    Alta Vista and Bella Vista at Orchard Hills

    The photos aren't renderings, they're just photos of model homes from other Toll Brothers communities. I believe these ones are from the Enclave at Yorba Linda.

    Varenna by Tri Pointe Homes at Orchard Hills

    Can we get a second confirmation on this? I want to believe this, but 20 houses seems like an inflated figure.

    Hidden Canyon in Irvine

    Has anyone noticed the influx of Vicara homes hitting the market in Quail Hill recently? These homes used to be hard to come by. Only ten of them have been on the market/sold in the past three years. Eight of these houses are currently on the market. Do you think these are Hidden Canyon...

    La Vita at Orchard Hills

    If I were in the market for a plan 2, I would go with the one that went on the market earlier this week. The finishes are lot more "wow" in that one, imho. Plus, that one has a view.

    La Vita at Orchard Hills

    It?s difficult to tell how much the Trevi view lots have increased in price because the view lots they are selling now are overlooking the school, which are surely being accounted for in the prices. Plus the lots sizes in the newest view-lot releases are pretty small? seems like a 15 foot...

    La Vita at Orchard Hills

    La Vita's pricing really isn't as off as some of the people in this thread claim it to be. It's starting in the low $2M range at this point because the only homes left for sale have city views. Trevi is selling in the low $3M range for homes with views. When non-view homes were still available...

    Altair - new Irvine luxury housing by Lennar/Toll Bros - not Great Park, not TIC

    This isn't anything new. Several high-end communities already employ this method. Some that come to mind include Turtle Rock Summit, Lambert Ranch, Harbor Ridge in Newport Beach, and Pacific Ridge in Newport Coast (Fiano). The only thing that I find slightly odd in Altair's scenario is that the...

    Varenna by Tri Pointe Homes at Orchard Hills

    Some of the homes from the northern part of the Groves are gonna offer some awesome views, but I don't think Varenna offers any view lots.

    La Vita at Orchard Hills

    Someone should just buy this house and end this poor listing's misery. This is simply too much.

    Neighbor's massive backyard structure

    This is a non-issue. It's only a single-story expansion. If they were expanding the second floor in a way that would allow them more visibility into your backyard (or adding a deck on top of the expansion), THAT would be an actual problem. Consider yourself lucky. Plus, it isn't like you can't...

    Trabuco Blvd proposed name change

    Great Park Blvd sounds much better than Trabuco Blvd. "Trabuco" always rubbed me the wrong way, I'm not sure why. I don't see why they shouldn't change it. On top of it sounding better, changing it won't effect any home address or any existing major commercial address. Sidenote: I've always...

    La Vita at Orchard Hills

    If this were an investment property, it's probably their first because finishes like these don't fly in the high end real estate market, and a veteran investor would know this. The landscaping itself makes it looks like more of a rushed attempt to sell than an intended investment property.

    La Vita at Orchard Hills

    I remember this house coming on the market briefly a couple months back at the same price. A part of the Brookfield purchase agreement requires that the house not be put on the market until a year after escrow, so they were probably told to take it off the market until the year had passed. It's...

    Orchard Hills - Capella by Taylor Morrison

    Even though they don't have any shareholders to worry about, why would they just stop while they had the momentum? If anything, delaying construction may cause potential buyers to look elsewhere. Seems a bit counterintuitive.

    Orchard Hills - Capella by Taylor Morrison

    It says $2,100,000+ for all three Capella models on Redfin. I wonder what this is all about. Maybe the plan 3 sold for around $2.1, which isn't too far off from the price per square foot of the other two models for sale (though slightly higher).

    Orchard Hills - Capella by Taylor Morrison

    La Vita is almost sold out. There are three homes in phase 9 that are still under construction that have not sold yet. The plan 1 and plan 3 models are available, and the remaining two models are presumably sold. The plan 4 model is in escrow, and the plan 2 model is reserved. All of phase 10...

    Proposed cemetery near Great Park and the new Irvine 5th high school

    Disappointing... There is absolutely no reason why they would reject the proposal.

    Hidden Canyon in Irvine

    For the time being, of course. It doesn't make sense to have it guard-gated for 24-hours while construction is going on. If this were the case, the association would essentially be paying the guard to just stand there and wave hello to the construction workers as they enter and exit the...

    Hidden Canyon in Irvine

    I noticed a recent phase release for Marbella on the TB website (based on the new lots that were marked). Any info on this, eatthis?
