Dove Canyon, like most communities in South Orange County has been hit by a wave of short sales and foreclosures.  Unlike some of the surrounding areas, however, there have been a number of standard sales mixed in with the special condition sales. This past week there were three new listings in Dove Canyon - and none of them were short sales or REOs.  So what does that mean in terms of market trends?  On it's own, probably not too much, but combined with a number of other factors however, it might pay to look a little closer at Dove Canyon.  If you're looking to purchase in a beautiful gated community, this might just be the market you're looking for. 13 Greenspring, in the Waterford Crest tract is a beautiful property with a slightly higher price tag than 27 Lawnridge, the last model m... 11/13/2008

But the most useful number I came up with is what I'll call the "all inclusive... 05/18/2008
