Looking to sell your property, buy a new home, or just need some expert real estate advice?
Exceeding clients' expectations is my passion. I am a native San Diegan, graduated from UCSB early with a B.A. in business economics and emphasis in accounting. I worked at EY LLP, for 2 years and earned my CPA license. Then I worked on Wall Street for 10+ years. I attained my real estate license in 2007, and my Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) license. I have business savvy and marketing prowess to handle all transactions. I represent buyers/sellers throughout San Diego County. I am a relocation specialist, CRS, and was the top producing individual agent for all of Windermere Homes and Estates in San Diego for 2020/2021. I have received the Circle of Excellence Award every year since inception. Although I keep my CPA and CFP® licenses active, real estate is my full time profession. I happily have to abide by 3 different codes of ethics, so you know you are working with a reputable agent. I enjoy golf, tennis, travel, and exercise. I have an amazing wife and 3 adorable kids.
Ratings & Reviews
We were actually able to buy a home in December. Chad was not only the listing agent but successfully represented both parties giving the unique times. I found him to be fair on both ends having to negotiate. All of his referrals were great as well.
We had a less than great experience with a previous real estate agent and weren’t looking forward to finding a new agent to represent us in the purchase of a home. We met Chad at an open house he was hosting, while this particular home was a little outside our price range he appeared to know all about the property and had clearly done all his research on the neighborhood. After meeting a couple of other agents in similar situations, we called Chad and discussed what we wanted. Long story short, we are really happy we met him. Through the whole buying experience (with a pretty grumpy seller) Chad kept us up to speed and always called back when he said he would, even if it was to answer a stupid question. Thanks, Chad!
STOP READING OTHER REVIEWS NOW! You’re wasting your time if you’re searching for another agent! I have personally bought and sold multiple properties with Chad and cannot recommend him enough. Chad worked tirelessly to provide us with world class service and available 24/7. Chad’s wealth of experience and knowledge is guaranteed to provide 100% satisfaction to first time buyers as well as seasoned veterans. Chad is a true professional in every sense of the word and I cannot thank him enough for everything.
Chad Basinger is the best! Attentive, detailed, thorough and listens to his Clients plans and requests. Excellent Real Estate experience.....
I had Chad helped me in purchasing my first property. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, responsible and most important, he knows the market really well. He has been here so long that he can easily tell the value and defect of a house, stop you from getting the bad ones, and direct you to the good ones. I've talked with some other agents, and I can tell the difference. I will recommend Chad to anyone I know, and I would like to work with him again when I want to purchase or sell other properties in the next couple of years.
