    Stonegate for a Chinese

    my view is today the 30yr mortgage is extremely low, taking out a mortgage = short the 30yr fixed bond. Buying now and rent out: you lock in the historically low rate, you probably can get break even if you can rent it out, downside for you is limited. Buy 3 years later: Inflation will...

    to be exact, the wind blows mostly from ocean to inland... more dust should be trapped in land.

    I agree with you, quail hill and many other villages are close to freeway/main roads as well. It is just hard to escape. Compared to big cities in China, I think people on this board might be too sensitive to freeway pollution issue. Come on guys, we are in SoCal, want better air, need to move...

    Quail Hill Comp Killer

    We have been into 13X treehouse. The floorplan is strange. You got a huge huge master bath room with a center island in the middle! And floors, kitchen, etc beg for upgrades. We won't even pay 850 k for it.

    Laguna Altura feng shui

    I am not a feng shui expert at all myself but just know some in China. The statement I made was heard from some experts. Most of feng shui experts are Yi Jing experts too. Once we looked at one existing home in another state, we called up one expert. He used Yi Jing first to get an idea...

    Laguna Altura feng shui

    Be careful with being a 'master' of feng shui.  The universe is in balance, when something/someone gains, else would have to give. If you alter the feng shui for other people and affect their fate, yourself have to give up your own to balance out. So feng shui is a 'high risk' job. This is not...

    Laguna Altura feng shui

    On the top of the wok is NOT always a good thing in feng shui. Only if the house's back is against the hill, and the surrandings make your house like sit in an armed chair, with front or door facing downhill. All the old buildings and temples in China on the hills were built this way for 2000...

    Laguna Altura feng shui

    For the record, she said Quail Hill has its own problem. You do not  really  want to have your backyard on a mini-cliff or over the roofs of others. You want back surrounding of the house higher or on equal level of the front. Otherwise 'chi' will not stay and all leaks from the back, like from...

    Laguna Altura feng shui

    1. You are in a Wok. Wok shape is good feng shui for selecting tomb site, but not much for the living ones. 2. The opening of the wok is to the west, which is not a good direction. South or east will be better. 3. The freeway on the east side ? it may make it hard to get fortune. 4. Houses are...

    underground transformer in front of house, EMF?

    Hello, Friends, In viewing some of the new homes by TIC, we noticed a BURD transformer about 12 feet away from the front door along the side walk.  From the ground level, all you can see is a 3 feet round grate cover. Have anyone else noticed those ( there is one around 4, 5 houses down the...
