You could do an agreement outside of escrow. Would you be violating the terms of your lender's agreement? Most probably.

Yeah - the listing agent was clearly lying. They aren't going to get $2.85m. The house looks much better in pictures and doesn't show as well.

I visited this one over the weekend. It does back up onto the toll road and you can hear it from inside the house. It sounds like the listing agent was telling visitors that the toll road isn't as busy on the weekdays and it won't be an issue. The upgrades are decent but the house has definitely...

Holding off on their surveys is not a bad idea. They will call you periodically to remind you - at which point you can voice any concerns you have. They will quickly attempt to address it.

The one on Meander is a bit unique in the sense that the seller wants a 2-year lease back. This is likely why it's priced lower.

Nice! New house, new car, what's next? Living the dream - Congrats Martin!

I have a 20-month-old and will not be vaccinating my toddler. Both my wife and I are vaccinated as well as our extended families. Vaccinating our little one seems a bit excessive at this point - even if the data above was more convincing.

HOA approval is required at multiple communities in Irvine, including Eastwood Village. Will most boards and property management companies look the other way - likely yes. But, per the bylaws, you can still be written up for it.

I have an Ooni. I recommend making your own pizza dough:https://feelingfoodish.com/the-best-new-york-style-pizza-dough/ It's easy and it tastes amazing. Same for pizza sauce: just get a can of good quality diced tomatoes, and sautee with garlic. Add salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. There...

It'll be interesting to see how these sell. I'm guessing Azul and Cielo will start in the low-$2m's and Fiore in the mid-to-high $1m's. The first few phases will go fast - but will we return to the days of 2018 where each phase takes a little longer to sell with lender and design center credits...

Just had Hako for lunch. They have daily specials - Tuesday is the Hako Katsu. I think it's $2 off.

Not unusual for the price increase. It's likely because they've reached another phase in construction and IP Sales Office selected upgrades - which they've added into the sale price.

Aren't there supposed to be Ravello's in PS too?

Grout cleaning makes a huge difference! Highly recommended.

I actually don't think that's true. There are no newer SFR's in Irvine that are priced the same or cheaper than a detached condo.

I was at Ravello today and I thought I saw that the view lots were in the $4m range. Maybe those are for the models...not sure.

What's the ratio of people going with ARM's now? I imagine ARM's are very attractive over a 30-yr fixed at sub-5%.

I'd be down to meet up too! We should do KBBQ lol.

The majority of those you listed were flipped into Active Under Contract status (accepted offer, with contingencies). For whatever reason, Redfin/Zillow show that as "Relisted" rather than just a move from Active to Under Contract. There were 2 that did have price reductions and frankly not...

Crystal Clear is solid. Honest pricing and willing to work with you. Their guys know their stuff too.
