Something to be said of Irvine company PR and marketing. Even during the 2010 collection, Lennar had La Casella open but it wasn't officially part of 2010 group. I don't think they managed to sell out. because i keep seeing deals and 10K to wards upgrade etc etc from them. Also for developments...

I think only place if any where IR's original predictions went wrong was mis judgement about effect of low interest rates. IF Govt had not done massive bail outs and buying of >1 trillion of MBS the irvine prices sure would have fallen as hard as his original predictions. In the end it all...

I do read it occasionally. I don't really care what people think of what he says etc. What I know is his fundmental reason for that blog way back lined up exactly with my thinking and kept me renter till early this year. Just like he is saying now about low interest rate with the 15-20% drops...

Yes you are right. But i believe we should get some certificate indiacting the credit so we can file taxes correctly come April 15th.

Haven't  got my tax notices yet. Moved in in may 2010 to WBE. Also haven't heard back about 10K tax credit either. Although i confirmed with the guy at FTB that they have the fax that i sent in the first week after moving in.

Sand canyon is already pretty much 6 lanes (3 on each side all the way) except around the railway track and 5 interchange. Maybe thats what they are talking about.

Normally i try not to make any recommendations. But i feel bad i recommended these folks on a public thread. Like you said maybe i just got lucky.

I'm surprised. I never had this problem. We had very good experience and our shutters were delivered and installed about 5 days after the original date that was promised. But we got our answers every time during the 5-6 week time. I thought i had a very good relationship with them.

Thanks for all this info. Yes the part you mentioned about impact on monterey homes adjoining Trabuco  is what got my attention initially from your map. Actually don't know if that is a real bad thing or a good convenience. I guess depend on how they build the shopping center.

So typically how much time does it take from this public hearing to when the development actually gets built. Also what does mixed use area and child care mean.

This is an excellent first post.  That is why I've tried to take IR2 $/sq ft rental number and reduce it by a fudge factor to do my rental parity estimate. Maybe I'm just too conservative....

How do you distinguish it? What is one looking for to know if  it is there and how much.

The cell phone tower is in the water tank section. Right across from the start of IVY2. I think in general visual wise the tank and the cell tower are quite well concealed. I think people who brought that up as a CON did it for the issues radiation and potential hazard.  But i guess it is a...

Living in woodbury east: Pros:  We got a very good floorplan that meets our family needs for atleast next 10 years. we would have loved to have           a drive way of our own but such homes cost atleast 175K more.  even within WBE untill Santa Cruz offered the 4th bed and 3rd bath          ...

On the insurance issue. Yes for monterey in WBE we only have to get insurance for any upgrades we did inside and personal belongings. Effectively only about 25/- a month.

Wasn't there a thread from BK about the differences. Something about being able to walk around the entire property in a SFR Vs not being able to go around the entire property in Detached condo or something like that.

If you are sure you are not violating the guidelines they gave you then you can start the work before recieving the approval.

PS did you buy a place. Congratulations!!!! I'm seeing 4.375% or 4.5% for no fee of any kind at a few places. no point/fees/or closing for <417K.

The entire 2010 collection baring few sold out . Santa barbara almost gone. New developments are coming up. Is there a specific reason La casella is still not sold out. How many units did they have and how many have they sold. Any one have more updates on this tract.

I always felt that Santa Barbara had the whole location thing going for it. Infact after seeing the prices of monterey in WBE I felt that Santa Barbara would open at much higher premium. But i was suprised that it was about the same as monterey. Does anyone know the current pricing on these.
