About

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

Timothy

Unmatched Realtor. Our experience with Chad was unbelievable. Throughout the flux in the market and interest rates, Chad worked with my wife and I through the pandemic, seamlessly coordinating with listing agents during the challenges that the pandemic brought. My wife and I are admittedly very particular regarding the home we wanted to buy. Chad was also extremely efficient with the requirements of funding a VA loan. We ended up in the perfect house that we are currently enjoying very much.

We have been working with Chad for years and highly recommend him. We have worked with Chad for many years and over those years have had many transactions. The latest was an ask of Chad to find a home for my Daughter and her family. This ask was a year ago. They were living on the CA Central Coast and had been wanting to move closer to the family here in San Diego North County. The home we were looking to purchase for them needed to be unique and close to us so the ask was going to be very challenging and we knew could take some time. Out of the blue Chad called me to say he found what he thought was the home that met everything we were looking for. He met us at the property that day and it was definitely the one. We put in our offer that night and were successful in closing on the home a month later with my Daughter and her family moving in two days after closing. Having them close to us has brought unimaginable joy to our entire family. We are so lucky to have someone like Chad......

The best in northeast SD! My family moved down to San Diego back in 2018 and we weren’t sure how long we’d stay. We fell in love with SD and were ready to start the buying process in 2023. After doing research on agents in the NE SD area (Poway, RB, PQ), I met with Chad for coffee to discuss our plans and all things real estate. It was great to know he grew up in Rancho Bernardo, had extensive knowledge of the various neighborhoods, and was well connected. He met my wife and kids a couple weeks later, and after my wife gave the thumbs up based on his laid back and friendly approach, we decided to work together for our purchase. Buying a house in 2023 is far from an easy task, but Chad made it as smooth as possible. I also appreciated that he never tried to take an easy way or cut any corners. Even if it was fairly obvious we weren’t going to get a place based on the price we were willing to pay, he never shied away from meeting us and writing up an offer to give us a chance....

David and Chanon

Chad is the best! After consulting with several agents, a friend highly recommended Chad, and he proved to be the perfect fit for our family. He represented us in three home sales and expertly guided us through some challenging situations. Chad's sense of urgency and availability around the clock were invaluable throughout the process. Chad's deep knowledge of the local market and step-by-step guidance through the buying process instilled confidence in our decisions. His professionalism and attention to detail were exceptional, and he was consistently patient and supportive. Chad truly understood our needs and never pressured us; we always felt he had our best interests at heart. He was always ready to answer our questions and kept us updated in a timely manner, making sure we were never left uninformed. His exceptional communication skills and professional demeanor made the experience smooth and even enjoyable at times. We wholeheartedly recommend Chad for his outstanding service.

Daniel and Kiersten

Excellent representation for first time home buyers. We had been searching for a new home for about 4 months before meeting Chad and were unable to find a suitable agent. Chad took the time to know us as clients and took our concerns and preferences into consideration before recommending homes. We closed on a new home within 3 months of partnering with Chad and could not be happier with the advocation he provided. We have recommended Chad to a few of our friends, and, should the need arise, would be delighted to work with him again!
