Jamaican Idyll
By Camilla McLaughlin

ur cover features an idyllic Jamaican seaside villa,
Jasmin Hill, an indulgent retreat and ultimate home
base to explore and enjoy Ocho Rios. The location
along Hermosa Lane is exclusive and private. Surrounded
by verandas and patios, this spectacular villa perches at the
water’s edge overlooking the Caribbean Sea, lulled year-round
by tropical breezes.
“Jasmin Hill is a destination in itself, and one can just
as easily enjoy a day at one of Ocho Rios’s many tourist
attractions as they can choose to revel in a day in the sun, the
water and the relaxed lifestyle at the villa,” shares Gillian Black
with Coldwell Banker Jamaica Realty.
Updated as recently as four years ago, the home deftly
marries hallmarks of Jamaican design with Art Deco influences
in a gracious interior that celebrates the island’s laid-back vibe.

Cut stone walkways line the water’s edge and wind
through the grounds connecting the main house with an ultra-
private guest suite, gazebo, dock, and numerous places to
lounge and dine. The well-equipped fitness center, whimsically
dubbed “Dr. Bird’s Jungle Gym,” is set back from the water’s
edge and is almost hidden under a lush canopy of greenery, a
striking contrast with the sea’s blue hues. The dock, a much-
desired amenity, makes sea exploration and play integral to
the experience.
“Water enthusiasts can spend the day relaxing by the
pool, kayaking and snorkeling in the sea or embark on a
coastline cruise or fishing trip from the property’s private
dock,” adds Black. As secluded as the lifestyle may seem, Ian
Fleming International Airport is only minutes away.
“Ocho Rios has long been the elegant seaside escape of
the jet set. Prime location standalone waterfront estates have
become more difficult to come by. It is simply a luxury to live
privately by the sea,” shares Black, who has the listing.
Jasmin Hill Villa is offered for USD $4,960,000.

 ‘Life In our exclusive mid-year report, we see a housing
market buoyed by changes in life stages and lifestyle.

Happens’ By Camilla McLaughlin

F
rom millennials seeking a family refuge while sorting out
changing work demands to boomers looking to embrace life
changes, a new buyer paradigm is taking shape, altering the
map of residential luxury.
Even experts seem baffled by the current status of real estate.
Recently, two well-publicized transactions in Los Angeles broke price
records. An expansive waterfront estate in Malibu sold for $190 million,
creating a new benchmark for residential prices in California. Also
notable was a reported $60 million transaction to Ben Affleck and
Jennifer Lopez, one of the highest sales in the general Mulholland area,
according to Global Marketing Specialist Joyce Rey, with Coldwell
Banker Realty in Beverly Hills. These two notables stand in contrast
to recent stats in Los Angeles, in which the sales volume in the
$10-million-plus range was down 42% in May. The slowdown can, in
part, be attributed to a new tax on $5-million-plus sales, which became
active in April, making this area a prime luxury market to watch.
This scenario is unique to the LA market, but still illustrates the
contradictions of the current market, where prices are holding relatively
steady, especially in the Northeast and Midwest, and inventories of
homes for sale are slim even though mortgage rates hover around 7%.
Year-over-year, sales dropped 20.4% nationally, with the $1-million-plus
segment off by 22%, while days on market for this group number 15.
On the other hand, locations mainly in the eastern half of the country
see brisk sales and small price increases. Everywhere, the lack of
inventory persists and continues to constrain transactions.
“There is no question that the current luxury home sale

CARIBBEAN
COOL By Roger Grody
Luxury residences near Seven Mile Beach, Grand Cayman
Unique natural environments, diversity of lifestyles, and proximity to large American markets
contribute to an unrivaled luxury real estate market.
S ugar-white beaches, waters glistening
in otherworldly aqua iridescence and
hundreds of islands—each with their own
culture and vibe—make the Caribbean a
truly unique destination. Furthermore,
easy access from North American cities
makes it far more practical for vacation
homebuyers than the Côte d’Azur,
Maldives or Bora Bora, and there is no
shortage of extraordinary amenities.
The Bahamas, Cayman Islands, and Aruba
represent three alluring opportunities for
luxury real estate investors, all offering
the advantages of easy access from
major markets, safety and security, and
a variety of upmarket indulgences. For
buyers seeking to incorporate a Caribbean
lifestyle into their regular routine, these
2
destinations are among the most coveted
in the region and each one benefits from
the assistance of local Berkshire Hathaway
HomeServices network professionals.
Just 100 miles from the American mainland,
the Bahamas represent the closest slice

