Hey everyone,
This is my first post, but been lurking around for the past couple months. I've been looking around for a home and it's been a crazy ride. I've been on the wait lists to Saratoga, San Mateo, Sienna, San Remo. Basically everywhere there were new homes being developed minus Portola Springs (its just a bit further than I'd really like to be). I've only been called once for a place in Sienna (figured it's too overpriced at the point I got the call). Noticed everything has been going up. Found this place in Northwood II. I like how it has a lot more sq footage relative to basically everything else I've seen. I'm not super thrilled about having 2 master suites, although I plan to rent out a couple of the rooms and I figure having the master suite would allow me to collect extra rent for that room. I'd be renting out 2 rooms in the house to help me cover a lot of the mortgage etc.

However, just got an email today from Cypress Village. Granted I haven't put myself on their list (not sure if I can yet) I like some of the homes they have to offer, they're just across the street from Tustin II. But the kicker is really when and how much will the house be if I waited.
56 Shadowplay ended up being far more than list price. Looking at mid 800's.. Just wanted to get all your insightful input. I've been lurking around for some time and there's really some Irvine experts. I'm still a novice looking for some advice.
