    Opinions on Laguna Audubon (Aliso Viejo)

    We rented in 1990 on white pelican in a cul de sac nice home 4 bed I think So LA is part of laguna unified. If your talking about that school district I went from elementary jr. high then the HS. LA is nice way more developed than when I lived there.

    I'm not sure if this can be a problem

    I would not worry about it too much. It?s not a crack it?s a knot in the lumber. It looks like a Simpson strong wall (the metal thing) right next to it, plus there?s another stud tied into the one with the knot. Btw a zoomed out picture would help.

    Will Amazon choose Irvine?

    Irvine Spectrum!? How is there space over there? I thought campus means large chunk of land with 2 or 3 story buildings spread out on 1 giant piece of property. Bren from what it looks like want to have it all spread out in high rises. Why not just build ginormous skyscrapers and just stuff em...

    VRBO / AIRBNB - starting to show up in Irvine

    City of Irvine enforces short term rentals. City of Irvine says NO short term rentals within the city, also the city supersedes any hoa they have way more muscle and clout to cite/red tag the property. I personally don't want 10-15 different people every weekend with  loud music trash and...

    What happened to YellowFever?

    He was a sensationalist love the shock and awe loved to push buttons. It was only a matter of time until some got fed up. I took all his posts with a grain of salt I didn't look into it to much.

    builder quality comparison

    The most honest answer is go figure it out yourself it's part of due diligence, what I might find quality you might think is junk, some homes have fiberglass showers which I do not like but maybe you don't seem to mind.

    Pocket door for master bath?

    Welcome to the 1970's hahah it blows me away that home builders are still using pocket doors in 2016. In my opinion it's a crappy design they end up coming off the track or they rub over time plus not very good at keeping noise out. I guess if it's your only option short of reframing for a real...

    Garage conversion to office/playroom?

    There's a reason for building code and permits and code enforcement, so dipsh!t$ don't just decide to do weekend additions willy nilly style.
