    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    Not yet. Last time I checked I was told that they're aiming for Summer 2023. Realistically, I'd say Fall 2023 or Winter 2024. Would be nice to have it sooner though.

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    Guess we’ll find out soon enough. On another note, just began the process of moving in. Toll did a great job with the home design(s); there are lots of windows to bring in natural light. Of course YMMV depending on which lot. Happy with ours though.

    Born and raised in OC at the upper beach cities. Glad to explore south OC though. Been sleeping on it for a while.

    New communities in Portola Springs

    Not a huge fan of the interior or landscaping design choices for model homes in general; they tend to be bold and overstated. For these reasons, I'd wager that my home will look better than the model equivalent in no time ;)

    Will be moving in soon and am excited to see who the neighbors will be. I've been told they are cool, relaxed dog-loving people. We'll see if they end up moving in.

    The Landing Tustin Legacy (Brookfield Residential)

    Lack of driveway and open street parking are big "microlocation" issues. For these reasons, Cira appears more like a luxury condo than a SFH (or detached condo or whatever you want to call it). I can see weekend parking being a huge PITA for family/friends/guests.

    Sneaky Toll Brothers; subtle pricing for a “lucky” number.

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    Thank you for the clarification. The story of Irvine’s development is intriguing; it’s one of the few cities that have its own well-to-do real estate company. That comes with its upsides as well as its downsides. Much of the city reflects their ethos and design language already. I’d imagine...

    So any opinion different from your own becomes invalidated and therefore is no longer “real”… Got it. Thanks. You might want to check out:

    Without a doubt, the new developments in Great Park & Baker Ranch / LF will attract small and big businesses alike. The Irvine Company seems vested in building out this region; it's just a matter of time. Trader Joe's would be wise to open a location here 🤭 (it'll probably happen in the next 5...

    A true reflection of investors over FTHB / primary homeowners within the (crazy) housing market in the past 2 years. This is well recognized in national headlines and here alike.

    Teresina & Serrano Summit definitely take advantage of LF's elevation; the model homes at Teresina have some of the best views of Orange County overlooking its own private community park. The views are similar to Cetara at OH. However, the view lot premiums for Teresina & Serrano Summit are...

    To be fair, CalBears posts in this thread appear to be coming from an emotional standpoint rather than an objective one. This is evidenced by the excessive posts berating Meadows vs PS (despite already settling down in a home in PS). We get it; he likes his home in PS... but there are better...

    it may be hard comprehend on the surface, but when you compare the breakdown with price per sqft, it begins to make more sense.  sagewood offers a SFH residence in SoCal OC for $596/sqft of living space (vs irvine's $700+/sqft).  even then, the current price is quite competitive in today's...
