But that’s not all—for every coffee we give out during the event, we’ll be making a monetary donation to the Anne Arundel County SPCA.

With a 98% life-saving rate since 2014, the SPCA’s efforts to save animals and find them loving homes is nothing short of remarkable. This event is our way of supporting their work and helping animals in need, one cup of coffee at a time. A Raffle You Won’t Want to Miss! In addition to free coffee and giving back, we’re holding an exciting raffle during the event! You’ll have the chance to win a curated basket from the local Annapolis boutique, Sea Dog Pet Boutique, and gift cards to Oscar’s Coffee. It’s a great way to show our appreciation for you and celebrate the businesses that make our community so special.

Unveiling the 2024 Mid-Year Ultra-Luxury Real Estate Report: Insights and Trends
Unveiling the 2024 Mid-Year Ultra-Luxury Real Estate Report: Insights and Trends The ultra-luxury real estate market in the United States continues to defy expectations, with the first half of 2024 showcasing remarkable strength and resilience. In an era where economic uncertainty often drives caution, high-net-worth individuals are doubling down on real estate as their investment of choice. The numbers speak for themselves: a staggering 838 homes sold publicly at $10 million-plus, culminating in an impressive $14.66 billion in sales volume. This not only surpasses the figures from H1 2023 but also underscores the enduring appeal of prime real estate as a safe and tangible asset. Our 2024 Mid-Year Ultra-Luxury Report, available exclusively at luxuryatcompass.com, delves into four years' worth of high-end sales data across 80 top U.S. markets. From the sprawling estates of Greater Los Angeles to the sophisticated townhomes of Manhattan, the luxury market continues to set new benchmarks. Palm Beach County and Miami-Dade stand out as perennial favorites, attracting a global clientele eager to secure their piece of paradise. Meanwhile, emerging markets such as Greater Nashville and Central New Jersey are gaining traction, offering unique opportunities for savvy buyers and investors. Market Leaders and Emerging Stars Greater Los Angeles, Manhattan, Palm Beach County, and Miami-Dade continue to lead the charge, each market with its own unique allure. These areas attract a diverse array of buyers—from tech moguls to international elites—who value the combination of location, lifestyle, and exclusivity these regions offer. Notably, many of these transactions are all-cash deals, a strategic move by buyers looking to sidestep the burden of high mortgage rates. But it's not just the established markets that are making waves. The rise of Greater Nashville and Central New Jersey as emerging ultra-luxury hubs reflects a broader trend of affluent buyers seeking new opportunities beyond traditional locales. These markets offer a blend of cultural vibrancy, strategic location, and investment potential, making them increasingly attractive to the ultra-wealthy. The Annapolis Appeal: Insights from Jen Holden One of the standout regions in the Mid-Atlantic, Annapolis continues to capture the attention of luxury buyers. Jen Holden, a luxury realtor agent expert for the Central Maryland market, offers a keen insight into this trend. She was recently quoted in our Mid-Year Ultra-Luxury Report, noting the unique appeal of Annapolis: "Annapolis continues to attract luxury buyers seeking a waterfront lifestyle within an hour of Washington, D.C. Demand for turnkey city residences in vibrant, convenient neighborhoods remains strong, while estate-style properties in surrounding areas maintain a steady supply. Limited availability of land for new construction enhances the appeal of renovations embracing timeless coastal style and offering amenities like swimming pools and private piers. With approximately six to nine months of inventory, the Annapolis market remains healthy and balanced, with steady volume relevant to recent years." Jen’s expertise highlights a crucial point: the luxury market in Annapolis is not only thriving but also evolving. The scarcity of land for new development is driving interest in properties that combine classic coastal charm with modern amenities, making them highly sought after by discerning buyers. The Compass Advantage In a market defined by competition and exclusivity, partnering with a trusted Compass agent is more important than ever. Our agents leverage the power of Compass Private Exclusives to discreetly gauge market interest, offering clients access to some of the most coveted properties before they even hit the public market. This level of insight and access can make all the difference in securing a prime property in today’s competitive landscape. As we continue to lead the industry, Compass invites you to explore the full 2024 Mid-Year Ultra-Luxury Report. Whether you’re a buyer, seller, or simply an enthusiast of the luxury market, our report offers unparalleled insights into the trends that are shaping the future of real estate.
