Call it the Yellowstone effect, but ranch living is definitely having a moment.
In recent years, countless homebuyers seeking a blend of luxury, privacy, and a closer connection to nature have opted for rural properties that offer more bang for your buck — and a tranquil lifestyle that promises less fuss and more rewards.
This trend has not gone unnoticed in the celebrity world, with notable figures like Donald Glover, Kelis, and even Calvin Harris (who ventured as far as Ibiza to secure a 183-acre farm) embracing the ranch lifestyle.
And now, there’s a new option on the market for prospective buyers seeking to own a piece of rural California.
The Green Acre Ranch — a nearly 20-acre property in Somis, California with mini-horse stables and over 1,500 income-producing fruit trees — has just been listed for $7.35 million, presenting a unique blend of luxury ranch living and lucrative agricultural potential.
Rochelle Maize and Myra Nourmand of Nourmand & Associates hold the listing, and they’ve given us all the deets on this unique opportunity.

An income-producing ranch
Located conveniently an hour’s drive from Los Angeles and a stone’s throw from the charming towns of Camarillo and Moorpark, the Green Acre Ranch offers a perfect retreat for those wanting proximity to the city while enjoying the tranquility of the countryside.
The property spans 20 acres and is adorned with 1,500 matured avocado, pomegranate, and lemon trees, which have historically turned a profit, generating $72k and $84.5k in revenue in 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The estate boasts an array of features designed to cater to the luxury-minded homeowner with a penchant for outdoor living.
From a long gated driveway lined with roses to a swimming pool and a large pond that mirror the property’s serene setting, each detail has been curated to enhance the ranch’s natural beauty and its panoramic views of the valley.
The sprawling property has a charming, Mediterranean-style home that allows guests and residents to soak in the picturesque canyon views from nearly every room of the house.
“The estate is set away from the street, which gives the homeowner ultimate privacy,” listing agent Myra Nourmand tells us.

Inside the 5-bedroom home
Featuring 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, an inviting eat-in kitchen, and a showstopping Spanish-tiled staircase, the interiors draw you in as much as the idyllic surroundings.
Built in 2008, the house features tile, wood, and stone flooring with two fireplaces adding to the coziness of the home. And the rooms are as grand and impressive as the rest of the property.
The heart of the home
The great room stands out as the property’s crown jewel, providing breathtaking views of the expansive yard and the canyon beyond.
As Myra Nourmand highlights, the ranch offers vistas on par with those found in Italy, creating a scenic backdrop that could rival scenes from “The Sound of Music.”
“The Green Acre Ranch’s views are truly magnificent,” agent Myra Nourmand tells us. “I’ve traveled extensively across Europe and can say that this property is on par with the views found in Italy. As you walk through the property’s French doors, it’s like you’re in “The Sound of Music” with these stunning views of the hills and canyon.”
A rich historical tapestry
The Green Acre Ranch carries a storied past with Hollywood connections, having been a preferred gathering spot for musicians at the behest of previous owner Mary Hollander.
Mary Hollander directed and produced for the Sagamore Players, a local theater troupe, often staging shows in her home. Her husband, Max Hollander, was a violinist in the early 1940s and he was an associate concertmaster for the NBC Symphony Orchestra led by Toscanini.
According to our sources, Hollander used to have parties at the property where all these Hollywood musicians would come up on the first Sunday of the month. The ranch’s Hollywood legacy, coupled with its robust agricultural potential, makes it a property with both charm and investment value.
It has an orchard with 1,500 fruit trees
Rochelle Maize emphasizes the ranch’s vast outdoor amenities, including an 11-stall horse stable, a luxurious BBQ pavilion, and the possibility to add more facilities such as sports courts or additional animal shelters.
The property also boasts an orchard of 1,500 fruit trees, including avocado, orange, lemon, guava, grapefruit, pomegranate, and more, offering a trove of California produce just moments away. With this much land, prospective buyers can cultivate a vineyard, build sports facilities like a pickleball court, or construct more animal shelters and barns for pigs, ducks, or goats. All animals are welcome!
The property’s orchard not only enhances its appeal but also offers a sustainable living option by allowing homeowners to cultivate a variety of fruits.

Stables for mini-horses
Possibly the most charming amenity is reserved for the equestrian enthusiast, as the property can easily be turned into a miniature horse farm.
An 11-stall miniature horse stable stands ready to accommodate small equine companions, with the flexibility to convert for full-size horses.
There’s even a private pond
In line with the whole “trading the city life for quiet ranch living”, this particular luxury listing comes with both the traditional pool AND a cute little pond.
The tranquil private pond adds a touch of whimsy to the landscape, offering a serene backdrop for entertainment and relaxation.

Located in Somis, California
“Somis is conveniently located just an hour’s drive from Los Angeles, making it ideal for someone who seeks a quiet and relaxing retreat but still wants to be close to city life,” listing agent Rochelle Maize says in an exclusive quote for Fancy Pants Homes.
“Situated amidst the charming towns of Camarillo and Moorpark each just a short 15–20-minute drive away, residents and visitors alike can enjoy outlet malls, scenic hiking trails, and country club golf courses. The town of Somis itself is ripe with neighboring farms and nurseries that provide fresh local fruits, vibrant flowers, and delicious nuts, adding to the area’s idyllic rural charm.”
A multifaceted opportunity
Beyond its enchanting living spaces and outdoor amenities, the ranch serves as a fully functional farm.
