    How low can we go? 30 yr fixed at 3.75% with no fees...

    I did a search and most people complained about refis. According to them they guarantee a close on time for new purchases. They said it takes 30 days as they prioritize new purchases over refis.

    Irvine Pacific - WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!

It's a marketing tactic that builders like Irvine Pacific often use. The honest builders will say, "while the waiting list is long, there are around 5...

    Irvine Pacific - WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!

    Is it me or are Irvine Paciific sales reps really arrogant and snooty? I thought it was just one bad seed but wifey and I have been searching for over a year now and have had several bad experiences with their customer service. Someone needs to give them some honest feedback. Terrible!! >:D >:D

    Bump. Would you do the master bedroom bathroom countertops through an outside contractor to save around 2k?  Is it worth the hassle?

    Bathroom Backsplash Height

    The standard backsplash heigh at the design center is 6 inches. That seems a bit high and I would prefer if it was around 4 inches. What are your thoughts? Below is a picture of our bathroom layout (but not the countertops or height).

    Master Bath - Bianco Carrera Marble

    The design center is charging around $4800 for the bianco carrera marble on the countertops of both sinks and the tub deck. We have a plan 2 at Las Ventanas. 1) Are there any advantages of going with the design center vs. outside contractor for countertops? 2) The standard backsplash is 6"...

    Subway tiles worth 1500?

    This is for the shower. Thanks for the input. I think I'll pay to stagger the standard tile. Also, they're charging me around 2k to upgrade the floor tiles in all the bathrooms. I'm thinking it's worth it just going with them so as to avoid warranty issues, plus how much more can I really save...

    Subway tiles worth 1500?

    Ok, no subway tile then! Would you pay 280 to stagger the standard 6x6?

    Subway tiles worth 1500?

    The design center is charging 1500 for white staggered subway tiles instead of the standard 6x6. Do you think it's worth paying that much for the shower downstairs?

    What are your thoughts on e-stone? They looked very similar to the ceasarstone countertops. Do they scratch easily? Is it the same thing as Pedrifina?
