    Cypress Village (Planning Area 40)

    I don't think Irvine (the city or TIC) wanted these to be built: http://articles.ocregister.com/2009-10-16/news/24570580_1_housing-mandate-affordable-housing-scag I may be wrong but I think this mandate is what led to Cypress Village (as well as the future Great Park housing) However, I do...

    [IHB] Does the Irvine school system add value to local houses?

    Just a side note: the two ivy leaguers that I remember from my high school (Northwood) both were accepted because of sports.  Yes, they had good grades, but not those elite grades but it was more so one could play on the football team and another could play on the softball team.  If I remember...

    $1 Movies in Irvine

    Another cool thing is that you can buy the tickets online without any sort of service charge. Funny, how this was the family theatre to go to in the 80's and early 90's.  I still remember as a kid  having to sit in the front row on opening weekend for Ghostbusters II at this theatre.

    Venturanza Del Verde - Tustin Ranch

    Do you have a floorplan for this area?  The Ballesteros condos have always been our favorite out of the choices in Tustin Ranch but was always confused about how it looks like 3 floors.  I'm assuming no one can be above or below you?

    EPA's final analysis of TCE - causes cancer (well duh)

    I think they are doing it at Culver and the 5 as well.  Don't remember the number but there is a sign when you get on the 5 North at Culver coming from the Northwood side.

    Where the ballers go...

    I generally play at 24 hour.  its nice to just workout right before or after if you happen to get on a bad team...or you are the reason for the bad team... I have played Settlers Park sometimes with friends but haven't really ever seen enough people there for random pick up games.  I'm...

    North park versus Woodury

    what he said.  I too would be honored to live next to such an address so I could be educated on many things such as pricing strategy

    Wild Rivers (relocating to Great Park?)

    went to Wild Rivers a couple times this summer.  By the amount of tractors and bulldozers that are just lined up outside the walls, it seems like the Irvine Company is ready to kill this place November 1st. Also, this seems way too late to be sending an email like this.  Why wouldn't they send...

    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    I know for myself I figure why pay 4.5% when I can pay 3% and will be putting that extra 1.5% down on principal (so basically making the same payment I would have made anyways.  I know for some, they would rather take that difference and invest that because they think they will get a better rate...

    West Irvine no HOA and very low MR

    cause its the slums of Irvine (Sarcasm) I love west irvine, almost as much as tustin ranch or northwood pointe In all seriousness, i believe it is because it is supposed to be the "value" area of the new homes built at the time.  Northpark is supposed to be the upper end of the two.  Since I...

    Witnessed Hit & Run

    Thank you IACrenter!  As someone that has been a victim of a hit and run in a parking lot while I was inside Costco, it gave me a great apprecation for the witness.  Just like you, they wrote down the plate so the Tustin police could track down the guy that took off after doing thousands of...

    Analysis on a 7-year ARM mortgage versus 30-year fixed mortgage

    How does the 7 year compare to the 5 year?  I remember you saying that for yourself you would highly consider the 5/5 Penfed.  Which do you go with? I just use this as an easy example: http://www.schoolsfirstfcu.org/rates_intranet/www_rerates.asp What are the things to look at when deciding a...

    substitute city

    Tustin Ranch would be the highest for me except their prices aren't really that much different from Irvine. I wouldn't mind Mission Viejo since I sort of grew up there (parents divorced).  That city is so huge so you get a wide range of choices. I lived both by the lake side of town where it...
