Major road? I don't see how Portola Pkwy can be compared to Culver, Jamboree, Irvine Blvd or any other major road. And there is another way out of PS other than Portola and the toll road. Its not major, but it quickly shoots you to Irvine Blvd without traffic lights.

Ill have to look at the management company when I get home. For some reason I can't remember off the top of my head. Ill shoot you a PM with the info. Thanks!

I have about 9 months to do the landscaping in my backyard.  Because I have a sub-HOA, I will submit my forms/plans to them. Being technically savvy, I would like to prepare the plans on my own. I could use some advice regarding this process. Does anyone know how detailed the submitted...

I still haven't gone to check out Las Ventanas.  I guess now I have a reason to go to confirm this comparison to Angela.

What about other options such as Las Ventanas, Sevilla or Casero? Those are all cheaper/around the same price and new. You'd have to factor in the Mello Roos, location and all those other tradeoffs.

From my experience, the order is based on when you got pre-qualified with the builder's preferred lender. For Sevilla, they never told people what order they were on the priority list. They just had people show up at the grand opening. On the morning of, they just read off the priority list and...

I believe the most expensive Plan 3 in Sevilla was about $659K. It came with a driveway and a huge backyard that was at least 40 feet deep by about 50 feet wide. I have the Phase 1 pricing sheet at home so I will have to double check the price tonight. Is there a LV plan 2 with a comparable lot...

Anyone visit these lately? They have a handful listed on redfin. Last time someone posted, it sounded like KB was still struggling. They usually have 4 maybe 5 people holding signs on the weekends. One was as far as the intersection of Irvine Blvd. and Sand Canyon.

Kinetics, just curious, which phase was that Plan 1 in? Was it one of the last phases or for build out?

Feom what I remember there were only 3 homes in Sevilla at the time that were offering a driveway. I think the lot premium was between 25K-30K. Those homes had a driveway, backyard and were off a street, not a motorcourt.

Yes there were.

If you had the opportunity to choose between LV with the few Sevilla homes that have a driveway and backyard, which one would you choose? HOAs are higher with Sevilla because they are zoned as Detached condos while LV are true SFRs with a higher price tag. Also, we might take into account the...

I think if they are with the "to be" buyers and they sign a consent form in case they get hurt out at the site. I went out numerous times with family and friends while it was being built and we noticed some defects. We asked the superintendent about our concerns and they were able to rectify the...

USCTrojan, you probably have already posted this somewhere else, but do you have a link for where I can find info on Mello Roos for the neighborhood I just bought into?

That 133 is going to be overly crowded, even more than it is now. Especially if they build more homes south of LA. I can just imagine the bottleneck to get in and out of LA during rush hour. Does anyone know what is being planned for the empty open space directly across from LA (the lot they...

Seems like PS is moving just fine with the exception of one builder. Perhaps I am mistaken, feel free to correct me.

I just finished doing my own storage in my garage with the help of my father-in-law. We basically used wood planks and plywood boards. I am extremely happy with the results, plus we got to customize it to the way we wanted.. It was a challenge to do it on our own, but I think we spent a total of...

Why do you think that LA is the next PS?

I actually recently added epoxy to my garage floor. It costs about $100 and it took about 3-4 hours total (over the course of 2 days). I think it was a job well done and the epoxy is holding up quite well so far. My only downfall was not using all the decorative chips. I had a bunch leftover...

New poster and new homeowner in Irvine  :)... I am looking to pour some concrete in my backyard for hardscaping purposes. Can anyone recommend concrete contractors? Also, does anyone know the approximate price of concrete/sq.ft? Thanks!
