New
page for
single
family homes
. A page dedicated to detached
homes in Orange County. This page was long overdue, as
many clients are focused on single family homes. I
added several very common re3quests like homes with a
3 car garage, homes with 4+ bedrooms, and newer
construction.
5/01/2016
New
web page for

New
web page added for the city of
Costa
Mesa
.
These are separate searches for many
areas of Costa Mesa as well.
03/15/2012
All
links have been restored and are working properly.
Because of the shifts in the data formats from our
local MLS (changing from SoCal MLS to CRM MLS) many of
the links on the site were either not working or were
"stale" (weeks old data). Thanks to my link
vendors, the data is now up and running and totally up
to date.

A
new web page for homes and real estate in
Wagon

7
seller mistakes
.
This is a companion web
page to my earlier page on
7
buyer mistakes
. These are typical
mistakes that sellers should avoid when listing their
home.
01/25/2011
Homebuyer
resources
. A new series of pages to assist the home
buyer, in particular, the first tome home buyer. These
pages include information loans and lending, getting
pre-approved, home searches, what happens during
escrow and much, much, more. Check out this series of
pages
here
04/10/2010
New
page for buyers who may be looking for income or
investment properties in Orange County. This page
includes duplexes, triplexes, and fourplex units for
sale, as well as bank owned properties, a glossary or
terms, and various tips. Check it out
here
01/15/2010
One
of the most useful pages I have ever put together for
this economy is a page that helps people with credit
challenges to be able to lease a home. Many people
coming out of a short sale or a foreclosure still wish
to live in a certain neighborhood. Poor credit
typically prevents their lease applications from being
accepted.
This
page provides answers!
10/27/2009
Brand
new page for Laguna Niguel and Laguna Hills homes and
real estate,
here
.
Also, Tustin and North Tustin homes and real estate
here
.
Many people are shopping for a one level or single
story home. I produced whole page of homes in Orange
County for sale and lease with one story,
here
.
Last, Orange County golf course view homes and homes
in golf course communities for sale and lease are
here
. Luxury
homes and estates for sale and lease can be viewed
here
.

A
new page for
exceptional
buys
replaces the original page and the original
concept, which was to list just a handful of homes in
Coto de Caza. This new page lists some of the best
priced homes in Orange County and includes single
family (detached) homes for $400,000 or less, Homes
with large square footage (2,500 sq ft or greater) for
$600,000 or less, homes with a private pool for
$600,000 or less, and homes with at least 4 bedrooms
for $400,000 or less. The task now is to integrate
this link all over the site and to replace the old
link. I think this is going to be an exciting page for
home buyers!
08/15/2009
All
new, revised page for
Ladera
Ranch
homes and real estate.
Aliso
Viejo
specialty page. A page listing
seven
top buyer mistakes
(a must read if you are
currently buying). Many buyers are looking for homes
with
l
arge
lots
, so I put together an excellent page by
various lot sizes. I also added a
map
page featuring a map of Orange County and a map of
Orange County school districts. An article on
Short Sales is
here
- Great information if you are shopping short
sales.
02/15/2009
Added a new
page for homes in Irvine, CA,
here
12/01/2008
4/22/2008
I've added
lots of new home searches including horse properties,
REO & bank owned properties, lease-option
properties, homes with no Mello Roos, plus new area
pages for Lake Forest and San Juan Capistrano.

Where are the floor plans?
My
Coto Neighborhoods
page included links to floor
plans for each tract model. However, this opened up
the use of the floor plans to not only the public (as
I intended) but to any Realtor who wished to use them,
whether they paid for the plans or not. This did not
make the licensor of the floor plans very happy!
Therefore, I have decided to provide floor plans
on
request
. Send me an e-mail and I will provide
you with a free, high-resolution floor plan for any
tract homes you wish! No obligation! just
e-mail me
here
(and don't forget to
tell me which city and tract!)
8/02/2007
Added
Foothill Ranch and Portola Hills to my home search and
Trabuco Canyon pages.
5/19/2007
Added a
BLOG link (OC Real Estate) to discuss all of the
happenings in South OC Real Estate. This is an open
forum to discuss real estate needs, the market,
mortgage loans, or anything else of interest to the
South Country Real Estate market, The link is
here
4/16/2007
A new page
for the
Trabuco Canyon
communities has been
added. This page includes the communities of Robinson
Ranch, Rancho Cielo, Wagon Wheel, Walden, plus the
rural canyon communities of Silverado, Modjeska, and
Trabuco Canyons. This was a challenging page to put
together, since the place-name "Trabuco
Canyon" is not clearly defined or accurately
classified by the Real Estate community and the
Multiple Listing service. Some more work will be
needed on this page on the photos and to clearly
describe the positives of each of the great
communities within Trabuco Canyon, but I think the
page is a good start, and, to the best of my
knowledge, it's information that cannot be found
anywhere else. The page is
here
.
Added two more
Quick Search
links to my Coto
de Caza Communities page, to search for pool homes or
golf course view homes.
3/31/2007
The
Coto
de Caza Neighborhoods
page is finally ready for
release. This page lists all 60 Coto de Caza
neighborhoods and has photos, specifications, floor
plans, and links that display available homes in each
community. I can't begin to tell you the time and
effort that has gone into this page. I originally
sought out a page like this on the web, and since I
couldn't find it, I created it (yes, I do my own web
programming!) The work has taken many hours, but I
think it has been worth the effort. I still have a few
floor plans to load, but otherwise I am very proud and
satisfied with the result, and I hope you will find it
to be a very useful page! If you would like to see it,
click
here
2/12/2007
Added
search links to the Coto de Caza, Mission Viejo,
Dove Canyon, and RSM pages. These pre-programmed
searches will display available homes for sale by
lowest to highest price. I think these pre-programmed
searches will be a time-saver for my clients and web
visitors.
