My Top Favorite SPOTS to Watch Fireworks in Newport

Newport Beach has some of the best, most colorful, and safest 4th of July fireworks show! There’s so many different places to view, some of my favorites include:

Galaxy Park - you can put chairs right on the bluff and be able to see the fireworks show from the Newport Dunes. 

Besides obviously seeing the fireworks show from the Newport Dunes, Castaways Park is also a great place to view the fireworks. There are no tall trees along the walkway to block your view, however, just be careful you aren't blocking the residents whose backyards line up right next to the trail! 

Westcliff Park is right across from the Newport Dunes, and also is a great vantage point for the fireworks going off at the Dunes as well as being able to see the fireworks off the barge at Newport Pier!

Have you ever wondered why the 4th of July is celebrated by fireworks? Read this article to find out why: http://time.com/4828701/first-fireworks-history-july-4th/

Have a great and safe 4th of July everyone!

Co-Ownership?

Anyone thinking about Co-Ownership Opportunities? 👋🏼😊

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

After covid, there has been a second-home BOOM💥 in Newport Beach. One option we don’t talk about a lot is co-ownership‼️🤔

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What if you could buy a home like this for a fraction of the interest for under $600,000. It’s a 2 minute walk to the beach🌊 The average 2nd home owner uses their property 6 - 8 weeks a year. Co-Ownership gives you 6 weeks a year, full use.

Power of a Colored Front Door

It's end of April - which to some people means: FESTIVAL SEASON. We are right in the middle of the back to back Coachella🦋 Weekends and coming up on 🐎Stagecoach! (btw - who is going to Stagecoach? 🤠)

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What we love more than good music - are fabulous front doors. You've heard us preach about the Power of a Colored🔹Front🔸Door. We've shared a great blog post by @theSaltyCanary on a Palm Springs Door Tour before, but she's now recently updated it and we have to share!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Click the link below to see some of her (and now our) favorite front doors with desert vibes!

Tax Refund Tips

Save this post ✅ If you’re getting a refund this year, here are a few tips to help with your home purchase or sale this season.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🌴 How Buyers Can Use Their Tax Refund

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

📈 Growing your down payment fund – If you haven’t started saving for your down payment, let your tax refund kick off the process.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🔍 Paying for your home inspection – Your home inspection can save you a lot of headaches down the road by helping you determine the condition of the house. As a buyer, you’ll typically be responsible for paying for your inspection, and it’s definitely worth the investment.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🙏🏼 Saving for closing costs – Closing costs are additional expenses you’ll need to pay once it’s time to close.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

☀️How Sellers Can Use Their Tax Refund

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⬆️ Making small upgrades – Tackle small projects or boost your curb appeal to help your home stand out.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🛠 Making repairs – If there’s anything in your house that needs to be fixed, nows the time!

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

💸 Buying your next home – Whether you’re selling to move up or downsize, you can use your tax refund to help pay for any costs on the purchase of your next home.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Of course, it’s important to talk with your trusted real estate advisor before taking on any projects.
