Trustee President Chuck Lande and Board Vice President Rhys Williams Tennis Clubhouse & Membership Manager Monica Finley, Ticketing Coordinator Jenna Friesen, General Manager David Sigman, and Director of Operations Shayna Cogan

S.B. Polo and Racquet Club Hosts Clubhouse Reopening Mixer

O

n June 19, the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club welcomed members to a Reopening Mixer celebrating its newly remodeled Clubhouse, which is nestled among the eight championship tennis courts, swimming pool, and Fitness Center on a scenic hill atop the polo fields. Members enjoyed cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, Big Joes Tacos’ creations, and the camaraderie of this friendly and casual group.

During a ribbon-cutting ceremony presided over by Trustee President Chuck Lande and Board VP Rhys Williams, General Manager David Sigman lauded member Bruce Giffin for his vision years ago to create the Tennis Capital Improvement Fund that paid for the $500,000 project and Director of Operations Shayna Cogan for her vision and execution of the remodel.

When COVID shut down the club in March 2020, management saw an opportunity for the remodel.

According to Cogan, they wanted to create a casual, comfortable space for members to come with their families — a place that members would view as an extension of their home. The open design allows the Clubhouse to be connected to the outside, where most of the club’s activities occur. A new Clubhouse market provides refreshments.

The club was allowed to reopen tennis, swimming, and fitness in mid-April 2020 with a new reservation system and strict protocols. With tennis being a sport where one can socially distance, COVID caused an increase in usage. Members made greater use of the pool and Fitness Center, as well. Conveniently, the Fitness Center is a tent with panels opening to the outside, allowing members to have ventilation for COVID requirements and to enjoy the views while working out.

General Manager David Sigman emphasized the importance of the health and wellness of its members during COVID, which meant adherence to strict protocols while maintaining exercise opportunities, including allowing members to walk on the three polo fields, which are each the size of nine football fields.

The polo season opened in mid-May 2020, just two weeks later than usual, and ran the full season to October, but under strict protocols and very limited atten-

dance. The Polo Clubhouse became a COVID testing center, with teams and club staff tested weekly — more than 1,000 tests were administered — and there were no reported cases all season. Spectators were limited to those associated with the teams, club staff, and club boardmembers.

Polo Manager Melanja Jones related how “people rallied around the season, not only for the sake of the teams and players, but also for the grooms, farriers, feed stores, veterinarians, grounds crew, and hardworking support staff who are the pillars of our polo community.” As in prior years, the United States Polo Association (USPA) Global Polo Network live streamed the top games to an international audience, with greatly increased viewership.

The 2021 season kicked off in May, and there will be matches every weekend through early October, except this weekend and Labor Day weekend. With COVID restrictions lifted, the public again is encouraged to attend.

Sunday is the big event each week, but according to Sigman, Friday Happy Hours have been insanely popular this year. These matches, typically semi-finals, start at 4 p.m. and are free and open to the public (though only members can reserve Terrace spots).

The Polo Academy had a brief shutdown in March 2020 but otherwise has been operating and has had record participation.

In May, the Fieldside Grill opened, serving coastal California cuisine on a terrace overlooking the main polo field. The new restaurant, unlike the old Polo Grill, isn’t just for polo matches — it is open Wednesday through Saturday for lunch and dinner. The Polo Boutique is open on Sunday, and the Tennis Shop is open seven days a week.

The club has about 650 members and is accepting new members of all types — tennis, swim and fitness, polo, and social. Member Sandy Robertson related how a friend had encouraged her to join the club, referring to the members as the nicest group of people you will find anywhere. Robertson joined and completely agrees with her friend’s assessment. For more info, go to sbpolo.com.

ruth be told, I am not originally from here. Like so many, I fell in love with the temperate climate, active lifestyle, and relatively easy way of living and never left. It’s been more than 20 years since I moved to Santa Barbara, and my love affair is still strong — with one exception: the price of real estate. Or, to be exact, the size of home which I can afford.

A quick phone call with my parTHE STYLE SPECIALIST ents and you’ll know that I could move back to my hometown and easily purchase an expansive home with a large yard and the latest upgrades, conveniently located next to my favorite Tex-Mex restaurant.

For many of us, choosing to live here means sacrificing the size of home in which we live for the climate, ocean, and lifestyle we love. Over the years, I have come to embrace smaller

by Christine S. Cowles spaces and offer these tips to make rooms feel as large as possible.

