I’m Carly Dorendorf. I am a wife. Mom. Native San Diegan. Lover of interior design. Hater of mustard. I live, eat, breathe and sleep Real Estate! Over the past 9+ years, I have been fully committed to my real estate career. My clients have been a mix of people looking to buy and sell. It’s been an honor to help each and every one of them meet their real estate goals. Why am I a real estate agent? At 22 years old I purchased my first home with my then fiancé Nick. We said, “no thank you”, to spending a bunch of money on a wedding and instead bought a total fixer-upper. We somehow inherently knew real estate was the key to so many things in life. This was in 2009. The flipper frenzy was in full swing, and we jumped on the bandwagon. Nick was in residential remodeling already, so we were confident. After several flips and infill projects, I knew my next step was getting my real estate license. Helping others with their real estate needs was the perfect fit. Fast forward, we sold that adorable little 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home in El Cajon and purchased the home we are in now (which was also a total fixer-upper) located in Eucalyptus Hills in Lakeside. My husband and I have since purchased two other homes as rental properties in East County. Bottom line: I believe in the value of Real Estate. Helping others change their lives through real estate is my passion.
