The purchase price for Tamra's Cota house was actually $1.78 and they sold Eddie's house for $1.75. It's not a significant price increase for someone with her probable income. 

I had never heard of Cota prior to Real Housewives and I don't think it's one of the really desirable locations in Orange County. The coastal communities are far more desirable and expensive in terms of what your real estate dollar will buy. 

Back in late 70’s Coto de Caza was a shooting range...we’d go out there and shoot skeet...clay pigeons...and we’d hunt. It was that type of activity then if we’d venture out there...

as another commenter mentioned it being warmer inland...even tho onshore breezes can reach it...that was before developed and little to no additional water resources and/or other flora which can bring lower temps (only grasses and scrub oak mainly at that time)....

same thing for south near San Clemente...Forster Ranch (inland from Dana Point)...we had keys to all the gates...nada other than open fields but cooler there due to exposure to Pacific.

i remember going to college..wondering...’why 4-5 lanes on this stretch of the 5?”.....there was NOTHING between Mission Viejo and San Clemente...about that time tho...look alike houses by hundreds built...Oso Pkwy Alicia...and so on...but it seemed mainly Crown Valley Pkwy to Coast....built quickly (others may be able to confirm)....

Coto de Caza was fun....but it wasn’t “all that” then...

and INLAND...took awhile to get there...and that was BEFORE all those lanes were full...

gated? Double gated? Yeah...but who gives a crap...MANY gated communities are found in SoCal....

Coto...as they call it...no big deal...

and 2 million is no biggie in the OC...depending on credit...I don’t think pmt would be more than 5-6k...(IF 1 million were borrowed as suggested...mtg pmt would not 10k...I don’t think...is point.. it I’m no expert on mtg pmts)...highly subjective

Yes she is as she’s now the breadwinner for that whole bunch.  I don’t believe she bought that house. Maybe she shows the house on t.v. advertising it for Coto Real Estate, and they let her live in it for a small fee?  Just a thought.

My cousin lives in houses that are for sale in a wealthy area of Scottsdale.  She moves in with her kids and lives there, showing the house to prospective buyers, and moves to another house when it sells.  It’s a very nomadic life, but she lives for free. 

What is it with Tamera and boob grabbing?  If any woman came up to me and grabbed my breasts, she’d be laying on the floor with a concussion.

Coto is very desirable. Yes the coastal areas are as well, but beach cities are congested and parking is always a challenge as well as beach traffic. Coto is inland, but they don't have the parking/traffic issues and they are behind gates, which some people really like. It really just comes down to lifestyle choices.

I think I figured it out.  Bronwyn is sporting naturals and not bolt-ons, so Tammy Sue, having heard this earlier, from Shannon at the Quiet Woman, wanted to give them a tremendous up n down workout (which she did indeed do), maybe for old times sake - since Tammy Sue's stick straight out and can't bounce at all. 😄

They're a class based gym, though, not one where you just go and do your own thing and could also take classes.  So I think that may be the reason for the hours being more limited than some other places, because everyone who is going is going for a set class rather than just the gym being open and people stopping buy to hit a treadmill or do their arms day on weights on the way to or from work.

I think I have pinpointed my dislike for this franchise .... Yes there is nastiness in each housewives show but for some reason the TOXIC "friendships" in this one just isn't fun... they actually are GLEEFUL in OC to tear someone to shreds over shit they do themselves and say and do the most VILE shit to each other and the excuse is oh that's just them.. NO they are all middle age to pushing OLD age women.. its coming across as gross like who wants to still be acting that way at their age? Middle school/ High school was 40plus years ago for these women ..Grow the fuck up.. there is enough nastieness in the day to day world i dont need to turn on my tv and watch Harpies screech at each other for 45 mins it just isn't fun anymore

Totally agree as it definitely reflects their specific business model in terms of how their clients use the gym. 

On weekdays the morning hours attract people who work and then stay at home mothers or other people who don't work 9 to 5 until lunch. There is a lull because typically the rhythm of most people is not to exercise after lunch and in the early afternoon. It then picks up the after work/after school crowd. Same on Saturdays as most people who work out do it in the morning rather than kill a whole Saturday at the gym.