The previous owner leveraged the orchard’s produce to create a line of kitchen and bath products, from gourmet balsamic vinegar, including fig and pomegranate flavors, to avocado soaps, body scrubs, and body lotions, showcasing the estate’s versatility and entrepreneurial potential.
The Green Acre Ranch is more than just a home; it’s a lifestyle choice for those seeking privacy, luxury, and the opportunity to live off the land, all within reach of Los Angeles.
As the trend towards ranch living grows among celebrities and luxury homebuyers alike, this listing represents a rare chance to own a piece of California’s coveted rural lifestyle.

RICHLAND TWP., Pa. – Phillies, Eagles, Flyers and 76ers fans have a new spot to score jerseys, hats and other gear in upper Bucks County.
Rally House, a specialty sports store chain offering an expansive selection of apparel, gifts, home decor and other types of merchandise representing local NCAA, NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL and MLS teams, opened its newest location last week at 244 N. West End Blvd. in Richland Township.
The new store fills the space previously occupied by Tuesday Morning, a home goods retailer, in the Trainer’s Corner shopping center, just outside Quakertown.
Rally House Trainers Corner, located between Petco and Harbor Freight, is the company’s 15th store in the Philadelphia region and first location in the Quakertown area.
“Fans have been coming by all week and couldn’t wait to see us open!” said Ashley Bear, Rally House’s district manager, in a news release. “Once we opened, customers were in awe right when they stepped in about the size of the store and selection of product and teams to shop.”
Rally House traces its origins to 1989, when Tim and Mabel “Peg” Liebert started “Mabel’s Kitchen,” a catalog featuring Kansas-related apparel, gifts and other merchandise.
Mabel’s Kitchen evolved into another business, “Kansas Sampler,” which featured five Kansas City area stores selling Kansas Jayhawks, Kansas State Wildcats, Kansas City Chiefs and Kansas City Royals gear.
The company experienced great success, and the Lieberts eventually decided to expand the business to other markets under the “Rally House” name in 2008, according to a company description.
Today, the Kansas-based Rally House has more than 190 locations across 18 states.
The new Quakertown area store supplements more than a dozen other regional locations, including a Lehigh Valley shop in Lower Macungie Township, two other Bucks County stores and several locations in Montgomery County.
Rally House stays true to its roots by providing “an impeccable selection of local and team-related apparel and gifts, including exclusive designs available only at Rally House,” according to the company’s website.
Regional stores offer a wide array of merchandise, including clothing, blankets, glassware and signs, featuring logos and designs of local NCAA, NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, and MLS teams in addition to locally inspired apparel, gifts and food.
“Customer satisfaction is a top priority for Rally House Trainers Corner, so this location carries only the best brands available, including big names such as ’47, Antigua, New Era, Nike, and Tommy Bahama,” the news release states.
“Fans will also appreciate the vast selection of teams in stock, like the Philadelphia Phillies, Flyers, 76ers, Union, and Eagles, as well as area college teams with Penn State, Temple, Villanova, and more.
Customers can browse apparel such as T-shirts, sweatshirts, coats and shorts, along with footwear and fashion accessories such as slippers, hats, scarves and jewelry.
A wide variety of other gifts and home decor include items such as glassware, coasters, stickers, magnets, wall plaques, license plate frames, plush toys, socks and baby items.
No two Rally House stores are identical.
“They each carry merchandise customized and tailored to the specific collegiate and professional teams in that area,” a message on the company’s website reads.
“In additional to team apparel, Rally House offers a wide selection of local styles. This includes our very own exclusive line of RALLY Brand™ merchandise. The same items we have in our stores can also be found online at any time. We want to make things as easy and seamless as possible for fans who want to show their unique team spirit, regardless of wherever they live or shop.”
In addition to selling items relating to local sports teams, Rally House also works in conjunction with local sports stars and celebrities. These partnerships manifest themselves in the form of ticket giveaways, autograph sessions, radio remote contests and meet-and-greet events.
The Rally House Trainers Corner store is open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays.

In the realm of real estate, every detail counts. From the layout of the rooms to the curb appeal, every aspect of a property plays a role in influencing potential buyers. Among these factors, the psychology of color holds significant sway. Colors have the power to evoke emotions, set moods, and even influence decision-making. In the world of real estate, understanding the psychology of color can be the key to creating a compelling and inviting space that resonates with buyers. Let’s delve into how different hues impact potential homebuyers:

The Warm Welcome of Yellow
Yellow is often associated with warmth, happiness, and positivity. It’s a color that can evoke feelings of joy and optimism, making it an excellent choice for entryways and living spaces. A splash of yellow in the form of accent walls, décor, or even front doors can create a welcoming atmosphere that draws buyers in.
Tranquillity in Blue
Blue is renowned for its calming and serene qualities. It’s often linked with feelings of peace, trust, and stability. In real estate, incorporating shades of blue can be particularly effective in bedrooms and bathrooms, where relaxation and tranquillity are paramount. Whether it’s through soft furnishings, wall colors, or décor accents, blue can help create a soothing retreat for potential buyers.
Energizing with Red
Red is a color that commands attention. It’s associated with passion, energy, and excitement. While using red in large doses can be overwhelming, strategic touches of this vibrant hue can add a sense of urgency and vitality to a space. Consider incorporating red accents in areas where you want to create a sense of excitement or where you want to draw attention, such as the dining room or kitchen.
