For the Margarita & Mexican Food Lover: Cinco De Mayo is the perfect excuse to dig into some delicious tacos and pile on the chips and guac. That’s why we’re sharing some of our favorite spots with you to try out this year!

  1. Mexquite Restauant: Located in Folsom, Mexquite Restaurant has a friendly staff, delicious Mexican food, and a festive atmosphere. Their authentic dishes have even helped them secure the award for Style Magazine’s “Favorite Mexican Restaurant” over the past 10 years. You can select from over 100 Tequilas to create your custom margarita – all of which are made with Agave Nectar and fresh-squeezed lime juice. Sip your margarita out on their beautiful outdoor patio and enjoy food and drink specials all day long with a Live DJ from 5 pm to 10 pm.
  2. Mesa Mercado: If you’re a fan of the finer things in life, like freshly muddled margaritas and authentic Mexican cuisine, then you may want to make Mesa Mercado inside the Carmichael Milagro Centre your go-to Cinco De Mayo destination. For a margarita with a little kick to it, try their “Pepino Picante”, with muddled cucumber, chili powder, fresh lime juice, 100% blue agave tequila, and mescal. For a sweeter margarita without a headache, try their “Mango” margarita, with pureed mango and chile, their secret margarita mix, freshly sliced mango, and chile spice topped at the rim. If you want some food to go with that margarita, you can’t go wrong with their marinated skirt steak or roasted pork tacos.
  3. Zócalo: Another favorite hot spot is Zócalo, an upscale restaurant and bar that serves up some delicious handcrafted margaritas, mouth-watering dishes, and a lovely dining atmosphere. We recommend kicking off your meal with their freshly prepared guacamole starter. Because why not? For entrees, try their “Baja Fish Tacos” or their popular “Carnitas” plate. Their robust drink menu features everything from classic margaritas to mojitos and Palomas. Click here to find a location near you.
  4. Centro Cocina Mexicana: With a vibrant setting in the heart of midtown Sacramento and delicious cuisine, it’s no wonder Centro has been in business for over 25 years. From salsas to masa and corn tortillas, slow-cooked meats, and hearty soups, all of their dishes are created from scratch using the freshest ingredients. Centro will be open for lunch at noon on Cinco De Mayo and specials will be available all day. They are even offering a custom menu with a range of ceviche, taco, and combination plate options. Any margarita lovers out there? Centro will be canning their Margarita a la Centro — each can is 12 ounces, which is equivalent to 2 cocktails for only $12. This special is available at their outdoor bar. Make your reservations here.

“Mother’s Day Approved” Brunch Spots: Mark your calendars because Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 8th! And what better way to celebrate mom than with a delicious brunch in her honor? Below are our top four picks.

  1. Rancho Roble Vineyards: This Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity to stop by Rancho Roble Vineyards, the hidden gem of Placer County. This beautiful estate will be hosting a special Mother’s Day event featuring a private tasting on Rancho’s beautiful front patio. A collection of their whites and reds will be poured. You and mom can also enjoy a mini-cheese and fruit board with this lovely tasting. This is a very special experience and has limited tasting spaces. Reserve your seats/time here. If you can’t make it Sunday, stop by on Friday May 6th for “Mom’s Night Out” featuring Bubbly, beautiful weather and a food truck to start your Mother’s Day weekend off right. Purchase your tickets here.
  2. High Hand Nursery & Cafe: Nestled in a beautiful nursery, High-Hand Café is another great spot for a lovely Mother’s Day celebration. Take a walk through their enchanting nursery beforehand, where you will find an amazing collection of plants, trees, shrubs, and perennials from top growers. When it comes to your dining experience, enjoy picture-perfect outdoor seating and a menu that reflects their passion for farm-fresh local ingredients. We recommend making a reservation in advance by calling (916) 660-0117 – extension 3.
  3. Farmhaus: Located in Granite Bay, this charming restaurant serves up fantastic dishes using only the freshest of ingredients and provides a warm and inviting atmosphere for guests. Plus, their outdoor dining area makes for a great brunch spot! Not sure what to order? While all of their dishes are raved about, we recommend trying one that includes their homemade pastrami. Parking can be an issue so try and arrive early to avoid outside crowds. Make reservations ahead of time by calling (916) 772-3276.
  4. Paragary’s in Midtown: Paragary’s is a Midtown Sacramento neighborhood bistro known for delicious seasonal cuisine in a beautiful setting. The garden-like patio is a Sacramento outdoor dining destination, featuring waterfalls, lush plantings, and decades-old olive trees. This Sunday, Paragary’s will be featuring a special Mother’s Day Brunch menu. Check out all of their brunch offerings here and be sure to make a reservation ASAP as spaces will fill up quickly. Click here to reserve your table.

In this month’s market snapshot, we turn to some of the country’s leading economists, who share their insights, predictions, and overall trends for real estate markets across the nation.