I am sure they know exactly when to schedule classes in order for there to be enough attendance to make sense. I have no idea whether Cut is actually a money making business but there are a lot of small gyms like this which focus on classes that have been around for a long time that I am familiar with - at least in Southern California so there must be a way they make sense economically. If all you want is the ability to access a treadmill at any hour, there are gyms for that or a lot of people at least in SoCal either have room for cardio equipment or live in a building or HOA development with a rec center. My building has a gym and pool.

Though not stated, I would assume that since the gym focuses a lot on personal trainers, you could probably schedule your sessions whenever you wanted since the personal trainers associated with the gym would have access.

I am only saying that Coto is a desirable location, based in personal preferences. I lived in a very expensive beach community, Seal Beach, in my 20's, a bock from the beach. I would not live there now, although I still enjoy visiting. Coto is in South County, always considered superior here to North,  West and East OC, and yes coukd be transplanted to Tustin, but distinctly NOT to Westminster, which is one of the least desirable cities in OC. I certainly agree there are more desirable locations, simply saying that COTO is one of many that is considered desirable here in the OC.

Of course it comes down to lifestyle choices and trade offs.

However, the reality is that Tamra's house would be much more money if it were relocated closer to the more desirable and expensive coastal communities. Since there's traffic all over, it really depends on where one is commuting and unless one is specifically visiting the beaches and downtown areas, parking isn't an issue. 

The average price of a home in Coto is far less than the average price of a home closer to the coast.

Pasadena is less expensive than Santa Monica and Santa Monica is more expensive than the Valley - obviously comparing apples to apples in terms of the actual home.

^^^ 

I've been wondering about that constantly too.  When Tamra said she and Braunwynn were both "pint sized," (which I find to be a nauseating way of describing one's self, but anyway), I was like, "yeah, Tamra, what happened to being 'baptized, pint-sized and highly prized'?"  I think she forgot one part (and who ever 'highly prized' her?  Eddie? Guffaw)

When Tamra first came on the show, she spoke really softly and she seemed the most in keeping with a Christian to me then.  I don't know what's in her heart, and there is a famous quote from a woman who is Catholic and mean and when they asked her how she can be so Catholic and so mean, she famously replied, like, "can you imagine what I was like before religion!"  (I'm butchering it, but there you go), so I don't think it's for me to say she's not Christian anymore, but she's certainly not acting like one!

Christian should mean kindness.  As in, "it's the Christian thing to do."  My dad once told me that for some people "God" can be another way of saying "good."  I see absolutely none of that here.  She and Nene Leakes might be, like, the least Christian people out of all the Housewives!

OC median household income is like 83k, while Coto de Caza's is about double that.  So I think when someone has made "enough" and wants to get away from...crime and drugs and other things, then Coto is certainly on the desirability index.  🙂

I wasn't raised in the church, so who am I to comment on it (I was one of those people who came to the realization that I was Christian through intellectual inquiry when I was like 20).  But here I go anyway:

I do think there is a place for modesty in the Christian religion.  Source:  Real Housewives of Orange County Season 5, when Alexis and Jim had their pastor and his wife to their home for breakfast.  Alexis, who had her big, fake tits out brought the subject to the pastor that "who cares how large your breasts are if you're a good Christian."  The pastor, who I'm sure was being paid to be there, and it was a great opportunity for him to kiss her ass and get big donations, looked visibly uncomfortable and did not co-sign this suggestion.  I remember that very distinctly because it impacted my thoughts.  Like...maybe cover up the girls around the pastor?

On the other hand, the first time I really spent time around chruchgoers was when I was living in Miami and hanging out with some really attractive clubgoing women who also went to church.  At least one of them had fake breasts and none of them dressed or even acted modestly when we went to the clubs, but...none of them talked about each other.  No one was mean or vindictive.  No one was a back-stabber.  It was so different from other people I knew.  I don't think Tamra displays any of these paradoxes that we could spend so much time discussing.  

