SOLD in Point Loma ✨

This one was a journey—after 2 failed escrows, we regrouped, came back with a new strategy, and ended up with multiple offers + a smooth closing 🙌

So grateful for clients who trust the process 💛

Now onto helping them buy their first single-family home as newlyweds 🏡
And yes… we met because I bought a blender from them on Facebook Marketplace 😂

You truly never know where relationships start

✨ JUST SOLD | Downtown Marina District ✨

This one is extra special 🤍

My good friends weren’t even actively looking… but when I found an off-market opportunity through Compass Private Exclusive, they knew it was the one.
✔️ Secured $100,000 below comps
✔️ Instant equity
✔️ Turned their current condo into a rental
That’s how you start building a real estate portfolio 👏

Proof that the best deals aren’t always online—and timing + strategy makes all the difference.

So excited for you guys!! 🥂and so glad we are neighbors again with only the city’s oldest park separating us 🥰

📩 Thinking about buying (even casually)? DM me—opportunities like this exist!

More buyers are starting to take a closer look at adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) right now — and it may make sense for you. 🤔

They typically come with a lower initial rate, which can help make a home purchase more affordable in today’s market. 🙌🙌🙌

But here’s the part that matters: that lower rate is temporary.

After the initial period, your rate (and your monthly payment) can adjust.

So, it’s not about whether an ARM is good or bad. It’s about whether it fits your long-term plan.

If you’re trying to figure out what you can comfortably afford, it’s worth having a conversation with a trusted lender or financial advisor to walk through your options and see what makes the most sense for you.

✨ Big news! ✨

I’m so honored to be named one of the Top 50 Residential Real Estate Leaders of Influence in 2026 by the San Diego Business Journal — for the second year in a row!

This recognition is especially meaningful because it reflects what matters most to me: helping my clients WIN.

🏡 Including helping buyers secure $500,000+ in down payment assistance to purchase their homes.

Here’s what that means for you:
✔️ Access to programs most buyers don’t even know exist
✔️ A strategic approach to stand out in today’s market
✔️ Strong relationships that open doors
✔️ Creative solutions to get you into a home

At the end of the day, it’s not about the award — it’s about helping you build wealth, stability, and opportunity through real estate.

If you’ve been thinking about buying, selling, or want to explore down payment assistance… let’s talk 💬

📩 DM me “HOME” and I’ll send you your options

💰 Thinking about selling your home? Don’t forget the tax benefits that could save you thousands:
✔️ Home Improvements – Major upgrades (like kitchens, bathrooms, additions) can increase your cost basis and reduce capital gains
✔️ Repairs – Certain pre-sale repairs may be deductible if tied to the sale
✔️ Selling Costs – Agent commissions, escrow, staging, and marketing fees can often be deducted
✔️ Property Taxes – Still deductible for the time you owned the home that year
✔️ Mortgage Interest – Deductible up until the date you sell
✔️ Capital Gains Exclusion – You may exclude up to $250K (single) or $500K (married) in profit 🏡

Every situation is different, but understanding these can make a BIG difference in your net proceeds.

📩 Thinking about selling? I’m happy to help you maximize your return.
