    What is the cheapest way to go to LAX from Irvine?

    Well, not the cheapest way, but last week when we went to Hawaii (out of LAX), we hired a limo company that hubby's work uses. When we got to LAX we were so relaxed - no stress whatsoever! The driver arrived at our home ON TIME and emailed us with his name and ETA 1/2 hour before he arrived at...

    This is how desireable certain neighborhoods in No. Tustin are. I had been watching this home hoping it would come down in price. It is about a block from where I grew up and one of my favorite neighborhoods. It sold in 7 days in this market. Go figure. <a...

    Typical cost for cleaning service?

    It sounds like I am definitely paying too much, as this is a weekly fee. If I can't renegotiate the price, I will PM you for more info. - thanks! I had a feeling this price was the result of the 5% "gated community fee" as I like to call it.

    Typical cost for cleaning service?

    I'm not sure how long she stays, but I think the first visit was probably all day. After the first visit, I can't image her having more than 4 hours of work per week. She did scoop the cat poo and clean the litter area, which I didn't expect, but appreciated greatly. Most people are telling...

    Typical cost for cleaning service?

    After years of resistance, I finally broke down and hired a house cleaner. We have a two story 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. I really had no idea what a fair price was, but now that I'm checking with other folks, they tell me I'm paying too much. What is a fair price to pay for a cleaning service...