With Tamra, I find there is no "but" there.  It's not like, "she swears, she talks like a sailor, she drinks heavily, she speaks poorly of people, BUT.."  It's like, there's no "but"; that's just who she is.  After her daughter Sydney severed their relationship because she was embarassed of Tamra's shenanigans on reality TV, Tamra went and quit the show for the sake of family unity.  No, I'm just kidding.  Tamra made it that season's storyline that Sydney wouldn't talk to her.  That's pretty unchristian to me.  I guess she does stand by Ryan and supports him even when he makes questionable choices.  I don't know if that's enabling, but it's the only thing I can really associate with Tamra that is even arguably good-hearted.

It kind of upset me, too.   🤷‍♀️

You're not wrong in some of your assessment regarding the humanity and fallibility of Christian people.  I've caught myself being hypocritical more than once, and can cuss like a ticked-off farmer, but to lump all Christians together saying we only have sex to make babies is simply not a true statement.   

My dislike for Tamra gives me little sympathy for her foolishness, but I also know if she was sincere when she asked for forgiveness back when she was baptized, that God knows her heart and will still be there waiting for her if and when she comes to her senses and chooses to return to Him.  She was truly happier than I'd ever seen her then and I hoped she would hold steadfast, but it's not an easy thing to do sometimes.   Old habits break hard. 

Hopefully she gets herself back to God sooner than later.  I don't see how anyone, Christian or not, can be happy living their lives like that.  So shallow and empty....

I'm so tired of the Tamras, the Bethennys of these franchises that think vulgarity = high humor.  I'm no prude, but when your sense of humor is grabbing someone's tits, constantly talking about blow jobs, anal, etc., it looses the edginess they think it brings.  

Tamra's mom is likely in a 55 and older community.  That's not an "old folks home."  I'm sure Tamra thinks saying that makes it HILARIOUS.

With the exception of Bronwyn and Shannon, these women look AWFUL.  Tamra has had way too many procedures because those eyebrows are so wonky.  Emily's face is now swallowed up in fillers and with the extra weight, she looks awful.  Gina is young enough that she hasn't been messing with her face that much with fillers, but her washed out hair and the length is awful for her heart shaped face.  She needs a mid length bob badly.  Not to mention her fragile mental state is really showing on her.  Kelly's hair is awful.  Shannon looks the best she has in a long time.  But both her and Bronwyn aren't far from looking ridiculous with the fillers.

Got it..👍I get what you’re saying...but I’ll have to agree to disagree..

...maybe I misunderstood value vs personal preference 

I too have lived in both....all I can tell you..(Huntington/Newport Beach border was my first real estate purchase in ‘77 while in college...and I moved there from near UCI campus)....

so from that time and my 45 plus yrs experience...

(and still own homes in both ...inland also to have place near grand babies)

with exception to destination locations I have such as Ojai ( Shangri-la)...Bass Lake...(Sierra Foothills get away)...Or South Lake Tahoe.....

all I can say is when college friends fam and others visited from other parts of US....

When in Irvine/Misdion Viejo area...they asked us to take them to Newport Beach..

....and when I lived in Newport...I was never asked to take them to Irvine...

Now if Coto area has an Outlet Center...that’d be a draw...or a Casino....that’s different 😆😆😆 I dunno...

As much as I despise her...Kelly wasn’t wrong a 1200 foot “weekend bungalow” tear down within blocks of surf is quite a bit more than 2 mill...

tear down and build “up” as many stories as local Coastal Commission allows.

My comment was about value not preference

Those are deceptive statistics. Cota is a private housing development with less than 4000 homes while Orange County contains a large population base with lots of economic diversity.

Obviously people who are buying homes worth $1 million to $2 million have higher incomes than those who live in poor areas of Orange County.

However, just like any less "desirable" area in any place, people decide whether they would rather have a larger home in a less desirable area or a smaller home in a more desirable place. What Tamra paid for her really nice home in Cota would buy a small "middle class" home in a more desirable area. In some parts of SoCal it would only buy a condo. :-).

With the exception of Bronwyn and Shannon, these women look AWFUL.  Tamra has had way too many procedures because those eyebrows are so wonky.  Emily's face is now swallowed up in fillers and with the extra weight, she looks awful.  Gina is young enough that she hasn't been messing with her face that much with fillers, but her washed out hair and the length is awful for her heart shaped face.  She needs a mid length bob badly.  Not to mention her fragile mental state is really showing on her.  Kelly's hair is awful.  Shannon looks the best she has in a long time.  But both her and Bronwyn aren't far from looking ridiculous with the fillers.

