Real Estate Agent (Salesperson)
La Jolla - CA

**Arlene Sacks**

With a career in real estate that began in 1978, Arlene Sacks brings extensive expertise to the buying and selling process. Originally from South Africa, she has called La Jolla home for over 37 years. After relocating to San Diego with her husband, a physician at Scripps Clinic, Arlene was encouraged by friends to explore property investment. To navigate this new venture, she obtained her real estate license and subsequently acquired land in Rancho Santa Fe, where she established a commercial flower-growing operation that later expanded into Fallbrook.

Arlene is an active member of several professional organizations, including the La Jolla Real Estate Brokers’ Association (REBA), the San Diego Association of Realtors (SDAR), and the National Association of Realtors. She is recognized as a member of REBA’s Top Producers and received the Knox Award in 2000, acknowledging her contributions to community service, professionalism, and collaboration within the industry.

Reflecting on her journey, Arlene notes, "What started as an unexpected venture turned into a passion. I began assisting friends from South Africa in finding homes in San Diego County, and it has become a deeply rewarding career." Her real estate journey commenced with a small local firm, Oceanfront Properties, before she joined Willis Allen Real Estate’s corporate office in La Jolla over 15 years ago, where she continues to thrive as an agent. "I genuinely care about my clients, many of whom have become second-generation clients," she adds.

Outside of her professional life, Arlene cherishes time spent with her grandchildren in Los Angeles, which includes three grandsons and a granddaughter. Her interests also encompass crossword puzzles, Sudoku, and global travel, having visited over 130 countries. Additionally, she has contributed her time to various charitable organizations, including the Interfaith Homeless Institute, Step Down, Rachel’s House, and the Scripps Cancer Center Advisory Board.

In today's dynamic real estate market, Arlene emphasizes the importance of having a knowledgeable professional by your side. "My commitment as your local REALTOR® is to provide you with the specialized service you deserve," she states. She believes that informed buyers and sellers are empowered to make the best decisions regarding their most significant investments. With property values on the rise, she views real estate as a sound investment for both the present and the future.
