The Marin market feels like it has found its footing again. After a steady and healthy 2025, activity is already building as we head into spring, with buyers showing up early and inventory expected to rise in the coming months. Here is what we are seeing on the ground, what the data is telling us, and what it means if you are thinking about buying or selling this spring.

Word on the street is that there’s some seriously good stuff coming to Marin. From Tartine finally landing in Strawberry Village to thoughtful new restaurants, bakeries, and neighborhood hangouts across Mill Valley, San Anselmo, San Rafael, and Sausalito, this is a look at the openings actually worth knowing about.

We finally experienced Fjord Floating Sauna in Sausalito, and it lived up to the hype. Think 190-degree heat, icy Bay plunges, spa-level details, and sweeping views from Mount Tam to Tiburon. Reservations sell out fast, but if you snag one, expect a reset that feels equal parts wellness ritual, design moment, and Marin-only magic.

A reflection on a year of thoughtful growth, trusted relationships, and finding home in Marin.
