Owning and Lenderfi.  You can see rates without getting your credit pulled.  Even if you do get your credit pulled, credit agencies will group them together if done within X amount of days.

Shower valve is a few decades old.  I want to change it out so I can attach new hardware fixtures for the shower.  The quotes I've been getting seem pretty high to me.  $480-$600 for each valve (not including the valve).  Has anyone else done this?  What did you pay?

I submitted original plan provided by Tesla and my HOA requested "Provide a roof diagram with the measurements of the edge of the roof and solar panels "  After Tesla updated the plan with this info, I received an approval.  Approval guidelines just depends on your HOA and management company.

I just got a flyer in the mail for Builders Surplus and was planning to visit.  Seems like they are my best bet for stand-alone.  The built-in stuff sounds VERY costly compared to stand-alone...

Wanted to remodel an old bathroom.  Cabinet/Countertop as well as the shower frame.  I think stand alone vanity will be much cheaper, but wanted to check out both options.  Any recommendations on stores to visit?

Most of these low cost online lenders are all sticking to conforming loans. 

Owning shows 2.50% for 15 year no fee right now.  Also check with better.com as they offer a PM guarantee.

I'm going through the same exercise right now.  Windows/Sliding doors and interior paint are a definite.  I'm considering outside paint as well just to modernize the color scheme.  @irvinehomeowner: what's wrong with white interior walls?  It seems like white is making a comeback recently...

Sounds about right.  There's a big difference between people who are purchasing a 1.5M house and 3M+ house. 

BTW, pools still need to be maintained even if no one is using them.  Less chemicals are used, but service still needs to be done.  Or you let it go and then drain it and refill which is a huge expense as well.

Was running late to a doctor's appointment so I ran to check-in from the parking lot.  My temp was 99.4 and I got a dirty look from the receptionist.  Was thinking about this exact scenario on what would happen if my temp was a little higher.. 

2.5% is with some fees and for purchase loan.  2.875% is today's refi rate with negative points to cover all fees.  This is comparable to normal online lender rates so the deal isn't as amazing as it sounds.

What was his position at Kaiser?  I believe no doctors were furloughed and just reassigned.

Be sure to get a quote from raterabbit.com as well.  I got a website quote yesterday with a rate was 3.125% w/ $900 in fees (30 year, conventional).  About an hour later, I get an e-mail from the CEO - I like your profile.  We can do 2.875% with a total cost of $900.00.  This includes all...

3.125% is really good for a 30 year jumbo.  I think the best would have been 3% for no cost recently.  If you move some assets over, you can get .125% rate reduction per $250k moved.  It is VERY important that you get these details when you hear about the rates people are getting.  I've seen...

Disclosed rate assumes a $300,000 rate and term refinance loan on an owner-occupied single family residence in California. Minimum 740 FICO credit score, 50% loan to value...

owning is going back and forth between 2.99 and 3.125% for 30 year fixed, conventional, no cost.

The tow was probably more related to a fire lane violation.  I suspect part of this tire was touching the curb where it is considered a fire lane.  If this was the case, the car could be towed immediately as it was considered a safety violation.

That's great news.  I've been waiting for them to open back up!  Their advantage over other tea/boba shops is that you can full customize sweetness and ice levels.
