Real estate news: Applications reopen for affordable homes in Brea; prices start at $320,000

Applications are being accepted in a newly opened second round for a small collection of affordable homes in Brea.

The Flats at West Village include 20 “stacked” flats across from Central Park in northwest Brea. Prices begin around $320,000 and rise to $500,000, with all units reserved for income-approved buyers.

The builder and the city opted to postpone the buying process, which first launched in late January, and have since expanded the income requirements by roughly $4,000-$5,000 to widen the pool of applicants.

The project by Trumark Homes includes three one-bedroom units selling for $320,000, seven two-bedroom units selling for $420,000 and 10 three-bedroom units priced at $500,000. The condo-like homes are stacked on top of garages and first-floor units. More details are available at bit.ly/3qVpBuK.

Applicants must earn no more than $102,450 in 2021 for a two-person household and $128,050 for a family of four, according to the city’s website.

Eight floor plans range from 791 square feet to 1,624 square feet with all homes including walk-in closets, washer/dryer space, an outdoor deck and direct garage access.

Applications officially reopened July 12.

Birtcher breaks ground on mega-IE center

Newport Beach-based Birtcher Development has broken ground on Birtcher Oak Valley Commerce Center, a 125-acre industrial development in Calimesa in Riverside County.

The firm said it has its eyes on the Inland Empire’s hot industrial market with this center aimed at “big-box tenants with warehousing and distribution needs.”

Four Class-A industrial buildings in the complex will span nearly 2.2 million square feet. The project is near the I-10 freeway and close to Redlands, which also is home to distributors including Amazon and XPO Logistics.

“We are bullish on the growth in the Oak Valley I-10 corridor given its strategic location just beyond Redlands and deep untapped labor market,” said Brooke Birtcher Gustafson, managing director at Birtcher Development.

The seller, principals of Oak Valley Development Co., owned the property since 1997 and obtained entitlements for the project earlier this year.

QuadReal Property Group is a joint venture partner in the project.
