Carmel-by-the-Sea, California

An association of the people who own the buildings in our town.

We are owners of commercial and income-producing property across Monterey County, with our programming and advocacy focused on Carmel-by-the-Sea. Every one of us has years, and often generations, invested in these blocks. We meet, we keep each other informed, and we speak together when the rules change.

Membership

Four things, and that's the whole of it.

The newsletter

Six issues a year, one every two months, plus a special edition when something can't wait. What changed at City Hall, what's leasing, what's coming. Written for owners, not for a mailing list.

Gatherings you'll actually attend

Two lunches and two breakfasts a year, plus the annual meeting. Same faces, over and over, until you know them. We'll add more as we grow.

A voice on local rules

When building regulations and permitting come up for review, owners are in the room together rather than one at a time.

The network

Members, and the title people, brokers, lenders and contractors who work on our buildings. A phone number for most problems.

One every two months, plus a special edition when something can't wait. Every issue carries Regulatory & Legal Watch: what changed, what it means, and when it takes effect.
