San Diego Realtor
"I work ethically, I work professionally, I work with honor for my profession and towards my clients.., there's plenty of agents out there who will work you...but I am a Realtor who serves you. Are you determined to know success? Success Happens Here!" ~ T J Nelson
I appreciate the opportunity to provide you with service, information and guidance throughout your process. My specialties include first time buyers, senior citizens and investors. I'm a certified e-Pro, short sale negotiator, foreclosures & REO's as well as traditional new home and resale opportunities. Understand it's never too early to contact a Realtor, as the process starts long before looking at potential properties. There is a pre-approval process, designing your plan & setting your budget and setting up your virtual MLS Gateway with your custom searches... that all needs to happen first. I make many recommendations with few requirements. I understand folks wish to have a certain amount of independence in their process, but I hope to remove the fear of involving a Realtor early in that process, as often times people waste their time and make avoidable mistakes by "avoiding" Realtors for fear of being sold to or pushed. I make it a pleasant experience.
If you are here and considering a purchase or sale, you needn't worry about pushy sales pressure or moving against your pace. It starts with information and education before we ever approach sales with most. The experienced buyer-seller-investor may move quicker than those first timers or first time in a long timers, but my service is customized to accommodate your goals, timeline and service needs. Read my home buying advice and home selling advice.
I have been in Real Estate since 1989. I started in property management and later performing transaction coordinator duties and marketing my mom's listings. I became a Realtor in 1999, passing my test the first time. (Not many do). My grandparents were brokers and investors, my father was a commercial agent and my mom still is a Realtor in the Bay Area. My grandmother received an award in 2003 for 50 years of service in the San Mateo County Association of Realtors at the age of 91! So yes, real estate is in my blood!
I live in UTC/La Jolla and work out of Mission Valley. So I tend to serve the "Golden Triangle" which includes Del Mar, La Jolla, Sorrento Valley, Clairemont and skirts Mira Mesa and Linda Vista areas through Mission Valley & Serra Mesa and on Downtown. A handful of my clients have purchased in Otay Mesa & Chula Vista so I have become quite familiar with those areas too. I've sold in the College area, Carlsbad, Spring Valley and Del Cerro too. I will never work an area I do not know, that won't serve you best. Count on me to be an expert where I work or to refer you to an expert where I do not work.
San Diego
San Diego, California, is truly a "city of villages". Some of its neighborhoods have their own identities and unique characteristics and are marked by official signs at there "entrance", even if they never were independent municipalities. Their boundaries are vague in some cases and often debated by the locals, but their community centers are unmistakable.
North Park
North Park is is one such community in San Diego. North Park has a definite "downtown" area, which is marked by a large sign in the middle of University Avenue near 30th Street. The sign is actually a replica of the original, which was torn down in the 1960s and replaced in 1993 when local residents realized what had been lost. Some other communities of San Diego have similar signs in their "downtown" areas. North Park has a great variety of boutique style shops, cafe's and restaurants. Craftsman and customs homes and bungalows that can date back 100+ years and command top dollar in re-sale in some cases. North Park in part is just that, The Northern and Eastern borders of Balboa Park. Other communities of San Diego near North Park are Hillcrest, University Heights, Normal Heights, Kensington, City Heights, Burlingame and South Park. The community status of Burlingame is doubtful; it is sometimes taken to be part of either South Park or North Park.
What is The Golden Triangle?
It's the UTC (University City Towne Center) Area including University City, part of La Jolla, part of Sorrento Valley and a dash of Mira Mesa-Carmel Valley & Del Mar, pending how liberal you look at the true borders. The well planned mix of residential, retail and office space, combined with it’s accessibility to the 805, 5 and 52 freeways from which it gets it's name (from the triangular shaped borders these freeways create. This area offers Golden Triangle residents, businesses, and visitors a unique environment to live and work in. This also happens to be a popular tourist area due to the major hotels, UTC Westfield Mall and the short 10 minute drive to the La Jolla Coast and Torrey Pines State Park Beach. The Golden Triangle is just 10 miles North of Downtown San Diego and a 10 minute drive to the coast.
