Distinct coastal communities
Newport Beach includes the Balboa Peninsula and Balboa Island, Lido Isle and the harbor, Corona del Mar’s village streets and beaches, and the gated hillside communities of Newport Coast, with Fashion Island at the center of the city.
What makes coastal transactions different
Coastal homes can involve flood-zone and insurance questions, Coastal Commission rules for remodels, older-home disclosures and, on the water, dock and tideland considerations. Buyers and sellers benefit from tackling these early.
Selling at the coast
Higher price points mean commission structure matters even more. On a $3,000,000 sale, each 0.5% of listing fee is $15,000. Pyramont offers listing commission options below 1% for eligible properties, with presentation that matches the market.
Frequently asked questions
Do coastal homes in Newport Beach need flood insurance?
It depends on the property’s flood zone and your lender’s requirements. Check the FEMA flood map and get insurance quotes early in escrow.
