Gordon King - Hogan Associates

Gordon King - Hogan Associates I was born in Newport Rhode Island where my father was the head gardener for Doris Duke at Rough Point.

Newport-based real estate advisor specializing in luxury coastal properties, for more than a decade,
I’ve helped clients buy and sell distinctive homes, estates, and dock and mooring oriented properties across coastal Rhode Island. My family lived on the estate, which is where I was raised. My wife and I have lived and owned homes and investment properties in Washington DC, Alexandria Virginia, P

acific Palisades California, and Newport. Karen and I have had a summer home in Newport for over twenty-five years. As Chairman of the board of the Moorland Farm condominium association for four years, in the Estate section of Newport where we live, I am very familiar with the advantages of investing and owning condominiums in Newport County. I am also very familiar with the pitfalls and complications that can trip up an owner if a buyer or seller is not careful in the purchase of primary or secondary coastal homes home in Rhode Island. Please contact me for an analysis of your property and let me review the options available to you in today's challenging markets for obtaining the highest and best value before making important real estate buying or selling decisions.

Mortgage Rate Update
Mortgage rates remain in the mid-6% range. As of May 28, 2026, Freddie Mac reported the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate at 6.53%, up slightly from 6.51% the week before. Daily rate trackers are showing a similar range, around 6.5%–6.6%.

The next 60–90 days are unlikely to bring a major move lower. The more realistic expectation is continued volatility, with rates shifting around inflation data, Treasury yields, and Federal Reserve expectations.

For buyers, the practical advice remains simple: do not wait for the perfect rate. If the right property appears, focus on price discipline, monthly payment comfort, and the possibility of refinancing later if rates improve.

In this market, patience matters. But waiting for a dramatic rate drop may mean missing scarce inventory particularly in coastal communities such as Newport.

Memorial Day -
Flag Etiquette: Simple Guide

The American flag should generally be displayed from sunrise to sunset. It may be flown at night if properly illuminated.

When displayed on a wall or in a window, the blue field should be in the upper left from the viewer’s perspective.

When flown with other flags, the American flag should hold the position of honor. It should not be placed below another flag or to the left of another flag when equal prominence is intended. If flown on the same pole, the American flag goes at the top. If flown on adjacent poles, it is raised first and lowered last.

Flags of other nations should be flown on separate poles of equal height and should be similar in size.

When flown at half-staff, the flag is first raised to the top, then lowered to half-staff. Before being lowered for the day, it is raised to the top again. Memorial Day is half-staff until noon, then raised fully.

For home-mounted poles that cannot be lowered to half-staff, a black memorial streamer may be used.

The flag should never touch the ground. When used on a casket, the blue field rests at the head and over the left shoulder. It should not be lowered into the grave.

Key rule: display the flag with respect, proper placement, and adequate lighting. Don’t let it become decoration by neglect.
