With the new iPhones coming out in a few weeks thought I would look at the screen sizes. My primary consideration is how a HD video (16:9 aspect ratio) would appear on the phone in landscape position as this is how most people watch. 4.09? x 2.30? (4.69? diagonal) for the iPhone 8 4.79? x 2.69...

I would also like to see a comparison of Martin?s sales price vs everybody else - for similar properties of course. Bet his listings sell for more in a shorter period of time. As USCT always says ?time is money!!?. What percentage of real estate agents in Irvine are incompetent? Maybe I should...

Martin?s success is based on a highly skilled process. Notice how all of his listings sell quickly and close to or over listing price. Excellent pricing combined with excellent presentation yields results! There might be some luck involved - maybe 0.001%. About the same probability of me winning...

We were big fans of Northpark when it opened back in 1999 or so. Really liked the community so we bought! Then 9/11 came and maybe 6 months later the real estate bubble began to form - some max ROI for sure! Two houses later I seem to be giving my real estate income all back to IP 😂 Best of...

Hmm...bought for $727K three years ago and up for sale for only $800K. After subtracting your fees (most reasonable in the business) not sure the ROI would be Belly approved : ) Oh wait, I forgot, usually you sell them for more than list! The side yard with the zero lot line seems much bigger...

Info sheets from today's grand opening. Good attendance with an eye-balled 60% Asian and 40% Caucasian crowd. Gourmet coffee and macaroons.

Think is the first resale in OH3 (closed in February??) https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/224-Oceano-92602/home/145683227 Home was listed on the Phase 1 price sheet at $1,169,527 which obviously included most of the preselected options so all they added was the flooring - back yard still hasn't...

Here are the latest price sheets and site availability for Como and Terra. Como has sold 30 out of 35 home sites. At the end of January they had sold 17 out of 22 so in 4 1/2 months they have sold 13 units. Prices have increased $60K for Plan 1 and $80K for Plan 2 since late January. Terra has...

Here are the latest price sheets and site availability for Verdi and Lago. Lago has sold 28 out of 36 home sites. Prices have increased $75K for Plan 1 and $125K for Plan 2 since the grand opening. Just so-so sales thus far. Isn't this the plan they are building at Barcelona at Olivos Village...

Had a few minutes to spare so I dug up the Eastwood re-sales chart below. A = Active, P = Pending, S = Sold, X = expired. Not that familiar with Eastwood hoods but if you're interested you can check some of the sales out to see what re-salers are making or losing.

Crap... I thought this was going to be a debate between Jollibe and Yang?s Braised Chicken fans. But NO! Am I the only one who thinks IHO and BTB sound like a married couple? Solution is simple. Get a room - kiss and makeup and everyone lives happily ever after. Lost my appetite just thinking...

In 2012 Irvine had 223,870 people with 104,257 registered voters. Currently Irvine's population is 266,122 so maybe there are 123,939 registered voters. But only 24,676 voters cast their ballots on Measure B. That's about 20% so most in Irvine were not interested. Thought I saw that including...

Welcome to the TI hood. No such thing as a dumb question but expect to get quite a few dumb answers. Hopefully you lurked around the forum for a bit to get a feel of the variety of personalities and biased opinions (without regard to any of those pesky facts) you will receive. Quite a few really...

Memorial Day was set up as a day to honor those who died while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces and has evolved to be a day of remembrance and gratitude for all who served and their families. I'm sure every TI member will join me in thanking all who served and protected our country. And thank...

That's why they call you "Mr. King" - only reason to have an open house is to start a bidding war! We seriously considered this track when it initially came out (albeit it was in Stonegate East with a different name) and can attest to the fact you can't hear your neighbors. The wife and I were...

There haven?t been enough resales to draw any conclusions about EW appreciation rates yet. Traditionally you can actually pay more for a non upgraded new home than an existing upgraded home in the same tract. Drawing conclusions on builder price increases for resales is like comparing...

Irvinehomeowner opinion is truly ?expert?! 3 car garage, walking distance to the 99 Ranch Plaza (FCB paradise) and walking distance to the Target Plaza, mello roose going away or gone = a winner. Of course winners don?t come cheap.

Really like the interior decor scheme - almost matches my home so naturally I think it will sell for more than asking! If I show my USC alumni card, will the buyer give me 10% off? Us Trojans need to look out for one another.

I think your last statement probably answered your own question. But GEEZ....you have only GIVEN one thank you! I?m looking forward to receiving your second thank you so I can return the favor. PS who the hell has a basement in Irvine?

Another fine job - easy prediction is that it will sell over list price within a week. Sellers love you but I'm not sure I would want to buy one of your listings because it will go for top dollar and I'm looking for a "bargain"! Good luck finding that in Irvine :(