Balancing Act with Green
Green symbolizes nature, growth, and harmony. It’s a versatile color that can evoke feelings of freshness and balance. In real estate, green is often used to create a sense of connection with the outdoors, making it an ideal choice for spaces like the living room or patio. Whether it’s through indoor plants, accent walls, or natural décor elements, green can help bring a sense of vitality and balance to a property.
Sophistication in Neutrals
Neutrals such as white, beige, and grey may seem subdued, but they play a crucial role in real estate. These colors provide a blank canvas for buyers, allowing them to envision their own style and preferences in the space. Neutrals also create a sense of sophistication and timelessness, making them an excellent choice for walls, floors, and larger furniture pieces.
Inviting with Warm Tones
Warm tones like orange, terracotta, and earthy browns can create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. These colors are often associated with comfort, security, and hospitality. Incorporating warm tones into common areas like the living room or dining room can help create a sense of intimacy and homeliness that resonates with buyers.

Last April, when Bed Bath & Beyond held its store-closing sales after declaring bankruptcy, I popped into one of its Manhattan locations and found the shelves almost completely stripped of inventory, snagged by earlier shoppers who’d been quicker to the liquidation bargains. Dwell’s senior home guides editor Megan’s experience at another Manhattan location, though, seemed slightly less chaotic, and even in small but not insignificant ways gratifying. So last week, when Dwell’s managing editor Jack Balderrama Morley dropped a tweet in a team Slack channel pointing out the “crazy sales” at another major retailer, Joann, which on March 18 announced it filed for bankruptcy, and said: “Maybe a writer wants to go and see what home design can be pulled out of a dying store?” I bravely volunteered. Most of the online reactions I’d seen to Joann’s bankruptcy were more focused on corporate details than implications for crafters, but I assumed the news would circulate widely enough in at least some corners of TikTok’s DIY universe that the sales would generate a fairly quick clean out.
To be clear, my putting myself forward is only notable because from where I live in Manhattan, a trip to the craft store—or any department store, really—is a vastly different experience than in the suburbs. The Hudson, Ohio-based chain, which has operated for more than 80 years, has roughly 800 stores nationwide (all of which the company said will continue to operate as it restructures its finances). But none of those stores are in Manhattan, or even Brooklyn. Long Island has three locations, and there’s one in Scarsdale, about an hour’s drive north of my apartment (closer to Connecticut in actuality). Across the Hudson, there’s a Joann store in Paramus, New Jersey. Depending on the time of day, the drive is anywhere between 30 and 50 minutes.
My girlfriend and I have a Zipcar membership that we use almost solely for the purpose of completing another task that’s a vastly different experience when you live in New York City: grocery shopping. Every other month or so, we go to a Trader Joe’s outside of the city to stock up on groceries that we can drive home, not carry. We were due for another Big Shop and had also been talking about crafting over the weekend, since the forecast was gross and rainy. In Paramus, there’s a Trader Joe’s all but three minutes from Joann. So Paramus it was. We were making a Saturday of it.
The arts-and-crafts store, formerly known as Jo-Ann Fabrics, was a big part of my childhood. (Full disclosure: I was blissfully unaware of the 2018 rebrand and had been using the former moniker up until I learned about the recent bankruptcy filing, and am still having a tough time adjusting to the name change, in true millennial fashion.) In the early 2000s, the Jo(-)ann (Fabrics)(!) on the side of Highway 101 in Corte Madera, California, was where I bought fabric for weekly sewing classes with Winky Cherry (I’m serious), a kids’ sewing teacher and author, I’m just learning, who taught out of a downstairs room in her home. It’s where I found felt and appliqués for the DIY poodle skirts I wore to school sock hops. It’s also where I found the fabric, pom-poms, and ribbons I tasked my adult neighbor, whose children I babysat, with fashioning into a jester costume for me one Halloween; one side had blue fabric with a moon pattern, the other a maroon background with suns. There were elastic cinches at the wrists and ankles that created frilly cuffs. In retrospect, it was quite a vision for my young mind to conceive of, but stylistically…misguided.
Before last weekend, I hadn’t been back to one of the stores since that time in my childhood. One of Joann’s competitors, Michael’s, has locations in Brooklyn and Manhattan, and I sadly did not retain any sewing skills from Winky Cherry’s classes, so these days the selection there or at Blick Art Materials—of which there are many in New York City—does the trick for my occasional craft projects. I was expecting the scene to be somewhat depressing: sparse aisles stocked with the same art supplies you can now order to your front door on Amazon, piles of worse for wear fabric collecting dust, and nary a shopper born after the turn of the millennium (and that’s being generous). The latter, from my observation, was true, but other parts surprised me.
The clearance sale shelves at the front of the store, marked 25 percent off, were haphazardly stocked as though either winds of eager customers had already blown through them, spoiling any prior display order, or the employees had simply gathered items from other aisles—a partially unwound yarn bundle, decorative stickers, children’s trinkets, and, unexplainably, a pack of popcorn seasoning, and quickly dumped them in this section, knowing any real organization efforts wouldn’t be worth their while.