East Coast residents an opportunity to
spend weekends at their luxury vacation
homes on one of the Bahamas’ 700
islands. In addition to stunning beaches,
the country’s sophisticated hospitality
infrastructure includes sailing, golf,
shopping, and dining—even a robust arts
scene. Jim Bernard, a Bahamas native
and owner/broker of Berkshire Hathaway
HomeServices Bahamas Real Estate,
reiterates the draw: “We average
 340 sunny days a year, have some of
the best beaches in the world and are
conveniently located to North America.”
Reporting there are direct flights to
Nassau from up and down the East
Coast, Bernard adds, “You’ll use your
second home more if it’s easy to get to.”
At least 75 percent of buyers are from
the U.S. and Canada, but Bernard also
reports strong interest from Europe. He
cites the stable government, safety,
and tax-friendly environment as major
advantages, as well as an opportunity
to buy and sell properties in U.S. dollars.
The Bahamas also offers an attractive
permanent residency program, requiring
an investment of just US$750,000.
Bernard says luxury ocean-view
condominiums are available for

approximately US$750,000, or
US$1 million if directly on the beach. Prices
for single-family residences start at
about US$3 million, but homes with bona
fide beachfront begin at US$10 million.
According to the veteran broker, the
pandemic triggered a market for primary
residences, and now many of those
transplants are trading up. Among the
many homes currently offered by Berkshire
Hathaway HomeServices Bahamas Real
Estate is a 7,000-square-foot estate on
Paradise Island for US$8.495 million, and a
penthouse with marina and ocean views
for US$6.6 million, both showcasing an
extravagant Bahamian lifestyle.
Despite global economic headwinds,
owner/broker Paula McCartney of recently
opened Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
Cayman Islands sees no indications of
the local luxury market softening, with
high-net-worth individuals paying cash
for multimillion-dollar properties. Her
partner, owner/broker Anthony Lawson,
adds, “Our market is very resilient and
in past recessions, it has flattened, but
never really dipped.” In addition to enjoying
some of the world’s most pristine beaches,
homeowners in the Caymans appreciate
the renowned sailing, diving, world-class
cuisine, and nightlife.
Dismissing the concept of competing
with other Caribbean destinations,
McCartney says, “There’s something
unique and different about all of our
islands.” She notes, however, that the
exceptionally tax-friendly environment of
the Cayman Islands, its security, and
Infinity pool at Casa Mare on Paradise Island

Downtown district of Nassau City and Paradise Island, Bahamas
presence of sophisticated financial
services make it particularly inviting
to affluent buyers. Emphasizing the
destination’s convenience, McCartney
quips, “I can fly to Miami in less time
than it takes someone to drive from Fort
Lauderdale to Miami in rush hour.”
“The capital appreciation here is
phenomenal, averaging 10 percent per
annum over the last 40 years,” says
Dutch colonial buildings in Oranjestad, Aruba
McCartney, noting that investors can
own up to three income properties
without obtaining a business license.
“Luxury doesn’t mean the same thing to
everybody,” she says, noting that some
buyers appreciate the amenities of a
Ritz-Carlton-branded condominium while
others prefer a stand-alone residence.
Lawson shares that while most available
real estate is on Grand Cayman, some
buyers crave the even more laid-back
islands of Little Cayman and Cayman
Brac, which offer some of the best diving
experiences in the world.
McCartney, a longtime resident, identifies

would be ideal for a family with live-in staff
or a celebrity seeking absolute privacy.
Speaking to the overall Cayman lifestyle,
Lawson shares, “We offer a fantastic
product, and now, with Berkshire Hathaway
HomeServices, we have a fantastic brand to
showcase it.”

of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
Aruba Realty, reports that because the
island remains part of the Kingdom of
the Netherlands, foreign buyers enjoy
an assurance of safety and stability.
Additionally, in an era of increasingly
devastating storms, prospective buyers
are pleased to learn that Aruba lies outside
the path of most hurricanes.

estate veteran whose office joined
the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
network in late 2022. “There’s no
limitation to investment by foreigners in
Aruba, and everyone’s welcome,” notes
Kok, who advises that most buyers are
from the U.S. and Canada, followed by
the Netherlands and other European
countries. The market also generates
interest from South American buyers,
indicates the Luxury Collection
Specialist.
Kok explains that some buyers are
people who have been visiting Aruba
for many years, staying at hotels or
timeshares, and have finally decided to
purchase properties for future vacations
or retirement. Noting that some buyers
discovered Aruba when seeking a safe
refuge from COVID-19, Kok says, “During
the pandemic, there was an explosion in
demand for residential properties.” He
adds, “Now we’re seeing a more stable Snorkeling off Cayman Island shores
market, but still very high demand.” Kok
reports Aruba has never experienced
a recession and that current fears of
slowing global growth are not affecting
local demand.
In Aruba, a luxury ocean-view
condominium or a single-family villa in a
gated community with golf course can
be purchased for as little as US$1 million.

DESIGN IT
YOURSELF
By Marlene Ridgway

In a world of ever-changing
trends, homeowners can
bring a personal flair to
their homes with custom
designs through unique
opportunities.

C ustom embroidered wallcoverings,

fabrics, tiles, stained glass windows,
and more are possible with the help of
experienced brands that bring a design

vision to life with quality, care, and
creativity.

