    New homes: question

    Every builder has their own contract and language, but with Irvine Pacific, it states that it is possible to recover your deposit in the case of extenuating circumstances. But the case will have to be reviewed by an arbitrator. If you lose your job it should be fine, but relocation may be a stretch.

    FCBs are real!

    Wow, couldn't have said it better. I was that 15 yo 5'11'' kid when I moved to Detroit from Asia. By my sophomore year I was the best 1 on 1 player in my school and the 1st Asian in school's history to make the varsity team. I was unstoppable during pick up games but comes the season the coaches...

    Orchard Hills - Capella by Taylor Morrison

    I've actually heard different versions of stories when it comes to where your front door should be facing for good feng shui. So unless you are a true feng shui expert, the more practical rule to go by is to have the side of the house with the most windows facing south to get the highest...

    Woodbury vs Stonegate

    WB going cheaper than SG? that's even more the reason to go with WB!! Even though location is the number 1, 2, and 3 indicator of future resale value, higher price /sqft does not necessary mean better location. Or else the next time we all shop for new homes all we will have to do is check out...

    Woodbury vs Stonegate

    Agreed with most part but some parts are missing the point. Of course living closer to the freeway is a personal preference, just like living in the city vs suburbs vs farm land, but one should not ignore the recent trend that more and more of the younger generation now prefer closer rather than...

    Woodbury vs Stonegate

    I agree with test that being closer to the freeway has a much higher value in today's world compared to traditionally. Younger generation now desire to cut commute time by living closer to the freeway or right next to work, and these younger generation are going to be your home buyers down the...

    Sausalito at Stonegate

    I wouldn't go as for as calling SG buyers fake ballers. When SG first came out it was marketed as the next best thing to Woodbury, and it followed Woodbury's structure in terms of mixing million dollar houses with apt and condos. Bad idea for 2 reason: 1. the location is not Woodbury; 2...

    Sausalito at Stonegate

    I personally like the Sausalito's floor plan a lot, all rooms are relatively specious and the layout is mostly efficient. My wife almost made me get it just for their wonderful master baths. Lot size is a real concern though. Aside from the small backyard, I really didn't like the proximity to...

    Anyone has any experience with California Pacific Homes Design Center?

    *Sorry, I read the topic wrong and below experience is for Irvine Pacific Design Center. Not only do they charge a premium for labor and material, but everything you spend there will also be counted towards your final home price, which means you will be paying property tax for your upgrades...

    2br versus 3br detached

    Aside from an investment standpoint, which suggests that 3br is a better buy, what you really don't want to do is to put yourself in a situation where you'll be forced to have to sell and move up in 5 years because 2bd will not suffice for 2 growing kids. There is no guarantee on how the market...
