    Plum braised pork belly is decent at Jiaozi, but thought the dumplings there were average overall. Interior of restaurant is nice and modern, but I probably won’t come back again due to food poisoning-like symptoms the first time I tried to dine-in (yet this didn’t happen the few times I ordered...

    Wow, just noticed it’s in an ugly free fall, with a close below 200-day moving average today. Me personally, I like see things base and curl back up above that 200dma (Not financial advice, of course, ha) since low can be lower. I see a gap between 179-189, maybe it decides to bounce above there...

    New Detached Condos Coming Soon at Los Olivos

    These days there’s these combo all-in-one washer/dryer units, if that even matters as a workaround. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Samsung-Bespoke-AI-Vented-Laundry-Combo-All-in-One-5-3-cu-ft-Ultra-Capacity-Washer-with-Super-Speed-and-Vented-Electric-Dryer/5015830943

    Johns Creek ranks #1 Best Place to Live by U.S. News & World Report

    You don’t even know the time horizon of when they’d want to sell and what the local housing market will be like when they do want to sell. You don’t even know their personal situation and needs. Perhaps the home had a certain view, proximity to school, and was next to friends or family members...

    Johns Creek ranks #1 Best Place to Live by U.S. News & World Report

    Was the root problem a matter of market timing, or more so a matter of poor risk management, over leveraging, unqualified buyers benefiting from loose lending standards back then, and too short of a time horizon? If someone had the means to hold through the drawdown during those years, they’d...

    Johns Creek ranks #1 Best Place to Live by U.S. News & World Report

    Let’s be honest and objective though, buying at the peak of a market cycle is not exclusive to Irvine like you’re trying to imply. There’s a macro cooldown of most housing markets right now. Someone eventually buys the top and will feel buyer’s remorse if they have too short of a time horizon...

    Checked out Kinaree Eatery today for their grand opening special (50% off dine-in). It was very good overall as far as the 3 dishes my spouse and I tried - Braised Pork (was tender, not dried out), Softshell Crab with curry (abit strong on the powder taste would be my critique), and House...

    Question for real estate investors

    And as a fix & flip, I saw 2 nearby comps that are listed at $650k and $660k, respectively… I don’t know that one would come ahead on rehabbing that place then reselling considering the agent fees, renovation costs probably would exceed $100k

    Question for real estate investors

    Oh man, looks like the HOA is doing a poor job of managing exterior of that community. There’s some serious TLC needed inside and out. As a rental, I don’t see how this cash flows. Just look at the assumptions below, that don’t even factor in vacancy, repairs, capital expenditure costs, so...

    I’m sure at that price point people can easily pay for better soundproofing of windows, etc if not already.

    Buying as investment

    Look at stock market now! All-time high after all-time high since February of this year. Many deep discounts were had in 2022, especially on Mag7 stocks. Most of them are now baggers or even multibaggers ever since.

    The Asian Population in Irvine in Percentage wise Peaked at 45.6% and then stayed stagnant for the last 15 years. Why?

    I almost moved to the Cypress new build off of Katella 2 years ago, but the major drawback for my current situation was the community there did not have a park within walking distance. It was appealing to be have Oxford Academy in proximity or even Cypress High for the kiddos in the future, but...
