Leslie Ratliff
I am a lifelong San Diego resident and have lived across the county from Santee, Chula Vista, Alpine, La Mesa and El Cajon. As an agent who is an expert in the local area, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling San Diego real estate.
I offer experience in a variety of different markets and my strengths include diplomacy, excellent people skills, first rate negotiation, attention to detail, and a passion for real estate. I offer expert guidance allowing you to focus on other important aspects of your life so you can enjoy peace of mind when it comes to your real estate transaction.
Living in San Diego has given me many opportunities to do what I love including hiking and camping. I am active in my church and community and enjoy raising Guide Dogs for the Blind, traveling, and most importantly spending time with family and friends. As an award winning agent my client’s goals and interest are my first priority. I am eager to serve you. Here are some of the things I can do for you:
Find Your Next Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home
Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.
Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.
Testimonials
"Our daughter is active duty Navy and stationed in San Diego. She is also a first-time homebuyer. She started her home search about 6 months ago in a booming real estate market. We have a large real estate team in Georgia and very familiar with the nature of the business and held high standards for the agent we were willing to work with. After an intensive search online and interviewing of other agents, we found Leslie. Her knowledge of the market and level of professionalism was bar none. We assumed there would be multiple offer situations given the market, but Leslie's proven sales record showed us that she could win and she did. But more importantly to us, she treated our daughter as if she was her own. She cared about the process and procedure, the location of her home, and she also cared about the resale value in the future. If you are looking for a phenomenal agent in the San Diego area, choose Leslie Ratliff. "

"Leslie Ratliff is fabulous! She is professional, punctual, organized, intelligent and friendly. She sold our house in less than two months, held several open houses, and personally come to our home with all paperwork. More than once she went way beyond what an average agent would do. Selling a home is a little stressful, but Leslie always came in with a smile and positive attitude. I highly recommend Leslie for any of your real estate needs!"
