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

Joe and Allison

Chad is really an amazing person and even more amazing agent. He helped my husband and I buy a home, in a bit of an odd situation. My husband is in the US Marine Corps and at the time we were living in North Carolina knowing that we had orders to Ca. I was able to come to Ca for about 2 weeks to hunt for a home. It is here that I met Chad. Chad went above and beyond his duty for us! He showed me house after house until we found...the one. After finding the one, there were some tough moments, as I had to go back to NC. At no time did a question go without an answer, he responded by text and email within 10mins after! He really worked for us; he fought for our home right along side us. This man knows people...he knows how to make a client and how to keep a happy client. Without Chad, this experience would not have been the same. So in short YES I would recommend Chad to everybody looking for a home. Thank you so very much Chad.

Debbie

Absolutely spectacular service and expertise! As for savvy marketing skills, I have never before seen brochures, online virtual tours and photos do a property that much justice. My property sold within minutes of listing, and we continued to receive multiple offers above the asking price. We ultimately achieved the highest price per square foot seen in the area in the last 3 years. Throughout the process, Chad always went the extra mile to make me feel comfortable. When an evil appraiser almost thwarted the deal, Chad made sure my voice was heard, and went so far as soliciting the buyer’s agent to collectively contest the appraisal. Then when I questioned aspects of the inspection, Chad worked with me to understand and efficiently resolve each issue. Even after the sale, he provided copies of all pertinent data/forms on a handy USB. And finally, he knows the difference between a mean and a median, and who wouldn’t love that? I could not be happier.

Russ and Jayne

Chad Basinger served as our buyers agent and his assistance was absolutely phenomenal. We were nervous first time buyers, and he patiently guided us through each and every step (some times several times through the same step). He helped us find our dream property in our dream location and we closed within 22 days! We highly recommend Mr. Basinger for any and all of your real estate needs.

Michael and Stephanie

Almost exactly 4 years after buying our home with Chad, we recently sold that home and bought another. We had no hesitation in using Chad again, and he expertly guided us through the process on both transactions. Neither were straightforward for a variety of reasons, but Chad was excellent throughout. He helped address any number of issues and was available at all times. I've heard a lot of complaints from friends about problems getting hold of their realtor, but Chad was exactly the opposite, often following up without even being asked. Not only is Chad an excellent realtor, he's a great guy who will do whatever it takes to get you the best deal for your family. If you're looking for someone who's willing to go above and beyond, I can't recommend Chad enough.

Meghan

We can't say enough good things about Chad. He was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and honest. He made us feel like we were the only people he was working with. If we had a question, he had an answer...and he always got back us quickly. He helped us sell our home and find a new home quickly. We were able to move out of the old home and right into the new one without a problem. The whole process of buying/selling a home can be stressful, so we felt very lucky to find Chad.