We set ourselves a $200 budget, keeping in mind a few DIY projects we discussed prior, and knowing that we like to keep a stock of craft supplies for impromptu projects, so this sale would be as good a time as ever to spend somewhat freely. First, we popped over to the bead aisles to scope out the four for $10 deals. We picked 15 bead strands—with between 10 to 40 beads per set, depending—and a roll of clear cord (for later necklace-making projects). We also grabbed a small organizer to keep the beads in; not on sale, but something we felt necessary, and reasonable for $4.50. The next aisles had some of the biggest steals we encountered: 10 for $5 on two-ounce acrylic paints, 50 to 70 percent off fine art canvases, and 25 percent off other art supplies, from paint brushes to sets of paint, pens, and colored pencils. We added a 10-pack of 8×10 canvases and two 5×5 canvases to our shopping cart, along with a 24-tube acrylic paint setand a few larger paint tubes, plus a can of black spray paint and some wooden semicircle cutouts for a DIY mirror project.
We walked toward the next part of the store we knew had something we wanted: fiber filling to revive our couch cushions, which we assumed we’d find near the fabric department. Between there and the robust yarn section, it felt, for a second, like we could be in any big box retailer of the home goods ilk. You could buy outdoor rugs, plant stands, picture frames, and storage containers just like what’s in stock at Target or Home Depot. In my memory, the Jo(-)ann (Fabrics)(!) of my youth was much less home decor-oriented.
Still, the crafts and sewing storage items were marked 50 percent off, so we grabbed three collapsible bins in the style of Hay’s recycled color crates for the space above our kitchen cabinets at $5.99 each. I also picked out an 11×14 black picture frame, with visions of repainting it with a two-tone trim using our new acrylics set. We grabbed two large bags of the fiber filling—40 percent off, $17.99 each—and at some point along the way picked up a five-pound bucket of air-dry clay, which ran us $6.99.
Every five or so aisles we’d pass another shopper, which, compared to the experience of shopping at most major retailers, is essentially like walking through a desert, but I’d imagined something much more vacant. I realized I was likely conflating my understanding of bankruptcy with the idea of returning to a forsaken mainstay from my childhood, so to see other customers at all made me feel like the place was sufficiently busy.
The general energy in the store, however, reminded me otherwise. At one point, I heard an exasperated yell from the next aisle, “Is it so hard for people to put things back where they fucking belong?!” I obviously had to check whose Public Display of Begrudge this was; when I walked past, there was only one woman, wearing a Joann apron and organizing inventory.
In the fabric section, we had to squeeze our cart past a plastic storage bin with wet floor signs on either side that was blocking most of the walkway in order to catch droplets from a ceiling leak. I saw another millennial-looking couple talking to a woman at the service counter and wondered what they were there for, feeling an instant sense of curiosity and camaraderie with the other shoppers visibly under 60. We thought about buying some fabric to fashion a small curtain/cabinet skirt to hide our eyesore kitchen trash area, but decided against it—mostly due to decision paralysis, but also because we weren’t sure anything from the fabric selection would even really improve the situation. (As a kid, the actual quality of Jo-Ann’s Fabrics was not something I noticed, apparently.)
At checkout, the sweet (older) cashier winced as our balance climbed and offered to add an extra coupon that was typically only available online to bring our total down. It seemed like she hadn’t rung up a $184.17 tab for anyone in a long time.
Our first DIY project was the easiest: we added the stuffing to our couch cushions, which have formed light indents in various spots because of my bad habit of WFH…from the couch. Then, we took some of the beads and Gorilla Glued them to a glass vase we already own. I painted the black picture frame with two blue acrylics and put a Really Bad Portrait of us from the Upper West Side flea market in it. (I’m still battling my partner to let us hang it up in the bedroom.)
Next, we spray-painted the wooden semicircles black and Gorilla Glued them to the side of our Ikea Hovet mirror, inspired by furniture we saw at Originario on a recent trip to Mexico City. (We still have enough left to do the same with another black mirror in our dining room.) We used some of the quick-dry clay to make a small, foot-shaped catchall—again, inspired by ceramics we saw in Mexico City. We’re still deciding on what to paint on the canvases, but now we have the supplies at the ready for when inspiration strikes. In fact, we’ve barely scratched the surface of what we bought on our haul, so that trip will last us many more DIY projects. And, should the clearance sales continue and we decide we want more bead deals or actually do want to give that cabinet skirt a try, our receipt has a promo code that can be used on Joann’s website, so we won’t have to brave another visit.

In the kitchen, more Shaker-style cabinets, complete with a farmhouse sink, reinforce the theme.
Although the owner initially wanted an all-black kitchen, he and the designers eventually went with a light cream laminate for the cabinets at the top, with the black laminate kept to the cabinets at the bottom. As black laminate attracts fingerprints and dust, the designers selected a low-maintenance one that is less susceptible to marks.
The third and newest ship in the Virgin Voyages fleet is Resilient Lady, which was christened in 2023 and adds yet another bright red vessel to the high seas.
Virgin Voyages is an adults-only cruise line known for quirky modern design, entertainment that pushes the limits and exceptional, all-included specialty dining.
Virgin Voyages Resilient Lady destinations
The Resilient Lady’s home port is in Athens, and the ship sails itineraries in the Mediterranean for part of the year. Then, to reposition itself, the ship makes a transcontinental voyage that visits Dubai, India and Southeast Asia, before cruising on to Australia and New Zealand.
The ship also spends time in Europe, making stops in the U.K., the Netherlands, Spain and Portugal, among others.
Resilient Lady ship details
Don’t expect to find a lot of differences between the Resilient Lady and its two siblings, the Scarlet Lady and Valiant Lady — all three ships are nearly identical.
On the Resilient Lady, the nearly 2,800 passengers stay in just over 1,400 cabins across seven levels, ranging from solo rooms to large, impressive suites. Passengers also have access to amenities, restaurants and entertainment across another six decks, with a jogging track and yoga deck topping things off.
