    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    I don't think that's right. I've been keeping track of both communities since the initial release and Evergreens always had the lowest $/sq. ft. It's usually going to be the case that the lower square footage homes will be more expensive from a $/sq. ft. metric. Phase 1 Viridian was $1,529,155...

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    Phew, that makes me feel better! Curious how you got this information, did they start contacting people based on position in the priority list? Also, I'm assuming when you say $45K in home options and $40K in other upgrades, we're given a choice as to what to spend it on or did they choose...

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    That's a great point actually, I never thought about it that way. It makes the price increase much more reasonable if that's the case. We spent about 160K in upgrades on our current TB home so we were definitely planning to spend around that much again if we purchased in the Meadows. Fingers...

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    I'm assuming there's crazy demand from the interest list, otherwise such a big price increase all at once seems a bit bold... What're everyone's thoughts on this now given the price increases? We're still considering it but it's less attractive now. Also curious how this plays out over the long...

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    Thanks everyone for the input - definitely a lot to consider! For what it's worth, I've been checking Google Maps every day for a few weeks now to see what the commute would be like when leaving Irvine/LF at 5:45AM and going back from PV at 2:00PM and it has consistently been around 1 hour and...

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    We have a heavy preference for new construction so unfortunately there isn't much out that way. PV would definitely make more sense but unfortunately the Rolling Hills Country Club community by TB just sold out there (plus it's way more house than we'd need). The closest I saw that has good...

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    We're currently finalizing the decision on relocating from the Bay Area back to OC and have been looking at Fresco @ EW. With the last phase pricing (+$30K), my wife is a bit hesitant as it'll be close to $2M for a <3K sq. ft. house that she doesn't particularly love. I hadn't considered LF...

    Help With Finding New Construction Irvine Home

    That's actually exactly what another TI member recommended and I was actually able to get pre-approved as non-contingent earlier today. Will need to get started with sending these out to the communities we're interested in to get on those lists!

    Fresco @ Eastwood Village

    Thanks all for the feedback! Looks like we just have to try and get ourselves on the priority list ASAP then!

    Help With Finding New Construction Irvine Home

    Are Genoa (KB) and the Reserve (IP) both on the Groves side?

    Fresco @ Eastwood Village

    Ahh that definitely makes sense and is worth a try! I was just assuming that we'd need to sell the house in order to get pre-approval, but if they're okay with using 401K assets and such, maybe we can still get it. Thanks for the suggestion!

    Help With Finding New Construction Irvine Home

    Hi everyone! I've been a long-time lurker here and have always appreciated the insights and help that everyone provides so I'm hoping I could get some help with our current situation! tl;dr: we're looking to move back to SoCal around late Q3 2021 and need help with what the best new...

    Fresco @ Eastwood Village

    What are everyone's thoughts on EW and Fresco in particular? Planning to relocate back to SoCal (from the Bay) and not a big fan of this priority list thing... Talked to the sales reps this past week and I believe we can't get on the priority list until we sell our house here first, since we'll...
