Chad Basinger REALTOR, CPA, CFP,

REALTOR, CPA, CFP, CRS (18 years experience). Specialties: Buyer's agent, Listing agent, Relocation, Short-Sale. I don't just strive for excellence--I expect it. As a San Diego native with a lifelong connection to real estate, my mission is simple: deliver exceptional results with unmatched professionalism and care. Real estate runs in my blood--my mother spent over 50 years in the business and ranked in the top 1% of agents nationwide. I built on that foundation with a degree in business economics (emphasis in accounting) from UC Santa Barbara, followed by two years at Ernst & Young, where I earned my CPA license--still active today. From there, I spent over a decade on Wall Street as a professional equity options trader, sharpening my negotiation skills in one of the most competitive environments in the world. Now, as a licensed REALTOR® and Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), I bring a financial lens to every transaction--ensuring that buying or selling a home isn't just emotional, but strategically sound. This isn't about sales--it's about smart decisions. Whether you're buying your dream home or maximizing a return, I bring the business acumen, financial insight, and marketing firepower to deliver a seamless, white-glove experience from start to finish. I've yet to meet another San Diego native who is a CPA, CFP®, and full-time REALTOR®. More importantly, I treat every client like family--with transparency, dedication, and results-driven service that doesn't stop at closing. Let's connect--and let's get you where you want to go, with confidence.
