carolinerander_sandiegorealtor This is one of the most common questions home sellers have: What are the best updates to make before selling for the most return? It really depends on each home but this is one area that I consistently recommend spending a bit of time on! 🏡 Watch to find out! #homesellertips #homesellingadvice #sandiegohomesellers #firsttimehomeseller #sandiegorealtor #tidbittuesdaywithcaroline

carolinerander_sandiegorealtor 🌅 Hiking in the Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado is something I will remember for a very long time. The vast beauty, the breathtaking scenery, but most of all the hiking before sunrise. There was something incredible about watching the sun rise amid the pine trees in the middle of the mountains and hike for hours after that while the world slowly woke up. The town of Estes Park just outside is absolutely adorable! There were elk and deer just roaming around 🦌 One thing I would do differently is wear something a bit warmer than a pair of shorts at 12,000 ft elevation. Somehow I didn’t think it would be so cold up there in July, but turns out there’s a reason why those mountains are still snow capped 🤪 #rockymountainnationalpark #rockymountains #coloradohiking #estespark #lovehiking

carolinerander_sandiegorealtor Sedona, you were magical. I’m definitely a believer in the grounding energies over there. Feeling so peaceful.. I’ll definitely be back 🤍

carolinerander_sandiegorealtor Such a privilege to help my homebuyer S.C. go through the process of buying a home A-Z! He was referred to me by friends and is probably one of my most analytical, thorough, detail oriented clients (also an engineer 🤓) and I loved spending all the extra time answering his questions, concerns, negotiating on his behalf, and really identifying critical vs common items so he had the best outcome! He got his new home well below asking with some awesome perks on top! 🌟 I’m once again reminded just how much people’s home buying and selling experience depends on the Realtor they choose. What we decide to do, say, and the level of hard work and expertise is totally left up to us, so choose wisely! 😇 #lovemyjob #sandiegohomebuyers #sandiegorealtor #realtorofinstagram #realtor #sandiego #universitycity #realestateengineer #soldwithlove

carolinerander_sandiegorealtor 🚨 Are all the price reductions indicative of a looming crash? Here’s what’s REALLY happening in the market 👇 Just because you’re seeing price cuts doesn’t mean home values are tanking. ➡️ A price reduction = the list price was too high to begin with. ➡️ A true price drop = a home sells for less than the last comparable sale. What I’m seeing in San Diego right now is more price corrections, not a crash. This market is leveling, not falling. That’s a huge difference for both buyers and sellers to understand. 📲 DM me with any questions! #sandiegorealestate #marketupdate #realestateeducation #yoursandiegorealtor #realestateupdate #housingmarketupdate

carolinerander_sandiegorealtor Going on vacation? Don’t forget THIS one tip that could save you thousands 💦🏠 Most people pack the suitcases, lock the doors but forget one of the most important home protection moves before leaving: ✅ Turn off your main water valve! A single hidden leak can flood your home while you’re gone and trust me, it happens more often than you think. I’ve been there! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Save this, share it, and tag a friend who’s traveling soon. Because the best vacations are the ones you don’t come home to water damage!! #summertraveltips #homeownerhacks #realestatetips #preventwaterdamage #sandiegorealestate #homesafetytips #waterdamageprevention

carolinerander_sandiegorealtor 🤍🤍Heart is so full from taking the girls to Montreal after a 7+ year hiatus. The memories, yummy food, showing the girls where mommy grew up, seeing family and my sweet 97 year old grandma who lives with Alzheimer’s (and yet somehow recognized my voice after all those years 🥹) was incredibly healing and special. We will be back again soon. So thankful for the core memories 💖🇨🇦

carolinerander_sandiegorealtor ✨ Honored and grateful! ✨ When I began my real estate journey, I never imagined I’d be named to the RealTrends Verified Top 1.5% National list for multiple years in a row, let alone when I was a little girl displaced by war with huge dreams and no idea how to get there. I’m incredibly honored to be recognized again in 2025! Throughout this journey, mentors and coaches have reminded me how important it is to pause and celebrate the wins. So today, I’m taking that moment. I’m reflecting on the “why” behind every open house, every late night, every call returned, and every heart-to-heart conversation with a client who just needed to feel heard. And what I feel most is gratitude 🤍 Leaving behind a successful corporate career to pursue real estate 9 years ago was a leap of faith. I led with curiosity and a deep commitment to showing up fully for my community and the belief that a home is so much more than four walls. It’s where life happens! To my incredible clients who chose me, my friends who referred me, my mentors who believed in me, my trusted partners who help bring my visions to life, and the inspiring community of coaches and professionals who lift me higher: thank you 🙏🏻 Real estate is personal. It’s emotional. And I wouldn’t want it any other way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💖 Caroline
