    Hi ! I am on the waiting list for the Vine now. I am wanting to see if you've heard back from the Vine and how long you have been on the waiting list.  Have you heard from Avalon? And how long has it been? Thank you, Shawna

    What about the tax write off each year? The investor is having someone else pay down their principal while the property appreciates all while bringing tax write off benefits.  Sure it's a gamble with the tenant and repairs that may come up but such is life...

    Rental Market in Irvine

    The rental market is pretty saturated. I rent an apartment at Centerpointe. I moved in Nov 2015 and a one bedroom (851 sq ft) 4th floor was $2155. Fast forward 11 months and market rent for this unit is $2480.  It's just crazy !
