    How come UCLA does not offer an undergraduate business degree?

    UCLA has a Business specialization that you can add-on to your major. That's what I did. I even took a couple accounting courses with the infamous (at least on the UCLA campus) David Ravetch.

    ICE or EV?

    Is it true maintenance is significantly more on EVs? I don’t own one… yet Seems like tires need to be replaced twice as often? https://amp.miamiherald.com/news/local/environment/climate-change/article284533695.html

    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    Sleepy - I think you can benefit from an Econ 101 course to learn about supply & demand. The supply to demand ratio is pretty low in Irvine. Ever think that maybe Irvine is ideally situated, and that those who have the most money (like FCBs) are the ones taking advantage? Irvine is close to...

    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    Now you want to factor-in real vs nominal terms? Isn't inflation part of the equation here? When you're invested in an asset during high inflation, the investor will get rewarded, whether it's a house, a bullion of gold, fine art, etc.. In rough terms, mortgage rates started going up in Q4...

    New communities in Portola Springs

    Again - this goes back to my original question that you've yet to answer. What are the 'other villages' that you're referring to? Because PS is not 15-20 further from the 5 or 405 compared to any of the newer villages that are east of the 5. And ALL of the newer villages are tract homes...

    New communities in Portola Springs

    PS is about ~5 mins further from the 5/405....but it's still in IUSD and has a varied topography that many of the other villages don't provide, so it feels MUCH less cookie-cutter than the other newer villages.

    Olivewood at Portola Springs by New Home Co.

    Can someone please explain this to me like I'm 5 years old? Why is lot 100 ~$600K more than lot 99? It can't be solely b/c it has one less neighbor, correct?

    October 2023 Irvine Housing Market Update

    Thanks for the detailed analysis Martin. Any thoughts on increasing pent-up demand for first time homebuyers to move-up, which might cause a surge in home listings as rates come down and those homebuyers start to see an opportunity to finally upgrade? If that were to happen, inventory levels...

    Why is GP cheaper from Price/Sqft compare to rest of Irvine

    In order to come up with the additional $7K/year in MR, you would need to have $175K invested in an investment (like a bond) that yields 4% annually. That's the general thought.
