I couldn't agree more that Turtle Rock has a great feel...problem is there is exactly one 3 bedroom listing for under $800k in Turtle Rock right now:https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/8-Starfall-12-Irvine-CA-92603/25671788_zpid/ This was our problem when house hunting, not only did the homes in...

I live in Carissa, we bought in 2019. Feel free to PM me with specific questions.

Spectrum Costco yesterday right at 9:30 AM - plenty of toilet paper and paper towels. No clorox wipes, and very limited beef and pork. A good amount of fresh seafood, and tons of sausage in the meat counters, and rotisserie chicken counters were full. But definitely significantly less fresh meat...

Martin is correct. They put "base" carpet everywhere except kitchen and bathrooms which get "base" tile for free. Have them put the base down everywhere you want an outside contractor to replace. We went with upgraded flooring in the bathrooms because it wasn't much cheaper through an outside...

We closed in October on our new construction home with Cal Pac Homes. We priced flooring with the design center and outside contractors. The design center prices were much higher for everything except the bathrooms. Because the contractor would have had to remove and reinstall the toilets and...

In my experience it's been much more important to major in something with solid earning potential/stable job opportunities (computer science, engineering, nursing) than it is to go to an elite university. As an example, I work with people who went to UCI and people who went to Cal Poly...

I'm not sure why Mountaineer is so upset. We looked at a lot of homes in and outside of Irvine and we found the best fit floorplan/budget/etc in PS. PS has it's pros and cons like any other neighborhood. I agree there can be a lot of negativity on here sometimes, but if you love your home and...

That seems like a good way to encourage single and/or working moms to run for office, which I think is a good thing.

I will echo the reason we landed on Portola Springs instead of the Great Park was mello roos. Celeste has nice views and you can walk to the park and elementary school, but Muse is a little closer to Woodbury and other shopping. Also I think Muse might still be walking distance to the Cadence...

Yeah on a typical week we do errands on the weekend, and the distance to the stores is totally doable. I would love to be able to walk to something other than the pool. It's one of those "in an absolutely perfect world" things. It's definitely not a deal breaker or a major problem, but if you...

Dude I literally said "Woodbury is not far and very nice, and I have no issue going there." Whiney baby???

As someone who lives in Portola Springs my first guess would be no retail in the neighborhood. Woodbury is not far and very nice, and I have no issue going there. But it does feel like there should be some retail in PS.

FWIW Shipping containers are catnip for my fellow millennials. My coworkers (I work near spectrum and myself and most coworkers live in Irvine) were going gaga when this place opened a few weeks back in Garden Grove:https://www.steelcraftlb.com/steelcraft-garden-grove/

The planning commission agenda for the 10/17 meeting will be posted a few days in advance and contain all the documents/maps/details http://legacy.cityofirvine.org/council/comms/planning/agenda.asp

I would be happy with anything. On a related not, slightly disappointed by this item on tonight's planning commission agenda, but again it's better than nothing. The District 4 Tentative Map 18167 and Health Club Conditional Use Permit (CUP) projects are located in Planning Area 51.    The...

Same for us, there was no interest paid to us so therefore we chose not to do an impound account since we saw no advantage to us.

When we were apartment hunting we primarily used: Apartments.com, Zillow, Craigslist

We have the same issue in PS. In our house is fine but one block over there's an awful dead spot with absolutely no service.

This is how we felt as well! We bought when we were ready to buy, and we're really happy to finally be living in a home we own. Now we feel like we can actually think seriously about having children. There's more to life than ROI!
