Beyond Local Real Estate

This one took us a couple of months to get here and WOW 🤩 I’m just so excited.

When my clients bought 2016 W West Wind in 2020, it was a stretch for them at the time. But they had a vision. They took the leap, made it their home, and now that same home is helping get them into their next home and next chapter in life.

Over the last couple of months, we rolled up our sleeves and got to work. Renovations, new bathrooms, flooring, repairs, cleaning, decluttering, staging, marketing and about a million little details in between.

And after three days of busy open houses this weekend, SHE WAS SHOWING OFF. ✨

I’m so proud of my clients and what we accomplished together. Erin for being right there with me on the marketing, door knocking, open houses and all the moving pieces. Meghan for styling her like the queen she is. And my clients for trusting us to see the vision through.

This is my why. My people are my why.

Getting to be part of the stretch, the work, the growth and then watching it all come full circle into their next chapter is what I love most about this job. I’m so grateful to be trusted to help make it all happen. 🤍

And now 2016 W West Wind is ready for her next chapter too.

This home was originally listed at $1,575,000…
we closed at $1,420,000 🤯

Such a win.

Congratulations to my client on her very first home 🤍

We met sitting next to each other during COVID, both with our first babies… masks on, not even knowing what the other looked like.

I’ve looked up to ever since. She’s a mom of two and absolutely crushing life.

Having her trust me to help her buy this home was really special. It’s not every day you get to work with someone who truly inspires you in so many ways, especially in motherhood.

I can’t wait to see what she does with this space. I already know it’s going to be so good.

So happy for her and her girls… the best memories are ahead 🤍🏡

Two services under one umbrella.
Real estate + design.

One shared obsession: our clients.

Doing what we do best, together. Elevating the experience, protecting your investment, and making the entire process feel aligned from start to finish.

It’s not just buying or selling.
It’s not just making it pretty.

It’s strategy and vision working side by side.

Clients first. Always. 🌴

For our next Table Talk Thursday, we’re excited to invite you to join us with Angela Salley, owner, architect, and designer at Third Sketch Studios, for a conversation on professional brevity.

We’ll talk about how saying less, more intentionally, leads to clearer communication, stronger authority, and better use of everyone’s time. Practical tools, real-world strategies, and a fresh way to think about how we show up in our work.

If you want your communication to be sharper, more confident, and more effective, this one’s for you.

Table Talk Thursday
February 12 | 10–11a
Dick Church’s, Costa Mesa

Real Estate Redesigned

01/15/2026

Hey! It’s me.

Hi, I’m Katie.
I’m the realtor and founder of Beyond Local Real Estate & Design, mom to a 5.5-year-old and a 3.5-year-old, married to my best friend, and proud to call Costa Mesa home. We live the Southern California lifestyle and are deeply connected to this community.

I have over 13 years of experience in real estate and have helped hundreds of clients buy and sell hundreds of properties. Along the way, I’ve had the privilege of guiding people through life-changing moments—first homes, growing families, fresh starts, and big transitions.

I was born and raised in Orange County and have lived throughout it. I know these neighborhoods, markets, and micro-pockets inside and out, and that local expertise shows up in how I advocate, negotiate, and protect my clients.

I’m not just here to open doors or write offers. I’m a strategist, a straight-shooter, and a steady presence when decisions feel big. Beyond Local was built on relationships, trust, and a true clients-first approach, with a deep commitment to giving back to the community we love.

In 2025, Beyond Local evolved, and we were able to combine real estate and design under one roof—creating a more thoughtful, supported experience for our clients.

With Beyond Local—and with me—you’ll always be taken care of. No matter what.
If you’re buying, selling, or sending someone you care about my way, I promise to show up fully.

This is home. This is the work. And I’m really glad you’re here.
