Ha! Please don't take this as encouragement but keep up the good work. Most people tend to dislike those that are hard to deal with, unpopular, egotistic, and prideful (not taking an indirect shot at you btw) but I enjoy it. Maybe you me are the same. Oops I've already said too much.

Wait, let me answer this. Never. Even if someone comes up with an argument (and I'm sure many are holding their breaths), it will be shut down with precise reasoning and justification how it was never technically a slander, which proves the above statement true. Once again, results in a personal...

What. Is. Going. On. In. Here. Anyway.

Heh heh. Some of the programs (MBA....etc) are designed for people that work full time. From what I've heard from friends, they do feel that it is easier than undergrad. Undergrad for me was definitely not easy. Had the best and worst time in my life, no idea how I got through it in 4 years.

Agreed. I was just speaking to SFR. I think those that have seen and lived in both sides of the globe tend to prefer US for the better standard of living. But many still would still move to Asia for the convenience (typically older generations or 1st gen immigrants). Education in Asia before...

From my experience with Asian homes, lemons and roses and other Asian flowers/fruits only :P.

From a conversation with an agent.......In Asia, you have no land, maybe a balcony if you're lucky because it's all high rises. Vertical living vs horizontal living. So when they come here and see you can get your own house with your own lot that includes both a front and backyard. They're...

A lot of the "foreign" cash buyers may not be actually foreigners but have accounts and businesses in both US ans Asia. Very true for some of the people I know. Even more true that: 1) FCBs buy in Irvine because Irvine is well executed, planned, clean, safe, new, and has good schools, highly...

Yes I felt victim to this as well, or maybe I was more of a optimist and must see every home even though a lot of them you can tell is shot with a wide angle because of distortion and exaggerated lines. Some listings even use HDR photos, which are fine but looks more surreal than representation...

Thanks for sharing!

I agree because we're both from the buyer's perspective so this would definitely benefit us. But from TIC's perspective, I'd agree with shadax because they have to protect their interest as well and not let the co-op bonus lose its purpose. In a perfect world where everything is fair, I think...

Awesome. Hope it goes through! Thanks to IrvineRealtor for the link.

Good idea as well. I think Home Depot carries them too (?). Hopefully I can just make 1 stop to compare orchids and succulents. Going to try to keep it around or under $20/each. Not going to be fun cleaning the place tomorrow  :-\

Messaged. Good luck!

Talked to some more of them yesterday, very nice bunch. One even invited me into his home to check out the remodeling he's doing right now. Invitation for some snacks/BBQ would come at a much later time, right now I'm just looking for something small at move-in to say hello. Seems like...

Hey Will, You know, that sounds like a great idea. I will look into that. I'm meeting Orlando today at noon to do final walk-through. I've seen it 80% complete and I have to say they did a fantastic job. Really appreciate your recommendation, wouldn't have turned out as good as it is without...

But what if my neighbors are ucla-usc converts like some of us :o. jk I agree, food is tough. Flowers are a safe(r) bet. Since I don't have a myspace account or any of the famous self-portrait-in-front-of-a-bathroom-mirror-angle pictures, I have to resist the urge to be spontaneous and just...

Looking to move the major furniture this weekend into the new place and was thinking about getting something for my direct neighbors (across and adjacent). Neighbors are important and I'd like to start off on the right foot with a small gift. Nothing extravagant, something simple. But I can't...

+1. Exactly my thoughts and one of the main reasons why I didn't buy new. IHO, do you have any preference on communities in Irvine? The poll choices span a wide range of locations. EDIT: just read your choices, you're considering outside of Irvine? Personally I would prefer to not raise kids...
