Flex your dollar!

Flex your dollar by buying a “bang for your buck” property. Currently, prices per square foot are $369 in Orange, $396 in Santa Ana, and $368 in Tustin (per AltosResearch). All are a little down from the last time I checked, as predicted with the continued fall of the market. To maximize space for your money (or to “flex” your dollar), seek out properties with low prices per square foot. Below are my top picks for this week’s bang for your buck.
