The week in Newport Beach
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Newport Beach, read the way an inspector reads a house.
The Newport Beach file →The largest reduction on the desk was 1228 W Oceanfront (Balboa Peninsula (Residential) (BALP)) — down $1,000,000, from $12,999,999 to $11,999,999, listed by Balboa Island Estates.
25 listings changed status: 12 sold, 7 active under contract, 4 pending, 1 back on market. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.
22 homes came to market, asking from $935,000 to $25,950,000.
That is the week, address by address. What any one of these rows means for a house on the same street is the question the file answers next.
