Since I know that many people who work for the Irvine Co. and IAC read these forums I would like to take the time out to thank IAC and Brittany for 2.5 great years at their community. The staff is remarkable and really have compassion for their residents and their particular situations and...

We had made an offer on a short sale last year January of 2008 and found out 6 months later that it was approved and ready to open escrow. We didn't expect to ever get that house so we moved on. Short sales take a while. Its a very slow process but if everything works out its worth the...

So is the 399k price warranted? Or do you think it will end up in contract for more around where the other 2 are listed?

Maybe some of you on here can help me understand a few things about short sale pricing. I have been watching the condos in Quail Hill for some time now and recently have seen a dramatic price cut in one of the units I've been looking at today. Just some background, all of these condos are...

I lived in one of these for a year during college. It was a detached condo and I have to tell you that the layout sucks! Too many stairs and too many levels. The community looks great at first glance but after a while everything feels congested and tight. With the tall high buildings and narrow...

Long story short, we live in Brittany. We were able to renew at a lower rate and for only 3 months!!! The 3 months have since ended and we renewed again at the same rate for 2 more months instead of going month to month and having to pay the $300 "month to month" rip-off rate!!! Moral of...

I saw a guy wearing an ankle bracelet at the Ralphs on Alton and Jeffery, I thought it was strange that he was allowed to go out in public.

When we moved from San Francisco to Irvine we used the Delancey Street Foundation. All the proceeds go to a wonderful cause and help individuals get back on their feet. I'm not sure if they operate in Orange County but its worth checking out. http://www.delanceystreetfoundation.org/

Your thoughts??? http://www.jamboreehousing.com/docs/communityFlyers/WoodburyFlyers/WoodburyFlyer1-2009.pdf

I can speak for both properties you are looking at because I used to live in Park West, or Park Watts as we used to call it in college, and my brother and sister in law live in Santa Maria. Park West is a terrible community. My car was broken into there, there were loud parties and drunken...

We went to see the units. Still waiting on the land lease papers for review. I will post when we have seen the docs.

There are a few factors in which we (my wife and I) consider this unit to be a good value. 1. The pricing below the 2004 price and being under $300 square ft. makes this property very attractive. 2. We are very particular about what areas in Irvine we prefer to live in ie. me being a...

usctrojanman29 What is your opinion about that neighborhood being in such close proximity to the freeway and with traffic noise? could you hear any of your neighbors through the shared walls? How do you think the eventual appreciation of these units compare to those that are higher up on the...

http://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/59-Reunion-92603/home/5953644 I've been looking at this condo in Quail Hill for a while now and am wondering why it hasn't sold yet. At $296 per sq. ft. in Quail Hill I think it is a good value. I'm wondering what your thoughts are about this condo? Is it a...

Thanks for your input and advice. My brother is going to contact his agent and see if he can request a copy of the lease. This approach of understanding all the contingency triggers is the right approach and do a further assessment then.

Good morning everyone, I thought that I would ask this question here and get your opinions from some people in the real estate industry and get an opinion on condos particularly those in Santa Ana near South Coast Plaza on land lease land. My brother is very interested in the following...

I would like to thank you all in advance for replying to my question if I don't directly reply to you afterward. A little background: Looking for a home in Irvine. I worked as an engineer with the same company for 5 years. In April of 2007 I quit this job and opened up a retail...