“We like that our service is personal, as

so much of interior design comes down
to taste,” explains Max Findlay, chief
executive officer of Peel & Paper. This
custom wallpaper company allows its
customers’ individual tastes to shine.
Christine Speare, a senior project
manager at de Gournay, a hand-painted
wallpaper and fabrics company with
showrooms in Shanghai, Beirut, San
Francisco, Paris, London, and New York,
says, “As our collections and techniques
have developed, we’ve noticed increased
popularity, not just for the designs, but
also specific custom interpretations,
as people seek to incorporate them into
contemporary projects with ever more
fantastical briefs.”
The concept of custom design is not
new, and continues to be desired among
luxury homeowners. But with advanced
technology, it has become more accessible.
The well-known company, Zazzle Inc., has
900,000 independent creators. Customers
can choose from the millions of pre-created
designs, and print them on a seemingly
infinite number of products. However,
there’s still a craving for quality to be part
of the custom mix.
Every single element of
each design is painted in
the most wonderful detail
by our highly skilled artists.”

“Our hand-embroidery techniques on
wallpaper and wall upholstery have
really elevated in the past few years,”

VIRGINIA
BEACH VIBES
S till deciding on your next getaway?
The picturesque city of Virginia Beach,
Virginia, may offer everything you’re
looking for in a destination and more.
Susan Pender from Berkshire Hathaway
HomeServices RW Towne Realty shares
her local perspective on the best places
to stay, play, dine, and relax in this
oceanfront paradise.
STAY
Virginia Beach has many popular
accommodations, including The Historic
Cavalier Hotel & Beach Club, which
originally opened in 1927. In terms of
newer lodgings, Pender recommends
Chix photo by The Girl Tyler; others courtesy of Lisa Davenport.
the brand new, luxurious Moxy Virginia
Beach Oceanfront hotel, which features
both “smart rooms and stylish communal
spaces” and is located right on the
oceanfront. She also suggests the Bees
Nees Pink House, which, as the name
suggests, is an idyllic pink bungalow
moments from the beach, “stylish and
cozy, with a heated plunge pool.”
DINE
The restaurants in Virginia Beach all seem
to take advantage of the natural beauty
of the area. One of the newest and most
exciting places, according to Pender, is
The Porch on Long Creek, an American/
The Historic Cavalier Hotel & Beach Club
seafood establishment known as
a prime spot for boat watching and
taking in gorgeous sunsets. Pender
also suggests another new destination
not to miss is Oscar’s Oceanside, a fine
dining location directly on the ocean.
PLAY
The region offers no shortage of
compelling destinations. Pender
recommends visiting the Military
Aviation Museum just south of the city
or venturing off the coast to enjoy a
dolphin-watching boat tour. One of the Bees Nees Pink House
newest places recommended by Pender
is the ViBe Creative District. This area
is “known for its trendy restaurants,
museums, and brightly colored murals
by local artists.”
RELAX
When not unwinding on the beach, if
you’re trying to find a nice spot to relax
while in town, Pender says one of the
best places to look is First Landing State
Park, which is “known for its nice walking
trails amongst the trees and along
the water.” She also suggests taking
a walk to see the Back Bay National
Wildlife Refuge, which is 9,200 acres
of protected wildlife land filled with an

Opening the sails with custom fabric by Brook Perdigon Textiles
T wenty years ago, fashionable options
for outdoor living were limited, with
unimaginative aesthetics and synthetic
finishes dominating even high-end
furnishings. But with sophisticated
outdoor spaces now de rigueur in luxury
residences, exciting new design solutions
have emerged.
The trend was already accelerating, but
demand for designer-quality products
for exterior living spaces skyrocketed
during the pandemic. Homeowners
developed a greater appreciation for
the outdoor spaces available to them—
not just in mild climates, but across
the nation. Amenities like fireplaces
and chandeliers are making their way
outside, while entire furniture lines
are being redesigned to accommodate
indoor-outdoor lifestyles.

DRESSING
THE DECK
With showrooms across the country,
JANUS et Cie is considered a premier
manufacturer of resort-style outdoor
furniture. The company’s hospitality
clients—five-star properties like
Raffles Singapore and Hotel du Cap-
Eden-Roc on the Côte d’Azur—further
burnish the brand’s reputation. JANUS
et Cie’s collections frequently involve
collaborations with world-class designers,
resulting in products such as the Strada
high-back settee by Italian architect Paola
Navone or the stylish Gina recamier by
Piero Lissoni.
Carolina Zhang, JANUS et Cie’s vice
president of product development,
was particularly enthusiastic about a
partnership with pioneering architect
Philippe Starck. “This collaboration has
been an extraordinary opportunity to

of exterior spaces is

that bring a sense of
indulgence outdoors.
share in Starck’s vision of a distinctively
nature-inspired collection forged in
excellence to withstand the elements
and be enjoyed for generations to come,”
she said at the debut of the Serengeti
collection.
Brown Jordan is another company
offering an impressive spectrum
of high-end outdoor furniture that
includes its new Oliver collection from
designer Ann Marie Vering, inspired
by the bucket seats of a 1964 Fiat Jolly
and by the carefree Mediterranean
lifestyle the car evokes. “As people
continue to use their outdoor spaces as
an extension of their interiors, outdoor
spaces have become more of a focal
point and are given as much attention
as their indoor counterparts,” maintains
Gene Moriarty, the company’s president

