Hello TI Looking for my parents a specific kind of carpenter referral One of the bathrooms upstairs had a previous plumbing issue.  It's an older home so some of the wood around the toilet needs replacing.  The plumber said I need someone who has experience in both removing a toilet as well as...

It's all about doing your own homework.  I've called many of those yelp places before and I agree they usually suck.  They don't really have any special pricing and you can usually get the same deal from just going into a dealership.  Even though I usually use brokers, I do some of my own...

Long post warning, PM me if you have additional questions or need a broker As irvinehomeowner said, put as little down on a lease Leasing vs owning...you pay essentially the depreciation on a car instead of the whole car price.  The two factors they use is residual (the car manufacturer's set...

FYI TollBrothers/Shea prepaid the MR for Baker Ranch.  So there are MR just paid by the builder instead of the homeowner.  That's why there's many posts within this thread of other baker ranch owners hoping more of us going to the board meetings etc to get a new school built to use our MR toward...

If I had to give 2 reasons, MR and School. Stonegate total tax is quite high like 1.8 or 1.9% while Eastwood is 1.3 or 1.4% in comparison.  I'm a simple guy.  If prices were the same, I'd go for the Eastwood equivalent.  2nd school, Eastwood is zoned to Northwood which is a for sure winner. ...

+1 on all points.  I live in stonegate currently and have friends in Woodbury and been to many open houses in Woodbury so I know the location well.  Woodbury, in my opinion, is a mess planning wise.  It feels very congested, tons of attached condos and their detached products are like courtyard...

Leave us alone My_Alter_Ego You must be part of the "Fake News"  Seems even TalkIrvine is not immune to the fake media

$10k is RIDICULOUS just have the builder install the cans for the recessed.  And just go to Costco and buy the bulbs.  It's like less than $20 for a few bulbs.  And just self install it.  Just make sure it's prewired.

I was younger at the time so budget was an issue.  For like the cheapest possible route, I was able to do my stonegate home with half cheap concrete and the rest the red bricks from a professional.  It was under $5k.  The concrete was cut into little sectionals so it didn't look like complete...

a good wifi extender will work wonders for most daily internet operations.  I'm a hardcore xbox gamer and I have no issues with extenders and the router is on the bottom floor with a wired connection via extender.  I guess if you do massive downloads then maybe you want to have something better

I'm not good at the "search" button but someone mentioned here a discussion about how the Tustin unified school district homes actually appreciated better than the IUSD.  I think it was a husband and wife and the wife liked the TUSD home more but the husband bought the IUSD instead due to fear...

This question is too open ended.  The MR factor and the sq of the house/detached/attached all have to be factors especially since you cap it at $900k.  We can say $900k all day, but a $900k in eastwood is much different than one at Beacon Park.  Appreciation best advice? Buy old resale before...

#flamesuit on! So yeah I agree with everyone else, this is a bad bad bad idea I think.  To be clear, I know the homeless have their struggles and I emphasize with them but the idea of building this structure in Irvine doesn't seem well thought out, especially at Great Park.  I don't like to...

I can give some input on the Kumon method as I took some classes growing up.  I'm not that old so I'm sure Kumon hasn't changed much Kumon was very repetitive, essentially doing the same thing until you did it faster and faster.  There wasn't much other things taught.  Class was basically...

I'd probably call the police (youth) and have them join the meeting as well...to show your intent and how serious you are.  I hate to sound American but I'd sue the kid and his parents as well.  Best of luck

Agree 100% LED lights everywhere are the best investment #2 Change your roofing into a energy one, you get a nice refund as well.  It's A HUGE DIFFERENCE in your bill.  I rarely use the AC during the day and it's not as cold in the night.  Highly recommend #2  get an energy saver TV Bill never...

Anyone ever try the purple bed? Been seeing it on social media everywhere and I'm tempted! Sub $1000 I think too

The bigger question is do we update yellowfever's environmental hazard list for All of cypress village/Great Park by having this new homeless shelter...neighboring villages might also get points deducted as well  >:D

No rush, but I wonder how Macan lease at now? When I was looking at the time, it was really bad probably because it was a new model..

Just wanted to add some numbers as a vs stand point later on Read that the Ben simmons Nike deal is 5 year 20 million.  Now Ben simmons was by far more hyped and a better prospect, add in that he signed with Klutch sports (with Lebron at the helm) so they had to give him a good deal...I have no...
