As I've said... Woodbridge prices are amazing. 
Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers
- Thread starter usctrojancpa
- Start date
NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Renovated single story homes in Woodbridge trade at around $600/sf and then add another $250/sf ($500k) for the corner lot lake view (on the high side). That puts you around $850/sf or closer to $1.8m. No offense to the agents and buyer, but the buyer grossly overpaid for this home.
Seems to me like the real money was made when buying the house at that price, not on the reno.
it seems to me (albeit to my limited knowledge) that the high price is offset by the uniquely low HOA for the area.
Not to be counseling your profession or anything, but I would kind of be careful with saying these kinds of stuff. What if that very owner came and asked you to be their listing agent? Although I'm sure you meant to make fun of the photo, not the home itself?
I'm not a RE agent, I work in Tech. I have no skin in this game, dog in this fight, etc.
If the owner came and asked me to be their listing agent, I'd recommend USC.
Oh, I thought someone said you were. Mah bad.
They thought you were Ronnie. haha
Well it is pending now.. Buy now or priced...... wait, you are already priced out. I think Irvine Real Estate Market has picked up again
This property last sold for 1.22M in 2014. I think the 1.55M price is justified as it was originally a new home purchase. So + upgrades and landscaping, the appreciation is justifiable.
My guess is that it closes around $1.52-$1.53m

Since we don't have a WTF Ugly thread, I'll post this here:https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/122-Kestrel-92618/home/160702750
Should probably win the award for ugliest "front of the house" design in all Irvine if not all of OC.
