David Nevin

I'm a North County San Diego Realtor specializing in Carlsbad real estate, over 20 years of combined experience in real estate sales, business ownership, and corporate leadership. I began my career as a REALTOR® in 2004, later spending nearly a decade owning and operating a small business in Silicon Valley, before returning to residential real estate full-time. That background allows me to deliver a balanced, professional approach that is detail-oriented, communication-driven, and focused on consistent results for buyers and sellers. My family and I fell in love with North County San Diego in the early 2000s, and after years of traveling between the Bay Area and San Diego, we made Carlsbad our permanent home in 2016. We truly live the coastal lifestyle--enjoying winter sunsets near Terramar Beach, morning hikes at Calavera Hills, local farmers markets, and the relaxed seasonal rhythm that makes Carlsbad and surrounding communities such exceptional places to live. Because I'm a local homeowner and parent, I guide clients with real neighborhood insight, lifestyle knowledge, and a long-term view, not just market data. I was raised in a real estate family and grew up inside the original CitiBrokers Real Estate office, founded by my parents in the 1980s. Watching transactions unfold long before modern technology taught me the fundamentals that still matter today: building trust, advocating for clients, negotiating effectively, and managing the details that keep transactions smooth and stress-free. Those principles continue to shape how I serve clients today. Through FirstTeam Real Estate, I help clients buy and sell homes throughout Carlsbad, Encinitas, Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, La Costa, and surrounding North County San Diego neighborhoods. My approach is straightforward: high-value service, proactive communication, modern digital marketing, and guidance without pressure. Whether you're a first-time buyer, move-up buyer, real estate investor, or homeowner preparing to sell, you'll receive personalized, professional support from start to finish. North County San Diego isn't just where I work--it's where my wife and I are raising our two boys, building community, and putting down long-term roots. I'm proud to continue my family's real estate legacy here and would be honored to help you navigate your next move with confidence. If you're looking for a Carlsbad Realtor who is local, experienced, and fully committed to your success, I'm here when you're ready
