While it is possible to shop on your own for a house in The Village, it is worth noting that typically the real estate deals on the finest properties are found through a proactive and knowledgeable real estate agent. La Jolla has an ordinance regulating the use of real estate for sale signs (have you ever noticed that real estate posts in the front yard of La Jolla properties are pretty much non-existent?!?)
This history dates back to the early 1900's and is a closeted part of La Jolla that begs to be forgotten. Read more about that HERE. This issue is a blog story in itself!
We are a team of Realtors in the Village and well-connected with all the channels that residential properties are usually found on, meaning that we are the first to learn about new listings (sometimes referred to as pocket listings). This information network allows me to discover the homes that are most likely to meet your criteria.
Competition is likely to increase for desirable properties over the coming year, making it harder and harder to find the right home for the right price.

When you are selling or buying your home you don't want to hire just anyone! Hiring the wrong Realtor is one of the biggest mistakes people make. While being able to sell your property for the highest market value with the least inconvenience to your lifestyle, we also expect the experience of selling your home to be a positive memorable one. Part of what I expect is you to be comfortable referring your friends and family because you were completely satisfied and enjoyed working with us.
I can honestly say there are no other Realtors or Real Estate Teams who are providing the level of online exposure found here through the utilization of proper search engine optimization (SEO) and social media integration! When selling your home, internet marketing is a crucial aspect of getting a property sold and happens to be one of our specialties.
Your property will be found in all the top places that most buyer's would be searching for La Jolla homes for sale, including this website which is highly indexed by Google and other search engines. The idea of great real estate marketing is imperative as signage is not allowed in your yard! The outdated "Post & Pray Method on the multiple listing service (MLS)" doesn't work anymore and isn't enough to sell your home.
Additional things that help us stand out include exceptional professional photography, vivid descriptions of the best features of your home, along with video tour that will be found on YouTube, Realtor.com, Zillow, Juwai and the MLS. We also partner with high-end companies in the Village to feature properties weekly.
