Term Definition
Closing
Also known as settlement, this is the time at which the property is formally sold and transferred from the seller to the buyer; it is at this time that the borrower takes on the loan obligation, pays all closing costs, and receives title from the seller.
Closing Costs
Customary costs above and beyond the sale price of the property that must be paid to cover the transfer of ownership at closing; these costs generally vary by geographic location and are typically detailed to the borrower after submission of a loan application.
Condominium
A form of ownership in which individuals purchase and own a unit of housing in a multi-unit complex; the owner also shares financial responsibility for common areas.
Conventional Loan
A private sector loan, one that is not guaranteed or insured by the U.S. government.
Cooperative (Co-Op)
Residents purchase stock in a cooperative corporation that owns a structure; each stockholder is then entitled to live in a specific unit of the structure and is responsible for paying a portion of the loan.

Dining Reviews

  • Arizona Pizza Company, 3 stars
    The Glendale location of the Arizona Pizza Company is the back-East chain's first foray into its namesake state. It's basically an expansive sports bar, complete with servers dressed like referees and more than two dozen televisions tuned in to all kinds of sports events. But the menu is far more than just wings and burgers.
  • Pho Ao Sen, 3.5 stars
    This upscale Vietnamese restaurant, one of the prettiest in town, offers pho and other Vietnamese classics, as well as a handful of unique and utterly delicious specialties.
  • Pollo Campero, 3 stars
    Guatemalan-based Pollo Campero offers fried and grilled chicken. Grilled chicken is a thing of beauty: skin on, a little charred in spots, served with wedges of lime. The chicken burrito is a chubby roll of tortilla wrapped around bits of chicken, cheese, peas, chopped carrots, beans and rice.
  • Shimogamo Japanese Restaurant, 4 stars
    Traditional yet contemporary Shimogamo offers sushi and traditional Japanese dishes alongside modern Japanese specialties, including BBQ beef tongue, panko-breaded fried oysters with tonkatsu sauce and miso-marinated black cod. Don't miss inspired sushi rolls, such as the Shimogamo and the tsunami.
  • Phoenicia Mediterranean Grill, 3 stars
    More streamlined and modern-looking than its original Tempe location, this small Gilbert outpost for Middle Eastern food offers all the basics - hummus, tabouleh, falafel, gyros, lamb and baklava - at reasonable prices. For a real bargain, check out the all-you-can-eat lunch buffet ($8.99 per person), offered Fridays-Sundays.
