The Larkspur W**e Stroll is this today - 4 to 7 PM on Magnolia Avenue.

The 14th Annual Downtown Larkspur W**e Stroll is one of the best community evenings on the Marin calendar: local w**eries pouring, food from the downtown restaurants, live music, and proceeds supporting the Larkspur Chamber of Commerce.

While you're strolling, stop by the Compass booth for Legacy at Lucas Valley - 28 new contemporary homes in San Rafael, built with real attention to detail and priced from about $3 million. Several are already in escrow, with more on the way. Sales Director Michael Brizzolara will be at the booth to answer questions.

If you've been curious about Legacy, this is the easy way to get your questions answered — no appointment, w**e in hand.

Tickets are through the Larkspur Chamber.

A fun one this week: 5 Country Lane, our Novato listing - marketed on Compass Coming Soon and now in escrow - was the lead featured home in Leonard Steinberg's Compass Catch. That's the daily email Leonard sends 365 days a year, to a reported 50,000 subscribers across the country. And our sellers' home sat at the very top of it.

Huge congratulations to my sellers. You prepare a home carefully, you make a few bold presentation calls, and sometimes the payoff shows up in ways you didn't plan for.

My honest read on why this one led the stack: the orange front door and the twilight photography. A good reminder that how a home is presented determines who sees it, and how far it travels.

If a sale is anywhere on your 2026 horizon, message me - I'm glad to show you my marketing plan, start to finish.

Marin County just split into two housing markets.

Per BAREIS MLS, Q2 2026: homes that went into contract within 30 days closed at 105.72% of asking. Homes that sat past 120 days settled at 84.24%. On the median Marin home, that spread is worth $385,000 - and the discount starts at day 31, not month four.

My new video walks through all six towns: Kentfield (+20.4%), Larkspur (+32.1%), Tiburon (-5.8%), Mill Valley (+11.9%), San Rafael (+5.1%), and Novato (-2.7%).

Which town's numbers surprised you most?
