What's a 30-yr fixed jumbo rate looking like these days?

I was there 2 weeks ago for a conference. Mon through Weds. I stayed at Aria and visited Caesars and the Wynn. The tables were decently populated at all 3 casinos for early in the week. I hit up Gen Korean BBQ at the Planet Hollywood and the Wynn buffet - both were very good and busy. Outside of...

Yep, use a pro. I used a kit from HD for my rental condo and it's basically like slapping a layer of paint on concrete. Super thin and cheap looking. I used a pro for the house I'm living in now and it still looks perfect 3 years later. Better materials, much more flakes, and a thicker top epoxy...

Being 15-20 minutes from a Trader Joe's is a bummer. Only nearby grocery store is Ralph's I think. Maybe they'll build more retail around there.

Nice floor plans for Teresina but no community amenities and a $260/mo HOA is a bit ridiculous. The Meadows is intriguing. On the Pros side, it's Toll Brothers so the build quality and floor plans + community amenities will most likely make for an attractive/comfortable place to live. The...

Today's the last day for free Silver wash (or heavily discounted higher tier washes). I've driven through 5 or 6 times already in the past 10 days. Drove my car through again today because of the rain. Line is long at your typical rush hour times - before/after work and lunch times. If you go...

Marin has always been popular it seems. This one sold a couple months ago for $1.658m:https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/127-Charcoal-92602/home/165947551and it doesn't look nearly as good as Martin's listing.

Really nice listing and seems to be priced reasonably!

If you were to set up a chair on any major street in Irvine (Jamboree, Irvine Blvd, Jeffrey, Culver) and observe for 10-15 mins, I would guess you'd see over 100 Teslas in that short period of time.

There's nowhere to sit and it looks pretty deep 8-10 ft on the deep end, I'd guess. The length of the pool is no more than 15-20 ft long. To top it all off, this house is on a T-intersection. There are a couple other similar listings in the Groves asking $500k less - and you could argue that...

I went to the open house this weekend and that pool is embarrassing. You can't even swim in it. Not sure what the hell the owners were thinking on that one...

91 Rockinghorse was on the market recently for $2.5M and it didn't sell. Same floor plan but a much bigger yard. No change 65 Rockinghorse is going to get anywhere near what they're asking. I'm guessing $2.3-2.4m range is more realistic.

In the market for a Model X but I am not a fan of the yoke. A steering wheel retrofit is approx $2k with a 3rd party. Really wish Tesla would make it an option to get the regular steering wheel.

https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/53-Royal-Pne-92602/home/112723819 Dropped to $2.5m on Aug 5 and then back up to $2.68m 10 days later. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/112-Meander-92620/home/112724295 Price increased from $2m to $2.2m after sitting on market for nearly 2 months. Interesting...

Congrats! Love when agents help bridge the gap between buyer/seller. Really shows that all parties are invested.

Definitely not a lot of activity in the $2m+ market in Irvine. Also have actually seen a few listings get canceled as well - likely as the sellers prefer to just take the home off the market rather than doing a price reduction.

Interesting. I don't see any other locations. Usually, Irvine Company doesn't like new restaurants in their shopping centers and prefers businesses that have an established reputation.

This is the key. I've been trying to tell anyone searching for a home that if they find something that fits what they want and they plan to live in it for a while, now is actually a good time to buy. First, the market is stagnating - you have less competition. Second, inventory is still...

There are definitely still buyers and if a listing is in a good area, is in good condition, and priced right - it will move quickly. Sounds like you had 2 out of the 3, or maybe even the trifecta - so congrats to you. The market has definitely slowed. Sellers are still pretty stuck on their...