Boat dressings by Brook Perdigon Textiles
and CEO. “Many Brown Jordan pieces
Photo credit: Andrew Stewart (left and bottom left), Adrian Gaut (top right),
are designed with both outdoor and
indoor living in mind and can be used in
both settings,” he adds.
Los Angeles-based Brook Perdigon
Sutherland Furniture (bottom middle), Tuuci (bottom right)
Textiles recently introduced Outbounds,
a collection of performance fabrics
resistant to children, pets, and natural
elements. “The pandemic turned the
outdoor spaces that we once used
sparingly into all-the-time living spaces,”
reports founder Brook Perdigon. “They
became the additional room to escape
to, and if you were brave enough to
entertain, the outdoors became the
place to do it,” she adds.
Noting her Outbounds collection is
suitable for both indoor and outdoor
use, Perdigon suggests, “Each design
provides a modern and durable backdrop
Chaise from the Oliver Collection by Brown Jordan
Oceana Lounge Chair by
Sutherland Furniture
for relaxed living and casual entertaining.”
With these fabrics, designers can adapt
virtually any kind of furniture to the
outdoors, no longer constrained by
the product lines of outdoor furniture
manufacturers.
Tuuci, a Miami-headquartered brand
specializing in shade solutions, has
brought newfound excitement to
the humble umbrella. The company’s
sculptural parasols, trellises, and cabanas
can transform any backyard into a resort
environment. Recently introduced at
Salone del Mobile, Milan’s influential trade
show, is the Ocean Master MEGA MAX
Classic, which gracefully spans up to 24
feet while resisting wind gusts of 75 miles
per hour.
“Tuuci’s passion is to create comfort
and accessibility in the harshest
House MEGA MAX umbrella by Tuuci
environments on earth,” explains
Dougan Clarke, the company’s founder,
CEO and chief product architect.
“Focusing on engineering and robust
design, while leaning into our marine
roots, has allowed us to create
architectural structures for the ultimate
outdoor destination,” he says.
Sutherland Furniture, a brand that
premier professionals turn to for
sophisticated outdoor living spaces,
recently released its Oceana line,
designed by Bannenberg & Rowell,
whose usual medium is superyachts.
Simon Rowell, creative director of the
UK-based yacht design firm, states,
“Our first major production furniture
range represents the same synthesis of
movement, experience and pioneering
spirit. And comfort.”

EFFERVESCENCE
By Roger Grody

No product conveys the

very essence of luxury like
Champagne, and its far-
reaching cultural adoptions
range from Formula One to
the World Series—and from
James Bond to P. Diddy.

C hampagne is a timeless metaphor

for luxury, and connoisseurs have
always had a fascination with the most
iconic labels, from elegant Dom Pérignon
to hard-partying Cristal. Nothing
speaks to the gravity of an occasion like
Champagne, and an exploration of the
world’s most coveted bottles can be a
worthy lifelong pursuit.

Sophie Gayot leads a team of food, travel,

and lifestyle writers at GAYOT.com,
originally launched by her father,
prominent French publisher André Gayot,
and her brother Alain. Offering insights
on the glamorous sparkling beverage,
she says, “Champagne only comes from
France, which is considered the most
luxurious country, reflected in fashion,
art, and cuisine.” The journalist, whose
website features extensive wine content,
adds, “Champagne has a connotation of
festivity and its bubbles bring something Rare Henriot Cuve 38
Champagne Handmade fine art bottle cover by K-Over
different to the table.”

