Newport Beach Real Estate
When you think of luxury, high end, and expensive real estate home sales in Orange County, Newport Beach is often the first city to come to mind. The city is diverse with the beach front community of Corona Del Mar, the gated communities of Newport Coast, the vibrant Balboa Peninsula, iconic Balboa Island, family friendly Eastbluff and the Port Streets. Beyond the personalized touch of our Real Estate Agents and the beautiful properties we sell - TriVista delivers a lifestyle, which is uniquely Newport.
Irvine Real Estate
Irvine is the leading California city when it comes to being safe and having the best public education system. Traffic (inside of Irvine) isn't too bad, there are numerous parks, walking/riding trails, and has one of the most ethnically diverse populations in the United States. The homes in Irvine can range from condos, townhouses, standard homes, to the ultra-high end homes in areas such as Shady Canyon or Turtle Ridge. Many families choose Irvine because of it is consistently voted as "America's Safest City".
Laguna Beach Real Estate
Often called Orange County's Artist Colony Laguna Beach is where many tourists (and locals) go to enjoy the beach. The homes are expensive per square foot, but the views are amazing and the care free lifestyle makes everyone day dream just a little bit. There are definitely some tradeoffs to consider when living here (traffic and parking can be an issue), but for many this is their dream location, their "Shangri-La".
Single Family Homes, Condos, and Townhouses
The scenic beauty, collection of boutique shops, and commercial businesses truly make Newport Beach unique. Homes, like condos and townhouses, are often custom remodels, but one truth remains, in the Newport Beach real estate market, location is everything. Our specialty is marketing your home's brand in an unique story, which delivers the right buyer.
When it comes to the modern Newport Beach home, buyers look for views, light, and outdoor space. Open layouts are integral to your home's design: glass walls, private yards, entertainment spaces, and seamless indoor-outdoor spaces. Let us tell your home's story and accent these great features.

The Real Estate Market in Newport Beach, CA
Newport Beach Realtor - September 2022 Update
The luxury real estate in Newport Beach market caters to a small but active buyer pool and has distinct trends that set it apart from the regular Orange County real estate market as a whole. We have identified trends highlighting the main market movers in luxury real estate.
What is considered Luxury Real Estate in Newport Beach?
The property’s location, amenities, and design all factor into the price point for that area, however, we typically refer to homes over $3 Million as "Luxury" in Newport Beach. A property may be marketed as a luxury home, but only has one or two luxury amenities (or maybe within the desired location), but that doesn’t mean it’s worth a luxury price tag. Look at the property as a whole to assess its worth.
1. Luxury houses are still selling fast (approximately 40 days on the market)
2. Luxury home sizes vary across different parts of Newport Beach. 2-3,000 square foot homes are typical on the water, however, 4,000+ square foot homes are typical in Newport Coast, Port Streets, Spyglass Hill, East Bluff, or Back Bay.
3. Luxury home prices are increasing (we have seen a small decrease in regular property since March 2022). Eager sellers typically lower their prices, however, the luxury market generally has more sophisticated sellers, who know the value of the property.
4. Luxury second home ownership is on the rise - Many homes in Newport Coast, Corona Del Mar, and along the water are part-time homes. We believe this trend will continue to rise.
5. The Newport Beach luxury housing market is less affected by the housing shortage. There is only so much inventory to go around and with the increase in wealth we have had since 2020 - there is definitely a shortage of homes in the area.
6. Desired luxury home amenities are changing - land size is the number one amenity (sometimes view is interchanged here), other strong considerations are home office and swimming pool.
