Well out of all the places in OC, Irvine would not be the area that is "safe" from wildfires especially based on it's history.

Why are we targeting FCBs here?

why buy new? why not buy a plot of land and rebuild with your own design? 7M can easily give you that flexibility. Plus, older homes are built better.

I wouldn’t buy in OH with 7M+

Wonder if home insurance companies will consider this a fire zone like other OH villages.

I sniff more CA tax increases to help rebuild the cities that have been decimated.

You will need to also factor in the HOA rules and get approval by them. FYI

Is it even a good thing to live across retail? It’s going to be so congested and noisier than other areas. It’s worse than living near a clubhouse.

the community pools can be quite dirty and y'all know what happens in that pool that keeps it warm. it's not a heater btw.

The first two words you mentioned was “it could”. Am I misunderstanding something?

None of what you said matters which president it is.

no, it does not matter.

Define bad. Also ask yourself how many ways can you learn 1+1?

Why are people shocked that elevate sells better? Let’s not act like we don’t know who the target buyers are in Irvine. FCB. Most likely will not live in the place or will flip after closing escrow. I like it this way, I enjoy having neighbors that I can chat with and build relationships with...

Buying a 3M+ cookie cutter home is a questionable thing to do. There are better options if you're going to spend 3M+. You can literally buy a piece of land in Hawaii for 1-1.5m and do a custom build with 3M+ easily

I call that an observation, not racism. 🙂

if we are going to scrutinize a city because of slightly higher temps, I think I'm not worried compared to toxic soils, wildfire risks, MR, location to landfill that most newer Irvine villages need to deal with. :)

Most buyers that are paying 3M+ for homes in these new villages in Irvine don't even live there. They use it as a way to park their money overseas.

Temperatures between Irvine/LF aren't going to vary that much. I'm not exactly sure if you're talking about areas near foothill ranch. If so, anything above QH and Turtles are going to be the same as LF. Quite frankly they're all the same, Turtle probably has more trees to cool things down.

You guys are all making me not regret buying Irvine at all at this rate. Lake Forest doesn’t sound that bad after all.