Champagne has a

- Sophie Gayot
As a policy, Ms. Gayot generally does
not divulge her favorite restaurants or
brands, but her website cites specific
vintages of Cuvée William from Deutz,
Grand Cuvée from Krug, and Sir Winston
Churchill from Pol Roger on a list of the
finest prestige Champagnes. Gayot
suggests that cost can sometimes be
misleading, as consumers are willing to
pay a premium for what they perceive
as exclusivity or cachet. Personally,
she enjoys Champagnes with smaller
bubbles, and when pressed on what
foods pair best with Champagne, Gayot
concedes, “Almost everything goes
with Champagne.”
For pure unadulterated extravagance,
nothing rivals Goût de Diamants (“Taste
of Diamonds”) from GDD Chapuy, a
privately commissioned Champagne
that commanded nearly $2 million.
The spectacular packaging features a
platinum bottle enclosure encrusted
with a 19-carat diamond.
Founded in 1808, the esteemed
Champagne producer Maison Henriot
represents eight generations of family
leadership. Henriot CEO Richard Moreau
says, “For centuries, Champagne has
been favored by royalty and celebrities,
which has cemented the association
with luxury and sophistication.” He
notes that Henriot’s Champagnes were
quickly embraced by aristocracy, with its
vintages enjoyed by the royal courts of
Holland, Austria and Hungary.
Marking the 200th vintage of the house
since its founding is Henriot’s Cuvée
Hemera 2008, a soon-to-be-released
Champagne named after the Greek
Goddess of Daylight. Noting the 2008
vintage is, fortuitously, an excellent
one, Moreau says, “Hemera is regarded
as an elegant, refined Champagne with
complex flavors and a light, delicate
body.” Even more rare is Maison Henriot’s
Cuve 38, a special blend of the most
prestigious Grand Cru Chardonnays from
the Côte des Blancs, of which only 1,000
magnums are produced each year. “This
is a truly special wine and unique gift,”
says Moreau.
As in most alcohol categories, the
Champagne industry has witnessed an
influx of celebrity-branded products, and
arguably the most acclaimed celebrity
Champagne garnished with
red raspberries and thyme
label is Armand de Brignac, a venture
of billionaire musician Jay-Z, now half-
owned by luxury conglomerate LVMH,
whose impressive stable of Champagne
brands also features Dom Pérignon, Moët
& Chandon, Krug, and Veuve Clicquot.
Armand de Brignac, easily recognizable
by a distinctive pewter Ace of Spades
insignia adhered to a mirror-glazed
bottle, has a much longer history than
most celebrity-branded alcohols. The
house dates to 1763 (the Champagne
is still created by a staff of artisans in
Chigny-les-Roses, France) and regularly
earns high scores from respected wine
journalists. Retail prices of Armand de
Brignac generally range from about
$300 to more than $3,000, but the
limited-edition Armand de Brignac Rosé
Midas Champagne—presented in a
30-liter, glossy pink bottle—was priced at
$275,000.
For the Champagne lover who has
everything, any bottle of Champagne can
be dramatically transformed with a fine
art bottle cover by K-Over. Among the
company’s products is a hand-painted,
24-karat gold-plated cover inspired by
the “The Kiss” by painter Gustav Klimt,
crafted by Florentine master goldsmith
Stefano Vigni and priced at approximately
$23,000.

LIVING THE
LAKE LIFE
By Jamie Yoos
C alifornia’s Lake Tahoe is an
esteemed national treasure and
spectacular destination adored for its
breathtaking scenery, crystal clear and
cool waters, and rich history. Surrounded
by the majestic Sierra Mountain range, its
four distinct seasons welcome athletes,
adventurers, and casual travelers alike,
offering something for everyone.
Here, we explore recommendations
from Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
network members specializing in various
areas of Lake Tahoe, along with some of
their favorite hidden gems.
“South Shore serves the largest resident
population around the lake and has the
largest variety of businesses,” says
Deb Howard of Berkshire Hathaway
HomeServices Drysdale Properties. “It’s
home to several resort casinos and the
largest hotel and bed base in the Lake
Tahoe Basin.”
94
Hiking opportunities are plentiful, and are a
Tahoe staple. Howard suggests trails that
scale the majestic Sierra Mountain scapes—
what she calls “a mountain biker and hiker’s
exploration nirvana.” Personally, she loves
Fallen Leaf Lake and Tahoe Rim Trail.
A day on the lake is
the best day ever.
A summertime must-do.”
- Deb Howard
Foodies will surely be pleased by the
variety of dining options. Howard suggests
Freshies Ohana Restaurant and Bar; “The
outside deck is a must-do for lunch and
dinner. Stop for ice cream at the Rainbow
Island Ice Cream Shoppe, which you pass
on your way to Freshies.”
“The nightlife is robust with outdoor dining,
taverns and lounges with a vibrant social
View of Emerald Bay from Eagle Falls
and music scene.” Howard endorses the
American Century Golf Championship at
Edgewood, Harvey’s outdoor music series,
and the potholes: swimming holes carved
out of the granite landscape at Silver Lake
that she regards as a South Shore gem. Of
course, she encourages folks to enjoy the
lakes. “A day on the lake is the best day ever.
A summertime must-do.”
Kimberly Boyle of Berkshire Hathaway
HomeServices Drysdale Properties offers
Tahoe City expertise. “Tahoe City is all
about outdoor recreation with the whole
family. Boating, kayaking, beach days,
hiking, biking, and al fresco dining are
just some of the attractions you’ll find on
any summer day.” She enjoys the weekly
concert series at Common’s Beach. “I love
bringing all the fixings for a picnic during
the concert. A great event for families.”
Boyle recommends the Tahoe City Farmers
Market on Commons Beach
 and the the Tahoe City Food and Wine
Classic, where guests can sample local
restaurants. Sunset cruises on the Tahoe
Gal, chartering a boat, wakesurfing, and
appreciating the public beaches and
trails are among her suggestions as well.
Mountain biking through the forest Boating on Lake Tahoe
“Blackwood Canyon is a hidden gem and

wonderful if you’re looking to get away

from the crowds.” For a bite, Boyle praises
River Grill, popular amongst locals and
visitors alike with a great happy hour and
live music.

Lastly, Alison Elder of Berkshire Hathaway

HomeServices Drysdale Properties,
Elder Group Tahoe Real Estate, provides
insight on Truckee—recently named
one of the best places to retire and in
the top 10 small towns with millionaires
by Kiplinger. With a unique history as
an early California railroad town, it has
since become a recognized vacation View of Donner Lake from Donner Summit Bridge

Tahoe.

