If you’re planning on eating a lot of hot dogs this Fourth of July (and we know you are) maybe you want to kick off the day with some exercise. The Firecracker 5K is BACK after skipping last year due to COVID; meet on July 4 at Harvey West Park in Santa Cruz and start anywhere from 8  a.m. to 11  a.m.

 

 

Head up to Scotts Valley on the Fourth of July for a parade and flyover performance by Little Tampico! Festivities start at noon, the parade kicks off at 3 p.m. along Scotts Valley Drive, and the flyover follows the parade kick-off. 

 

 

It isn’t the Fourth of July without Aptos’ famous World’s Shortest Parade! Get a good seat along the route from Soquel and State Park Dr all the way to Trout Gulch Rd and celebrate with locals as homemade floats make their rounds.

Lack of Building Fuels Housing Prices. In May 2021, the median annual housing price rose 23.6% nationwide, which is a new monthly record.

Last week our team met up at Cantine Winepub in Aptos for a team get-together (peep the aftermath to get an idea of how much fun we had!). From wins to birthdays to celebrating the baby bump, we had a great time hanging out and taking the time to reflect on all that we have collectively accomplished. And yep, that’s a money tree there with Kevin (wishing you all the success Kev!). We love just hanging out as a team – if this is the type of environment you’re looking for, we are actually looking to add to our team!

If you haven’t been able to vacation lately, maybe it’s time to bring the vacation to you. Imagine that you have a backyard like this one, complete with incredible views and a pool that’s primed for summer (cue the scent of Corralitos sausages grilling, kids splashing in the pool, and your choice cocktail in hand). Nice right? Beyond the backyard, the vacation continues. Four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 5,442 SF give you plenty of space to entertain or find a quiet corner of the house to relax. One thing’s for sure: you can always get lost in that view of the valley that goes all the way to the sea.

“Jessica worked with us for 6-8 months through the most trying time for purchasing a house in this insane market. She was incredibly available and responsive. She had to make multiple offers for us and helped us through the disappointment of losing multiple bids. It was extra challenging for her as she had to please 4 people involved in the selection process but she managed this with ultimate tact. We are very thankful for her help.”
