    That's insane, some of you people need to start complaining to them and maybe they'd change things.

    Door between master bedroom and bathroom

    All those builders are just damn greedy pigs in my opinion.  Trying to charge over $10/sf to install some decent tiles or $14/sf to install hardwood.  Talk about robbery.  It's bad enough where the prices are for these things and how tiny the lots are and then they try to      the buyers with...

    We see interest rates at 4% before we see them at 6% on a 30-year mortgage

    I just don't know if we will ever see mortgage rates in the 3% range for a 30year fixed loan.  We are more than happy that we got an interest at 4.75% at zero points.

    Door between master bedroom and bathroom

    That is stupid how they charge so much for that door.  Just another reason why my wife and I are glad we didn't buy one of those new Woodbury homes.  We find that the door to be a benefit for us as we have some different schedules, I have an office job while my wife is a nurse.

    Agent Commission Rebate

    I could understand how some people may lean towards using an agent from a large broker but my experience with the sale of our home in LA and my parents experience is that it comes down to the agent.  The agent that we had used to sell our home worked at Remax and one on of the top listing agents...

    Marijuana legal in California in 2010???

    I'm all for legalizing it. The state could use the tax revenues and resources to fight it can be re-directed at more important things. My opinion is that tabacco is much more adictive than marijuana.

    North O.C. Realtor recommendation

    I second that recommendation. He was very patient with us and found us our home using some creative ideas. We were only looking in Tustin Ranch and Irvine. He also went out of his way to work with our busy schedules.

    Expectation & Predictions going forward

    Although I'm not asian and my wife is only half, we sold our home in LA in 2005 with a good amount of equity (more luck than good timing). When we were looking for a home in Irvine we thought the prices were even more nuts than our home in LA so we decided to wait.
