Home Valuation

What's your home actually worth?

Skip the automated Zestimate guesswork. I'll personally research your property and the current market and give you a real number — free, no obligation.

Step 1

Tell me about your property

Share the address and a few details below — takes about a minute.

Step 2

I run the comps

I pull recent sales and active listings in your neighborhood and build a real comparative market analysis — not an automated guess.

Step 3

We talk it through

I'll walk you through the number personally, with no obligation, so you understand exactly what's driving it.

What does it actually cost to sell a home in Newport Beach?

The main costs are agent commission, title and escrow fees, and California's county/city transfer taxes — the exact commission split between listing and buyer's agents is negotiated per transaction, not a fixed industry rate. On top of that, typical sellers budget for escrow and title fees (commonly in the low single-digit percent of sale price), plus any repairs or credits negotiated with the buyer. On a coastal Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, or Corona del Mar property, pricing strategy and timing usually move the final number far more than any of these fees do. I walk every seller through the real, itemized cost breakdown for their specific property before we list — request a valuation below and I'll include it.