“A variety of indoor/outdoor dining with

fantastic organic food is available, and a
wonderful Farmer’s Market on Tuesdays
in the summer months,” she says. “The
integrated bike paths are fabulous.
Truckee Thursdays is a big hit. The Old
Town area is closed off and there are so
many vendors—jewelry, food, beverages,
live entertainment—it’s very popular.”

Truckee offers a myriad of ways to get

active in the summer. “Northstar has a
great outdoor adventure course and an
amazing downhill biking adventure for
all levels. Palisades offers rock climbing,
Granlibakken offers zip-lining. Donner
Lake and Lake Tahoe offer boat and
jet ski rentals.”

Elder personally loves a 20-mile ride along

the Truckee River on the Legacy Trail,
breakfast at Squeeze Inn, a private boat
ride on Lake Tahoe, and enjoying the
Lake Tahoe east shore beach
sunset from a private pier at Donner Lake.

EXPLORING
THE GREEK
ISLES By
Lara
Becker Cape Drastis on Corfu Island

What’s your pleasure? All-night parties? Ancient archaeology? Pink sand

beaches and charming mountain villages? Views of clear blue water?
Food, music and wine? Here we help you do your homework to determine
Top photo by Aleh Varanishcha/ ©istockphoto.com: Bottom photo by gatsi/ stock.adobe.com

which Greek islands might be the best for your next vacation.

If you are searching for a picture-perfect

vacation with crashing waves and
ancient ruins—or maybe a trip where
you can live out Mamma Mia dreams by
the water—then look no further than the
gorgeous islands of Greece. They’ve
got the perfect balance of rich history,
relaxing beach lifestyles, and everything
in between.
Kyriakos Xydis, managing partner of
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
Athens Properties, gives a glimpse into life
on these islands, and where to go based
on the type of locale that suits you best.
MYKONOS
When you think of Greece, you might
picture cerulean skies meeting white sand
beaches, and rows of spiral staircases
etched into spectacular landscapes. “Our
unique islands and seaside locations have
wonderful beaches and cool blue waters
that you can only find in Greece,” Xydis
says of his home country.
If you’re looking to achieve this classic
snapshot, similar to what is captured in
Mamma Mia and other films, Mykonos
may be for you. But as the day goes on in
Mykonos, the party emerges.
Xydis says this island has the perfect
“summer party” atmosphere. The most
famed beaches here are Paradise and
Super Paradise, where booming music
can often be heard for miles. Famous DJs
travel from across the globe to lead these
all-night events, at massive beachfront
clubs that often stay open way past
dawn. But after the partying is over, Xydis
notes that there are iconic landmarks to
travel to as well—particularly a row of 16th
century windmills, sitting atop a small
Mykonos town. Mykonos Port, Cyclades Islands

BERKSHIREHATHAWAYHS.COM 101
 View of Caldera, Santorini
SANTORINI
Just as popular is the beautiful Santorini.
“Santorini was devastated by a volcanic
eruption in the 16th century B.C., forever
shaping its rugged landscape,” Xydis
notes. “The whitewashed, cubiform
houses of its two principal towns, Fira and
Oia, cling to cliffs above an underwater
caldera (crater). They overlook the sea,
small islands to the west, and beaches
made up of black, red, and white lava
pebbles.”
Santorini’s distinct look and feel came to
be because of this volcano, which is still
active to this day. Perched high in the sky,
Santorini is now known for this unique
geology, which people come from all over
to see. Sunsets with out-of-this-world
views are a favorite of visitors here.
102
Restaurants on streets of Crete Island
Paleokastritsa beach on Corfu Island
CRETE & CORFU
When searching for more wonders of
the world, many travel sites recommend
Crete and Corfu for even more history
and beauty. Crete was a focal point in
ancient Greek mythology and had a
booming civilization—it is the largest
Greek island, with many adjacent
archipelagos of its own.
For the best experience, travel
aficionados recommend staying on the
main island of Crete, and not on one of
its subsequent islands. Here, make sure
you take some time enjoying Crete’s
pink sand beaches, traveling through
the plentiful mountain villages, or
experiencing the joys of Cretan wineries.
On every Greek island, in
every hidden corner of
Greece, there are unique
restaurants and bars for all
tastes and all wallets.”
- Kyriakos Xydis
Corfu is another fantastic location for
travel, and is a part of the Ionian Sea. It
offers a more down-to-earth feel, with
lush grass and rocky peaks all over the
island. There are many historic, 18th
Loutra Edipsou, North Euboea
century villas to stay in on Corfu, which
allow you to take advantage of poolside
lavishness, or explore the olive trees on
Left photo by neirfy/ stock.adobe.com; Top middle photo by Freeartist / ©istockphoto.com; Bottom middle photo by
the land.
In Corfu, make sure to travel to Old Town,
where you can discover winding stone
streets with Italian-inspired architecture
and food.
EUBOEA
When asked what the “hidden gem” of
the Greek isles might be, Xydis did not
hesitate to mention Euboea island. If
you’re looking to travel off the beaten
SCStock/ ©istockphoto.com; Right photo by Gatsi/ ©istockphoto.com
path in Greece, this is an example of a
locale with far less crowds, but just as
amazing of an experience.
“It is an extremely big island, with so
many diverse destinations that cover
the needs of the most demanding
customers,” he says.
Euboea is the second-largest island
geographically. Evia is the most common
beachfront here, with all-access views
to the clear blue water. It also has a rich
history with ancient ruins of theaters,
a once-famous trade center, and the
thought-to-be location of Aristotle’s
death.
Euboea is connected to the mainland
with a bridge, just a few hours outside of
Athens International Airport by car.

