So dumb, promise something that is doable like a 10-15% annual return and you'll get a lot of people's money.

The answer to that is NO because Irvine is land locked that is mostly built out and unlike anyone other city in the US it has the backing of The Irvine Company which owns a ton of apartments, retail, office, and industrial space so they are incentivized to keep the Irvine perception of Irvine...

The number of buyers really begins to drop off when you get to $3m+.

They are overpriced for the most part and will sit unless the builders reduce prices. There aren't as many $5m+ buyers as there was before this year so it'll be a while before all of those homes are sold.

Yeah because raising the listing price while motivate buyers to put an offer in when a lower price didn't. That is one of the dumbest pricing strategies out there. Price it right out the gate and be done with it because time is money.

I'll have to give these a try with my 4 egg lunches. (y)

Panda just uses Talk Irvine to try to get some new buyers for Johns Creek.

The issue with a lot of Irvine listings is that sellers/listing agents are still delusional using 2024 pricing to come up with the list price while market prices are down 5%+ from last year.

The market is currently a weak buyers market. The sense of urgency to buy is gone for most all buyers and since inventory levels have increased coupled with many price cuts many buyers are being very patient and waiting for a price or two before submitting an offer. I got a buyer into escrow...

And what's the criteria for being a top 10 place to live? I wouldn't live in any of those cities listed above.

My dad did but he sold it.
