I'm Loren Sanders, and I'm here to help.

For over 34 years, I've helped hundreds of San Diego homeowners navigate the emotional and financial complexities of downsizing. I understand the challenges you're facing, and I'm here to provide the clarity and guidance you need to make your next move the best one yet.

Don't Let Confusion Cost You Your Future.

The process of downsizing is filled with complexity and uncertainty. From navigating Proposition 19 to timing the market, one wrong move can cost you tens of thousands of dollars and derail your plans for a secure future. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Financial Uncertainty

"How much will I actually pocket from the sale?" You see the high asking prices, but what about closing costs, repairs, and taxes? The fear of the unknown can be paralyzing.

Tax Traps

"Can I keep my low property tax rate?" You've enjoyed decades of tax savings. Will downsizing trigger a massive reassessment and erase your financial gains?

Timing Turmoil

"How do I sell and buy without being left in limbo?" The timing feels impossible. Do you sell first and risk homelessness? Or buy first and carry two mortgages?

Missing Out on the Perfect Home

The right-sized home in the perfect location is waiting for you, but it won't wait forever.

Paying More in Taxes

What Our Clients Say

"Loren was a fabulous help when we decided to downsize from our family home. We had lived there for 38 years. He helped us find just the right buyer in record time, and also found movers, repair men and advised us on getting a new loan. I highly recommend Loren."

Glee Thomson

Downsized After 38 Years

"Loren Sanders is the best. After several attempts, he persisted and found the right home for us at Verrazano. Loren is a consummate professional who stayed with us during the whole process of buying."

Patrick Sweeney

Buyer, Verrazano

"We had to buy and sell two properties very quickly in Carlsbad and Loren made it happen, nearly setting a record on our sale. No nonsense, closed a week early. Nailed it."
