IHO makes fair points, depends on what you want for child, and what child wants Almost everyone in the APAAS class is also GATE qualified, so no difference in terms of AP class qualification etc (Im not sure I know a single child who wasnt, at TR) yes, MS is a bit of a backward step, several...

Definitely worth it at Turtle Rock Elementary.  Not sure about other schools have heard mixed reviews. The 4 and 6 grade teachers in particular at TR are outstanding, life changing educators.  Critical thinking and writing skills transformed.  Love of learning, curiosity nurtured. The...

We were where you are about a decade  and half ago.  Kid with 155 IQ. looked at all options, some mentioned in this thread, including moving to LA for Mirman Finally stayed in IRV, kid was fine at Turtle Rock elementary, attended AAPAS program. In retrospect: Until 9th grade, its kinda...

Ladera ranch, if you are ok with location, is definitely family friendly and a great place to live! In Irvine, I like Turtle Rock (in particular Highlands / Broadmoor / Concordia East ).  Turtle Rock Hills seems to be in a bit of a revival too - more young kids.

IMO, this neighborhood is one of the hidden gems in Turtle Rock.  Concordia-East (not speaking for West), is very quiet, with mostly long term owners, and safe / away from the noise or hassle of the university.  As USCTrojan said, mostly middle/high school kids though some families with younger...

Thank you all. I found someone

Please Pm me if you have a real estate license, are willing to register as my agent in a new home community in IRV and can rebate me most of the commission (happy to pay you 2K for your help) Thanks

+1 for SGIP He recently helped me with the first mortgage on our home.  It took just 3 weeks from my first phone call to him to closing (15 business days), even though I have a fairly complicated financial life (he had to get a policy exception).  Fairly competitive rate, very professional to...

Per Marquand, who I called for a different project: min is $200-250/sq ft for new build..depends on finishes, sq footage, # of baths and whether you want pool/landscape

If you have a referral to an architect / designer, I would be very grateful

I am considering purchasing a 2 story ~2300 sq ft home built in the 60's on a 10000 sq ft lot.  The plan is to add about 500-700 sq ft to the home..a bedroom/bath downstairs, and one upstairs...maybe expand a living area I don't need the finishes to be high-end. I am hoping to get an...

23 hawkcreek in the same tract, smaller floorplan, was asking ~600k and is in escrow for less, i believe

i think when 23 woodhaven was sold to the current owners (mike dunn was listing agent in 2008, again), he represented it as 3317 sq ft..so that may be their understanding of the sq footage of their home..that is what the county recorder has. the home is actually just 3100 sq ft..at northwood...

I think it is a violation. In practice..they don't seem to fix it even if you tell them. mike dunn listed this as 3600 sq fthttp://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/9-Glenhaven-Ln-92620/home/4790102 on his own website, the floorplan shows it as 3317, with garage...

saw this, too..and agree..must be the worst remodel I've ever seen. They've removed the graceful arches in the hallways and turned them into low square ones, moved all the electrical outlets to the hideous floorboards, closed off the wall between the living and dining, making both spaces seem...

usc..have you done any deals representing both the buyer and seller, and if so..did you feel you primarily represented the seller in that transaction? did it bring out the worst in you?
