I don't live in BR but very close by.  It's feels just like Irvine.  Everyone stays indoors with their window blinds shut.  Only thing missing is the Irvine schools. No problems with traffic.  405 South during rush hour isn't bumper to bumper until Lake Forest Dr.  I feel bad for those living...

I would get the electrical outlets if you plan on needing more because you could be paying more for having an electrician doing it for you.  Recess lighting is also very important and you'd be paying at least $250 for each with an electrician.  The cabinet above the toilet is really easy.  You...

I remember that one.  Hilarious.  Let's not forget that loft where there's three seperate TVs and a big black couch.  What are they going to do?  Watch three seperate movies? Supposedly all of the models have already sold and they are already on phase 4 for Crossings which is across Alton...

Highlands East + Crossings pricing sheet.

Updated pricing sheet.  Most of the lots with views have sold. 

If it means the landlord has a 95% chance of collecting rent vs an 65% chance then I would say that it makes perfect economic sense.  Employers are liable for an employee's acts if they are similiar to what they've been convicted of in the past.  So for example if an employee was convicted of...

I think the biggest hurdle would be HOA approval.  Permits would be easy to get.  If I wanted everything a newer home has (CA room, large sliding glass doors, bathroom, kitchen, layout, no steps leading to living room, nice exterior, no ugly fireplaces, etc) I would just get a newer home. 

In Westminster there aren't a lot of options to get a newer built home and these are SFR.  However these seem a little overpriced at 360-370 PPS.  The businesses nearby look like junkyards and the homes facing the freeway will definitely be too close to the freeway.  I'm sure all the homes will...

You should look at how many rentals are in Irvine.  There's like 500+ rentals.  Don't assume that it would be rented out for $3,000.  It might take a couple of months for it to be rented out and the tenants might move out after one year and then it'll be empty again.  There's also that liability...

Brexit itself won't mean much as far as earnings.  The real fear is other strong economic EU members leaving and then countries like Greece, Spain, and Italy won't be able to sell bonds at low yields since the euro will be a weak currency plus no more bailouts.  You can see this with German 10yr...

I think the same too.  There's not many view lots in Irvine compared to NC, LB, and NT. If your offers don't go through then you won't lose anything. If there's an older home that's cheap per sqft for the location then you can always remodel.  $100k turns most houses into something livable. ...

The market isn't slowing down.  While there's anecdotes of this in the overall scheme of things home inventory is at historical lows in OC compared to the average for this time of year.  Have you checked Quail Hill?  Let's not forget the cost of upgrades and you can always make an offer.  All...

I would avoid buying a home that backs into Irvine Blvd in Eastwood unless there's a substantial discount.  Irvine Blvd is busy from Lake Forest to Tustin.  Jeffrey is less traffic but it still has a noise issue because cars travel at least 50-60 mph on those roads.  If they travel at 30mph you...

Yes Irvine Blvd traffic is bad.  Reasons are is that people drive fast and there's a lot of cars.  I read somewhere that homes backing a major street or highway go on average about 10% less per sqft than homes without road noise.  The sound will only get louder at night.  Can you hear anything...

I should ask if the home comes with a stick of dynamite. Wow look at this one in NB with a view of a private lake and next to back bay that sold for $464 sqft. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Newport-Beach/2209-Heather-Ln-92660/home/3566032

The number "4" is very significant.  In China most buildings don't even have a 4th floor, 14th floor, and 40-49 floor.  Most stock tickers in China don't even have the number 4.  Hospitals don't have rooms with "4" in it.  Buses and car models don't have 4.  Even when the olympics were in China...

Old house selling for $1.9mil.  Surprisingly it's not too far off the comps for lake views but I would never pay this much just for a view of the lake.  https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/25-Beechwood-92604/home/4690896

I think that the data from the survey says that the best Hispanic entrepreneurs prefer Irvine.  How would Irvine magically churn out good entrepreneurs?  If someone makes a decent salary or runs a successful business then it's more likely that they'll live in a nicer neighborhood and bigger...

I actually used to think that selling agents were bsing me when they said that they had multiple cash offers.  I heard that it's actually pretty easy to move the money out from Hong Kong since it's not illegal there.  Just imagine what will happen when Irvine is all developed.  FCB will have no...

I don't get that listing.  Can't people buy a brand new for less even after upgrades?  A Neighbor at a nearby street actually sold for a little less price per sqft but had tons of upgrades.  Personally I would not buy that house at that price.