Expect to come aboard and find minimalist design, trendy music, lighting that changes throughout the day and a staff that sees entertaining as their raison d’etre.
Resilient Lady accommodations
The staterooms on the Resilient Lady are unique from the get-go. Instead of a traditional room key, cabins are unlocked using a bracelet made from plastic recovered from the ocean. Nearly all of the cabins come with balconies and many have a signature red hammock, allowing guests to lounge al fresco in privacy.
There are a handful of interior cabins without an ocean view. Social Insider cabins have bunk beds and are great for groups up to four, while Solo Insider cabins are smaller and perfect for the single traveler who doesn’t need a lot of space.
Both balcony and interior rooms typically have standard — and quite small — bathrooms with good lighting and wall-mounted Red Flower toiletries in the shower.
For a real treat, reserve one of the RockStar Quarters or the Mega RockStar Quarters. Some of these suites feature terrace whirlpools, living rooms and seaview showers.
Those lodged in RockStar Quarters and other suites are treated to a private area on one of the top decks known as Richard’s Rooftop. Here, the outdoor lounge serves complimentary drinks throughout the day, with live music at certain hours and whirlpools reserved for just these guests.
Other benefits of these cabins can include access to the spa’s thermal area, free laundry, comped minibars, and priority boarding. Roundtrip airport transfers are also available for these guests, and the largest suites have real guitars and amps for ensuite, self-made entertainment.
Rock Star Coordinators, otherwise known as cabin attendants, patrol the hallways of the most premium cabins to provide assistance in the room — making the bed, cleaning, helping with the ensuite record player or delivering room service.
In all staterooms, there’s an electronic tablet that controls the lights, temperature, shades, music and television. To provide extra space in some cabins, the beds can convert to a sofa during the day and revert back to a bed by night.
Resilient Lady amenities
There’s no shortage of things to do while sailing on the Resilient Lady. You can shop in the onboard boutiques, sunbathe by the pool, play basketball, enjoy arcade games, drink at the bars, test your boxing skills or relax at the spa.
The thermal spa area has steam rooms, saunas, a salt room, plunge pools, a beauty salon and spa treatment areas. Topless sunbathing is also an option on one of the upper decks.
There’s also an outdoor jogging track and free fitness classes on a fixed schedule. For a permanent reminder of your trip, visit the onboard tattoo parlor.
Resilient Lady dining
With more than 20 dining options on the ship, you can eat somewhere different daily and enjoy a variety of global cuisines.
The restaurants on the Resilient Lady are identical to those on Virgin Voyages’ other ships, and dining at all of them is included in the cruise fare. Unlike other cruise lines, you won’t pay extra to dine at specialty restaurants aboard Virgin Voyages, though some premium menu items may cost extra.
Instead of one main dining room or buffet, there’s a food hall — akin to what you might find in a high-end shopping mall — called The Galley, serving all kinds of prepared-to-order dishes. You’ll find sushi, ramen bowls, fresh salads, burgers, all-day breakfast choices, tacos, and even bento boxes with to-go goodies to take to the cabin.
Specialty restaurants include Pink Agave, a Mexican outlet with flaming skillets for fajitas and authentic fare from around the country; The Wake, featuring steak and seafood; and The Test Kitchen, serving up molecular fusion cuisine offerings. There’s also Italian cuisine, veggie-forward spots and more.
Other favorites include an ice cream bar, a carnival-inspired, 24-hour diner with popcorn and booze-infused milkshakes, and a Korean restaurant that has guests cooking barbecue and playing drinking games during dinner.
You can also pay for a dinner theater show — which includes a multi-course meal accompanied by acrobatic entertainment — or an afternoon tea paired with Champagne.
Resilient Lady beverages
One thing not included in the cost of sailing on the Resilient Lady is alcohol. There aren’t any drink packages like you’ll find on many other cruises. Instead, you can choose to pay in advance in the form of a bar tab, or as you go. If you choose to pre-pay your bar tab, you’ll get a bonus based on how much you spend.
There are numerous bars on the ship, from the rooftop pool bar to the ship’s own tap room, where you can order a beer growler to take elsewhere on the ship. And with the cruise line’s app, you can order a glass of Champagne to be delivered to you anywhere on board with just a quick shake of your phone.
For a pick-me-up, you can find all kinds of caffeinated brews at Grounds Club, and free Intelligentsia coffee is served in different venues on the ship. Travelers can also pay extra for cold-pressed juices and barista-made coffee drinks.
Resilient Lady nightlife and shows
The ship’s main hub for evening nightlife is called The Manor. Drinks flow constantly, and nightly acts include live music, comedy and even an adult-themed comedy show with audience participation. You won’t find Broadway-style musicals aboard, but there is a Greek history-inspired song and dance show.
There’s never a shortage of entertainment and talented staff perform all over the ship in bars and lounge areas, so don’t be alarmed if someone dressed as a passenger begins performing for you.
Known as “happenings” or “pop-up moments,” these impromptu improv acts add a bit of intrigue to the cruising experience.
For those who want to belt out some tunes, there’s a karaoke room. Also on the program are a casino, drag shows, fashion shows, bar crawls and even scavenger hunts.
You’ll find arcade games, themed parties (like the Scarlet Night evening) and a full roster of staff-led activities, from dance parties to pool parties.
