If this market holds up, I can see OH grove appreciating, maybe not as much as LA, but gated neighborhood on a hill, low density, it should do well.  No detached condos nor townhomes as well.  It should outpace NP.


I'm predicting a tale of two villages in OH - homes with a view will do great. The rest are also-rans.

1)  Orchard Hill is basically Quail Hill 2.0...appreciation and value will be through the roof.

2)  OH are going to have large lots, which you could not get in LA.

Not Capella lots......
 
Do I have to show up with my RE broker on the Grand Opening Day to qualify for the broker co-op rebate?  Just wondering how TIC is going to handle this when nearly 10K people are expected to show up.

Yes, you do.

IHO said it better:

1. It's necessary to register with a realtor/broker in order to get a co-op commission.

2. How much you get depends on your agreement with your realtor/broker.

3. It's not necessary to have a realtor to purchase a new home, but if you don't... or don't have one register you on your first physical visit to the model homes, there will be no commission.

Sure...and QH had a lot of townhomes as well with small lots.  But the high end of OH is going to have big lots.

Yes, you do.

How is it possible for TIC/IP to know if you were there or not if 10K people are there at once?

This is the strategy. They floated higher prices; pre-approvals and pre-quals didn't meet expectations. So they are ratcheting prices back.

I've said before, I'll say again: OH = Over Hyped.

C'mon down baby......can we go lower.......lower, lower..
 
got an email from shevy akason who had teamed up with larry/irvinerenter. says he will be at orchard hills on saturday. he is refunding anything over 1.5% of the purchase price back to the buyer.  So on a $1M house, 1.5% would 15K, if the broker coop is 20K, the buyer gets 5K and shevy keeps 15K, that is a hell of a deal.

USCTrojan and Irvinerealtor better be camped out there all weekend. i recommend hiring day laborers and placing one at each set of model homes and just give them a bunch of your business cards and they can sign up buyers on your behalf.

Been registering people with appointments all week.

Chevy's offer is not likely going to be much of a deal for the buyers...

Offerings that I'm aware of:
Vista Scena - pricing at "low $700,000s" - offering broker co-op of $11,000
Capella - pricing at "low $1,000,000s" - offering broker co-op of $15,000
Saviero - pricing at "mid $1,000,000s" - offering broker co-op of $15,000
Messina - pricing at "mid $1,000,000s" - offering broker co-op of $20,000
Trevi - pricing at "low $2,000,000s" - offering broker co-op of $20,000

Not much left on the bones for the buyer if he's keeping the first 1.5%.

As I mentioned previously here, my offer is different. I hope to earn my income by helping clients sell their exit property, and good mojo/referrals to their friends and family.
Win-win.

Do you mean a good deal for Shevy? I think for both USC and IR2, the buyer gets the majority of the commission, because they base their percentage on the commission not the sales price.

If you look at IR2's link above, on a $15k commission, the buyer gets over $11k. If that's the commission on a $900k house, Shevy gets $13.5k and the buyers gets $1500, that's not a good deal.

i was being sarcastic. that is a horrible deal for the buyers. the dude shows up collects 1.5% for signing someone up and the buyers get the scraps, that is crazy. i was trying to throw USCtrojan and irvinerealtor some business :-)
 
@qwerty:

Ahh... I must have missed the winky emoticon thingy.

I agree, Shevy looking for 1.5% of the sale of a new home is crazy. So what if the commission is less than 1.5%, do the buyers owe Shevy money? :)
