The most expensive house on the market in the Irvine today is 36 Boulder View at $14,999,000($1531/SF). On the other end of the spectrum is 205 Springview at $130,000 ($274/SF). The five-hundred odd properties that are on the market serve every taste, every price range. Usually I pick properties in the $500,000-$900,000 range, but today I have two properties under $350,000. Both properties are served by excellent Irvine schools, and have the same amenities as the rest of the village they are associated with. Both have the potential to be good starter homes, or investment properties.

A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about investors gobbling up Irvine’s most affordable housing. Many of these investors have the means to make the purchase an all cash transaction. This is appealing to banks and homeowners; however, it plays havoc with the housing market ladder.
The housing market ladder is often cited as a basic component of a housing market that is functioning in a healthy manner. The theory of the housing market ladder goes like this: Those with limited incomes buy into the housing market by purchasing a home that is priced at the low end for that area. This allows those who could not otherwise afford to buy a home to become homeowners and, as equity and incomes increase, move up to a higher-end home.
