Most Effective Summer Workout Comes To Carlsbad
Carlsbad, CA – The hottest, most effective new workout comes to Carlsbad Village Faire…Xtend Barre is a 55 minute fast paced workout that is designed to sculpt the body proportionately, to strengthen and lengthen to a long and lean dancer’s physique – just what we all want going into summer.
Xtend Barre Carlsbad is located in Carlsbad Village Faire, upstairs across from Vinaka Cafe. Your first class is always free to try it and see what everyone’s talking about. For first time clients, there are two current specials running… one month unlimited for $125 or three months unlimited (to REALLY get that bikini body) for $400.
Come take a class. See what everyone’s talking about. It’s hard, fun, and WORKS! I truly believe that if every girl in Carlsbad knew something could work like this, every girl in Carlsbad would be doing it!

Are You Considering Downsizing?
Carlsbad, Ca – According to the US Census Bureau, for the first time since 1994 – the average home size dropped. Home size actually went down by almost 7%.
There are many possible reasons for smaller homes:
1. Aging boomers: As people are living longer, more Carlsbad couples are selling the big houses in favor of a smaller, single story home with less yard (and maintenance). We are finding that La Costa and Carlsbad single story homes are often on the market for a fraction of the time as a similar square footage two-story. The demand for these homes are increasing dramatically! Also as baby boomers are becoming empty nesters, many are choosing to trade in their big home for an RV or more vacations.
2. Affordability – We often find that Carlsbad real estate buyers stretch to buy the biggest, best house they can afford. In times of economic distress – layoffs, declining property values, decreasing wages, people just can’t afford the big house any more. Factor in increases in San Diego energy and water costs, more homeowners are realizing that maybe they need to revisit their monthly housing expenses.
3. Tight credit markets – Any loan above $417k is still a jumbo loan. Even though homes within the expanded limits are often called high balance conforming loans – these and other jumbo mortgages are harder (and more expensive) to get. As Carlsbad interest rates rise, home buyers will be able to afford less and less.
If you have any questions Carlsbad, Oceanside, Encinitas, and other north county coastal San Diego real estate or mortgage topics, please contact us. We are always happy to answer your questions.

Up to $32k in Incentives at La Costa Oaks Starting At $600k
Would YOU like a luxury home in La Costa Oaks for as low as $600,000? 
Would YOU like up to $32k in incentives through using the Mewborn Team?
This past Saturday was the opening of Rockledge in La Costa Oaks, in Carlsbad, CA. We stopped by Saturday morning just to see the traffic. It wasn’t nearly as busy as the grand opening of Copperwood in La Costa Oaks about a month ago. So, we wondered about the potential immediate success of the development. It seemed to me that given the AMAZING price range for being part of my much loved La Costa Oaks subdivision, that the community would be much busier that morning.
