$800k for 1700 sq ft seems steep to me. Living in the shadow of 2 freeways is a lot of noise and health risk. That first floor plan is weird too, opens to stairs and adjoined bathroom. Makes it feel even more cramped.

Mmm I think it's the same MR for Beacon Park. I think the "$4,455" minimum quote roughly matches a Brio 1465 sq ft attached product. TNONL just posted about this on his site. So BP-MR will be higher than Pavilion Park... and Parasol Park / Altair / District 4 will be higher than BP. I would...

Sounds like the county has assessed your property higher than what you originally paid. You can appeal if you want. I would call the county if you have questions. Mello Roos is a fixed amount which is why you wouldn't see it on your supplemental bill. I assume you paid all your annual MR via...

Ridge Valley traffic noise is a probability IMO. TNONL's website claims prices will be in the high $700s.

I assumed District 4 got renamed because having a "District of Death" next to a cemetery would have caused heads to explode.

Drove by Parasol Park via Trabuco Rd today. You can see street signs slowly going up now in Parasol Park, but no construction yet. It was probably mentioned here already but Marine Way is closed for now, and they opened  Trabuco Rd instead. The Sunday farmer's market @ Great Park seems to be...

My guess would be 25-35 mph. Additional residents of Portola Springs and District Next might use Bosque to get to retail, sports fields etc. So my guess would be light noise with windows open and nothing else when windows closed.

Looks like the RFP has gone out to potential operators. http://www.ocregister.com/articles/park-720877-water-great.html I am curious if the Great Park will end up being a hodge-podge of a water park, ice rinks, cemetery, golf course and who knows what else. 

Thanks for all the thoughtful responses. I hadn't considered the bordering between tiles. May just go with one set of tile for the purpose of selling if it's simpler, though. I thought it might be a little strange to extend the same tile all the way from kitchen to bathroom, but it sounds like...

Sooo... I want to update the flooring in my parents' house. Am thinking about one porcelain tile for common areas, and another one for bathrooms. (The remaining areas would be carpet.) Is it weird to have different types of tile adjoined between two rooms? Like a hallway and a bathroom.  I don't...

I would agree, $15k sounds "cheap". It is really priceless if you have kids. Will also be a great selling feature when you eventually sell, too. Congrats on your purchase.

Base Camp still sounds pretty hefty but yeah, maybe only good for walking from BP or Parasol Park.... "Also slated for the Great Park Neighborhoods will be a commercial district known as Base Camp. When finished, Trabuco Road will be rerouted to curve through the 72-acre development with stores...

Does anyone know the broker co-op for Pavilion Park or Beacon Park? I want to take a long look at Parasol Park in the future. Thanks.

Rare view lot on an extremely quiet single-loaded street! No one behind you. Direct access to "walking trails."

I believe the OC Register updated the map in the link that OP shared. Now it delineates the golf course, Parasol park, cemetery, etc. (Reposting link for convenience) http://www.ocregister.com/articles/park-716645-fivepoint-homes.html

Thanks for sharing. For District 4 - would timing be contingent on final decision of the cemetery location? I imagine 5P would want to set prices accordingly. And then corollary question, when would the "final final" decision be made re: cemetery?

Wait list for LePort is about 1 year. Teacher:Student ratio 1:6 which is higher than other preschools.

This is Tustin Field which I'm guessing is 50% Asian. Grandma even attached the rear-facing car seat to hide the "baby" - lol. I didn't have the heart to stop her.

What's up with all the hatred toward mainland Chinese? This morning I found someone's grandma digging through my recyclables for the $0.05 CRV bottles. Very industrious and considerate of her to make sure that I unscrewed all my bottle caps. She even used an empty stroller to discreetly haul the...
