About Chad Basinger REALTOR, CPA, CFP,

REALTOR, CPA, CFP, CRS (17 years experience). Specialties: Buyer's agent, Listing agent, Relocation, Short-Sale. First and foremost, I strive to be the very best at every thing I do. As a business professional involved in buying and selling real estate, exceeding my clients' expectations is paramount to my business model. I grew up surrounded by real estate with my mom being in the business for over 50 years and being in the top 1% of agents nationwide. I have a business background, having graduated from UC Santa Barbara early with a bachelors of arts with an emphasis in accounting. I worked at the largest accounting firm in the world, Ernst and Young, for 2 years where I earned my CPA license (still active.) From there, I worked on Wall Street for over 10 years, where I honed my negotiating skills which are critical in handling real estate transactions. From here, I attained my real estate license as well as my Certified Financial Planner Certificate. With buying and selling a home being such a major financial event, it is of the utmost importance to work with a professional that understands the numbers involved in the transaction. Making sure it makes financial sense is much more important than merely being a part of the transaction. I have the business savvy and marketing prowess to handle any and all transactions. I am a native San Diegan and I have represented buyers and sellers throughout San Diego county at various price points and would be more than happy to discuss your situation with you and provide you with the utmost care you deserve.

Amazing Experience! Chad is the best! I honestly can't imagine buying our first home without him. He made everything so much easier, cutting through all the complexity. Not only super professional, but also incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. It's clear he knows what he's doing and has a ton of experience. We always felt taken care of, and he was on top of everything all the time! It was a pleasure working with him, and I'll definitely reach out when we're ready to buy again. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home 100%!

It was a pleasure working with Chad! He is very knowledgeable and professional. Chad took the time to explain the whole process from the beginning and was always available to answer my questions. Also, he had my best interest in mind and went and above and beyond to ensure I got the best possible deal. He is very detail oriented and pointed out maintenance issues when we toured houses together. I was very happy that I had Chad as my agent on my quest to find my new home!

We had the pleasure of working with Chad as our real estate agent, and we couldnt be happier with the experience. As first-time homebuyers, we were navigating unfamiliar territory, but Chad made the process so smooth and stress-free. He was incredibly hardworking, always going above and beyond to ensure we found the perfect home. More importantly, he was able to successfully negotiate with the seller concessions for significant repairs that had to be done to protect our investment. His knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and commitment to our needs were truly impressive. Chad was always available to answer our questions and provided invaluable guidance every step of the way. If youre looking for a real estate agent who genuinely cares and will work tirelessly for your, we highly recommend Chad Basinger.

Answered Questions

When would I need to sell to avoid paying capital gains?

Hello Danielle, It is great to see you being proactive and considering tax ramifications. I am a REALTOR, who also has an active CPA license and CFP certificate. When it comes to capital gains taxes and real estate, as long as you have lived there for 2 of the last 5 years, you will be able to take advantage of the $250,000 capital gains exemption amount. In this case, your gains are well below the 250K amount, so would not have any capital gains taxes at this stage. To answer your question regardless of this, the 2 out of 5 year requirement would be met as long as you close on that property in 2027 (specific date depends on when you moved out of it). Good luck!