Are More Homes Coming to the Market in 2022?:

About 64% of prospective home sellers plan to list their properties by the end of August, according to a Realtor.com report. In even better news, a 43% share of those selling have expected prices below $350,000 — the range most first-time buyers target — and 22% anticipate listing between $350,000 and $500,000.

 


Jeff Tucker, senior economist at Zillow adds:

“An inventory peak in late summer or early fall is the most likely scenario, given how the market returned to normal seasonal trends in 2021. The stock of existing homes on the market is finally starting to refill, as our March data shows total inventory now rising strongly.”

 

Will Housing Inventory Ever Rebound?:

Low inventory keeps the housing market from equilibrium and has given sellers the upper hand in the past few years. However, a silver lining for buyers may sit on the horizon. For-sale housing supply averaged 1.6 million units per month in 2018 and 2019 but fell to around 1 million in 2021, according to Zillow. Based on a March survey conducted by the company, a 74% share of industry experts believe that the market will get back to those pre-pandemic inventory levels by 2024.


Danielle Hale, chief economist at Realtor.com adds:

“We’re going to start to take a step in that balanced direction this year. It’s going to take a couple of years just because the building shortfall is so big and because we still have so many young households, so there’s a lot of demand. The market will eventually get to balance, it’s just not going to happen overnight. We need to have more building. At the end of 2021, the U.S. was 5.8 million single-family homes short. It essentially means we’re five years behind when it comes to construction.”

 

What Role do Rising Interest Rates Play?:

The rise in mortgage rates works both for and against increasing inventory. Some otherwise would-be sellers could decide to stay put if they find the new interest rates to be unfavorable. Although, the higher costs to buy should lower demand and reduce the market competition.

Daryl Fairweather, chief economist at Redfin adds:

“The higher interest rates will lead to a lock-in effect for homeowners, so they may not list. And it also might reduce demand from home buyers, especially for people really sensitive to prices. But the market should slow down and that means homes will sit for-sale longer and more inventory will just accumulate because of that. Similar to previous years, we’ll see inventory probably start to grow around the third quarter.”

 

What Advice Do Economists Give to Buyers in 2022?:

Trying to buy a house right now can be challenging for many buyers because of increased interest rates coupled with a lack of inventory. However, it’s important to stay on top of your local housing market and speak with your Realtor about what changes they are seeing.

Danielle Hale, chief economist at Realtor.com adds:

“Higher costs are going to make home purchasing more challenging. Buyers are going to have to get creative, maybe look further out into the suburbs, or maybe consider less expensive metros than they might have before. Most buyers tend to try to complete their home purchases in the summer, with August as the end of that bulk moving season. So the best time for buyers is normally in the fall because sellers who list then usually are a little more willing to negotiate. But I wouldn’t necessarily put home search plans on pause. My advice is when you find a home that fits your checklist and is in your budget, put an offer in.”

Wondering how the Sacramento housing market is shaping up for spring? According to The Sacramento Association of Realtors “March ended with 1,366 sales, a 26.2% increase from February (1,082). Compared to one year ago (1,292), the current figure is up 5.7%. The median sales price increased 3% from $540,000 to $556,000. This figure is up 15.6% from March 2021 ($481,000). The Active Listing Inventory increased 18% from February to March, from 890 units to 1,050 units. Compared with March 2021 (918), inventory is up 14.4%. The Months of Inventory remains .8 Months. This figure represents the amount of time (in months) it would take for the current rate of sales to deplete the total active listing inventory. The Median DOM (days on market) remained at 7 and the Average DOM decreased from 17 to 15. “Days on market” represents the days between the initial listing of the home as “active” and the day it goes “pending.” Of the 1,366 sales this month, 89.2% (1,218) were on the market for 30 days or less and 95.5% (1,304) were on the market for 60 days or less.”

So what does this mean? For one, while the market is still very competitive, the active listing inventory is increasing, which will steadily create more opportunities for buyers. And as for sellers, while mortgage rates are climbing, there is still a great demand for houses in the Sacramento market, which is reflected in the steady rise of sales prices.

Wondering how the conflict in Ukraine may affect the U.S. housing market? According to Housing Wire, it may lead to lower mortgage rates in the short term. “While mortgage rates trended upward in 2022, one unintended side effect of global uncertainty is that it often results in downward pressure on mortgage rates,” said Odeta Kushi, deputy chief economist of title insurance firm First American. “The 10-year Treasury yield is down today, likely in response to the worsening Russia-Ukraine conflict, and mortgage rates may follow suit.” Read the full article here.

They will also have bar seating and standing room that is first come first serve or you can reserve a booth to make sure you get the best seat in the house! Reserved seating begins one hour before kick-off. Reserve your table here.

