miserable? Ahhh reason when you have over $250k in your savings and chose to watch it grow then come crying about miserable. Till then continue crying, and living in denial. This blog is funny you must admit that!
<p>Don't <em><strong>glaze</strong></em> me bro! </p>
<p>By the way, are there any good doughnut shops near Brightwater in Huntington Beach by Hearthside Homes? Because, I would need to know that to consider Brightwater in Huntington Beach.</p>
hello everyone. i'm looking for a home now and really like new homes but only have budget of around 1 mil. The trails plan 2 is something I might go for but this blog makes me think it may be overpriced. Does anyone think it may go down quite a bit more shortly? I really need to pull the trigger on something soon.
As in asking price. I originally looked at this property around 6 weeks ago and the price was reduced about 2 weeks ago. I'm thinking for 1755 square feet, they should price plan 2 at more around 900K. I know some builders offer a credit or refund of some type if the prices they sell there home for drop up to 6 mos later, has anyone heard of Brightwater offering anything like this?
I think there were some sales people here a couple of weeks ago. Maybe they will chime in and answer your question. Or could call them directly and ask.
Before you decide to purchase research places with land movement and their aftermath. Houses within vicinity were immediately affected as well. Comp and desirability both went down along with neighborhood pride and confidence. The bad omen lingers on for years wondering if another bad mother nature incidence will occur again. Homeowners' pools and leaking irrigation were often the trigger points along with rushed grading and site preparation could potentially be problematic for future site movement. Homeowners near by landslide locations are not able to sell their properties in La Jolla, Laguna Niguel, Anaheim Hills, Rolling hIlls by Rancho Palos Verdes and Blackbird Canyon in Laguna regardless of price due the buyers' fear. Consult with a geotechnical engineer for opinion before you decide to buy and this would be the most important thing that you must do to protect your asset from falling into the ocean.
bk - I vividly remember when some of those homes in Laguna Niguel fell off a cliff a number of years ago, since it was right near where I used to live. I knew one of the families whose house went off the hill - fortunately, they had moved a couple years before it happened and didn't live there anymore.
Wouldn't it be ironic if the homes at Brightwater in Huntington Beach sank just enough that they lost their view of the ocean but still got the full effect of the smell from the swamp?
<p>Here are some rules for stability for bluff pads. When the rear yard is made from manufactured pad it's distance from the toe of the slope must be back 2x the vertical distance from toe of slope elevation and pad elevation. </p>
<p>Most trade people call the slope 2 to 1. Any slope steeper than 2 to 1 would be considered unstable similar to rule of feng shui. Any substantial weight like a house or a pool should be setback 3.5x to 4x the vertical distance in the rule of feng shui stability. Most of troubled view properties violated the setback distance. Common sense is that there should be a deep backyards for houses at the edge of a bluff but maximization of lots and greed often blurred this common sense for builders. </p>
<p>When homeowners add substantial weight to the rear yards like a pool slope stabilization measure must be made using techniques like geotechnical tie backs and gunite concrete to prevent erosion and weakening of slope. </p>
<p>The pool and the house at Trooper's favorite Koenig's Hollywood cliff hanger have caisson foundations that both reached bedrocks so the weight of both house and pool is transferred vertically to the earth without incurring any lateral forces that can cause damage to the slope of the cliff. 99.9% of builders will not utilize this very expensive structural system so most of the landslide footages we saw on TV were stucco boxes by builders.</p>
