Chino Hills

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
I don't think I ever - not once - saw a black person when I lived there, except for that guy who gave the SO a high speed chase in a Corvette and was shot when he got out and surrendered.

My street was at least 1/3 Chinese.
 
No_Vas, did you ever eat at JoJo's Pizza Kitchen across the street from the Costco shopping center? (Can't think of the name now.) It was a good joint.

Aren't they right across the parking lot from the Round Table?

Anyway, yes, we did. Often. Too often!

Hey, they do have a 99 ranch market. If that doesn't say its an asian mecca, nothing will.

Wow, that foreclosure map sure looks ugly. But is it any different from any other city?

Yes. This one is much worse. Plus, per Redfin, there's a total of 154 total homes for sale in Chino Hills - with 4x that number in the pipeline to head your way.

Consider you can buy a home in Lake Elsinore for $125-140, Chino Hills doesn't deserve a 2x or 3x multiple over L.E. Maybe 10-20%.

Chino Hills is more centrally located for most people hence is more desirable. How much of a premium it should command over Lake Elsinore is debatable. Chino hills also has better schools.

I'm looking to buy, but not in a rush. I don't have a problem leeching off family until the time is right.

One more time in case you missed it.

It is more central ONLY ON A MAP. If you try to drive in/out of there it's rush hour traffic problems become obvious. I say this with passion because when I moved to SoCal I made the same mistake and quickly learned my error the hard way.

The rush hour commute from Lake Elsinore to Orange is shorter in minutes that the one to Chino Hills. I would highly suggest you move into the Extended Stay off of Chino Hills Parkway and the 71 for a couple of weeks to expierence it yourself. Alternatively, rent there for six months. Lewis Operating Corp has a nice community off of Peyton and Chino Hills parkway with a mix of detached homes, duplexes, and apartments.

IMO the only people who can successfully live in Chino Hills have a flexable work schedule (like FD or PD or somebody who works 6a-2p). If you work 8-5 you're hosed.
 
I was referring to being centrally located in relation to LA, OC, and SB/Riverside. Hence appealing to a larger segment.

Yeah, I think you're right - there was a Round Table there too, I believe. At Chino Hills Pkwy & Chino Ave. Their foccacia salad was a pretty interesting creation. It's like a pizza with a salad piled on top of it. It's a little weird but very good!

Right. Again: I fell for the same illusion. I sucked me in too. I figured it would be an easy commute to Cal Poly Pomona for the Mrs. and easy access for me to go to work. I was wrong.
