first time homebuyer irvine: More Than Ordinary! - 10/24/11 06:28 PM
This past weekend I had the opportunity to watch the Womens U.S. Olympic Volleyball Team play an exhibition match at Irvine Valley College, and as a volleyball coach, I was impressed with the incredible talent that was displayed.  But, sitting there,  I couldn't help but think of all of the years of hard work and sacrifice that brought each and every player to the court that day.  Lou Holtz, one of the most successful college football coaches of all time, said this, "I can't believe that God put us on earth to be ordinary."  The idea that all you have to … (3 comments)

first time homebuyer irvine: A lesson I almost learned the hard way! - 10/24/11 02:07 PM
Years ago, while running my construction company, I learned one of the biggest lessons of my business life.
I had received a lead from one of the lead generation companies I used on a regular basis and after reading through the scope of work, I decided that I wasn't going to contact this potential client, as the type of work that he desired didn't really fall within my area of expertise.  We could technically do the work but I just didn't feel that my guys were proficient enough, so I left it at that.  A couple of days passed and I … (3 comments)

On the other hand, if you have that kind of money laying around and you are still leary … (6 comments)

first time homebuyer irvine: Why Irvine?? - 10/19/11 05:40 PM
It’s been four years since we decided to move back to Southern California and if there is one thing that I’m sure of it’s this…Irvine was the right choice!   While some people like to bash the “master planned communities”, we have embraced all that the city of Irvine has to offer.   From top notch schools to beautiful parks, to the perennial “safest city in the U.S.”  label, I would be hard pressed to find a better place for a family to settle down.   Couple all of that with falling home prices and low interest rates, and you have … (2 comments)
