    18% Service charge - Destination Seafood House in Westminster

    We were not made aware of the service charge prior to service being rendered.  It was poor service at best.  Anyone know if reporting this bad behavior on lack of communication about service charge (which seems like it?s on purpose?) or zelle and cash only when they use clover to BBB or IRS will...

    18% Service charge - Destination Seafood House in Westminster

    So I am curious,  can we refuse to pay the 18%?  What if we didn?t feel that the service warranted 18% tip?

    18% Service charge - Destination Seafood House in Westminster

    Went to a seafood place in Westminster called Destination Seafood House.  They said they only accept cash or Zelle payments.  That raised a red flag.  Then they said they don?t offer free water.  You have to pay for bottled water.  That was another red flag.  When the bill came, I noticed a 18%...

    Exterior Painter Recommedations

    We also got a weird vibe from Xenak.  She seemed rude and didn?t really have an understanding of what we needed.  Suffice to say we escorted her out.

    Hardwood Flooring Depot

    We have used this company and had a terrible experience.  We will NOT recommend.  Let?s say they had to come back many times to fix their work because it wasn?t done correctly the first time.  The crew and owner were totally disrespectful.  PM if you want details.

    Cetara Orchard Hills The Groves Shea Homes

    $3.8m motor court, no thanks.  I don't care how large the lot is.  Only 4 bedrooms in 4k square feet?  You don't pay that much to have your neighbors share a driveway.  Pass I actually heard that a few buyers got called for Cetara view lots in phase 1 but passed up for whatever reason.  Wonder...

    Cetara Orchard Hills The Groves Shea Homes

    Really, that is surprising since its the most functional.  It has 5 bed + office + conservatory,  lots of space.  Plus having the master bedroom with a view is nice.  The other two plans have their master bedroom on the side of the house which faces your neighbors.

    Don't understand box 3 of 1098

    I have a question on how box 3 "Mortgage Origination Date" on a 1098 is represented. The first loan was taken out on 10/01/14.  The very first time refinance was in 2016.  The 2016 1098, box 3 reads 10/01/14.  The second and third time refinance happened were in 2018.  Again, same mortgage on...

    Owner's title insurance - optional? paid by seller?

    Is it true when selling, to expect to pay around 1% of sales price for closing costs?  But when buying, expect closing costs to be less, around half a percent?  Sellers always pay more than buyers.

    Owner's title insurance - optional? paid by seller?

    So why does it say optional, when it is mandatory? There is also a lot of what I believe, are admin fees: -a few hundred for document fee (isn't that part of what I pay for escrow fees and are considered costs of doing their job?) -a few hundred (courier/postage/mail/wire fee (really, that...

    Owner's title insurance - optional? paid by seller?

    Yes, I am selling the home and I thought it would be the buyers who have to pay for the owner's title insurance not the seller who pays.  On the escrow estimate, it is indicating that I, as the seller, should pay for their owner's title insurance.  It also says "optional" besides it so I am...

    Owner's title insurance - optional? paid by seller?

    I understand when you are buying a home, you buy lenders title insurance.  But when you are selling a home, why does it say seller pays for "owner's title insurance" (optional)?  Shouldn't the buyer pay for owner's title insurance or is it something to do with Orange County, where the seller...
