    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    I'm not sure where you get your data but in 2018 there was an increase of cash buyers in LA/OC compared to previous years.

    Arizona Real Estate (Bubble)

    I do think that these "hot" cities in tertiary areas and non-coastal states will experience a bubble at some point...Employers will clamp down on remote work and just simply stop hiring people from out of the area.

    How low can we go? 30 yr fixed at 3.75% with no fees...

    Even more incentive for those with 2-3% loans to stay put and never sell. I'm likely never going to sell my investment properties until retirement because they are sub-3%. The benefits of a 1031 would not be attractive enough for me to make a move. For something like a $750,000 loan the...

    Looking for House Rental in Irvine. June/July Move In

    I would also suggest Cerritos or Los Alamitos. Like for like homes in these 2 places are cheaper than Irvine too. If you want to have a bearable commute and care a lot about schools then those might be your best bet. Irvine is great for kids as a community and activities but you have to ask...

    https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/154-Annuals-92618/home/178577717 I think this one is crazier in CVE. $1.4M list for attached condo which will likely sell.

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    It failed to sell at $1.2M because it was a non-paying tenant for months. They were trying to sell with the tenant included. Finally they got the tenants out and did some light remodel.

    Housing Analysis

    All Irvine Airbnb rentals require 31 days minimum booking now to skirt the no STR rules...basically making them an expensive furnished month to month rent option.

    Housing Analysis

    2-3 week period during the summer through Zillow. It was a situation where the previous tenant didn't take care of the property so I listed it before they left thinking I could rent it quickly but then realized I needed some more work. So I left the ad up and the applicants just kept coming. I...

    Housing Analysis

    I'll add to this from my personal experience. My rental in Chino got 140 applicants. I pre-screened and invited about 40 with high credit and incomes to view the home. About 10 offered full year + above asking. Selected a multiyear lease with rent increases built in. Prepaid 1 year and $300...

    Venta Spur / SR-133 Bicycle-Pedestrian Bridge

    Off topic but there seriously needs to be a connection from Marine to Technology ... the traffic through Marine for Great Park gets kind of insane during busy times like right after large soccer tournaments. I think with the addition of the amphitheater and Wild Rivers they need to think of a...

    Where the market is - Buyer Offers

    But what I mean is if you messaged me to draft up a fake offer from my CAR account it would show my name and not your name ... making it appear to be a legitimate offer.

    Where the market is - Buyer Offers

    Your offer should be worded as such that the listing agent needs to produce a real offer from a fully pre-qualified buyer. Sure it's easy to "fake" by getting a friend agent to write a fake offer but karma will come back to bite people like that...

    The design choices are so odd to me and seem mismatched...it'll still sell well though.
