    Las Ventanas by Taylor Morrison at Portola Springs

    I retract my statement. I ran into Jon and Laura from TM at Starbucks today and they told me phase 4 almost sold out on the day they opened it. I guess there is pent up demand for the later phases to open.

    Las Ventanas by Taylor Morrison at Portola Springs

    Has interest in LV died? They have not sold anything in the past month and a half? They have not been able to move the 8 houses remaining in phases 1-3. Will interest pick up once the other phases start to release?

    Analysis of PenFed's 5/5-year ARM Loan Product

    I just talked to them today. 20% down required if loan is greater than $417,000. If less than 10% . The best part is that it is locked for 90 days. You can lock for 180 days if you pay .875 points up front.

    Thanks everyone for your input. I am going to just select the one we liked the most (Which was not 64) :)

    Numbers in Chinese culture

    Yes, to clarify, it is between units/home addresses, and it would be for future resale. Wherever I do buy, I plan on staying long term but just want to have all my basis covered just in case. I know everyone says if you love the house and it makes financial sense, I should not worry. But I can...

    Numbers in Chinese culture

    Ha, No wonder the house we looked at with the 64 address had the most incentives. The sales folkes were moaning and groaning about what a bad number it is.

    Analysis of PenFed's 5/5-year ARM Loan Product

    Has anyone used this program recently. Is it worth the risk of taking a 5/5 ARM loan when the 30 year conforming is so low (4.25%)? Typically what is the spread that should be between a program like this and a 30 year conforming? I am doing my math and the differences in payment is about $325...

    Does anyone ever read IHB anymore?

    Un-F'n believable. I think USC and IR have put their differences aside and gone on a united front on a legal battle against IHB. Next thing you know Indie, NON-FCB and IHO are going to disneyland together. What's the world coming to?

    Don't hold your breadth for the Great Park development

    http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-newton-column-great-park-20110521,0,6324772.column I did not know there was a debate on making it into an airport. That would have killed Woodbury, Stonegate, Portola Springs desirability.

    Northpark Flip: 2 Malibu

    Just make it easy. Make the bet $500, no contingincies. 4 months only on MLS. $1.1 million over/under. Decent amount, no one get's their fingers cut off for not paying and we enjoy the show. USC joins in for $100 if he wants. $10K is a ridiculous amount. Even my high rolling baller friends...

    Las Ventanas by Taylor Morrison at Portola Springs

    I went to the LV office yesterday to get measurements of the lots we are interested in. I noticed that a lot of the Phase 1-3 lots are still not sold . Even though people like these homes, they are avoiding the ones next to the Toll Road like the plague. They started to try to convince me that...

    Flat screen tv install

    Thanks for the clarification. I have never used an HDMI cable longer than 20 feet.  Most people are in the same boat as me. I can understand that if you are running the cable really long, monoprice might not be the best option. But in that case you might need a signal booster or amplifier...

    Flat screen tv install

    Don't get ripped of buying brackets anywhere else but online. www.monoprice.com I have used this company multiple times for purchasing brackets. They are just as good if not better than anything at Costco, Best Buy, etc... Also use them for AV cables like HDMI. Monster HDMI = $100 - fail...

    Las Ventanas Plans 2+3 vs. Maricopa Plans 1+2

    Priced to perfection is a term used a lot in the analysis of highly valued stocks in terms of Price to Earnings ratio. A stock that is trading on a forward P/E of 30 or greater is considered priced to perfection. If you look at Netflix, Saleforce.com, VMWare,  or Bidu, they have a really high...
