Three businesses have joined the tenant lineup at MidTown Marketplace. The Publix-anchored center is under construction at Babcock Ranch in Punta Gorda, Florida. Team John Garuti of eXp Realty runs Babcock Ranch New Homes, a builder-neutral resource for buyers. The team says everyday services inside the town line change how buyers should compare Babcock Ranch homes for sale, both by neighborhood and by lot.
Punta Gorda, Florida, United States, 28th Aug 2026 – Three new businesses are coming to MidTown Marketplace at Babcock Ranch. The Publix-anchored center is under construction now. The tenant mix says more about the town’s maturity than another restaurant would.
Kluck-Kluck Chicken is joining the lineup. The Illinois-based restaurant serves Tennessee hot chicken, Buffalo mac and cheese, and crispy chicken sandwiches. It built its name on a food truck and on fresh, never-frozen chicken.
Martinizing Dry Cleaners is also coming. The company handles dry cleaning, wash-dry-fold service, pickup and delivery, alterations, shoe repair, and wedding gown preservation.
Venetian Nail Spa will open next door to Martinizing. It will offer manicures and pedicures.
All three join Pi MidTown among the businesses already announced for the marketplace.
Team John Garuti of eXp Realty runs Babcock Ranch New Homes, a builder-neutral resource for new construction buyers. John Garuti III says the dry cleaner is the tell.
“Everybody gets excited about restaurants. A restaurant is a night out,” Garuti said. “A dry cleaner and a nail salon are a Tuesday. That is what decides whether a town works day to day. It is also what people forget to ask about while they stand in a model home looking at quartz counters.”
Why this changes the neighborhood math
Babcock Ranch covers 24 neighborhoods and 10 builders. Fourteen of those neighborhoods are selling new construction today.
Until recently the town had one commercial center. Founder’s Square anchored everything. A few neighborhoods sat within walking distance of it. Most did not.
B Street and MidTown Marketplace change that map. The town is adding two more centers of gravity. Neighborhoods that once looked far from everything may not look that way for long.
“Distance to Founder’s Square, B Street, and MidTown is a real line item now,” Garuti said. “No builder puts it in a brochure. You find out what it was worth on the day you sell.”
The gap shows up at the lot level too. Two buyers can pick the same floor plan in the same community. One lot connects easily to the trail network and the golf cart routes. The other does not.
More than 6,000 homes have sold at Babcock Ranch to date. That volume gives the town a deep resale market.
Vertical construction is also shaping B Street. The walkable plaza will combine retail, restaurants, entertainment, offices, and residences. Its first tenant has already opened.
Built around the landscape, not on top of it
Babcock Ranch treats greenspace as infrastructure. The town maintains roughly 500 acres of common space. It requires native species for 75 percent of all foliage. Smart irrigation management cuts water use, fertilizer, and pesticides.
The same logic drives the town’s 870-acre solar array. That array became the first utility-scale field to power an entire American town. Babcock Ranch kept its power through Hurricane Ian’s Category 4 landfall. Much of Southwest Florida went dark.
Real numbers before the sales center
Babcock Ranch New Homes publishes real-time pricing for all 24 neighborhoods, 10 builders, and 166 floor plans. Those numbers include lot premiums, incentives, mandatory upgrades, HOA dues, and CDD assessments. Most buyers never see the full figure until they sit down to sign. The team also runs a Babcock Ranch HOA and CDD calculator covering every community in town.

New annual research initiative examines Claremont home prices, sales activity, marketing times and the neighborhood-level differences shaping the city’s housing market.
Claremont, CA, United States, 28th Aug 2026 —Mr. Claremont Real Estate has announced the release of the inaugural 2026 State of Claremont Real Estate Report, a comprehensive digital research initiative examining the housing market, neighborhoods, properties and homeownership trends shaping Claremont, California. Created by Anthony Grynchal, California DRE #01873626, known locally as “Mr. Claremont,” the initiative brings together local housing data, neighborhood-level information, real estate analysis, architectural and housing characteristics, homeowner education and Grynchal’s more than three decades of personal familiarity with the Claremont community. Published through MrClaremont.com, the initiative is designed to become an annually updated reference point for homeowners, buyers, sellers, investors, relocating families and others seeking detailed information about Claremont real estate.