You can keep an eye on everything by downloading the cruise line’s app or asking reception for a printed schedule. It’s easy to get around the ship since maps are posted everywhere, and the three sets of elevators are color-coded to help you know where you are (purple is at the front, blue is at the aft).
Resilient Lady inclusions
When sailing aboard Resilient Lady, you won’t pay extra for gratuities, Wi-Fi, specialty restaurants or onboard activities. However, you will have to pay extra for alcohol, destination excursions and upgraded Wi-Fi for streaming.
The cruise allows passengers to carry on board two bottles of wine per cabin at embarkation, but no liquor. This can help cut down on the cost of beverages during the sailing. Keep in mind that the drinking age changes based on where the ship is located — in the U.S. it’s 21, while in Europe and international waters the age is 18.
Resilient Lady is a treat
Virgin Voyages has managed to transform the traditional cruise experience into something both upscale, but playful enough, to appeal to all ages.
Rarely feeling crowded, the ship is hardly as large as some of the biggest in the world, and what you’ll find on this Richard Branson-born gem is exactly what you would expect from the daring British entrepreneur. Just be sure to pack an appetite, your dancing shoes and a Titanic-sized sense of humor.

How to maximize your rewards
You want a travel credit card that prioritizes what’s important to you. Here are our picks for the best travel credit cards of 2024, including those best for:
A home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC) leverages your ownership stake to help you finance large costs over time.
Home equity financing offers more money at a lower interest rate than credit cards or personal loans.
Some of the most common (and best) reasons for using home equity include paying for home renovations, consolidating debt and covering emergency or medical bills.
Although allowable, it’s best to avoid using home equity for discretionary purchases and expenses.
The U.S. seems to have dodged a recession, but elevated interest rates, rising prices and shrinking savings continue to imperil many Americans’ financial security. Borrowing hasn’t been this expensive in 20 years and, to add insult to injury, it’s harder to get financing or credit, too. Half of Americans who’ve applied for a loan or financial product since March 2022 (when the Fed started raising its key benchmark rate) have been rejected, according to Bankrate’s recent credit denials survey).
But amid still-high mortgage rates and home prices, there’s a silver lining for homeowners. The rise in property values has increased the worth of their home equity, or outright ownership stake. You can borrow against that equity to meet new expenses — or settle old ones.
Two options to tap into your equity are home equity loans and home equity lines of credit (HELOCs). They may not be as well-known as other financing options (in Bankrate’s credit denials survey, only 4 percent of Americans have applied for one since March 2022), but they have several advantages.
If you’re a homeowner needing cash, here are 10 reasons to use home equity — some better than others. In each case, we’ve noted the pros and cons.

Why use home equity?
Key terms
Home equity
Home equity is the difference between what your home is worth and how much you still owe on your mortgage. As you pay down your mortgage and your home’s value increases, your equity stake grows.
Home equity loan
A home equity loan is a type of second mortgage in which you receive a lump sum upfront and then make regular monthly repayments over the loan term, usually at a fixed interest rate.
HELOC
A HELOC is a revolving line of credit, much like a credit card, that comes with a variable rate. You can borrow, repay and then re-use funds as needed during a set draw period and then pay off your balance during a repayment period.
Tapping your home’s equity can help you cover significant expenses, improve your financial situation or achieve any other money goal. The interest rates on a home equity loan or HELOC are usually lower than those on other forms of financing, and you can often obtain more funds with an equity product compared to a credit card, which might have a lower limit, or a personal loan. Home equity loans and HELOCs are also repaid over a longer term, meaning you’ll have more manageable payments month to month.
10 reasons to use a home equity loan
There aren’t any restrictions on how to use equity in your home, but there are a few ways to make the most of a home equity loan or HELOC. Here are 10 ways to use your home equity, along with their pros and cons.
1. Home improvements
Home improvement is one of the most common reasons homeowners take out home equity loans or HELOCs. Besides making the home more comfortable, upgrades could make it more valuable.
“Home equity is a great option to finance large projects like a kitchen renovation that will increase a home’s value over time,” says Glenn Brunker, president of online lender Ally Home. “Many times, these investments will pay for themselves by increasing the home’s value.”
Another reason to consider a home equity loan or HELOC for renovations: You could deduct the interest paid on the loan, assuming you itemize your deductions on tax return.
Pros
You can reinvest your home’s equity to increase the value of your property.
If you itemize your tax return, you could deduct the interest on your home equity loan or HELOC, up to the limit.
A HELOC, which allows gradual withdrawals, in particular can be ideal for long-term projects in which you pay contractors at set intervals, or ones in which the final cost is indefinite.
Cons
The monthly payments on a home equity loan or HELOC, coupled with your monthly mortgage payments, could stretch your budget too thin.
Depending on the scope of the remodel, you might need more than what you can borrow from your equity.
If you can’t repay the home equity loan or HELOC, the lender could foreclose on your home.
2. Education costs
A home equity loan or HELOC can help you fund higher education or continuing education, whether for you, your children or other loved ones. This route typically only makes sense, however, when home equity rates are lower than student loan rates. That doesn’t happen often, especially compared to federal student loans.
Consider, too, the type of education you’re financing. Someone obtaining a teaching certification, for example, might be able to get the cost covered by their future employer. Some public service professions are also eligible for student loan forgiveness after a period of time. In these cases, it wouldn’t be smart to put your home on the line with an equity loan.
Pros
Could be a lower-interest option than a private student loan, a federal parent loan or a personal loan.