Republic Bar & Grill: Located right across from the Memorial Auditorium, Republic Bar & Grill is another great spot to have a beer (or two), and watch the big game. They have 12 taps of local craft beers, a full cocktail bar, and 16 HD TVs — not to mention an American-inspired menu with mouth-watering sliders, sandwiches, and wings.

Henry’s Lounge: You can’t go wrong by paying a visit to Henry’s lounge, located in Midtown Sacramento. This full-service bar and grill will be serving brunch all morning starting at 9 am. There is no cover fee but be sure to grab a seat early because it’s first come first serve. Try their sports-themed specialties such as their Corner Kick margarita while you’re watching the game!

Field House Sports Pub: With over 28 taps of rotating craft local and favorite beers, 17 HD TVs, an HD projector, and a full menu featuring classic takes on bar food, this sports pub is an ideal place for your Super Bowl hangout. Seating is first come first serve.

Sauced BBQ & Spirits: Last but certainly not least, check out Sauced BBQ & Spirits for some good old-fashioned, authentic BBQ with classics including sliced brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and chicken. Oh, and don’t forget the sweet honey cornbread, mac n’ cheese, and crispy fries. With plenty of flat screens and a fun and social environment just across the street from the Golden 1 Center, you won’t be disappointed.

This year Valentine’s Day happens to roll around on a Monday. If you’re opting to celebrate this holiday in the comfort of your own home with your favorite ladies or that special someone, then we’ve got you covered with our favorite appetizers, mains, and desserts…because the key to anyone’s heart is food right?

Fall in Love with These Appetizers:

  • Baked Brie: Nothing says “will you brie mine?” more than this heart-shaped honey hazelnut baked brie. This flaky puff pastry is crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. Need we say more?
  • Valentine’s Snack Board: Take things to the next level with this adorable Valentine’s Day snack board. It’s loaded with all of the good stuff like strawberries, raspberries, and chocolate-covered pretzels.
  • Honey Champagne Fondue: This special champagne fondue owes its wonderful flavor to the Swiss cheese and honey, which adds a hint of sweetness. The best part? It clings well to any kind of dipper. Pair with toasted French bread, asparagus, apple slices, or cooked shrimp.
  • Sweet & Spicy Jalapeño Stuffers: There’s no faster way to get a party started than with these bacon jalapeno poppers. Make them ahead and bake just before serving!

Heat Things Up With These Beloved Mains:

  • Sushi Stacks: You don’t have to be a sushi pro to make these homemade sushi stacks, which are packed with avocado, shrimp, cucumbers, and rice, and drizzled with spicy mayo. Not only are they delicious, but they’re also a great way to impress your “soy-mate”.
  • Heart-Shaped Pizza: Celebrate love with these adorable heart-shaped pizzas. This recipe takes a few shortcuts with store-bought pizza dough and sauce but it’s safe to say that your loved ones will still see this pizza as a labor of love.
  • Lady & The Tramp Spaghetti & Meatballs: Nothing screams “that’s amore” like homemade pasta! Remember that famous spaghetti scene from Lady and the Tramp? We found the perfect copycat recipe. You can thank us later as your special someone gazes at you adoringly while you share this delicious plate of spaghetti and meatballs.

All You Need is Love (And a Cocktail or Two):

We’re head over heels for these Valentine’s Day cocktails and drinks. Each one features shades of pink, red, or chocolate!

  • Raspberry Martini: This drink is stunning and full of bright berry flavor. The sweet, tart, lightly floral flavor of raspberry is beautifully pure thanks to homemade raspberry syrup.
  • Chocolate Red Hot Martini: This creamy chocolate martini has a hint of cinnamon that adds a kick and helps this drink stand out as a top Valentine’s drink contender.
  • Cosmopolitan: This fun and flirty cocktail is all you need this Valentine’s Day. It’s also lower in calories for those who want to indulge without feeling guilty.
  • Blood Orange Margarita: Upgrade your Galentine’s night with these delicious blood orange margaritas served over the rocks.
  • Pomegranate Gin Fizz: Not only is this drink stunning but it’s equally delicious! Garnish with pomegranate seeds.
  • Pink “Not Champange” Mocktail: This festive mocktail will add a little spark to any occasion.

Date Night Worthy Desserts:

  • Chocolate Covered Strawberries: It’s not hard to fall in love with these simple yet gorgeous Valentine’s-inspired chocolate-covered strawberries.
  • Candy Heart Bark: How adorable are these pieces of candy heart bark? Send a message to your friends or loved ones using your favorite conversation heart candies.
  • Peanut Butter Explosion Cake: As its name suggests, these decadent molten cakes are filled to the brim with a creamy peanut butter center and can be made in the air fryer.
  • Sugar Cookies: Make your Valentine’s Day a little sweeter with these heart-shaped sugar cookies topped with cream cheese frosting.
  • Valentine’s Cheesecake: Nothing says I love you like this creamy, fruity, and chocolatey cheesecake.