Select furniture that fits the space. I’m just going to

say it: Your L-shaped sofa with a chaise is likely too large

COURTESY

Embracing Small Living Spaces

for the cottage or bungalow in which you live. Selecting furniture that is appropriately sized to the room is critical in making a room feel as large as possible. Try selecting a standard sofa instead of an L-shaped one and increase conversation areas by adding some low-profile swivel chairs.

Use a monochromatic color scheme. Contrasting colors

can visually break up a room, making it appear smaller.

By selecting furniture pieces that are similar in color, your eye sees one large color block, helping to create the illusion of a larger room.

Purchase a bed with drawers. Having another place to

store linens and clothing is great, but eliminating the need for a dresser altogether is even better. Too much clothing?

Time to reread Marie Kondo!

Place your bed against the wall. I’m rarely in favor of

placing any piece of furniture against a wall, but in small spaces, it may be necessary. Rather than positioning your bed in the middle of the room, move it against a wall to free up precious space. Best of all, this trick is free!

Add an oversized mirror. Mirrors generally increase the

visual size of a room, helping to bounce light and create a more open feeling. Leaning an oversized floor mirror against the wall is a great way to increase the sense of space in a room.

Opt for cabinets instead of a bookcase. There is nothing

that makes a small space feel more cramped than being able to

see every item in the room, so swap out a bookcase with open shelving for a cabinet or sideboard with doors. Keeping your collection of cookbooks, your Wi-Fi router, and your home office printer organized behind doors helps hide smaller items, allowing your eye to move freely across the room.

Stretch with stripes. A narrow living room may be short

on space, but a quick fix to make it feel larger is simple: Add a striped area rug. The longer the area rug, the more spacious your living room will feel.

Although I can’t add actual square footage to your living spaces, I hope these tips help you love wherever you call home. And remember, smaller rooms means less to clean!

Will I Be Actively or Passively Removed?

Q: Marsha, I am currently under contract to sell my

house. The buyer had certain contingencies for items such as a home inspection and getting her loan. The time for her to remove these contingencies has come and gone. I thought our contract would automatically cancel, but my Realtor tells me we have to nudge her to remove contingencies. Can you explain what is going on here?

A: Great question! As you know, contingencies are con-

should note that banks still use the passive form of removal when selling their foreclosure inventory.)

Today’s RPA has a paragraph in it called “Notice to buyer or seller to perform.” It’s called NBP for buyers.

After the NBP is delivered, the buyer usually has two days to release the contingency, or the contract may be canceled by the seller.

A notice to perform is not adversarial. It is politely keeping everyone on schedule. Agents often give an NBP to the buyers when significant contingency release periods are upcoming. This keeps the transaction moving and reveals any significant objections the buyers may have.

Ask your agent to give your buyers an NBP right now.

Any delay keeps your house sale in limbo.

ditions of the purchase contract that must be met and fulfilled during a home purchase. The buyer’s contingencies are typically obtaining a loan, having the property appraised for the purchase price, and a physical inspection of the property. However, there can be any number of contingencies. The buyer, for example, may have a contingency that states they must sell their current house in order to purchase the new one.

Q&A with Sellers may also have continMarsha Gray gencies. If the seller wants to do a 1031 exchange on a rental property, he’ll want a contingency that the buyer will cooperate with his exchange. Or the seller may make the sale contingent on him finding a replacement home.

There are default timeframes for each contingency in the Residential Purchase Agreement (RPA). They are usually 17 days for an appraisal and home inspection and 21 days for loan approval. The seller will have seven days in which to provide disclosures.

As with everything in real estate, these timeframes are negotiable. In today’s market, a buyer may shorten the timeframes to make the offer more attractive.

So what if you are under contract and your buyer’s contingency release date comes and goes? Your agent is correct that the contract does not automatically cancel. Today’s RPA has active contingency removals. That means the buyer must actively sign off on each particular contingency. The contingency removal date can come and go, and without the buyer’s active release, the contract is still alive with that contingency just hanging out there.

Several decades ago, the California RPA had passive removal for all contingencies. That meant if the buyer hadn’t removed a particular contingency by the contract date, it was deemed automatically accepted. This created irate buyers when negligent agents weren’t on top of the contract’s timeframes. The buyers had issues with the house’s physical condition, but oops, their agent wasn’t time-compliant and the buyers just passively approved the physical inspection. The RPA was changed to require active removal. (Buyers of bank-owned foreclosures
