Straight advice. Clear process.

I am a San Diego County real estate broker and mortgage loan originator based in Chula Vista, with a practice built around direct advice and practical strategy. I help buyers find and purchase homes with assumable mortgages, and help sellers navigate assumption offers. The Real Estate Services page outlines the decision types I handle.

The Daily Mail featured my perspective on rising California HOA costs and what they mean for homeowners, buyers and sellers.

When you contact Blum Realty Group about a real estate or loan question, you speak directly with me.

I work best with clients who want direct answers and a clear comparison of their options. If a property, price or timing plan does not make sense, I will say so.

Also licensed in Florida; my primary focus is, and will stay, San Diego County home brokerage and California home loans.

Questions people ask before they pick up the phone.

Straight answers below -- and if yours isn't here, ask me directly.

Will I work directly with the broker?

Yes. You work directly with me on pricing, your search, negotiations, financing coordination, paperwork and the plan for closing.

What types of San Diego real estate questions can I bring first?

Start with the property, area, timing, budget, loan question, probate issue, or selling decision you need to make. A short note is enough to identify whether the next step is pricing guidance, a home search, loan timing, or a direct broker call.

Can you help with both real estate and loan timing?

I can review the real estate strategy and coordinate loan-timing questions through the proper mortgage channel when financing affects the decision. The goal is to keep the search, offer, sale, and loan timing aligned.

How is working with Blum Realty Group different from working with a larger team?

You work directly with me on the plan, communication, pricing, home search, financing coordination and negotiations. I remain your point of contact and accountable to you throughout.
