    Villages of Columbus - Columbus Square - The Gables

    gas, why do we have to remember that its a mile from jamboree. Well, it sounds like you are going to make your purchase based upon emotion, which is fine as long as you can make the payments and are in the home for the long term. By the size and price point of these homes, i would say that's...

    Villages of Columbus - Columbus Square - Cambridge Lane

    Ah, just checked the website, last post seemed to indicate the price range in the community was from the mid $400's and than it looked like yall were singling out lot 125 as some sort of low water mark. Why are you being specific about lot 125?

    Foreign Competition for Irvine Real Estate

    aww, you got me buddy, you got me good. Burned! *sizzle* actually, i didn't know how to respond to your thesis on the politically correct demographic trends of asians founded upon the shared experience of a short term romance with a girl half a world away and choosing a home in BP over...

    Foreign Competition for Irvine Real Estate

    not really, master planning concepts are fairly new in the asia or mid east markets, they are design with new sub urbanism concepts in mind. Floor plans may be designed by IAC to accomodate larger families but are still very different from asian or mideast floor plans which have central...

    Villages of Columbus - Columbus Square - The Gables

    If your wife is particular about lot selection, than no the negs don't outweigh the positives. I think woodbury is more dense and VoC is a more open site plan. Although, one day, Villages will be come a great place to live due to having a massive regional park next door and many retail...

    Land at 15 cents on the Dollar

    Eva, i understand that contract, it's called a phased lot takedown, and it's primarily for the benefit of the builder who does not have to carry the cost of all the land at once.

    Land at 15 cents on the Dollar

    That's a very interesting thought, but would it be fair to say that their cessation of building was indirect in that it wasn't TIC that stopped construction, it was due to TIC unwilling to renegotiate land contracts, which also dictated sales prices, with merchant builders who directly stopped...

    Land at 15 cents on the Dollar

    I think the builder referenced by CR was Centex (see article http://www.bigbuilderonline.com/industry-news.asp?sectionID=363&articleID=683257) IR, clarify what you mean by "protective", I'm assuming you mean that TIC is attempting to shut down elements that have a negative effect on land...
