    Please Recommend your House Cleaner!

    I think this request was previously posted by someone, but no one responded.... I'm looking for a high quality, trustworthy person(s) to come every 2 weeks to clean a 4 bed, 3 bath house in Tustin. I'm not interested in large corporate outfits like Molly Maid, etc. THANKS FOR ANY INFO!

    What about Columbus Square in Tustin ??

    I agree and did not mean to say Columbus Square is really urban. No one would believe that. It just "feels" more urban-like due to the location. I love older homes too, My best girlfriend lives in upstate ny and has the most gorgeous 1920's old colonial house. And I have friends who live...

    Central Park West

    <p>I find this fact very interesting: CPW will be in the Santa Ana Unified School District. Maybe Irvine said no-way. But here is how I see it. CPW is NOT marketing to families with kids. I think they are marketing to retired people and foreigners with a lot of money who want that kind of...

    What about Columbus Square in Tustin ??

    <p>fumbling: Yes, AFTER we signed the contract, Lyon reduced the price on two separate occasions. Is this really a surprise to you? My understanding is that all the rebutable builders did so after prices began dropping dramatically. Not surprisingly, they would not have wanted us and others...

    What about Columbus Square in Tustin ??

    <p>Hi socalhousingbubble: There is a bedroom down the hall from the master bedroom (on the 1st floor) which we're currently using as gym. But it's a real bedroom and our plan is to turn that into a nursery (there is a closet and full bath next to it). But again, no babies for at least 2 more...

    What about Columbus Square in Tustin ??

    <p>I was one of the suckers who stood in line for a bus to look at the Portola Springs models - it was the worst day of my life. I fell in love with Las Colinas, but I scrutinized the floor plan with the master on the first floor and compared it with Astoria Plan 1 and Astoria won based on...

    What about Columbus Square in Tustin ??

    <p>We looked at Columbus Grove too and I really liked Lantana (and the fact that it is Irvine), but hubby was FREAKING out about the concrete plant. Go figure, he doesn't mind the hangers, but refuses to live by the concrete plant.....You're right, nowhere to walk in Columbus Square right now...

    What about Columbus Square in Tustin ??

    <p>Lyon did the right thing and reduced the price almost 100k - AFTER we signed and I should know, they didn't have to do that. But again, it was the "right thing to do" in light of the significant price reductions on the homes that were for the sale while our place was being built. So the...

    Central Park West

    So, I was 30 minutes early for my yoga class, so just for fun I decided to check out Central Park West and OMG! Why aren't you all ripping that place apart? They are asking almost $800,000 for the 1 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath. Did I just miss those posts? Also, the plan is to build a ZILLION units...

    What about Columbus Square in Tustin ??

    <p>Sorry for the delay! I LOVE Astoria. It's funny, I truly enjoy seeing the amazing progress every morning when I leave for work in the moring and when I come home at the end of the day. I can't help but think that all the contractors are working for me! This is a sore spot for a lot of...

    Is Ashton Green in Turtle Ridge a Good buy? Price decreases!

    I sold my 2 bedroom 2 bath condo in Ashton Green in May 2006 and I LOVED living there (but it was only for 2 years). Funny story, we bought in Phase 2 and by coincidence, we were waiting at the Phase release by Shea at both Ashton Green and Jasmine in Quail Hill (same floor plan). My hubby...

    Villages of Columbus - Columbus Square - Astoria

    <p>I think this is the reason the Plan 1 (although it has the least square footage) is more desirable to some and will continue to be priced accordingly:</p> <p>The Plan 1 has the Master bedroom on the 1st floor, a full bedroom and bathroom on the 1st floor along with a formal living room...

    Villages of Columbus - Columbus Square - Verandas

    <p>Make sure to use the correct "lingo" everyone. </p> <p>From earlier post:</p> <p>"highly connected, pedestrian-friendly community with many home options-from executive residences to intimate townhomes." Even if you don't like VoC, it cannot be disputed, that it is very central - and...

    Landscape Designer/Contractor - very frustrated

    <p> I never thought it would be so difficult to find a landscape designer and/or contractor (for my front and back). I am in desperate need for referrals (too much of a gamble to call someone from the numerous flyers and business cards that we receive in the mail or that are left on the door)...

    Help for good family

    Thank you nirvinerealtor - I already asked her about that. Apparently, they are on a month to month tenancy and she does not have a copy of her original lease (from 9 years ago). It's my understanding that unless specified in the lease, the landlord can terminate with 30 days notice. But I...
