Not to get too off topic here but I was also considering Merced and Stockton as investment choices but my research is still in its infancy so any input would be appreciated.

I'm wondering where we could find stats on where all the people in LV that lost their homes are now living?  Are they still living in LV and renting?  I wonder what apartment vacancy rates look like right now?

I wanted to get your thoughts on the LV market right now.  Not sure if anyone here has delved into that yet.  If it is true that you can get a decent 3BR SFR for $60k and receive positive cashflow then it almost sounds too good to be true.  Are there some good sites that talk about what one...

So if somebody successfully negotiates this $20,000 lien amount to $10,000, will the current homeowners in the community end up paying for this?  If they take the money from the excess cash allocation to cover lost attorney fees, wouldn't that be the case?

Is there an institution that regulates these HOA's?  I was looking to buy a condo while back but there was a $20,000 lien from the HOA that any buyer would have to pay cash upon purchase.  I laughed because the previous owner was only delinquent for a year.  The rest were to pay the HOA...

Non profit?  I think I saw one of the HOA guys driving a Mercedes S65 AMG.

Do these HOA's make a lot of profit?  I know they mail us the quarterly or annual reports but I wonder how much those people actually make?

I know the older Northwood areas don't have HOA's but do they have amenities like pools or tennis courts? Thank you for staying on topic btw  :)

The MLS shows the HOA as $272 + $67.  This is for an attached SFR on the lake.  Very nice though.

My coworker told me that he would buy a house in Irvine if it wasn't for the extremely high HOA fees.  I told him that the HOA prices in Irvine vary greatly and it got me thinking.  Where is the best bang for your buck HOA in Irvine?  I need your input bc I've only lived in a handful of places...

61 Modena is listed at $966,847.  If you know a broker who will give the full commission you can deduct $22,500 which comes out to  $944,347 for a 2380 sq ft 4BR SFR. I would much rather live in Turtle Ridge but for that price you can only live in Canyon's Edge.  I like to call it Canyon's...

$22,500 is the amount everybody.  61 Modena in Cortona. From the MLS... Set Amongst the hillside of Laguna Canyon, Cortona at the Italian inspired village of Laguna Altura is an innovative and unique new neighborhood that offers an intimate environment of beauty and tranquility in an...

I didn't include NW pointe since it is east of the 5 ( i think).  But what are the reasons you rank it so high?

Oh yes, you are correct.  I forgot about LA.  Not sure if I would put it ahead of QH tho.  At least some QH homes have views.

So a friend of mine was asking me about which communities in Irvine I would recommend.  So I thought I would put together a list of my top communities. Note: He will not consider any communities east of the 5 because he considers that the "IE" of Irvine. 1) Shady Canyon 2) Turtle Ridge 3) Quail...

Thanks a bunch!  Looks like a handy tool.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.

Would anyone have any insight as to how much shadow inventory is in the Summit?  Or is this top secret govt info?

They just want to squeeze all they can in a tiny footprint.  It makes me wonder why builders make single story homes.  Is there a quota to fill for the seniors?

This thread is reminding me of all the sports talk radio shows with all of their predictions.  Maybe we should start a 'Bold Predictions' thread and keep track of who makes the most accurate predictions through the years?
