Yeah, the kitchen layout seems pretty bad, and I didn't see a hood above the burners either...

Height.

Ya'll realize there are no white people in Irvine than anything else right?  Ya know, according to the Irvine website data.

So, the conclusion is that if you buy or if you wait you are making a good decision?  Sounds wrong somehow...

That was a good laugh.

I can't see Irvine hitting 1999 pricing, it will simply take too long to drop that far.  2001 is a different story, but that still is a shed of hundreds of thousands on most of the properties.  Give it some time where the gov't isn't messing with the market and investors start losing interest in...

I don't think you are seeing the good in that wait.  The longer you wait to ge the lot you want, the more likely prices will drop and you can pick it up for less.

And that's a dangerous game my friend.  Eventually things will hit bottom.  I'm saying it'll be years before that happens, so I hope you like the place you live currently cuz at this rate you'll be there a while.

I said 20~25%, but I also think Irvine prices are high for no reason.  Prices in other cities are 10~15% less for what I've been looking at, a little more and I might cave.  Ya know, after the economy crashes.

It is always a valid argument.  Anything that limits the buyer pool is bad.  If I remember correctly, he said the comps were lower than what this was being asked for, which isn't good for this property either.  Yes you will always find value shoppers, but as a value shopper myself I can tell you...

Lol, no thanks, the only time I bet is when I know I will win.

That almost makes it sound like they are going to try and sell it.

Toot, toot!

I'm not on the list myself, showing interest is the enemy of bargain shopping! Getting on it should be simple enough though, stop by the office and fill out one of the interest cards they have.  Make sure you have an agent if you plan on using one and fill their name in too.  As USCTrojanCPA...

I don't know if I agree on the price you mentioned.  I think LV has done a great job of keeping prices up, but with the economy the way it is they'll be lucky to not shed price in the up coming months.  I don't know if 38 and 40 are as nice as the lot size makes it being adjacent to Portola...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.  Wait until it closes, you never know what the appraisal will come back at.

I'm not certain about Santa Clara but in general the HOAs and MRs are lower in SG.  I would also say that location is a little better as Santa Clara is further from a main road than SCC.

Yeah, you definitely should not buy it if you don't love the place.  That's the only reason to buy right now.  As for location, say what you want about the noise not being that bad, you'll always lose potential buyers being next to any majour road.

Yeah, this exactly.  It was after QE2 ended that rates hit YTD lows.
