Oh, then IP is perfect for everyone. :)  My bad.

It's just standard industry marketing lingo.  The real difference is guard gated vs. non-guard gated (eg Oak Creek). Why would you describe something as simply "red", when you can describe it as "a bold, carbernet ruby"? :)

Your situation is unlike any of the current zero lot line issues... 1 - Turtle Rock 2 - 8000sf lot Compared to: 1 - Irvine Pacific (bleh) 2 - 2500sf house on a 3000sf lot 3 - Irvine Pacific (bleh)

Mass Exodus from Columbus Square. :)

Personally, I wouldn't hold out for Eastwood.  IMHO, a mobile home park across the street would hurt resale value more than a cemetery...  >:D

It may not work as well...you'll get a flurry of bargain hunters who don't really want/need the property, and submit at-list or slightly above offers.  BUT, it might generate enough traffic to snag that one whale who really REALLY wants the property.

Thank you for bringing reason to a completely irrational situation. :)

This time of year, in this price range/inventory/demand, I would go with #2.  In a hot market, I would go #3, but homes in the >$1M range aren't moving too fast right now.  #1 is death.

Street numbers are designated by the city, not the builder.

Funny you mention that...I'm close with a couple other landscape contractors, and they are now bidding on work to FIX some of Tom's jobs in PP.  It's nice job security for the reputable landscape construction companies, but it's sad to see homeowners have to pay twice for something that should...

Agreed.  The problem with arbitration is that they can only award compensation up to the limits of the contractor's bond.  This bond is usually only $10k-$15k, and when there are multiple claims against that bond, it's impossible to get any return on your payments, even if they are warranted. ...

LOL.  Nice backtracking. #WorstPoliticianEver #HiVanessa

Oh, and "Hi, Tom". Or should I say "Hi, Vanessa"?

I'm only posting facts. Fact: Tom Gonzales has lost his license MULTIPLE times due to CSLB complaints. Fact: Tom Gonzales used his daughter to obtain a license when he was no longer able to maintain his. Fact: Tom Gonzales has a GROWING list of unhappy clients, and has been sued by multiple...

Boom.  And why USCTrojanCPA is so successful with his listings...  >:D

Nothing back-handed here. :)  I actually envy you...my life would be so much simpler if I could have your perspective on things. :)

Bones you have a very optimistic view on life, and that's admirable. :)  You're very accepting of circumstances, and adjust your expectations and needs to match what is available, and that is something rare to find these days. Unfortunately, most people today are the exact opposite.  Some say...

They should have been more careful with the name choice.  In FCBtionary, it's pronounced "Car-Atrantic".  *shudders*

A builder's sales practice tells me a lot about the other parts of their business.  If they can't be transparent with me from the get-go, how can I trust their superintendent, their inspectors, their warranty staff, their sub-contractors?  It's not about whether or not there's a wait list...the...

Agreed.  It would save a lot of people a lot of headache if they would simply admit to it instead of hiding behind a veil of ambiguity.
