A guilty pleasure of mine too! Fun to see the familiar areas. I don't know what Tammy does, good question! Jeana is a much more established realtor than Tamra and with home prices at a million plus, she can make good commissions. Tamra seems to focus on Ladera Ranch which is a newer community outside the gates of Coto. Not as prestigous but some nice areas. Things definitely are selling much slower here. Her husband works at the number one Mercedes Benz dealership in the country which is in Newport Beach, about 30 minutes away from where they live but same type of area, think of the MTV show, Newport Harbor, The Real OC. Can't stand Jo and I hope the pilot is just that and does not go beyond that.

And where's Duff? The father of Tammy's little boy. I haven't seen the little boy, either. Last season, Duff was working with Vicki.

I think the missing people may not want to be on again. Remember one of Slade's sons disappeared the second season, his mom probably pulled him off. I think the youngest one but can't truly remember. He was not even standing with his dad and other brother when they would show the "family". Maybe Duff decided it was in his best interest and his son's to not be seen anymore????????

Slade's youngest son was quite ill for some time. I think that's why he wasn't on.

Tammy and Duff's youngest son is there with her and her daughters in the shot when they cut to that woman's storyline, where she stands in front of her family.

I'm going to assume Tamra(sp) was drunk when she was introducing her son to women.

Ok now with Tammy's ex who passed away. Isn't there some provision in the law that would also allow some of his estate to go to his blood kids? Before someone related by marriage? I don't know but that just doesn't seem right.

Mocha, from the little that I know about wills & estate law, the wife is generally entitled to 100% where the decedent dies intestate unless there are kids. If the decedent died intestate and left a surviving spouse and children, then the wife takes 50% and the remaining 50% is shared per stirpes.

Frankly, I think that the Tammy girl and daughters are just whining, whining, whining and bad-mouthing the Asian wife because a probate court has not awarded them any money yet. Unless the estate was less than $50k, the administration of the estate assets is more likely than not being administered by the court...thus, there's probably a close monitoring of the estate funds which would keep the widow from draining the estate of its assets before a final award order is issued.

In re the Tamra girl...Freud would have a field-day with her!!!

Ok that's what I was thinking Rehtse, that they would be entitled to something.

nope, this is california, a community property state. the wife will get 100% and if the children are over 18, nothing, unless they fight the will in probate.

Texas is a community property state also. The Texas Statutes provide for the issue, regardless of age, of any intestate decedent to receive his/her share. It seems a bit draconian that California law would not provide for the heirs in the absence of a will.

i went through this with my mother's estate. everything went to my step-father. and since i am not my step-father's child he had to set up a Living Trust and set himself up as trustee, then me as the trustee in perpetuity and then my daughter in case of my death for me to get anything, since i am not his living relative. his brothers/sisters would get everything. i didn't get a dime from my mother's estate due to joint ownership.

I am a realtor in Orange County so I went into the MLSs and found the listing for Vicki's smaller house. It was on market about six months and just taken off the market on November 16th. Did not sell. Last asking price was $1,899,000 so just about the price that Vicki paid for it. It did show Jeanna as the realtor. Even has her phone number hehe. Anyway, the others on that street for sale (3 of them) are 950,000-1,150,000 so nowhere near the price that Vicki is asking. Looks like her home is overbuilt for that area and street. Wonder what she will do now, I guess continue to rent it out to the decorator? Glad they gave the street names last night on the show. Very easy to locate!

Well the ones that are priced lower are smaller but if I am going to pay 1.9 million for a home, I want to be surrounded by similarly priced homes. There is a huge slump here so I am not surprised.

We also know that Tamra's client did not buy the house but that does not mean he did not buy anything but true, terrible time to try and sell a house!

What a hornet's nest a Living Trust is! I am currently dealing with my Uncle's. It basically protects nothing...I'm telling you, nothing. If a person wants another to inherit assets, they need to transfer them to that person's name long before they'll require care such as a nursing home.

All of my mother's assets are in my name. The look-back period is based on the amount transferred divided by the average monthly cost of nursing home care in your area. That gives you the total number of months the person is ineligible for application for Medicaid for nursing home care. Say that care was $8000.00 per month. Assets total $400,000. For 50 months, you can not apply for Medicaid. If, for example, assets were transferred 2 years ago, you would have to use those monies for 26 months before eligibility. That's $208,000, at least leaving the heirs $192,000. If it is your intention to leave someone money, it's the only way to protect it from being gobbled up.

My mother's assets were transferred long enough ago that they are all now available to me to use in whatever way I'll need to, to give her the best care possible.

Sorry for off topic, but it is sorta on topic 'cause somebody talked about it...

Very sobering Huk

Not sure anyone answered this and I may be wrong but I think Tammy works for Vicki.

I am done reserving my judgement for Tamra, it is no wonder her son has turned out as he is.

The estate question has been answered but it made me think of the Tori Spelling situation, Aaron died and mommy didn't give any to the kids if I remember correctly?

I think when Jeana said she started putting on weight when they separated, I think they have been separated since before the show started airing in the sense that he lives there but they are not a couple. Even when she was talking about it openly tonight I got the feeling that she is planning on officially separating from him but hasn't kicked him out yet. I could be way off, just was the way I took it.

I don't think Tammy works for Vicki. Duff, Tammy's ex worked for her but we have not seen him this season.