“Claremont isn’t one uniform housing market,” Grynchal said. “A home in the Village can have very different characteristics from a property in Claraboya, North Claremont or another part of the city. Architecture, lot size, location, condition, views and neighborhood characteristics all matter. The purpose of this report is to document those differences and place the larger Claremont market into context.”
A CLAREMONT MARKET DEFINED BY RESILIENT VALUES AND SELECTIVE BUYERS
The 2026 State of Claremont Real Estate Report identifies a market in which home values remained substantial, but individual results increasingly depended on property type, location, condition and initial pricing. According to July 2026 InfoSparks data sourced from California Regional Multiple Listing Service, Claremont recorded a median sale price of $1,116,444, an average of 28 days on market, 3.4 months of available housing supply and 85 active listings. The median sale price was 4.3% lower than one year earlier, illustrating a market that remained valuable but became more balanced and price-sensitive.
A separate review of MLS closed-sales data for July 2026 found:
28 residential properties closed escrow.
The average sale price was $1,114,607.
The lowest recorded sale was $560,000, and the highest was $1,580,000.
Properties spent an average of 28.5 days on the market.
Ten properties sold above asking price, six sold at asking price, and 12 sold below asking price.
Together, these figures show that approximately 57% of July transactions closed at or above the asking price, while approximately 43% sold below asking. The results demonstrate that buyer demand remained active, but sellers could no longer assume every property would attract offers above its asking price.
The wide range between July’s lowest and highest sales also reinforces one of the report’s central conclusions: Claremont is not a single, uniform housing market. Neighborhood, architecture, lot size, condition, property type, and location can materially influence value and buyer demand. Data sources: InfoSparks/California Regional Multiple Listing Service July 2026 market statistics and MLS closed-sales data for Claremont, California. Figures include multiple residential property types and are not property-specific appraisals.
A LANDMARK CLAREMONT PRICE-PER-SQUARE-FOOT RESULT
The report also documents the August 2025 sale of 705 Pomello Drive, a distinctive 2.83-acre North Claremont property listed by Anthony Grynchal of Mr. Claremont Real Estate. MLS-syndicated records show that the property, MLS identification number CV25045344MR, sold for $3,500,001. Based on its reported 2,279 square feet of living area, the transaction equaled approximately $1,535.76 per square foot.
The result illustrates why price-per-square-foot statistics require context. In addition to its existing structures, 705 Pomello Drive offered substantial acreage and potential future development value, distinguishing it from a conventional residential sale. The transaction represents a landmark Claremont price-per-square-foot result and demonstrates why market statistics should be interpreted alongside the characteristics, location, and potential of the individual property.
DOCUMENTING CLAREMONT NEIGHBORHOOD BY NEIGHBORHOOD
A central component of the initiative is an expanding neighborhood-by-neighborhood documentation project. MrClaremont.com is developing detailed resources covering communities and locally recognized areas throughout Claremont, including Claremont Village, Claraboya and Claraboya Heights, North Claremont, Padua Hills, Towne Ranch, Blaisdell Ranch, La Puerta, Stone Canyon Preserve, College Park, Arbol Verde and other areas throughout the city.
These resources examine housing characteristics, neighborhood history, architecture, property types, local amenities and real estate considerations. Individual neighborhood hubs connect readers with more detailed supporting information. The approach reflects Grynchal’s belief that understanding Claremont real estate requires looking below the citywide level. “Citywide statistics can show what is happening broadly, but they do not always explain why two Claremont properties can perform very differently in the marketplace,” Grynchal said. “Neighborhood, architecture, lot size, location, condition and the individual property’s characteristics can all influence demand and value.”
PRESERVING CLAREMONT’S HOUSING AND ARCHITECTURAL STORY
The initiative also documents the diversity of Claremont’s housing stock. The city contains homes from different periods and architectural traditions, ranging from historic residences and established neighborhoods to Mid-Century Modern properties, custom homes, hillside residences, luxury estates, condominiums and townhomes.
