About Phillip Schaefer
With a distinguished academic background in Architecture from Florence, Italy, this real estate professional brings a unique perspective to the housing market. His extensive experience includes serving as an elected Director on the local PWR CAR and NAR boards, where he has earned the respect of his peers for his advocacy and representation.
A dedicated community member, he has held leadership roles such as past President of the Santa Ana Rotary Club and Chairman of the Historic Resources Commission for a decade. His commitment to supporting neighborhood associations in North Santa Ana reflects his deep-rooted connection to the area.
Specializing in vintage properties that stand out from the typical Orange County offerings, he caters to clients relocating from cities like Irvine, Newport, and Laguna. Many of these clients seek the same qualities he valued when he first moved to the area: distinctive custom homes on spacious lots adorned with mature trees. This environment often evokes a sense of nostalgia for those with roots in the Midwest or East Coast, where architectural diversity is cherished.
His approach to client service is characterized by a personal touch; when clients choose to work with him, they receive his dedicated attention rather than being passed off to a team member. He prioritizes building relationships and ensuring that his clients' needs are met with honesty and integrity.
With 26 years of experience in real estate, he has cultivated a network of trusted service providers, from estate sale assistance to home renovations and relocation services. Many of these professionals have worked with his family, ensuring a level of trust and reliability.
A local enthusiast, he enjoys exploring the diverse culinary scene in Santa Ana, alongside his wife, a food aficionado. His children have benefited from the area's excellent schools, including a California Distinguished School recognized twice. Having lived in Floral Park since 1984 and with family roots in Washington Square dating back to 1956, he possesses a wealth of knowledge and experience that he is passionate about sharing.
