Most Agents Push One Market.
These Tools Show You Both.

Stop getting half the story. Use free tools with complete data.

OC-Only Agents

Won't tell you about $785K Corona homes because they want you in an $813K Santa Ana condo. More commission for them.

IE-Only Agents

Never show affordable OC neighborhoods. Miss $800K Santa Ana homes and push you to IE without comparison.

These Free Tools

Show you BOTH options. Compare all 46 cities. See what your budget gets you in each market bias, just data.

💰 REAL STORY

Jennifer Almost Lost $60K

Jennifer was pre-approved for $1.3M. Her OC agent showed her Great Park homes in Irvine. Beautiful new builds. Top schools. Perfect, right?

Wrong.

She downloaded my Irvine guide to verify what her agent was telling her. That's when she discovered it: Great Park has $10,800/year in Mello-Roos her agent never mentioned.

That's $900/month forever. Over 30 years, that's $270K in extra taxes.

She called me. I showed her Woodbridge Irvine schools, zero Mello-Roos, $1.2M homes. She bought there instead.

Jennifer Saved $60K

Plus $900/month for life. Same city. Same schools. The guide caught what her agent hid.

Real Results from Using Our Tools

These buyers used our free comparison tools to make smarter decisions

"We were stuck between Santa Ana condos and Corona houses. The honest comparison helped us see the real trade-offs. Ended up in Corona with 3x the space for $50K less."

Jennifer & Mike T.

Corona Homeowners

Saved $50K + Got 1,200 sq ft More

"The Irvine guide's Mello-Roos breakdown was eye-opening. We almost bought in Great Park ($10K/year Mello-Roos). Bought in Woodbridge instead Mello-Roos."

The Patel Family

Irvine, Woodbridge

Saved $60K Over 30 Years

"Finally, an agent who doesn't just push the expensive option. The affordability calculator showed us Tustin fit better than stretching for Irvine. Best decision we made."

David L.

Tustin Homeowner

Bought Smarter, Not Stretched

Why These Tools Exist

I researched every city in both counties so you don't have to

Why I Built These Tools

Most agents know 5-10 cities well. Maybe. They stick to their comfort zone and push what they know.

I wanted complete data. So I researched all 46 cities myself. Every single one. OC and IE. Prices, schools, commutes, hidden costs, neighborhood-level detail.

Then I built these free tools to share that research. Because buyers deserve honest comparisons, not sales pitches.
