They can buy here all they want and drive up my home value as long as they keep their bad manners and bad driving over seas.

Are you building a structure to your home like a CA room? If so it takes 3-4 weeks for HOA to approve. But if it's a simple plan then less. What got me was the fees, $200 for the front, $200 for the back, and $300 for any architectural change + the $500 deposit. Also, if you do an architectural...

Has anybody had or have an issue with brown widow spiders. I've killed at least 8 inside and outside my garage. Also, I have seen a few dead mice and live ones as well. So close those garages.

From OH to UCI, which is a straight down from Culver, takes close to 25 minutes. Time being around 5pm. I think the Culver is the busiest street.

Be up front with the ladies. Tell them what you want and check in with them on a 3 times/week basis. Show them that you are very interested and that will go a far way with the ladies. Go in there often enough to where they remember you by your first and last name, much better than the FOBS that...

Thanks Patrione, but I have a modem wifi combo. Moving this shouldn't effect my tv signal? Is it a different line?

Has anyone tried placing an extender in the loft area? Or is the apple air the best route?

Thanks for the heads up Aquabliss. I too have a plan 2 and I get no signal in the 1st floor bedroom. I thought about extenders but I have heard that they don't work too well.  So you're telling me this extender from Costco works well by leaving it in the loft? I was just thinking about doing a...

It's viewable from the very end on the Quarter Horse cul de sac and the open ended street. The fireworks are just over the ridge at the Groves.

I am TUSD. I think the IUSD side is even more Asian, specifically Chinese. For the Chinese these are relatively cheap. Homes in China go for far more for far less and they are almost like condos. On top of that much of what they buy are considered leases since everything is state owned. As for...

Most of what is going on at Quarter Horse is that everybody is getting their landscaping done at the same time. A month ago it was around 6 homes getting landscaped now it's down to 3. Also some of the families have yet to get through the junk in their garage so they park their cars on the...

I am in the process of waiting for an approval for my CA room. We had to pay $500 just for the HOA to review since it is a structural improvement. It's been 2 weeks and still nothing.

I upgraded to the espresso. I think the upgrade is worth it. Problem is that if you upgrade the cabinets, you have to upgrade the rails, which can be expensive.

Getting a conservatory was a no brainer for me. I initially signed up for the CA room but I realized that for $5000 more the value of my home increases. To me the conservatory can serve the same purpose as a CA room. They are basically the same size. The only thing I didn't like about the...

I was told that the first phases were opened so quick because IPAC had a certain number of sales they had to reach for their fiscal year. I guess it all comes down to their accounting practices. But if they tell you it well take 5-6 months to COE then that number is close. I closed on time.