DINING
“On every Greek island, in every
hidden corner of Greece, there are
unique restaurants and bars for all
tastes and all wallets,” Xydis notes.
There’s everything from Michelin-star
restaurants, to traditional taverns with
centuries-old recipes and stories.
But above all, he encourages travelers
to interact with residents in order to
find the best fare: “Greeks are very
friendly. What I strongly recommend is,
in each destination, ask two to three
Greeks (the one who owns a small mini
market, the waiter in a cafe, et cetera)
to recommend a place with good food,
nice music, and drinks. This is how you
will discover the real secrets of our
country, islands, and destinations.”
WHEN SHOULD I BOOK?
For Mykonos or Santorini, it’s best
to book as soon as possible. Travel
authorities report 220,000 visitors in a
single week in 2022, and some hotels
in Mykonos reaching up to 90-percent
occupancy.
For the other islands, and as a general
rule, travel agents recommend
booking a Greek vacation as early
as six or seven months before your
intended departure date.
“Every Greek tourist destination,
every Greek island, even the smallest,
has at least 10 beaches with amazing
clear blue waters—visit as many
places as you can,” says Xydis, who
has helped many travelers secure the

likely to change for
the better in the near
future,” observes Bob
continued from page 49 Hurwitz, founder and
CEO of the Hurwitz
James Company. “There are a number of well-known factors affecting
the market in general, and luxury homes are not exempt. Although most
of the apex property buyers are paying cash and not as affected by the
increased interest rates, the overall financial uncertainty, inflation, and the
unwillingness or lack of necessity for sellers to either reduce prices or
even put their homes on the market at such a time are all impactful.”
“You don’t see interest rates affecting the luxury market like other
segments,” shares Kathleen Bibbins, general manager for the Institute for
Los Angeles
The impact of a new mansion tax on luxury transactions will take months to assess, making LA a prime market to watch in 2023.

“Consumer demand for housing has defied logic throughout 2023,

which is a testament to the demographic tailwinds of today’s market and
the inherent desire for homeownership,” said Ali Wolf, chief economist at
Zonda Economics. It’s “a ‘life happens’ type of market,” in which sales are
driven primarily by changes in life stages and lifestyle, she explains.
In Manhattan, Joanne Hoagland with Compass sees a “necessity
Luxury Home Marketing.
“It’s remarkable how resilient the housing market has been,” says
Marci Rossell, chief economist for Leading Real Estate Companies of
the World. “If you had presented the current scenario of mortgage rates
jumping to 7% four years ago, I would have expected prices to be down
by 10%, 15%, even 20%. That’s what you would have expected,” she
says, adding, “Nope! We’re not seeing that happening.”
Mid-year 2023 price forecasts range from a slight decline of
0.6% (Realtor.com) to a 4% increase (CoreLogic) by mid 2024. Zillow’s
revised forecast estimates a 5% hike in home values. Lawrence Yun,
chief economist for the National Association of Realtors, projects a 1.8%
price growth. Until interest rates come down, Rossell does not expect
improvement in inventories. And like other economists, including the
Mortgage Bankers Association, she anticipates rates to begin to come
down by year end or early 2024.
versus luxury mindset” affecting sales. “While the $5-wmillion-plus luxury
market is moving along at a healthy clip in 2023, smaller units seem to
be more consistently trading. Buyers seem less aspirational today than is
typical due to uncertainty around economic activity, interest rates still not
settled, political activity ramping up ahead of the upcoming elections, et
cetera.” Prices continue to edge up in Manhattan.
Underlying demographic forces support high-end sales.

 “Consumers at the high end just have a lot of cash on hand,
even with the stock market gyrations over the last 18 months. People’s
investment accounts are jam-packed and that’s what makes a difference
in the higher end,” says Rossell.
According to the Institute for Luxury Homes Marketing (ILHM), the
number of luxury home sales edged up month-over-month in 2023. May
saw a 33% sales increase for single-family homes compared to April. Also
growing was high-end inventory with single-family up 22% and attached
14%, on par with May 2022.
Manhattan
The Big Apple continues to star among global metros. Prices are holding steady, even charting a slight increase.
Hyperlocal
Location matters even more. In fact, “hyperlocal” is the way some
experts describe the current market. A good example is Florida, a favored
pandemic refuge that is just now beginning to see subtle shifts. Tami
Simms, a trainer for ILHM and an agent with Coastal Properties Group
International in St. Petersburg, Florida, explains: “In my South Pinellas
County area, we remain in a sellers’ market, still experiencing a lack of
inventory, so properties that are in desirable locations, presented well
and priced well, are selling in a matter of days, often at or above list price.
Properties that are overpriced or have some sort of deficiency will be

