San Diego County real estate

Who I work with
Advice built around your situation
Inherited property
Sell, rent, keep, or a combination. We compare the pros and cons of each, and bring in the right people, such as a CPA or estate attorney, when the situation calls for it.
Selling a home
Pricing, prep, and timing decided with your net proceeds in mind. Before listing, we sort out what is worth fixing, what to leave alone, and what the numbers actually look like at closing.
Moving up
Buying and selling at the same time comes down to sequencing. We map out financing, contingencies, and timing so you are not rushed into a purchase or carrying two payments longer than you have to.
Investing and rentals
Long-term rentals, short-term rentals, and properties with upside. The analysis covers cash flow, condition, local rules, financing, and resale, not just whether the deal can close.
