera’s current promotion is “We will SELL your house in six weeks at highest value! We only request a listing period of six weeks, while most other Realtors ask for six month listings.” Rivera says that “Buyers need to know that they do not need to pay their Realtor any fees for representing them on a purchase. The Buyer’s agent is paid by the Seller, not the Buyer.

Rivera absolutely loves what he does. He loves selling homes to Buyers because he helps fulfill their dreams of home ownership. His favorite part of selling homes to is transferring the keys to excited Buyers. Rivera loves selling homes for Sellers because he enjoys the uniqueness that each property offers and selling the positive attributes of the home. Rivera says, “Many agents spend their time showing houses….I SELL them!”

Check out Rivera’s website at http://www.SellYourCasa.com to see how many different cities Rivera has sold in and for additional information about Rivera’s company.

For questions about your Business Insurance Policy, Grace Buencamino with George L Brown Insurance Agency can be reached at (909) 973-8233 or GBuencamino@georgebrowninsurance.com.

BY MICHAEL ARMIJO

Inland Empire – When Daniel started his carpet cleaning business six years ago, he had to get insurance. So he did, and he faithfully paid his premiums every month. Unfortunately, Daniel’s business was burglarized, but he had no need to worry; he was fully covered and he had never missed a payment in nearly six years. Then Daniel found out some very disturbing news.
Daniel’s insurance company gladly filed his claim. The reports were all in order and the estimate of $16,839 was right in line with specifications. But Daniel only received a check for $3,000. He had no idea his policy coverage for theft or fire had a limit of $3,500, with a $500 deductible.

“It’s common for a business, especially a small business, to be under-insured,” said Grace Buencamino, a longtime broker at George L. Brown Insurance. “You need a proactive agent who will periodically go over your coverage with you to ensure your business is adequately covered.”

Buencamino also points out that it’s not always the client’s fault for not knowing their policy limits.

“Sometimes a business will outgrow their coverage,” she says. “I’ve seen businesses who thought they had adequate coverage. The business owner didn’t realize that after five years, the company had acquired more equipment, increasing their Business Property from $3,000 to $20,000. To avoid my clients being under-insured, I do an annual review of their policy. Changes in Business Property can be discovered during this review and the policy limits can be changed at very little cost.”

Buencamino also said that by working closely with the business owner, she can get a better understanding of their needs and work with them to limit their exposures. She encourages clients to contact her if they make any changes to their business that may affect their current coverage.

One advantage of consulting with a broker, they can find the best priced insurance to meet your needs, whether they are “rate driven” or “coverage driven”. A broker can shop multiple carriers and bring you the options you deserve.

Most of us don’t give much thought about our dryers unless they are broken. However, a poorly maintained dryer could be a potential fire hazard. According to a report, “Clothes Dryer Fires in Residential Buildings,” that was issued by FEMA’s U.S. Fire Administration in 2010, the failure to clean dryer vents is the leading factor contributing to the ignition of clothes dryer fires in residential buildings. Dust, fiber, and lint are, by far, the leading items first ignited in clothes dryer fires. Most of the lint that is created from clothes tumbling in the dryer is caught in the filter but it also accumulates in the dryer and in the vents. Lint is a very combustible material and as it builds up it can overheat and a possible fire can ensue.Angiel Air is a heating, ventilation and air conditioning service that is located in Eastvale at 12672 Limonite Ave, Suite 3E-199. Of their many services, Angiel Air offers dryer vent cleaning.

Eastvale: Family Tradition Means Insurance Expertise

BY MIKE ARMIJO

Chino Hills –- Most little girls say they want to be a doctor, lawyer, school teacher or a princess while growing up, but Grace Buencamino wanted to be like her daddy, an insurance producer.

“It wasn’t that I was exposed to someone who just pushed paper or punched a clock, my father helped people with important needs and helped business owners stay protected during tough times,” said Grace, who watched her father do such things for over 30 years.

“Insurance runs in our family.  I grew up learning the industry and spent all of my high school summers working with him,” she said.  “It was a great time in my life.  As I grew, I learned to help others, to be knowledgeable in an effort to help those in need.”

She’s not just filled with summers of insurance experience; Grace has over ten years of Human Resources experience and ten years of Property Management experience. She’s also worked with employers on strategies to minimize on-the-job injuries. This has given her firsthand knowledge of the importance of proper workers compensation and harassment/wrongful termination (EPLI) coverage.

Knowledge in the property management field has helped her address the concerns of risks and exposures that business and property owners can have. Her California Department of Insurance Resident Insurance Producer License for Property and Casualty allows Grace to legally and thoroughly provide expertise and experience.

“Every business is unique and policies should not be “One Size Fits All”.  I believe a company needs to be evaluated and exposures assessed before presenting the best possible, most cost-effective solution for your business,” Grace said.  She prides herself on knowing which policy covers you for your specific needs, as some agents aren’t sure and you end up with coverage that’s costly and unnecessary.

But her main goal is to assist others in need. “I enjoy helping others. Insurance allows me to do this.  I work with business owners to manage their risks and exposures, giving them the peace of mind that their business is protected.”

Grace’s “off-field” activities prove her commitment to service above self.  “I am here to serve the community.  I am a member of Christian Business Partners, have volunteered at several schools in the Chino Valley Unified School District, volunteer with the Chino Hills Community Foundation, and a Woman’s Care Center in Chino.”

Besides helping those in need and continuing her father’s legacy in a “Service First” industry by offering affordable coverage, even free evaluations, Grace says, “Our agency offers complementary policy evaluations. We have established relationships with some of the nation’s largest and finest carriers as preferred agents.”  Preferred Agents have benefited their clients with specialized programs and competitive pricing.  “Please feel free to contact me directly at (909) 973-8233 if you would like an evaluation of your current coverage and premium,” she adds.

Although the company was established in 1941 and is now located in Orange County, Grace has worked in the Inland Empire and San Gabriel Valley for years.  “I am your local agent and I’ve lived in Chino Hills since 1997.  Clients can always expect personalized, professional service from me and everyone at our agency.”

Established in 1941, George L Brown Insurance Agency continues to work with small to medium sized businesses, and manage their risks by providing comprehensive business packages, general and professional liability, property coverage, workers compensation, bonds, E&O, D&O, EPLI and commercial auto coverage.

George L. Brown Insurance Agency is located at 1005 Calle Recodo, San Clemente, CA 92673.  Grace Buencamino can be reached at (909) 973-8233 (Direct); (949) 361-1400 (Office); or by email: gbuencamino@georgebrowninsurance.com;License #OH30972.