Regarding buyers, Whitney LaCosta, Howard Hanna/Coach
Realtors and chairperson at Leading Real Estate Companies of the World,
says, “I think they’re broadening their search. It’s no longer somewhere
they want to go and be retired; it’s somewhere they want to have an
experience and be in different parts of the country or the world. Instead
of just visiting, they want to own a home there. They want to have roots in
those places where they find joy.”

area, with a much higher median sale price, they’ve actually shifted to a
buyers’ market, so it is definitely hyperlocal.”
Miami once again reported the highest price increase, 5.2%, among
20 cities in the most recent S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller Index. Chicago
edged into second place with a 4.1% year-over-year gain. Both Chicago
and Boston are experiencing a normal market, per Case-Shiller, and their
suburban areas are even more robust.
 Atlanta’s pace continues in 2023, and the city continues to
outperform other metros. “Maybe not as crazy as last year, but it’s still
very healthy. We continue to have a high demand of people moving here,”
says Debra Johnston with Coldwell Banker Realty in Atlanta.
Second homes continue to be prized. In most of those locales, too

few homes are the primary constraint. Even states such as Vermont are
experiencing a shortage of inventory. Vermont ranked third, behind New
Jersey and Indiana, among states with the highest price gains in April, per
Case-Shiller. Ten states, including Washington, Idaho, Utah, and Nevada,
recorded annual losses.
Despite some buyers pausing, the prices for prime properties and
vacation rentals across the board in Europe are trending upward with
Americans still very active in markets including Spain, according to recent
research from Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices.
“Across Cape Cod, sales are down year-to-date compared to
2022, likely due to a combination of low inventory and general economic
uncertainty. It’s now a more balanced environment for buyers, yet price
gains seen over the last couple of years are holding. One thing that’s
particularly interesting, however, is that sales of $5 million and above are
even year over year. This segment of buyers is less likely to be impacted
by today’s interest rates, and they view real estate in a premium market
like Cape Cod as a safe investment,” explains Paul Grover, co-founder of
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties in Osterville,
Massachusetts.
North Carolina’s mountain locales continue to be in demand,
particularly for individuals looking to escape the heat. The average list
prices here continue to top the $1 million mark. But it’s changed. “Two

years ago, people were just writing a check. They weren’t even asking
much. Now people are at least doing more research,” says Terry Potts of
Country Club Properties. And in addition to retirees, newcomers are apt to
own a business and often work remotely.
In May, according to ILHM data, Aspen tracked one of the highest
median sold prices in the U.S., charting $20 million for single-family
homes. But potential local changes in zoning regarding home sizes could
shift future market dynamics.
Boulder, a perennial luxury enclave, continues to favor sellers with
luxury homes taking about a month to sell. Still, with the May median price
for luxury at $1.6 million, down from $2.3 million last year, buyers have
opportunities. Properties are selling for approximately
98% of list.
Twice as Nice
A penchant for two main homes is a growing post-pandemic trend.
La Costa sees “a new normal” emerging. “People are adjusting their
schedules to be in the office a few days a week. So, they have two homes
and can live comfortably in two places at the same time. The trend is
particularly apparent in Manhattan, where individuals spend a few days
in the city, and then four days in their country home. That country home
brings them peace and joy,” she adds.
Research from Coldwell Banker shows secondary home
ownership grew significantly during the pandemic. New York has the
highest population of individuals who own secondary homes in other
cities, followed by Silicon Valley, San Francisco, Los Angeles and
Chicago.
The two-home trend also extends across the pond. “As more
people are coming back into the office, many are keeping their country
homes, but are also buying or renting a smaller London base,” shares
Martin Bikhit, co-owner of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices London.
The beat goes on in North Carolina’s mountain getaways as the temps rise in
regions farther south.
Suburbs Rule
From Southern Connecticut to northern Virginia to San
Francisco’s East Bay, suburban locations dominate the story in many
metros. In Westchester County, New York, 2023 charted the highest
first quarter median price on record. Sales were down by 32%. On
Long Island, the lack of inventory continues to damper sales while
demand remains strong.
“The market in New Jersey remains very much in favor for the seller
with very high demand and extremely low inventory. Most homes are still
seeing multiple offers with homes in my market on average selling 10-17%
above their asking price,” shares Frank Isoldi with Coldwell Banker Realty
in Westfield, New Jersey.
Although year-over-year home values are down in metros such as
Austin, Seattle and San Francisco, recent data shows a possible rebound
brewing, particularly in tech hubs.
Among markets to watch, these cities still top the list as real estate
changes going into 2024. The current status could portend big changes in
2024 depending on interest rates and the mindset of the upscale consumer.
Will it once again be a “new normal” or simply an evolution of today?
