It takes a Village!! In addition to representing Buyers and Sellers with their real estate goals for over 20 years, my side passion is fundraising, connecting people and being a resource. Last month, agents I work with at Village Properties along with community businesses and individuals raised over $100K for the local area teachers in Santa Barbara! So proud to serve for the last many years on this very special and unique non-profit founded by Village Properties owner Renee Grubb.

The nonprofit Teacher’s Fund surpassed its fundraising goal during its annual Back to School Supplies Drive this year, raising more than $100,000 to buy classroom materials for Santa Barbara–area educators.

Do you have a favorite Montecito neighborhood? Could it be on Cold Springs? Maybe something closer to the beach? Or how about a private mountain retreat? Well, our slice of paradise has all that and more!

When we say “Montecito” nowadays, that word carries a lot more weight to those outside our realm than it did five years ago. Before the Rosewood at Miramar caught the eye of L.A., and before we all knew the term “working remotely.”