I don't necessarily blame Tamra for making the jokes about her mother moving.  I can say that I have made similar jokes to a relative of mine, it was something that was amusing to both of us.  If a camera followed me around 24/7, there are a lot of things that I'm sure I say that would horrify most people, but the people I'm talking to don't bat an eye over.

Tamra's eyebrows most likely look wonky because she has them microbladed.  Last season we watched both her and Vicki get them done, and it's a semi-permanent procedure, so if someone does them a bit heavier or whatever, you have to wait for it to fade out.  

I also think Shannon keeps messing with her face and she doesn't look the same now as she did on the show.  She needs to stop with the procedures.  For someone who started on the show going on and on about how she was free from toxins and had to have a hospital grade air purification system in her house, she's totally happy to shoot anything and everything she can get her hands on into her face and body.  It is weird to me.

As far as I remember Heather, Shannon, Alexis, Peggy, and Meghan all have twins. That's a lot of twins for a small group of women. 

Heather and Meghan both had IVF and have talked about it.  Meghan did it because Jimmy had previous had a vasectomy.  I don't know about the others, but it's entirely possible that they had IVF, or used some other procedure.

I think I have pinpointed my dislike for this franchise .... Yes there is nastiness in each housewives show but for some reason the TOXIC "friendships" in this one just isn't fun... they actually are GLEEFUL in OC to tear someone to shreds over shit they do themselves and say and do the most VILE shit to each other and the excuse is oh that's just them.. NO they are all middle age to pushing OLD age women.. its coming across as gross like who wants to still be acting that way at their age? Middle school/ High school was 40plus years ago for these women ..Grow the fuck up.. there is enough nastieness in the day to day world i dont need to turn on my tv and watch Harpies screech at each other for 45 mins it just isn't fun anymore

I agree.  These housewives shows are supposed to take us away from the problems of daily life, and to relax.  Instead, it’s watching them knock each other, fight, scream and yell and act like idiots.  It’s also falling down to us posters who are testy and come back at one another which isn’t enjoyable or nice.    The best scenes are when they go on a nice trip, see the sights, eat in nice restaurants and go shopping without all the screaming.  Bravo should send them to Europe so we can enjoy different meaningful sights.  Not jumping on bars screaming the Three Amigas.  Yuk.

Totally agree. With all of this. 😞

Kelly did too - I remember her having a conversation with Meghan - about going through IVF and getting her "designer baby"

Emily went through it many times - she couldn't carry any of them to full term. She went on to use her sister as the surrogate for her 3 kids.

I don't remember Shannon ever talking about personally having fertility issues or using IVF - she is so open with her life I don't see her not revealing that if it were true. The conversation has come up enough on the show - she would have chimed in.

Exactly. She literally had her husband remove a piece of plastic from her ass, I don’t think she wouldn’t talk about IVF.

Those are deceptive statistics. Cota is a private housing development with less than 4000 homes while Orange County contains a large population base with lots of economic diversity.

Obviously people who are buying homes worth $1 million to $2 million have higher incomes than those who live in poor areas of Orange County.

I hear you that it's a small environment  But that then shows that one's Coto' neighbors are just about guaranteed not to be riff raff....though their moral choices are another matter. 😕

Shannnon goes to concerts, gets excited, and by proxy humps David afterward.

Maybe my memory is not so good, but I thought Gina's husband lived/worked in Santa Clarita, which is a good hour North of Beverly Hills (30 miles of traffic).  Why would she have avoided Rodeo Drive all this time out of fear of running in to him and his side piece?  Isn't that what she said?  They were almost as far from "L.A" as she was.

No, she said she wasn’t avoiding Rodeo because of Matt. She said it’s because she has 3 young kids and couldn’t get away to go “cavorting in LA”, or something like that.

Matt is in Santa Clarita? Damn. That’s FAR.

She has been lying. 

Yes, of course. I was responding to the question about what she actually said, however, not whether this is true. I don’t believe a word that comes out of her mouth. Actually, I don’t believe anything any of these hos say.
