Sweet Orange

126 Tangerine

Public notices in the Irvine World News showed the following homes in Orangetree were set to go on the trustee auction block in January and February of last year. I don’t have the information handy on whether or not these homes were actually auctioned at the designated time, but I will provide you with information on the date and amount that these homes last sold for.

Orangetree, which includes mostly condos (although a few detached homes do exist) is one of Irvine’s more affordable areas. The low prices are due to the limited square footage, not necessarily the price per square foot.

To see what is currently available in Orangetree and to compare current prices with the selling prices of the homes listed below, see the Refin Orangetree map.
