    Can melloroos increase by 23% over 3 years?  I am adding up everything but the "Basic Levy Tax" We started at $4,700 Then next year, it increased to $5,400 (16% increase) and this year it increased to $5,800 (7% increase) From $4,700 to $5,800, that is a 23% increase in 3 years.  Is that normal?

    Plan 4 was nice.  Shea Homes' floorplans are a lot more functional than TayMo's floorplans.  They aren't sure if they will get the land above the cul-de-sacs (Derby and Rockinghorse street) so right now, it is only 36 homes in 8 phases.  I actually think the map is wrong.  Isn't Hideaway park...

    Professional Antenna installation

    Does anyone have a contact they've used for professional installation for tv antenna?  Our home is two stories but a bit taller as it's a newer build so don't have a ladder long enough to get up there.

    woman begging in restaurant

    Really surprised that the cops don't do anything because this is considered soliciting and that's not allowed in the plazas.

    Begging

    I see this lady with a convenient baby car stroller with kids on the Culver and Scottsdale (5 freeway) where the new Korean BBQ restaurant is.  I think she's obviously a fake because she looks clean and even has a messenger bag.  They always have children with them to help them sell their sob...

    Bi-weekly payment program

    My bank offers this service for free.  It basically makes an extra on month's payment in a year so you can pay off loan quicker. Recently, loan was transferred to another bank.  They don't offer free bi-weekly.  It is a $300 sign up fee and a $5 monthly fee.  Can't I technically have my bank use...

    Orchard Hills Neighborhood 3

    It's nice up there.  Felt a little crammed with all the homes.  The lots don't look entirely large either.  But I like the homes Verra or Verdi (can't remember) that back up to the reservoir.  Something about having a view of trees and water is refreshing.  Does anyone know if the larger homes...

    Remove mold

    I did that but mold comes back.  Bleach only cleans the top layer and doesn't remove it entirely. Plus bleach isnt healthy esp with kids.

    Actually a handful of late 30 year olds have purchased the first few phases.  Not too old.

    Remove mold

    Didn't know you had to regrout every time. Most people just clean it out.  Videos show mixing baking soda and vinegar and scrubbing to get the mold out.  Apparently that doesn't work on some mold.  Some people have luck though.

    Remove mold

    What is interesting is that I added a layer of grout ontop of it to cover the suspected mold.  Except the mold grew threw the grout.  I guess grout is really porous.

    Remove mold

    I actually sprinkled baking soda all over the floor.  Then I added vinegar.  It fizzles upon contact.  I left it close to an hour and then scrubbed but it didn't do anything at all.

    Remove mold

    Aqua and AW, with your mixture, does the mold come back or does it completely kill it? Hydrogen peroxide by itself does nothing like some of these articles say. Vinegar by itself is useless also.
