Portola Hills Mello Roos - Wonder what the maturity dates of the mello roos bonds in the area are:

  • S2 Mello Roos – Current bond is schedule to mature 2016
  • R3 Mello Roos – Current bond is schedule to mature 2015
  • Q1 Mello Roos – Current bond is schedule to mature 2011

One thing to keep in mind w/Mello Roos bonds they have individual terms and though the maturity dates could continue further. Example – The S2 Mello-Roos has no specified end date, however the bonds that have been issued thus far are scheduled to mature in 2016. The district has not yet issued up to the maximum authorized amount of bonds which means they could issue more bonds if they see a need and Mello-Roos could continue until all authorized bonds have been issued and are paid off.

When attending the Community update of the Portola Hills Center it was mentioned that the new development may help in reducing these bonds for current residents as they would spread over the new development.

Portola Center Update: Wandering what is the next phase of the development is? I had a quick conversation with the developer to see what the status was and he noted the following:

“We are in the process of preparing the next round of plans for Portola
Center, which include an Area Plan and subdivisions maps. We hope to submit these plans to the City in about a month. Based on these plans the City will have to prepare an Subsequent EIR evaluating the environmental impact of the proposed plans. That process should take about 9 months”

Where are all the houses for Sale?

Image
If you are thinking about a move, downsizing, relocating and have been searching for a home, you are probably thinking "where are all the homes for sale" isn't this time of year that we would see them? The answer to the later is yes!  May is typically the busiest month in real estate.  However with over 80% of homeowners refinancing to the low rates over the last couple of years, homeowners are in no hurry to make a move into a higher rate.  Is this you?   But life happens and buyer demand is pretty strong in most price points.  One reason... is the equity position homeowners have.  Just released over 67% of homeowners homes are either paid off or they have less than 50% remaining on their mortgage.  That means there is a ton of equity in the market!  In addition, buyers have come to terms with interest rates.  They understand they can refinance later. As we do anticipate home prices to sky rocket due to this inventory issue not being resolved and rates will come down. He

Is your Portola Hills home going to be your first Rental Property?

Image
Did you know there are over 200 original owners here in Portola Hills.  The community was started in the late 80's so that is nearly 40+ years of equity growth for those homeowners.  Especially with the median price of the area nearing $1 million dollars.   Most of those homeowners have very low mortgages or the homes are paid off, which provides them with a wonderful opportunity to leverage their equity into other rental properties.  Perhaps the original home could become or has become their first investment property. With rising rents, right now is an excellent time to perhaps take the jump to become a landlord.   Check out these 3 Mistakes we see first time investors make in the real estate market. 1.  Not doing a cash flow analysis. 🤑 It is easy to say, oh my mortgage is this, I can rent it for that and do the math.  But it goes much deeper than that, understanding your overall cost is critical step in planning. 2.  Not working with a real estate agent. 💁‍♀️ Truth, having a R