Rather than treating these properties as interchangeable, the project connects housing and architectural information with neighborhood context and broader market education. The information is being incorporated into an expanding digital library intended to preserve useful local housing knowledge while helping current and future residents better understand the community. SUPPORTING THE FULL
HOMEOWNERSHIP LIFECYCLE
The State of Claremont Real Estate initiative extends beyond market statistics. Supporting resources at MrClaremont.com address the broader lifecycle of local homeownership, including:
Discovering Claremont and its neighborhoods
Buying a home and relocating to the community
Understanding local home values
Property ownership and improvements
Accessory dwelling units and property considerations
Preparing and selling a home
Luxury and distinctive properties
Downsizing
Probate and trust real estate
Inherited properties
Frequently asked questions from Claremont homeowners and buyers
The objective is to organize these subjects into a connected local knowledge resource rather than treating individual consumer questions in isolation.
LOCAL KNOWLEDGE IN A CHANGING INFORMATION ENVIRONMENT
The report arrives during a significant change in the way consumers discover real estate information. Traditional web search now exists alongside maps, voice assistants, conversational platforms and AI-powered search experiences capable of responding to increasingly detailed questions.
Grynchal believes this evolution increases the importance of accurate, well-organized and locally grounded information. “The technology people use to find answers will continue to change, but trust still begins with the quality of the underlying information,” Grynchal said. “Our mission is not simply to publish more content. It is to document Claremont in enough depth that homeowners, buyers and future residents can find genuinely useful information about the community and its real estate.” The digital format allows the State of Claremont Real Estate initiative to connect broad market analysis with neighborhood pages, housing resources, homeowner education, frequently asked questions and related local research.
MORE THAN THREE DECADES IN CLAREMONT
Grynchal has lived in Claremont for more than 33 years and has worked in real estate since 2008. He entered the profession during the housing downturn and built his business around direct community involvement, neighborhood familiarity, homeowner education, and local market knowledge. Today, he operates under the Mr. Claremont brand as a real estate professional with eXp Realty. Grynchal is also the founder of the Designated Local Expert™ Network and founder and CEO of MetaDLE™ Technologies, reflecting his broader work involving hyperlocal expertise, digital information and emerging methods of online discovery.
BUILDING A HISTORICAL RECORD OF CLAREMONT REALESTATE
The inaugural 2026 report is intended to begin a recurring annual research series rather than serve as a one-time publication. Mr. Claremont Real Estate plans to continue documenting market changes, neighborhood information, housing trends and homeowner questions throughout the year. Future editions are intended to create a growing historical record showing how Claremont’s housing market, neighborhoods and consumer questions evolve over time. “Claremont deserves more than a temporary market snapshot,” Grynchal said. “We want to build a living record of its real estate market, homes and neighborhoods that becomes richer and more useful every year.”

Washington, United States, August 28th, 2026, Chainwire
As prediction-market volume hits record highs and regulators circle, identically worded midterm questions are trading several points apart depending on the venue. Predictions.io now tracks 9,700+ markets across Kalshi, Polymarket and Manifold in one place – with free fee and odds calculators so traders can see what a price actually costs them.
Prediction markets have never been bigger, or more contested. Kalshi, Polymarket and Polymarket US together posted a record $50.59 billion in combined volume in July, with Kalshi accounting for roughly 74.5% of the total. In the same month, New York City opened a probe into both leading venues, a Washington judge ordered Kalshi to halt most wagers in the state, and the CFTC began an internal review of so-called “mention markets.”
Amid that scrutiny, a simpler question has gone largely unexamined: when two venues list the same question, do they agree on the answer?
Often, they do not. On identically worded midterm markets tracked by Predictions.io, “Blue tsunami in 2026?” was priced at 44.5% on Polymarket and 36.0% on Kalshi. “Blue wave in 2026?” showed 82.5% against 74.0%. Both gaps are 8.5 percentage points — on questions whose wording is identical on the two venues. Across a sample of directly comparable binary markets live on more than one venue, the median gap was more than four points, and nearly half of the pairs differed by five points or more. (Prices as of 05:08 UTC on 28 August 2026; both venues’ live prices are shown side by side on Predictions.io.)
