I think you about nailed it. Young money that made it big in finance, tech, etc isn't dropping this kind of dough to live in the 'burbs. Anecdotally speaking, my clients interested in Alta Vista are pretty similar in profile. Both couples are 55-60, both husband and wife worked in moderately...

Haha well, I'm out in Peralta Hills, which may as well be Iraq for Irvinites. I do agree that moving forward the popularity of the Vistas will likely make OH a more prestigious community, I could definitely see it being the crown jewel of north Irvine. Perhaps most of Orchard Hills attending...

I'm not so sure about that. I REALLY like OH as a community as a whole - so much open space, so much greenery, it really is a breath of fresh air when compared with the other new developments east of the 133. If I wasn't stuck on being on at least half an acre, I'd likely be in a La Vita unit...

$200K is being pretty conservative on bringing up a higher end TR or lower end SC home to newer design trends if you want the level of finishing to be commensurate with the home/neighborhood. I just brought up a early 90's build 6500+sf home to be on trend and spent more than double that, and...

These are gonna be incredible, better than Hidden Canyon when not taking into account Uni/proximity to the beach (huge factors, I know). I have a couple buyers interested in the single story floorplan on a view lot, but from looking through this thread, it's going to be competitive!

This changed starting 2017. From what I hear HK is on the strict lockdown, nothing is coming out of there. The regulations also changed to where it is now $10k per transaction per person max. The Chinese govt is keeping an eye on the money itself now, they don't care where it's heading or for...

I'm more bullish on Greenwood at Tustin Legacy than Baker Ranch. They'll have some in the $600K range soon, might be worth checking out.

Marbella - easily, Capri - likely. The first Marbella resales will for sure be over $3MM, considering many of the early phase buyers will be in for nearly that much, maybe even more, after its all said and done. Toll is also known for ridiculous, over the top models, and I could see those...

Holy crap, HC is selling this quickly with no contingency? And with how quick the homes sell after being released, there can't be too many in the "sell current home first, buy in HC, rent while the home is being built" camp either.

A general surgeon doesn't make as much as you think. An orthopod/plastic/neurosurgeon would be 32-35 after residency/fellowship, if they had zero downtime from high school on. Even at $1MM/yr it would be tough to get into a $2.5MM home in that short of a time. I was thinking derm/rad/opth, but...

You kind of answered your own question: your friends are in their mid 30's. Given their age, they've had that level of income for at most ~10 years. The average Hidden Canyon buyer with that income is likely a few years older and had more time to build wealth. Older folks also had the benefit of...
