    Automatic Property Tax Reassessment

    Got a notice from the LAC tax assessor a week ago that they will not be reducing my basis (I thought it kind of odd they would send a notice to tell me that). And based on sales comps I can't dispute it...yet. Looks like my house is worth a hair above what I paid for it in 2003. That will...

    Attn: Daedalus...

    Thanks mang! My avatar space is seriously bad, concentrated mojo. I'm thinking of renting it out to anyone who wants to do some harm to people who deserve it. <img src="http://www.irvinehousingblog.com/images/avatars/uploads/avatar_393.jpg" alt="" /><img...

    Frustration with Irvine inventory!

    :cheese: I just wanted to replace a rubber air bypass hose...5 years ago! How I spent my 3-day weekend: <img src="http://www.ozop.net/trans_small.jpg" alt="" /> Friction drive plates are on order as of today. I'm just about done digging. Time to start filling this [money] pit.

    Quiet Cool Whole House Fans, anyone have experience with them

    No personal experience, but it's most certainly underpowered relative to a wired unit. I don't know how much power it consumes, but just based on size, it's probably in the neighborhood of 30 watts. The smallest Quiet Cool fan uses 150 watts. You're paying for the solar power aspect more than...
