My friend who told me NOT to buy in Irvine back in 2011 bought this one.  Look at the resale. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Los-Altos/734-S-El-Monte-Ave-94022/home/673247?utm_source=ios_share&utm_medium=share&utm_campaign=copy_link&utm_nooverride=1&utm_content=link I should have listened.

Maybe people don?t like the Groves area because it?s close to the tolls?  But Varenna isn?t having that difficulty in selling and they are right next to the tolls AND Varenna have 3500 sq ft lots.  Agent says that house is hard to sell because of the T intersection more than the small lot.

Were the floorplans better at Strada than Capella?

But why does Strada sell for $1.55m?  Is it the lot size?  Is it the school district?  https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/57-Wild-Horse-92602/home/105486347?utm_source=ios_share&utm_medium=share&utm_campaign=copy_link&utm_nooverride=1&utm_content=link

With the build out of the reserves, what do you think that will do to IUSD ratings? 

Anyone have great recommendations on martial arts for kids particularly younger girls?  No I don?t think it will really teach them how to fight.  More self confidence building and anti-bullying.  I yelped a place called Kid Power Martial Arts, in Tustin.  It is taught by a female.  Anyone heard...

There was a Terraza resale for $1.2m Maybe the homes closer to the OH school are desirable.  But that doesn?t say why Padova, which is close to the toll, and far from the gates, are selling well.

Some family who bought it as an ?investment?. Crazy huh?

Looks like they are starting to build homes above Varenna.  Anyone know which builder and specs?

Not sure screenshot is best way of showing it.  So it sounds like a deed means it is paid off and a trust deed is when you borrow money.

My buddy showed me a site called property shark. I?m trying to understand what this means. The property was sold in 2010 and the title says ?Deed? with amount $1,000,000. Party 1 is Mr. and Mrs. Jackson and Party 2 is Mrs Smith. This means that the Jackson couple sold it to Mrs. Smith for $1m. I...

That is actually a lot given that the clubhouse rental is $300. So are places like cypress and northwood, that don't require insurance because they are open to the public?  I recall they only asked for clubhouse rental fee and security deposit only.

When we used to rent out the Cypress Village amenities, all they needed was a flat fee and the security deposit. For our community, which is managed by Keystone, they require additional insurance on top the security deposit. Is that normal for all HOA?s? Keystone is a crappy hoa.  They are...

I was wondering the same.  Or does everyone here have cable or just stream?  Or do you just install it yourself?  I would want a professional job because my second story is pretty high as well.

Sold for $1.6m in 2012?

Most lenders shouldn't have a prepayment penalty.  Yeah, you don't want to pay a fee to automatically schedule payments especially when you can easily schedule it yourself through your own bank for free.

Has anyone found a place to salvage the ugly standard mirrors in the bathrooms?  I am looking to see if there is a contractor that comes out, measures and creates frames so you can keep your existing mirrors and add a nice frame.  Or is the only way to rip and replace?

Underwhelming cookie cutter floorplans. 

Plan two had the weird step down area but for some reason we liked it.  That's the one with the elevator.  Awesome covered patio upstairs. Hate the zero lot though.  I wonder if that will deter sales?

Plan one was the nicest with the high ceilings.
