PORTOLA HILLS LIVING by Kelly Turbeville

 Looking for some fun things to do this weekend away from Portola Hills.  We put together a list of events in South Orange County...Not too far from home! Search Available Homes in Portola Hills Are you Irish... Do you celebrate the holiday, cook corn beef, make soda bread, drink green beer? With a bit of Irish heritage we celebrated the holiday.  My Mother made the best Corn Beef, if I say so (IMO). Here is a bit of History about St. Patrick's Day   Enjoy the celebrations but be safe!  

Don't you love after it rains when you see a rainbow... If you have ever driven up the hill to Portola Hills you often see one.   I just got done looking at the numbers for how the real estate market did in Portola Hills in the month and February and it remained very strong, add a bit more equity to homeowners in the community.  While the number of transactions were down from 2023 to today,  5 in 2023 - 3 sales in 2024,  values were up over $1.5 million.  Take a look below at the our Portola Hills February Market Report!  WHAT IS MY PORTOLA HILLS HOME VALUE  Low inventory continues to drive the market, but different from the last few years in Portola Hills, there currently are not any new homes for sale.  That means, home sellers have the opportunity to capture all those price gains for yourself. The Oaks at Portola Hills, has advised they will start building again but those homes would most likely not be available until end of 2024 early 2025 and they will be on the high end. If
