Ok, have you been to 𝔊𝔯𝔦𝔪 𝔊𝔞𝔯𝔡𝔢𝔫 ☠︎ ℭ𝔬𝔣𝔣𝔢𝔢 + 𝔓𝔩𝔞𝔫𝔱𝔰 ☠️☕️?

For our Coffee Mesa adventure this week, Screen-Free Fun Starts Here | Activities Kids Love and I veered a little off path and decided to wander down a reel rabbit hole from one of our most favorite parent accounts ever, OC Parent Guide | Local Events, Resources, and Play Spots 😀. We recreated one of her ideas and give this 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Grim got the kids all amped up bc of the fun theme since Halloween season is upon us! At Grim, it’s Halloween season all year long though - so fun!

Unfortunately, we couldn’t have their high pitched laughter interrupting the patrons for too long so we called it quits and took the quick 5 minute drive to the fun Russell C. Paris park nearby.

Costa Mesa doesn’t have a coffee shop with this vibe so if you want to add a little boo to your brew, it’s worth the short drive to Huntington Beach.

While this may not truly fit the Coffee Mesa location, the whole purpose of the Coffee Mesa Passport is community and connection. This adventure was all about that. Make sure to sign up to know about the fun deals and coffee shops that will be part of the Coffee Mesa Passport that is taking flight in October!

PS - they give you a discount for tagging them on social! See my comments for the photo I posted 👻

MEOW! Purrs in Paradise Cat Lounge is Costa Mesa’s newest (and only) cat lounge! They are opening at The CAMP on Saturday, September 26!!! The owners have been busy building their dream space and it’s finally purrfect! Come spend some time petting the kitties and giving them some love. What makes this extra special is that they’ve partnered with a cat rescue so the kitties are adoptable too. 😻

What happens when you’re a working mom, an entrepreneur, and someone who’s always looking for what’s next? ✨

In this clip, Haley shares a little about her journey — from growing up in Seal Beach to spending 18 years in Newport, and eventually making her way to 17th Street and the heart of the Costa Mesa/Newport community.

Her story is such a great reminder that sometimes where you live and work becomes part of the story you’re building.

Transparency matters when you are buying a home. That’s why when I work with Costa Mesa homebuyers, I want to be up front about what services you’re receiving, what the fee is, and what to expect—so there are fewer surprises later.

If you’re thinking about buying and have questions about buyer agreements or how the process works, reach out. 🏡

What questions do you have about working with a buyer’s agent?

I asked AI to imagine 4 different ways this Lake Forest loft could feel like home. 👀

One space. Four buyer profiles. Four completely different design directions.

From The Suave Exec to The Smart Parent Move to The Young Couple — it’s interesting how much a space can change just by changing the vision behind it.

Which version would you choose: 1, 2, 3, or 4?

Costa Mesa real estate is giving us some interesting signals 👀

Looking at what sold over the last 7 days, two trends stand out:

🏡 Eastside townhomes are commanding a premium compared with similar homes in Central Costa Mesa.

📍 Single-family homes in the $1M–$1.2M range are moving particularly quickly.

So whether you’re buying or selling, the details matter — neighborhood, property type, and price point can make a big difference.

Have questions about what these trends mean for your home? Let’s talk. DM me and I’m happy to break it down.
