It may be “Crosby Weather” (cold & rainy) this year, but the AT&T Pro Am Golf Tournament is a totally new format. Gone are the crazy days of Bill Murray’s antics and celebrity players that we could all ogle at, we’re into some serious golf now. The PGA has been under a lot of pressure lately to make their tournaments more attractive to pro golfers to prevent more exodus to LIV – but I’m not going to get into that story. Suffice it to say, the PGA has turned our “Crosby Clambake” into a Signature event with a $20 million dollar purse with the winner taking $5 million home. Not saying this is good or bad – it’s just different. Our local charities will still be the winner with hopes of topping the $18 million that went to local non-profits last year.
Carmel Realty Company will be there tomorrow entertaining some of our clients at a special VIP party at one of our luxury listings on the 12th hole of Pebble Beach Golf Links. Take a look at last year’s event in this Short Video .

First a glance back with our 2023 Annual Market Report
Although our Monterey Peninsula was bustling this holiday season, the 4th quarter as a whole, was quieter. A realtor’s personal business is not always reflective of the general market and I was happy to be able to represent clients in the 4th quarter who were completing the first step to their real estate goals and dreams – several who were relocating to the Monterey Peninsula and another selling their home here to begin their own “next chapter” with new adventures in new places. My phone has begun to ring with clients asking questions about the real estate market and their thoughts of buying or selling in this new year. If you have similar goals, please call me!
Be sure to read our 2023 Annual Report above. You’ll notice that every city on the Peninsula experienced different activity. Some remained very strong and others were down a bit. Factors affecting the market were higher interest rates, macro-economic uncertainty, geopolitical concerns, and other distractions.
This is a very easy to read guide (compared to many I have seen) so if you have an interest in real estate on the Monterey Peninsula – this is a must read.
Future Outlook For Us in 2024?
The demand in our market remains high. After all, who wouldn’t want to live in this beautiful and amazing place. The good news is that interest rates are coming down and this should free up buyers and sellers to eagerly pursue their real estate goals which will provide more inventory for buyers and replacement homes for sellers.
Expert local insight can make or break a deal and can add significant value when demand, product and pricing is changing rapidly. Please reach out to me to discuss your goals or if you have friends or associates that need real estate help.
