I'd like some advice from you wise bears. I plan on buying something in Irvine around $200k, preferably around $150k. Let me know which year I can expect to buy at these prices. I will be waiting patiently and as long as it takes. Thanks!

Ah now there's some brilliant advice. Just wait until house drops down to $200k to purchase.

raymond... i currently live in a cal pac detached home and the noises really depend on your location. some houses are really clustered together, the all the front doors and windows face each other, and you can hear everything. if you choose a house that has nobody behind you and only houses to...

<p>momopi... i've also heard the same story from your buddy's mother, on how many chinese have immigrated to irvine back in the 80s, 90s. it's interesting out of all the cities in this orange county area, irvine has evolved into the main "melting pot" for asians with the majority of chinese...

<p>Hi John Shaw... welcome to the site. Yes, a lot of people agree that Turtle Ridge/Turtle Rock is a nice part of Irvine. When I was searching for a home in 01-02, I remember prices in the $300s... Kind of wished I bought in the area, but found a great plan in Oak Creek. </p> <p>Check out...

Everyone's situation is different. Back around the years 2000-2003, people were telling me why do you "need to buy a home?"

Hi OChomeshopper... welcome to the site and first off let me tell you that you that by coming to this site, you'll get a lot of people telling you not to buy right now, how prices are so ridiculous, they'll point you all this evidence, etc etc... but hey go for it if you're mentally and...

<p>Hey bruingirl, it's safe to say that any new community in Irvine will have high HOA and mello roos. I'm sure you also already know to expand your search in other cities around Irvine. You'll get a lot of people on this blog telling you to wait until the prices go down, for the market to...

being able to afford a 30 year fixed rate loan would be in my list.

<p>nirvinerealtor, I know all about brand new homes, as I purchased my 2/2.5 home back in '02. It's just amazing that those new high end $1M+ home are selling so well. Suffice to say, unless I hit the lotto or something, I won't be able to afford a $1M+ home in my lifetime. The wife and I...

Ugh, those "high end" houses in Irvine are just flat out old, ugly and overpriced... I supposed when you compare that $1M house built in the 70s to a brand new $1M house where you have the fun of customizing your options, there's no comparison. It's not surprising that a lot of people out there...

<p>San Marino is very expensive and I would love to live there if I worked in the LA area. Also would've loved to buy a house there in the 90's but alas I was only in college back then. I hate bad timing! </p>
