    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    I think you would benefit from getting outside the Irvine bubble.

    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    Please don’t compare a Rolex to a home. The market for a Rolex is internationally recognized. No offense, but Irvine is not. Please don’t make an argument that it’s internationally recognized because a couple of countries in Asia know about it. I’m completely fine agreeing to disagree here...

    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    I’m not saying other OC areas aren’t increasing. My point is Irvine is growing at the rate it is mainly due to FCBs. Basically irvine prices have always been artificially inflated. And if policy changes were to occur, Irvine would be impacted the most.

    The Meadows, Lake Forest by Toll Brothers

    Amara was selling in the low 1m early on and excluding view lots the maximum price was probably 1.5m? Teresina started at 1.2-1.3m and ended at 1.5-1.6m? excluding view lots Amara in Irvine would probably go for 2m+. Teresina homes would easily go for 2.7-3m. You can do the math on the savings...

    Observations from the front lines of the Irvine housing market?

    exactly. FCBs are the only reason why Irvine prices continue to climb at the rate it has been climbing. I really do fear for investors more so than primary homeowners since you can probably live through the downturns if there is one in Irvine as a primary owner. But as an investor, you...

    Costco

    Shouldn’t be difficult to implement facial recognition at checkout. Going in however is trickier because you can bring guests and people all generally walk together at the entrance

    Presidential Elections

    Interesting video of Jamie Dimon who is pretty moderate and more leaning towards the left speak about MAGA. Check the 1:13-2:25 mark of the video to see his comments on MAGA and how the left disrespecting MAGA may harm Biden...

    Adler at Saddle Crest in Silverado by Tri Pointe Homes

    would you say a lot of that has to do with proper maintenance and a good inspector for the home to catch issues pro-actively? or do you think it's luck that you had only 1 claim?

    Olivewood at Portola Springs by New Home Co.

    I thought when the market was hot IP wasn't giving out any broker co-ops? I know Shea did and Lennar was giving a laughable 5k

    Adler at Saddle Crest in Silverado by Tri Pointe Homes

    If let's say you had 2-3 claims all over 5k damage, wouldn't this be a better argument for lower deductible? Out of curiosity, how much % of an increase did you get in your next renewal after a claim was filed? If you don't feel comfortable disclosing that's fine too.

    Adler at Saddle Crest in Silverado by Tri Pointe Homes

    5k deductible means you're paying multiple years of premiums in advance if something were to occur that is less than 5k. Would it be worth it in that case? I think 2.5k would be the sweet spot in terms of covering anything below that and getting lowest premium. I personally have 1k deductible

    Olivewood at Portola Springs by New Home Co.

    Olivewood was and is currently selling at a huge premium. Only until recently Olivewood hasn't been selling.

    Presidential Elections

    Thousands of innocent lives were lost during his term as president & vice president. But regardless it's ok to agree to disagree. I respect your opinion and it's completely ok to have different views/values. We shall see what the people in America end up deciding in November 2024.

    Presidential Elections

    Again, did Russia invade Ukraine during Trumps presidency? Was there any wars during Trumps presidency? As a voter right now in 2024, I will vote for the candidate that will create peace and prevent lives lost each day. There has been only one president that I know in my lifetime that has done...
