I don’t take on many rentals these days because most of my business is helping people buy and sell homes in Irvine and in the cities close to Irvine. But the owners of 20 Hazelnut asked me to step in again. I first worked with them15 years ago when they leased this home out. The tenants just moved after all that time. Imagine ..... 15 years in one rental house. That’s remarkable.Now we’re looking for the next renter who wants to make this home their own, for a year or longer term.About the Home3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms1,786 sq. ft. detached single-family homeMonthly rent: $5,200Security deposit: $6,200Lease term: 12 months or longerHOA paid by landlord; tenant covers utilitiesSmall pets may be consideredHow to See It:Online: https://debbiesagorin408.realscout.com/homesearch/listings/p-20-...

You know you’re a true Woodbridge Irvine homeowner when you get a formal letter accusing you of guerrilla gardening… with a succulent.Truth is, I barely noticed the plant—just a little Portulacaria afra (known as Elephant Bush or Dwarf Jade Plant) quietly doing its thing just outside my gate. It had been growing there for years, blending right into the landscaping. Then the HOA sent me a letter stating:“It has been reported by Management that there are homeowner plants in common area. This is a violation of the governing documents.”Apparently, I was now the prime suspect. The letter kindly informed me that I needed to remove it - because obviously, when in doubt, blame the homeowner!Now here’s where it gets interesting: Elephant Bush happens to be native to South Africa. And yes, I’m or...

The OC inventory keeps going up, and now more sellers are either cutting their prices or taking their overpriced homes off the market.Compared with last year, 21% more homes have come off the market this year, and of the homes still for sale, 34% have lowered their asking price at least once.To succeed as a seller, it’s crucial to set the right price from the start. Many sellers may overestimate the value of their homes, thinking their property is superior to others in the neighborhood or basing their price on an upgraded home when theirs may not have the same level of updates.While it’s important to highlight the best features, overpricing can work against you. At the end of the day, a home is only worth what a buyer is willing to pay for it.Sometimes, both sellers and agents price hom...

Many ibises dropped by our spot in University Park yesterday. They were having a blast munching on breakfast in the rain, ignoring any cars rolling by. They were somewhat shy but didn’t mind me snapping a few pics. I usually spot them hanging out at the Duckpond near the IRWD plant, but seeing them in front of my home was a cool change of pace. I checked the bushes around that area; no one laid any eggs. Maybe they were all boys. Beats talking about annoying e-bikers in Irvine every day. Happy Easter Sunday!It is a big deal for city rats like me!

In today's digital age, it's tempting to rely on automated home valuation tools like Zestimates for a quick estimate of your home's worth. While convenient, these tools often miss the mark. As one of the top Irvine real estate agents, I recently listed and sold two homes at prices significantly higher than their Zestimates.These Zillow print-screens are from 30 Autumnleaf #68, Irvine, CA 92614. Printscreens of the Zestimates for the other Irvine home is at the end of this post.Here's why you should consult a local expert for a more accurate valuation.The Limitations of Zestimates Lack of Local Market Knowledge: Zestimates are generated through algorithms that don't have the nuanced understanding of local Irvine market trends.

Remembering the Brave: A Tribute to Those Who Stood Against Evil In times of darkness, it is often the courage and determination of a few that brings light and hope to the world. One such figure was Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German theologian and vocal opponent of Hitler's Nazi dictatorship. Bonhoeffer's powerful words serve as a reminder that silence and inaction in the face of evil are not without consequence. This blog post pays tribute to those who sacrificed their lives to save millions, honoring the known and unknown heroes who did not come home. The Power of Words and Actions: Bonhoeffer's words, "Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act," resonate deeply within us. They remind us that remaining silent...

If you're in the market for a new home and safety is your top priority, look no further than Irvine, California. Irvine is widely regarded as one of the safest cities in the United States, and for good reason.According to data released by the FBI in October 2022, Irvine has the lowest per capita violent crime rate of any city in the nation with a population of 250,000 or more. (See the list of safest cities here.) This marks the 17th consecutive year that Irvine has held this distinction.One of the key reasons behind Irvine's safety is its well-funded and well-staffed police department. The department is committed to ensuring public safety and keeping the community protected at all times.But safety is not the only thing Irvine has to offer. The city is home to numerous parks, hiking tra...

Purchasing a house in Irvine, (or pretty much anywhere), can be an incredibly daunting process, and it's easy to feel overwhelmed with all of the decisions that need to be made. Before purchasing a home, there are three essential tips that potential buyers should keep in mind. Firstly. It’s important to consider your budget and figure out what you can realistically afford. It's equally important to ask a lender for a pre-approval letter showing the maximum home price you can buy. If you’re not paying cash for a home, this pre-approval letter must accompany the offer you make on a listing. Secondly, increasing your credit score is an important step to take if you want to reduce the amount of interest you pay on your mortgage loan. Having a high credit score can often mean the difference ...
