Sub $1M house in Irvine area

[David Cohen]

We are currently renting a house in Irvine and working on our next move

Option #1 - buy a house in the area for our family to move in, looking for at least 2k SF, 3+br, sub $1M

Option #2 - buy a house / apartment(s) and rent it/them and stay on rental.

Can you share your opinion? Any high rental ROI in orange county area (2h drive radius of Irvine)?

Thank you!

Dave.
