Looks like very few quail hill houses out for sale. Now I start to look at mendocino.

I actually like the location of the quail hill condos close to the shopping center. But I hate the floor plan of those condos. Maybe I got addict to the Great Room idea by IP.
 
Are you only considering newer construction?  A few other villages to look at would be Northwood Pointe, Northpark, West Park II, and/or Columbus Grove.
 
I am a guy always go extreme. :-)

I want a view house in Quail Hill, or a nice condo, for its location. (I mean, the open space and the convenience to Spectrum and highway)

If I can't get that, why not go stonegate? It's new, and the location is not too bad.

The newness of stonegate will beat all other villages except quail hill.

I gave Lambert Ranch a hard thought, the location is not good enough. Too far from 5.

I actually agree, that's why I have been delaying this home buying for a long time.

But now, it's not about waste any more, somebody told me it's about asset diversafication, which makes a lot sense.

That's why I said in another post, the number does not come out right owning a home. But it's not a perfect world.

I even thought about moving away to Texas. The pain of paying state tax just kills me.

I lived in Vegas for a bit, your money will go a lot further out there than in Irvine.  A million dollars will buy you a large home on the golf course with a view of the strip.
 
I am OK with CA housing price. Just don't want to pay the state TAX. :-)

Buy a home in Irvine and buy a home in Las Vegas.  Get a Nevada driver's license and set up your residency there and your tax returns and work related items will be mailed to your Nevada address (assuming the way that you generate your income has nothing to do with doing business in CA).  Irvine will be "second" home where you can live 99% of the time.
 
anyone who has knowledge of the information, what has the rate of appreciation on condos and even detached condos in Irvine been over the past 5 years? how does that compare to traditional SFRs during the same time span? I know there is a difference but would like empirical data...

My www.IrvineRealtorSite.com has the answers you seek.
Set the auto-filters as you wish and you can check for yourself.

That is what I've poured my time into, to make it available for questions like this.

This is a good idea and I know someone who has done this! Awesome
