What Military Families Say
Real experiences from military families who bought in La Jolla with our MRP-certified team
"La Jolla seemed out of reach, but Dane showed us how to leverage our O-5 BAH plus savings for a beautiful home in Bird Rock. The schools and beach access are worth it!"
CDR Michael H.
Navy, Naval Base San Diego
"We wanted La Jolla schools for our kids. Dane helped us find a condo in UTC that technically counts as La Jolla Unified. Smart strategy that saved us $500K!"
MAJ Lisa K.