HELOC gradual withdrawal structure tailor-made for annual or semi-annual tuition payments.
Could furnish a greater sum than a student loan.
Cons
Repayment starts sooner (with a home equity loan).
Rates not as competitive as federal student loans’.
Tapping home equity is riskier: If you default, you could lose your home.
The student might be able to get financial help in other ways, such as from a future employer or via loan forgiveness.
3. Debt consolidation
Americans’ credit card debt is skyrocketing. According to Bankrate’s recent credit card survey, nearly half (49 percent) of credit card holders carry a balance from month to month, up from 39 percent in 2021. Given their average interest rate of 22.75 percent, paying down that debt can be tricky — and expensive.
A HELOC or home equity loan can be used to pay off the plastic, along with other high-interest loans. “This is another very popular use of home equity, as one is often able to consolidate debt at a much lower rate over a longer term and reduce monthly expenses significantly,” says Matt Hackett, operations manager at mortgage lender Equity Now.
Home Equity
According to Bankrate’s February 2024 credit card repayment strategies survey, only 10% of credit card-holding U.S. adults report using a home equity loan and/or line of credit to consolidate and pay off credit card debt.
Pros
You could save on interest and lower your monthly payments.
Eliminating credit card debt boosts your credit score.
Cons
You’re turning an unsecured debt, such as a credit card, into secured debt now backed by your home. If you default on your equity loan or HELOC, you could lose your house to foreclosure.
If you haven’t broken the financial habits that got you into debt in the first place, or come up with a plan for repayment, you’re simply swapping one form of debt for another.
4. Emergency expenses
Many financial experts agree you should have an emergency fund to cover three to six months of living expenses, but that’s not the reality for many Americans, according to Bankrate’s 2024 annual emergency savings survey. If you find yourself in a costly situation — maybe you’re facing large medical bills or unexpected home repairs — a home equity loan or HELOC can be one way to stay afloat.
However, this is only a viable option if you have a plan for how to repay the debt. While you might feel better knowing you could access your home equity in case of an emergency, it still makes smart financial sense to set up and start contributing to an emergency fund. Plus, the application process for a HELOC or home equity loan takes time (though it’s speeded up of late: Some online lenders, such as Better, are offering approval decisions within one day). In a true emergency when you need cash fast, you’d need to already have the loan in place to use it.
Pros
If you’re in an emergency situation and have no other means to come up with the necessary cash, a home equity loan or HELOC could be the answer.
Cons
If you don’t have a HELOC or home equity loan already established, you’ll need to complete the application process first. So these loans won’t do you any good in a time-sensitive emergency.
You’re depleting your ownership stake, diluting the worth of a major asset: your home.
5. Weddings
The average cost of a wedding in 2023 was $35,000, according to the planning site The Knot — up $5,000 from 2022. For some couples, it might make sense to take out a home equity loan or HELOC to cover this expense, rather than a wedding loan, a type of personal loan. That’s because the interest rates on personal loans are typically higher than interest rates for home equity loans and HELOCs.
The major disadvantage, however: You’d be putting your home on the line for a discretionary expense. This can be risky if you don’t have a solid plan to repay the loan. It also tacks on interest to an expense that didn’t have interest to begin with, ultimately costing you more.
If you do go this route, be careful not to take out more than you need. If you’re unsure of the total tab for your big day, a HELOC is the better option.
Pros
Rates probably cheaper than those of personal loans or credit cards.
You may be able to access more funds than you would with other loans.
Cons
It’s a questionable move to put your home on the line for what’s essentially a big party.
You’re paying interest, so your wedding will cost more than you think: You could be paying for it decades after you wed.
When the loan’s used this way, the interest isn’t tax-deductible.
6. Business expenses
Some business owners use their home equity to start or grow their company. If you need capital, you might be able to save money on interest by taking equity out of your home instead of taking out a business loan. Before you commit, though, run the numbers. A return on investment isn’t guaranteed, and you’re putting your house on the line.
Pros
You might be able to borrow money at a lower interest rate with a home equity loan than you would with a small business loan.
It might be easier to obtain capital with a home equity loan than with a loan tied to your business, especially if you’re just starting out.
Cons
If your business fails, you’d still need to make payments on what you borrowed, regardless of lack of earnings. If you can’t, you could face foreclosure.
7. Investment opportunities
It’s possible to use home equity to invest in the stock market or buy a rental property — though both propositions are risky and require serious care and consideration. A well-qualified borrower might be able to take out a home equity loan on an investment property, as well.
Consider the interest rate on home equity borrowing, especially if you’re using the funds for investment purposes. “With interest rates of 9 percent, 10 percent or even higher, this is no longer low-cost debt,” says Greg McBride, CFA, Bankrate’s chief financial analyst. “At rates that high, it is a tough hurdle to clear to get a positive return on your investment.”
Pros
Investing in the stock market or real estate can be a great way to build wealth.
Leveraging assets to invest increases your rate of return.
Cons
Investments always carry risk, but that’s especially true when you’re putting your home on the line. It’s possible that you won’t earn a high enough return to outweigh your loan debt.
You can’t take advantage of the home equity loan’s tax deduction on interest, except in a few cases, such as buying adjacent property or land.