Those gaps matter to anyone quoting a single number. A market priced at 44.5% on one venue and 36.0% on another does not have one “market-implied probability” – it has two, and which one gets cited is arbitrary unless the reader is told both.
“A single venue’s price is a data point. The spread between venues is the information. When the two biggest markets in the world disagree by seven points on the same sentence, that disagreement is the story – and nobody who runs one of those markets is in a position to report it.” said spokesperson of Predictions.io
Predictions.io aggregates markets from Kalshi, Polymarket and Manifold, matching equivalent questions across venues so the same event can be compared directly. The platform currently tracks more than 9,700 event pages across 23 categories including US politics, economics, crypto, sport and geopolitics.
Alongside the comparison pages, Predictions.io publishes two free tools:
● Fee Calculator — enter any trade and see the fee, total outlay and effective all-in price on each venue, including Kalshi’s 0.07 × P × (1−P) taker formula and maker discount against Polymarket’s zero-fee standard markets.
A direct venue comparison is available at https://predictions.io/compare/polymarket-vs-kalshi, and live midterms markets at https://predictions.io/lobby/us-politics.
Predictions.io operates no market and takes no position in any contract. It is a data and comparison service, not an exchange, broker or investment adviser.

MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, has launched Earn Plus, a new flexible savings product, and introduced a limited-time event that offers eligible users an APR boost of up to 800%.
Earn Plus is a flexible savings product that allows users to stake stablecoins and earn daily interest. The product offers 100% principal protection, with interest generated from low-risk, high-liquidity assets. Earn Plus has no lock-up period or maximum subscription limit, allowing users to stake and redeem assets at any time, with redemptions processed within seconds.

Earn Plus complements MEXC’s existing Earn product suite: Flexible Savings offers everyday liquidity with floating rates, Fixed Savings provides locked-term products for higher guaranteed returns, and On-chain Earn enables participation in on-chain yield opportunities. These products allow users to select an Earn solution based on their liquidity needs and risk preference.
The limited-time event runs from August 27 to October 24, 2026 (UTC), during which users can earn additional APR boosters on top of standard rates. New users who complete a qualifying deposit task can receive an APR booster of up to 800%. New and existing users who refer friends to complete deposit tasks are eligible for APR boosters of up to 800%, while those who reach specified net deposit thresholds can receive boosters of up to 500%.

The renovated court at Communal Elementary School opens a dedicated space for learning, sport, and community life in Buhangin.
STARCARES, the community impact initiative of STARTRADER, has completed the redevelopment of the basketball court at Communal Elementary School in Buhangin, Davao City, Philippines. Now open and in daily use, the facility serves approximately 20,000 people, including around 2,000 learners, 72 school staff, 1,600 parents, and 16,000 residents of Barangay Communal.
For students, the court offers a dependable space to learn and play, doubling as the venue for graduations, award ceremonies, and school assemblies. For the wider community, it becomes a gathering place for meetings, celebrations, and youth activities once classes end, reflecting how central basketball is to daily life in Buhangin.
“Before, we held graduations, school activities and community gatherings on a cracked, uneven court. Today, our students have a safe and proper space to learn, play and celebrate, while the wider community has a place that can bring people together.” – Nelson Sepe Lubguban Jr., Principal of Communal Elementary School.
STARCARES designed the redevelopment around long-term community use, ensuring the investment extends beyond construction as a practical resource for students, families and the wider Buhangin community.
“A court becomes powerful when it gives young people somewhere to show up, be seen, and grow stronger together. That is the impact we wanted to create.” – Peter Karsten, Chief Executive Officer of STARTRADER.
The Davao project extends STARCARES’ work revitalising community infrastructure, following similar initiatives in Vietnam, Thailand and Nigeria, and reflects STARTRADER’s commitment to supporting the communities it operates in, beyond its work in financial markets.
Under “Where Tomorrow’s STARS Begin,” STARCARES will continue identifying communities where practical infrastructure can create lasting everyday value.
