The Orange County GIS data, including the parcel database, probably with the associated addresses has recently been released into the public domain. If there isn't a specific point address layer, I'm sure there are some of in the Seattle OSM group that can generate one for you from the parcel centroids to assist with an import. Also, some of the individual cities may have building footprints, but you would have to identify those, I didn't get that far into the weeds. https://media.ocgov.com/gov/pw/survey/services/lis.asp and http://geospatial.blogs.com/geospatial/2013/08/orange-county-parcel-file-now-freely-downloadable.html Michael Patrick Seattle OSM
