About Hope Ranch Real Estate

Once dubbed ‘The Playground of the World,’ Hope Ranch is a rare, one-of-a-kind enclave that we’ve proudly called home for over 20 years as your trusted Hope Ranch Real Estate agents. Picturesque, oak-filled roads wind through the Pacific hillside, with each twist and turn offering unique views of the Pacific Ocean.

  • A thriving community offering something for everyone of all ages
  • One of the rare remaining horse communities with over 25 miles of maicured horse and walking trails
  • Private beach access with “surf” storage, swim dock and bathrooms.
  • Tennis Courts
  • Varying architectural styles range from traditional mid-century ranches and Mediterranean hilltop villas to luxurious ocean-front estates

As Hope Ranch real estate agents, we love educating our clients about the unique nuances and different neighborhoods within the ranch. We take pride in personally guiding them through the scenic roads and showcasing the area’s diverse microclimates.

Our Expertise as Hope Ranch Real Estate Agents

As the top real estate team in Hope Ranch, we love educating our clients about buying and selling in this close-knit seaside community.

  • Our team has been selling real estate along the southern California coast for over 30 years
  • In 2002 we moved to Hope Ranch from Pacific Palisades
  • As long-time residents and members of La Cumbre Country Club, we know the area intimately

Not only do our very discerning clientele become long-term repeat customers, but they also refer us to their friends and more importantly trust us to represent their family members. In addition, we are the realtors of choice for our peers. They, like our clients, trust us with off-market listings knowing full well that when we are called upon to find or sell a property, we will have the inside scoop. We are not only the trusted go-to real estate agents for Hope Ranch but our reputation for fairness and confidentiality is known throughout the Santa Barbara area.

Buying or Selling – Choosing the Right Realtor

Over the last 30 years, our average buyer and seller representation has been closely split at 60% sellers/40% buyers. Most top agents represent sellers at 70-80%. 

These statistics are crucial when selecting an agent. In fact, you want realtors who frequently represent both sides of the transaction, as this makes finding the right home or buyer easier and provides valuable insights into home trends and market demands from both perspectives.

  • Because we work with buyers day-in and day-out, it is second nature to help identify the needs of a buyer during a showing of one of our listings. We are quick to identify objections and find opportunities as we personally tour our listings with prospective buyers.
  • We are full service listing agents and are present for every showing, unlike our competition, who many times have their assistants do the showings. Our team of photographers, stagers, repair people and landscapers make the listing transition easy.

Beyond Real Estate

Honesty, trust, and integrity:

  • Our buyers know that we always have their back. It’s not unusual for us to try to talk them out of a purchase if we feel it is counterintuitive to what they have said they wanted.
  • Our sellers know we have a vast nationwide network and our diligence in vetting prospective buyers will ensure that each property is exposed and represented in the highest light both visually and professionally. 

Our team of photographers, stagers and repair people make the listing transition easy. We help your buyers connect to local businesses and introduce them to the lifestyle of La Cumbre Country Club where we are members.

As Hope Ranch real estate agents, we make it a priority to answer every phone call and ensure that every buyer is pre-qualified. We also take the time to personally drive buyers through the private access gates to the Hope Ranch beach and point out the serene, bucolic trails that wind throughout the community.

Our team is here to help you navigate all things in the Hope Ranch and Santa Barbara area – with unparalleled confidentiality, honesty, transparency, and communication. Oh, and we guarantee that it will be a good time so contact us!
