kubert13 said:One thing that isnt taken into account is that the Portola Springs listing (54 Land Grant) is actually the model for Sevilla Plan 2. Normal price for that plan was around 600K. So for750K you can get a fully furnished new home wiht upgrades.
Now are all those upgrades worth the extra 150K price tag? Thats a different story.
I agree... SFR or bust (although a detached condo in a "premium" area would work).Cubic Zirconia said:Personally, if I am paying $750k, I would look for a single family home..

USC, sent you a PM.
Cubic Zirconia said:IHS/USC/IR- are there any San Simeon SFRs in North Park? Per my research none, but somebody is insisting that theirs is a SFR, not a detached condo.

Looking over satellite maps, there is one house that has it own driveway.. It up against the freeway on Talmadge. Does your "friend" own that property? Legal description would still have it as a detached condo, even if it satisfies SFR requirements. Is that correct IR/USC?
It depends on what the tract of homes is designated as. You can have a few exceptions with home that have large setbacks, a large backyard, and a full driveway within the tract (so it looks and feels like a detached SFR and not a detached condo) but if the tract is designed to be detached condos then all of the homes will be classified as detached condos.ps9 said:Cubic Zirconia said:IHS/USC/IR- are there any San Simeon SFRs in North Park?

BINGO on your second part.irvinehomeowner said:How common is it for one or a few homes in a tract to be classified differently than the other homes? Wouldn't it have different HOA and insurance rules too?
I think if most of the homes are condos... ALL of them are condos.
