There is another home on sale on the same exact street for $1.9M: https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/101-Diamondback-92618/home/112718985 If you calculate the average sqft for both listings, it is about $565.  Using that number, 113 Diamondback estimate would be $1.81M but it has a smaller lot...

They are looking for $450k profit in less than two years  :o  How can even an agent agree to list it at this price?  Their time will be wasted for several open houses until they cut the price by $200k or even more. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/113-Diamondback-92618/home/109742851

They offered me Plan 3 in phase 1 and I said No  ;D Here is little bit about us: We were in the market for a 4br+ Detached or SFR in Irvine specifically in CW, EW, or SG. Then, I heard about Barcelona and started following the development since the beginning of this year.  We were preapproved...

They called me twice and invited me as well.  I was in the first 100 in their priority list but I'm not going since with these prices, it doesn't make sense anymore but I'm sure their offices will be very crowded Saturday morning.

You can't go near the wall next to Jamboree a.k.a Berlin wall ;) Huntley model homes are on the other side near Park Ave.  You can however visit Sheldon model homes that are close to the wall and hear the noise from there and multiple it by 100.  There are security guards there to check papers...

I'm trying to figure out if Sheldon would be a good place to live and here is what I know so far thanks to TI Community: Pros: Location Cons: Location All that noise and smoke coming from Jamboree Chance of getting killed by a drunk driver in your living room All the smell from Garbage...
