    Irvine Crime Wave

    Apparently, both the victim, 50, and suspect, 46, lived in Aliso Viejo. There's probably beef between them. Suspect must have been stalking victim since a witness said that he's been told that the victim sometimes parks there and takes a break.

    It's the site. I've been experiencing the same.

    Housing Analysis

    I joined the company back in 2010, but the stock was going sideways for years. It wasn't until 2016 when we got acquired that things started looking up. We got RSU before, it was a yearly grant, which vested over 4 years. What I meant was that in 2019, we got a 4 years worth of RSU, meaning we...

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    Close of escrow for Cielo is mid July. As for my Bluffs 2 home, I bought it for $1.684M, which was fully upgraded. Don't now how much I can list it at. This one seems like an outlier WTF price. The other two Bluffs 1 homes are still sitting on the market at $2.38M and $2.39M. I can't close...

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    Not sure what you meant. Are you referring to my Bluffs home that I'm currently living at, or Cielo home that I'll be moving to?

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    This one is really WFT price. Bluffs 1, listed at $2.68M and sold at $2.72M. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/119-Petunia-92618/home/190224993 There are two Bluffs 1 on the market, listed at $2.38M and $2.39M, and nobody is even sniffing at them. How the hell did that one go for more than...

    Housing Analysis

    Yeah, the only reason I was able to buy in Irvine was my RSU, not my salary. My co-workers and I were extremely fortunate that our CEO decided to give us 4 years worth of RSU back in 2019 instead of refreshing every year.

    Did the UC Admissions make the right decision to drop the SAT Requirement? Should other top public universities like UMichigan, UVA, UNC, & GT follow?

    Engineering students from top UCs would rather stay in Silicon Valley than returning to China and they have no problem obtaining H-1B visas. In fact, I would say that rich Chinese parents would want their kids stay in the US rather than returning to China. That's why FCBs are scooping up homes...

    Entrepreneurs, sure, but employees? In fact, employees benefit more since theat means fewer competition. Either way, it helps tax payers more than hurts.

    Not understanding your logic. What does international students not getting a work visa have anything to do with the University's ROI? How do tax payers get ripped off? It's the opposite. Taking international students or out of state students HELP tax payers since those students have to pay EXTRA...

    Tesla Cybertruck

    I saw a CT driving into my company's parking lot yesterday, but didn't know to whom it belonged. Today I saw it driving by and saw that the driver is someone in my group. :ROFLMAO:

    New communities in Portola Springs

    Personally, I love ocean view, but there are people who don't like ocean view and living at sea level so close to the ocean. My wife, for example. Not to mention some people just prefer new construction. Ocean view is just like mountain view. You can see shit at night. But city view is...

    New communities in Portola Springs

    Yup, these are city view lots, except for lot 89, which is interior lot, but still comes with a ~$300k lot premium for having a 7170 sq ft lot.
