Broadcom moving to GP

Fair points. I think my big thing when I look at those older homes vs. the brand new home is there are absolutely certain things about the more recent model homes (say last 7 years) that are really great. I love the way the kitchen / great rooms are in the newer homes and it is hard to find some of those in the older homes, however, a lot of stuff in FH seems to have that. Also, while the houses need some improving, I kind of look at it as the homes you buy also need a good chunk of upgrades, which if you applied to the home you bought would relatively even out. Of course that wouldn't include things like piping, new air conditioner or any sort of major roof issue.eclipxe said:
Speaking of which, I'm a little curious. How long do roofs usually last and what is the typical cost to reroof a tile house?

A clubhouse, a staffed pool facility (pool, spa, kid pool, showers, etc.) Tennis courts, basketball courts, roller hockey courts, playgrounds, baseball diamond / dugouts, soccer fields, hiking trails.... 4 parks within the community. For someone buying in the Tuscany development, they have miniature golf (I'm jealous), 2 additional pools, workout room, another clubhouse...

You are correct, they shut down their Baseband mobile chips because none of their competitors want to acquire it, even pennies on the dollar valuation. Last month they announced they will be cutting 1/5 of their total workforce because of this decision.
Because of these adjustments, Broadcom should remain healthy and profitable throughout 2013.
OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
BROADCOM AND HERITAGE FIELDS EL TORO, LLC REACH AGREEMENT ON PURCHASE OF LAND FOR NEW CORPORATE CAMPUS
BROADCOM CAMPUS TO BE FIRST COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT AT GREAT PARK NEIGHBORHOODS IN IRVINE, CALIF.
IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Broadcom Corporation (NASDAQ: BRCM), a global innovation leader in semiconductor solutions for wired and wireless communications, today announced that one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries has executed an agreement with Heritage Fields El Toro, LLC to purchase land to build a new corporate campus in Irvine, Calif. Broadcom's campus will be the first commercial development at Great Park Neighborhoods, a mixed-use, master-planned community managed by FivePoint Communities. For more news, visit Broadcom's Newsroom.
"We are thrilled to move forward with Broadcom's new corporate campus in the city of Irvine. Owning land and building a campus provides Broadcom with favorable economics and flexibility for the long-term," said Scott McGregor, Broadcom's President and Chief Executive Officer. "This approach also has the benefit of enabling us to design an environment for our workforce where we can prioritize collaboration and sustainability."
Broadcom plans to initially build a 1.1 million square foot campus with the opportunity to expand to up to 2 million square feet. The campus will feature a layout designed for Broadcom's unique culture of innovation and engineering excellence. It will have sustainability at its core, with development labs and open office workspaces designed to minimize energy use and maximize flexibility.
"Great Park Neighborhoods is a dynamic community that will include a variety of uses - including homes, shops and, now a Fortune 500? company - to create a unique neighborhood around one of the world's great metropolitan parks," said FivePoint Communities CEO Emile Haddad. "FivePoint is pleased to work with Broadcom as it builds a state-of-the-art campus that will meet the needs of its employees for years to come and further enhance the entrepreneurial spirit of Irvine."
Subject to customary closing conditions, the land purchase is expected to close in Q1 2015. The campus is being designed by the international design firm M. Arthur Gensler Jr. & Associates, Inc. and built by DPR Construction. Once the land acquisition closes, Broadcom anticipates construction will begin in the first half of 2015 and be ready for initial occupancy in 2017.
