Moving to a new area can be a bit intimidating. Not knowing what it will be like, not knowing anyone and not knowing a Realtor you can trust can add more anxiety than needed. My name is Mary Campbell and I am a Newport Beach Realtor. I moved here permanently when my husband and I got married in 1984 but I spent a lot of time here as a kid and while dating my husband. It was love at first sight with Newport Beach. As a little girl living in Los Angeles and coming to Newport on the weekends, I always dreamt of living in Newport Beach! I moved here and my love for the area, the weather and the ocean has kept me here and I am grateful to have raised my three children in Newport Beach.                         Customer service has always been the major factor in my career. Working for Nordstr... 09/26/2009

Once again Newport Harbor beats Corona Del Mar High School in the Battle of the Bays. The ending score was 37-7. This is the 11th time in the past 10 years that Newport Harbor has won. This year the Sailors defense is exceptional, and I need to mention that's what my baby boy plays. Last nights game was almost a sell out, and it was held at Orange Coast College. The crowd was excited and there was lots of support in the stands. The kids and parents always look forward to this game.  Take a look at a few of the pictures. The Abramo Family above cheering on Gabe Gomez #11. Right before each game starts the mothers of the varsity players let go balloons in the sky. This was last night! The community gets involved!

Why Do I Love Living in Coastal Orange County? Pigs, Kids and the Beach! It was another beautiful day in Coast Orange County today, so we decided to run off to the beach.   It's always great to go down to the River Jetty at the mouth of the Santa Ana River with the kids.   The water tends to be warmer, and sometimes, if we're lucky, there are large puddles in which the children can play.   Today, there was a pet pig.  I've seen many people bring their dogs down to the jetty, but this was the first day I've ever seen a pet pig there.   My sons were pretty uninterested in the pig and far more interested in getting back in the water.   Do you want to take advantage of having a Coastal Orange County home?  Interested in first time home buyer programs for Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley... 09/20/2009

Living in the Dover Shores neighborhood for the past 27 years has made me aware of how fortunate I am. Dover Shores is a neighborhood built in the 1950's-1960's. The beauty of it, is that although there are many original residents, a large portion of the homes have been updated. Dover Shores is an ecletic neighborhood. I have seen prices in the $200,000's in the 1980's shoot to $1,000,000 in 2005. Presently you will find homes in the $800,000's all the way to $3,000,000.
