About
Hi, I'm Karlee VanDyke. I've lived in both Poway Unified School District communities and coastal San Diego, so I don't just sell in these areas — I know them from the inside, as a resident, a parent, and a neighbor. I come from a large family with deep local roots, and I built my business the same way: relationships first, always.

Before real estate, I owned a Pilates studio for 15 years. Running a small business for that long teaches you how to actually take care of people — and how to keep them coming back. I'm also a half-empty nester now, which means I understand both sides of a family's housing journey, from growing into a home to letting one go.

I've closed 100+ homes and over $100M in sales volume. I specialize in the $2.5M–$4M luxury market, and a large share of my business is relocation clients, absentee sellers, and probate sales. I've helped clients navigate the emotional and logistical complexity of a probate transaction, managed sales for owners who live out of state, and helped people move not just across town but across the country.

I have deep roots in the tech sector and am highly versed in relocation for tech and medical professionals moving to San Diego — I understand the timelines, the stakes, and the pace these moves require.

I'm a Compass agent with a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES) designation, giving me the range to guide everything from a first move-up buyer to a senior client navigating a major life transition.

My recognitions include Real Trends Verified Top 1.5% nationally, SDAR Circle of Excellence Platinum, San Diego Real Producers Top 100 Agents, and a San Diego Real Producers Rising Star award. I've also served on the Agent Board of Advisors for a team doing $1B in annual sales.

I've built strong referral relationships with agents across the country, and the reason those relationships keep going is simple: I treat every client with the same care I'd want for my own family. That's why so many of those agents continue sending me their clients.

For sellers, I offer a concierge program: 0% financing to cover updates and repairs needed to get a home market-ready, plus a complimentary home warranty. For buyers, I provide access to private, exclusive listings that never hit the open market.

If you send me a referral, I will take great care of your client — and I'll make sure you look good for sending them my way.

Karlee and her team at the Whissell Beer Group are the pro’s of the pro’s. Their team is consistent and the experience is smooth. Can’t recommend them enough!

My experience working with Karlee was flawless. She is patient, extremely knowledgeable and thorough. As a first time home buyer, these were all very valuable traits for my realtor to have. I can’t recommend her highly enough and you should feel at ease knowing you are in good hands if Karlee is spearheading your home buying journey.

My husband and I just got married in June and have been renting in Solana Beach since April 2024. We fell in love with this area but never thought we would be able to afford or find a home we loved west of the 5 (my husband would say I'm picky :)). One day my husband went on Zillow and we said why not, let's go look at houses and see what's out there. We got connected to Karlee almost immediately through Zillow. She took the time to call and send a video assuring us she would help us find our perfect spot, without being pushy or salesy. She is extremely genuine, knowledgable, and creative with her approach with clients and listings. She pointed out reasons why we may not like the first home we saw, and within 24 hours sent us the home we are now in today. We were the first ones in, and Karlee helped us put in an offer quickly. Her network in the area is super impressive. She knew exactly who we needed to impress, what we needed to put on the table, and navigated a competitive negotiation for us to ultimately win us our house. Karlee's calm, intelligent, patient, yet bold demeanor was key to the deal. She's a great communicator, and spelled everything out for us in a way that we could understand as first time home buyers. To top if off, she had our best interest at heart the entire process, always trying to find ways to save us money, counter with confidence, and look out for potential roadblocks so we could stand our own. Fast forward 16 days later, we closed on our house, she celebrated with us and gifted us with a beautiful Christmas wreath and bottle of fancy Champagne and sealed the deal with a warm hug. 10/10 experience from start to finish. I would recommend Karlee to EVERYONE IN THE WORLD, and specifically San Diego area to help you find your perfect home.
