We’re in the process of accumulating tract specific pricing for the various new home neighborhoods in/around Irvine. Sometimes it’s nice to know what the exact prices are without having to visit the models or call the sales office up. All the data we’ve collected is located in our forums here: http://forums.irvinehousingblog.com
Several members have added information they’ve collected and this makes it easy to see how much prices have come down in some of the new neighborhoods (Over $100k drops in some tracts). If you have info on any of these tracts, I encourage you to share it here. If you feel like creating a thread for a neighborhood that hasn’t been posted, please do! 🙂
We’ll get back to some blog posts on flips/sales soon!
I wonder if there are concessions “above and beyond” the stated prices. The price drops are substantial – but as we see with the Pardee Homes property in Ventura County, some developers are absorbing the cost of Mello-Roos Fees, which effectively reduces the cost of buying a home but does not alter the “face” price of a house.

This is a great idea……now I don’t have to keep drving buy these places and thinking I should stop in and see what’t going on…
Brilliant.
How do I post on the tract specific board? I’m new the blog world.
