    Jamboree Shopping Center

    I must be missing something. Why is everyone making this a blog so akin to AmericaPatrol.com? While I frankly think that bloggers with names such as "asianinvasion" or "Panda...this or that" have no room to complain given that their very log-on names seem to incorporate slang or derrogatory...

    Is it possible to get a 5.8 30 year fixed?

    5.8 ?? Do you mean 5 & 7/8? (Eg. 5.875%) Look, getting 5.75 on a Jumbo will be nearly impossible unless you pay points. Even at some of the credit unions that have been mentioned - and bear in mind, they are already selling money at about 1% below the market rate (because they don't sell or...

    University High School versus Northwood High School

    You guys are really getting carried away. The mindset that seems to pervade many individuals here reminds me of people whose children interview to attend certain "fancy" schools in Los Angeles, eg. Marlboro. A safe and stable home environment has far more to do with scholastic success... than...

    WHAT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ABOUT IRVINE! CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT

    He's from Madrid? Hmm. Not exactly what one would consider "Hispanic" by contemporary notions. I also have to comment on something that Panda said earlier, something about being a minority, so how could he be racist... that kind of logic really bothers people like me. Having a majority...

    I'd say that I am sitting directly on the fence... which is buckling under my weight.

    Average income for $1 million home?

    Agree. 250K household yearly income will render somewhere around 12-3K (after taxes, retirement contribution, healthcare premiums, etc). 12-3K less 7K for the scenerio you described above (assumes a 20% down) leaves 5-6K per month for car, food, gas, child care, misc... and this doesn't take...

    Woodbury - Villa Rosa

    Does anyone know if the floorplans in Villa Rosa might make their way to Orchard Hills? While I really like the floorplan, I'm much less crazy about the current pricing... and I'm thinking that I might be able to get a similiar floorplan in OH in a couple of years? At a better price? Wow...

    Cops at Woodbury Stop Signs

    Just one extra post to see if 250 got me out of the IAC rental... I guess not. =(

    Cops at Woodbury Stop Signs

    I wonder if some local residents, or a member/agent of the Woodbury HOA complained to the IPD... resulting in the police presence... while I am in favor of a police presence - to deter real crime - I get suspicious of whether many police measures are really a veiled form of revenue generation...

    Woodbury - Villa Rosa

    the times that I've stopped by, my inquiries about negotiating have been flattly rejected. I too am hoping for a little more of a price reduction. The best I have seen is a rare loan incentive (offering a really good fixed rate). However, times are slowing, as is seen by the reduction in the...

    Woodbury - Villa Rosa

    Latest Villa Rosa pricing sheet - no new reductions =( Residence # 1 - 991,000 Residence #2 - 1,083,000 Residence #3 - 1,120,000 Still pretty harsh Mello-Roos @ 6K per year. Ouch. It appears that only 1 fo 5 in the most recent phase has sold.
