    Deposit

    It depends on builders but usually they don't cash out for a few days to a week.  Within that period, you can cancel for any reason and get the check back or the builder can shred it for you.  After that period and once the check is deposited, it's all she wrote most of the time.  Even if they...

    Was your child's elementary school one in 19 districts to win a Gold Ribbon?

    Whether you live in Irvine or not, Asian kids and students will always be whipping boys/girls in education and college entrance process.  Asians are just too quite when it comes to discrimination and unfair treatment, and no strong political power exists for them. ex) No one says anything about...

    Irvine demographic & impact on kids

    My son's travel ball baseball team only has one Asian player.  The team is based in Irvine but only 3 are from city of Irvine though. My other kid told me that many Asian kids in high school quit sport to study for SAT or boost GPA for college in jr and sr years.  Also I've seen Asian parents...

    Veterans Cemetery coming to Irvine

    Cemetery will stay where it will and may be it's a good thing in a long run for steady growth of house value. PS homes are already somewhat cheaper than other new developments and as the house price has been going up crazy in the last 2 years, if FOBs and other ABCs shy away from the whole...

    Veterans Cemetery coming to Irvine

    Veterans Cemetery coming to Irvine

    Veterans Cemetery is not just another grave yard or Rose Hill with bunch of gigantic tombstones (you know if you been there recently in Chinese section. the tombstones are not flat lying on the ground.  They are erected, bigger in size, and some have big characters and pictures engraved). As...

    Legado at Portola Springs III

    I don't know about non-Irvine plans but isn't it little late to be on the priority list of Helena or Legado unless OP wants a later phase? I thought Legado (and Cressa) already had 40 or more on the priority lists...

    Irvine demographic & impact on kids

    No joking but seriously... your kids might have been out playing more if they had white kid friends in the neighborhood?  I mean may be there was no kids at their ages playing outside so they became more attached to digital stuff.  I understand now that kids live with E gadgets all the time but...

    Legado at Portola Springs III

    Eyesore but noise may be little better than you think.  Since the road is elevated, noise will propagate upward.  133 next to Portola Spring could be an example but still it is right next to the traffic flow.  However, it's much better than houses on Culver, Jamboree or Jeffery I guess. I was...

    Hot Home For Sale of The Week

    Yes and I agree it's crazy, but it could be sustainable as long as we have tech, alt energy, or medical industry boom comparable to tech/internet boom here in OC just like it happened in Silicon Valley in my opinion.... I think Spring is coming and all sellers are drinking cool aid again... ...

    How easy is it to transfer within TUSD?

    I never said my son was a super star and he plays baseball. I replied to you a few days ago... Quote from: eyephone on March 04, 2016, 02:13:26 PM Quote from: irvineorbust on March 04, 2016, 02:06:59 PM not all the time and often it's better to be in a great club team or travel ball team...

    Testing at Portola High School

    I'm not in PS high area but either way it sucks for residents.  If there is danger, it's obviously horrible but even if  IUSD is correct, how much can we trust what government agencies say and whether the "safe" limit for cleaning was safe enough or not... I saw many families with kids at PS 3...

    Cressa at Portola Springs - The New Home Company

    agree but as long as some folks are willing to pay, that will be the "fair" pricing...  Good for folk who have houses already and even better if yousold yours for big profit... If it's not sustainable without job and income growth like in San Jose or San fran... it maybe different story in the...

    How easy is it to transfer within TUSD?

    I appreciate it.  Don't get me wrong.  I don't get offended or insulted... especial on this board.  He plays baseball.  He's not a super star but objectively speaking, he is one of the better ones and has always been in every team and every season he played so far.  But I still can't say he's a...

    How easy is it to transfer within TUSD?

    Going back to original subject... I found this from TUSD website... So it's pretty clear unless there may be under the table, behind closed door deals going on... So Tustin Legacy sales folks just lied or didn't know the district policy.  Either case, they shouldn't say anything about school...

    How easy is it to transfer within TUSD?

    not all the time and often it's better to be in a great club team or travel ball team than a private school team.  Also some particular sports, private schools are in lower division or lower ranked.  Also the "trust" kids won't be easy to deal with for my humble, ordinary home kids... ...

    How easy is it to transfer within TUSD?

    Hey, hey, hey.  Are you saying super star athletes don't come from poor family?  What if my kid is a sport super star but we can't afford private HS?  Are you saying my kid is not good enough?  Now I'm offended and insulted!!!! ;)

    Anyone glad to move out of Irvine for their kids???

    I read it somewhere on this blog so I can't claim it was me first who said...  Yellow Asians are Far East and South East Asian like Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese...  Brown Asians are Middles Eastern, Indian, Pakistani, Iranian...  Don't lynch me.  I'm just telling you what I read... ...
