    Thinking of buying in Portola Springs. Few questions…

    When I checked last time, insurance companies recognized new OH site as "brush". There was nothing there at that time. Maybe they changed it due to constructions, but I don't know they are that responding.

    I am not sure but I heard that Mello Roos in Great park does not expire.

    Single family home vs detached condo

    I thought it was just driveway. I believe there are a lot of SFH after 2020, Eastwood, Orchard Hills and Portola Springs.

    New Listing - Valencia Plan 1 detached condo @ Tustin Ranch (12429 Runyan Pl)

    Thank you for your insight. I will see how it would be in July. Due to changes of the commission, some people say there would be more inventories next month.

    New Listing - Valencia Plan 1 detached condo @ Tustin Ranch (12429 Runyan Pl)

    Thanks. I like the neighborhood of Westpark. I guess it would be better to pick this one in Irvine if it's available.

    New Listing - Valencia Plan 1 detached condo @ Tustin Ranch (12429 Runyan Pl)

    Hi Martin, May I ask your personal opinion about this community? I found the one in Redfin https://www.redfin.com/CA/Tustin/2836-Stephenson-Pl-92782/home/5629143 Do you think it's better to buy in Irvine with the same price? I know I probably won't get the detached one with 1.3 M in Irvine...

    Making $150K is considered 'lower middle class' in these high-cost US cities

    Yeah I graduated from Tech with ECE degree. I have some friends who went back to Atlanta when they found jobs there. I don't know I can do that due to situation with my job but I certainly miss my days in Atlanta. Maybe I can retire there. I realized you're also Korean heritage and so am I. I...

    Making $150K is considered 'lower middle class' in these high-cost US cities

    I went to college in Atlanta and Georgia is a great place to live. You can get to two oceans (Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico), mountains (Smoky mountains) and small charming cities (Charleston and Savannah) within 4-5 hour driving distance. The city has good dining options even Asian foods. One...

    Question about Tustin field

    Yeah it's expensive. Little above my price range. Though it's older, it is a nice house and I know the neighborhood is popular. But I rather be closer to I-5 which I use to commute. Not sure why it is classified as a single house since it says there is 2 common walls.

    Question about Tustin field

    Thanks for information. I've lived another side of I-5 in Irvine so didn't know how busy Alton is. I grew up in high rise next to busy shore drive so I think I am pretty comfortable with white noise. But I am more worried about any pollutant from highway. I checked and It is about 700 feet to...

    Question about Tustin field

    Thanks all. There is only one available now and I like its price and layout. But I think it's too close to 405 https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/38-Daisy-92618/home/5841666 I've lived a couple of miles from highway and it wasn't bad. But it would be less than a mile for this one in Oak Creek

    Question about Tustin field

    Thanks for the comment. I checked Redfin as you mentioned it. But when I googled it, it is 8/10. https://www.greatschools.org/california/irvine/12183-Oak-Creek-Elementary-School/ Not sure which one is accurate but maybe Redfin hasn't update it yet.

    Question about Tustin field

    Thanks all. I like Oak Creek and Quail Hills as well. I will check to see any thing comes up.

    Question about Tustin field

    Thanks. I guess that's the reason it stays in the market too long. As you pointed out, the inventory is crazy low now. I assume the interest rate won't go higher any more and see what happens next year. Thank you for your advise.
