Only back yard, would that be Montecito? How big is your lot? And if you don't mind sharing, what are you able to do with 9K? The 30K-80K figure shocked me a bit... i thought one of the benefits of the tiny lots in Woodbury is there is minimal cost associated with landscaping... Oh, and yep...

Thanks for the tip fellow Trojan :) But I still would love to know what new buyers are spending to have at least a decent looking front/backyard... today I was shown 4 houses by the landscaping guys introduced by the builder and the range was 30K for just the front yard and 60-80K for front and...

How much would be a reasonable amount to spend on the landscaping (hardscape + softscape) on a Woodbury home with a 4XXX sq ft lot?? 20K? 30K? 50K? Trying to see how much budget we have to set aside :)

I got an email from Carmel inviting all the people who bought in for a "Meet your future neighbor" party. So I'm guessing they are pretty much finished selling Carmel.

Yes, I am aware that they are not paying the buyer's agent commission, therefore I was wo ndering if anyone who bought bothered hiring an agent of their own, or does anyone think it is necessary.

On another topic, did anyone who bought the 2010 collection use a buyer's agent? Or did u all handle everything on your own?

I agree completely, as a 1st time home buyer and future resident of Irvine, this forum has been invaluable, and school districts are without a doubt on the mind of most if not all parents. Now can we get back to more pressing issue of tankless water heater and the flush button??  :P LOL

Wow, 45K upgrade allowance?? Did you get any for Sonoma?? I never got to see Los Colinas, but we thought on the Carmel plan 2, for about 50K we can get almost 500 more sq ft... and we thought the extra bathroom will come in handy once kids get older... my brother and I used to fight over who had...

The should be finishing up phase 9 now. Phase 10 would be the final 4 house on top of where the sales office & its parking lot... then there are the 3 model homes.

So can anyone confirm all the wooden floors in the Sonoma/Carmel model homes are all indeed hardwood?

Carmel prices for the ceiling fan prewire and canned lights seem pretty close in line with those you got at Sonoma, 480 for 4 canned light, and I think the prewires are about 280ish

So woodbury 2 would be located directly south of Woodbury where that plot of farmland is (strawberry field)??

I'm guessing it is so expensive because additional plumbing is involved on top of the material cost. The original design only has one shower head up top on the wall, I think with the additional handheld, they need to run one more pipe lower down to hook up the handheld. But should additional...

What made u choose Sonoma over Carmel at the end?

Plan 2, and we did both... taking it up to 3122 sq ft

I've used these tankless ones as well while living in Tokyo and Hong Kong and they work great. But since all the apartments I've stayed at are less than 800 sq ft and only have one bathroom, I don't know how they will differ in these 2000+ sq ft houses. Does anyone know if Carmel have the flush...

I believe the scrapped the plans for that middle school and decided to build Montecito and Carmel on the plot.

We bought Carmel  :D

The wife really wants to have a handheld shower head in the master shower (or all the showers to bath the kids for that matter) but I looked at the options for Carmel, and it costs $2700 to "Add 2nd Shower Head at Master Bath - Handheld in Brushed Nickel." Does that sound like a reasonable...