8. Retirement income
If your retirement savings are falling short, tapping home’s equity can help supplement your income so you can better manage expenses. These funds can be used to cover bills, emergency expenses or even home improvements to make you more comfortable as you age. A big caveat: This strategy relies on your ability to repay the loan or HELOC. If you’re not yet drawing Social Security, you might be able to repay HELOC funds with the benefit money later on. If you’re fully retired and struggling to make ends meet, however, it’s possible you won’t have the means to repay the debt, even if you have a HELOC you don’t have to pay back right away.
There are other roadblocks to this strategy, too: If you’re still paying your first mortgage, tapping your equity adds to your expenses and puts you in debt that much longer. It might also be harder to even get an equity loan if your income has decreased in retirement.
Pros
Using your hard-acquired home wealth as source for retirement income can be a smart use of assets.
Cons
You’ll need to think through how to repay your loan while you’re retired, and even afterwards. Home equity debt doesn’t disappear when you pass away — your heirs will have to work with your lender if they want to keep the home.
It could be harder to qualify for a home equity loan with a lower retirement income.
Home Equity
If you need retirement income, a reverse mortgage may be a better option than a home equity loan or HELOC. With a reverse mortgage, your lender pays you a lump sum or a series of monthly payments; how much you can get is based on your home’s value. The loan balance (plus interest) becomes due when you move out, sell the home or pass away. Most reverse mortgages include a “non-recourse” clause, which stipulates that you (or your estate) can’t owe more than the home’s value when the loan becomes due (so if the home’s depreciated and worth less than the loan balance, no one is on the hook for the difference). The advantages: There are no monthly repayments while you’re living in the home, and there are no income or credit score requirements, so you can qualify even if you’re struggling financially. However, to get a reverse mortgage, you usually need to be 62 or older and have substantial equity in your home — meaning, your primary mortgage be substantially, if not entirely, paid off.
9. Funding a vacation
Traveling can come with a steep price tag, and tapping your home’s equity could help cover the costs without having to increase your credit card debt. Even the best vacations don’t last forever, though, and home equity debt can linger for decades, so weigh your decision carefully. Is the trip worth potentially risking your house to pay for?
Pros
Home equity loans typically have lower interest rates than credit cards, which could save you money.
Cons
Putting your home on the line is an extremely risky way to finance a trip that will be over in a matter of days — and you’ll still be paying for it many years after it’s over, which could ultimately cost you more in interest.
10. Other big-ticket items
It’s possible to use your home equity for big-ticket purchases, but it doesn’t add up in many cases. Home equity loans have much longer repayment terms than auto loans, for example, resulting in lower monthly payments, but much more interest over time. Cars are also depreciating assets, meaning your car will be worth much less than you paid for it by the time you finish repaying the equity loan.
Pros
You could finance a larger purchase, like a car.
Cons
Your home’s equity isn’t worth leveraging on an expense that won’t give you a solid return. With the example of buying a car, you’ll be risking your home for an asset that will be worth less than what you paid for it by the time you’ve finished repaying the loan.
Using home equity FAQ
The amount of home equity you can borrow against depends on a number of factors, including how much the home is worth, the outstanding balance on your mortgage and your credit score. Assuming you’re well-qualified, many home equity lenders allow you to tap up to 80 percent of your equity.
As with any loan product, a home equity loan or HELOC can hurt your credit score in the short term, in part because you’re taking on more debt and potentially raising your credit utilization ratio. Over time, however, your credit score could go up as you make regular monthly payments on your home equity loan. It’s possible to get a home equity loan with bad credit, too.
It can be. You can deduct home equity loan interest if you use the funds to “buy, build or substantially improve” the home that was used to secure the loan, according to the IRS. You must itemize deductions on your tax return, and — similar to the mortgage deduction — there are limits as to how much you can deduct.
Yes. The closing costs for home equity loans and HELOCs can range from 1 percent to 5 percent of your loan amount. These can include many of the same closing costs as a typical real estate closing, such as origination, appraisal and credit report fees. HELOC lenders also often charge annual fees to keep the line open, as well as an early termination fee if you close it within three years of opening. You could also incur a charge if you decide to convert your HELOC balance to a fixed interest rate.
If you’ve just closed on a home and need cash, you can generally tap into your home equity right away. However, some lenders require borrowers to wait several months before applying for a home equity loan or HELOC. And whether there’s a waiting period or not, you’ll have to meet the lender’s eligibility requirements. These can include credit score minimums, income verification and debt-to-income (DTI) ratio maximums. Most importantly, you’ll also need at least 20 percent equity in your home to qualify, though some lenders accept 15 percent.
“I would say more than 60% of the furniture I own is vintage, upcycled, or handmade. Everything has a history, which I love,” says the designer. One case in point is the curved sectional in the living room, which, as she puts it, “screams me the loudest,” and which she thrifted and reupholstered in a House of Hackney fabric and embellished with a fringe. “I am obsessed with that fringe. There’s something about the way the light shines through it in the morning and at night,” she adds. Other novelties include decorative table lamps, accent pillows, and chandelier shades handmade by her sister, muralist and textile artist Dede Chiloiro, in the living room and bedroom.
The walls weren’t exempt from time travel. “They were too white and too new for my personal style,” says Francesca, who papered them through and through until there was no white left in sight. (Her favorite is the textured grasscloth House of Hackney wallpaper in the living room, which she says inspires the most beautiful warmth.) “What was once so sterile turned into a cozy, moody sanctuary that’s perfect for me and my chickens,” she muses. Some things, such as the natural oak floor, the living room fireplace, and the wainscoting in the dining room, were left the way they were in a deliberate effort to honor the home’s history.
