    Best Place to Buy in OC for First Time Buyer

    As Stepping Up said about the tax rates, keep that in mind. Ladera has really high mello roos and HOA dues, and Aliso has mello roos. For Ladera you will be looking at a 45 minute drive <em>minimum </em>each way (it's about 40 to Irvine), each day. Is that really something you want, with gas...

    Being Punished for Doing Everything Right

    Graphrix can double-check this, but I'm seeing 2 REOs (8 Dauphine as you mentioned and 10 Anjou). There are also two preforeclosures - 18 Anjou and 8 Anjou.

    Foreclosure and distressed property topics

    I posted South County foreclosure numbers for the month of May, via foreclosure radar, <a href="http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pCfhpq6dW2rQyxebpHMQidQ&output=html&gid=0&single=true&range=A1:H20">right here.</a> If you go to the link it has it broken out by ZIP code. NODs were...

    What's going into escrow - Irvine and maybe some Tustin too

    The foreigners argument is not surprising whatsoever...and it's almost exactly the same arguments that were made in the 90s for how they were going to save the day. I'll believe it when I see it...

    Your thoughts on RealtyTrac?

    One other thing I forgot to mention that may be a big deal to some...RealtyTrac covers most if not all of the US...foreclosureradar is only for California.

    Your thoughts on RealtyTrac?

    Second what Graphrix said. I've used both and foreclosureradar is more up to date, and its user interface is much better to me (then again I've only used Realtytrac during a free trial, so I believe some of their features are disabled). If you're going to go with a service like this, I would say...

    Looks like the IPO family are going to be renters...

    Congrats on the decision, IPO. Here's to you taking advantage of the "pent-up demand" that is "through the roof" and causing "multiple offers to rule the day!"

    check out this overpriced mcmansion in talega

    MODM would probably be able to clarify better, but on that property I see a 1st loan of $2,382,100 (70%). No second at the time of purchase. Not in foreclosure (yet?).

    Orchard Hills Apartment - Garage Inspection

    I would gladly let them into our garage as part of that policy...I don't live in an apartment but in a condo, and there is a serious parking problem. Here the phenomenon of 1 car in a two car garage and the other side loaded with crap is rampant. Granted, there are two-car garages here and...

    What's going into escrow - Irvine and maybe some Tustin too

    I have noticed something similar in South County areas...many of the properties in foreclosure are not on the MLS for sale. By these I don't mean small NOD...we're talking 100% financing, HELOCed to oblivion properties that don't seem to stand a chance of not turning into foreclosures. And, a...

    Accredited - the last true subprime lender - just bit the dust.

    Good stuff, MODM..nice to see news being broken on the IHB forums.

    talega?

    Very cool Ahigh, thanks for posting. From what I've seen, there certainly is a lot of money out in Talega - but then again, there are plenty of pretenders too, and those unfortunately will be the ones dragging the values down when they foreclose and the properties turn over. I could never...

    Headlines...

    A bottom indeed. Here is the front page of today's Marketplace "section" in the Register. Kinda funny to me how the biggest (optimistic) headline does not go at all with the smaller headline on the right (foreclosures) - and really does not tell the full story about how RE sales are below '07...
