There is something about continually striving to be better, to always feel like there is more to be learned, that keeps Monica motivated and inspired as a real estate professional. It has always been Monica’s business practice to serve her clients with compassion, patience and supreme professionalism, and to ensure they feel supported and fully educated in every step along the way. As someone who truly loves and take pride in her work, it is Monica’s goal to have her clients walk away from their successful transaction feeling like they had a great time, they could not have done it without Monica, and they could not have partnered with a better Realtor®!
Monica began her real estate career in October of 2003, by earning her appraisal license. After two years of apprenticing with a local and established appraiser, she obtained her broker’s license in 2005, and have most recently welcomed a transition to Compass in 2019.
After 19 years of working as a real estate professional, Monica has found incredible value and priceless tools in the way both appraising and sales cross-complement each other. When assisting clients buy/sell real estate, Monica’s appraisal background gives her crucial understanding and true ability to analyze value, neighborhood trends and comparable sales. When Monica appraised properties, her sales background gave her the insight to understand what buyers and sellers were looking for, what they were willing to pay/sell for, and how they react to and value features in a property. Monica is grateful that these two specialties have allowed her to continually improve and evolve her skills, with the ultimate goal of serving her clients even better.
In 2015 Monica served as the President for the Scenic Coast Association of Realtors® and was a voting member on the Assessment Appeals Board for SLO County from 2013 - 2019. Monica was also honored with the Realtor® of the Year award in 2012, by the Scenic Coast Association of Realtors®.
When she is not working, Monica loves living in Los Osos with her husband and son, spending quality time with family and close friends, volunteering, practicing yoga, swimming, camping, traveling the world, and dancing!
