She prioritizes understanding her clients’ needs, ensuring that their fundamental goals are always at the forefront of her efforts. Raquel expresses her passion for real estate by stating, “There is no greater joy than knowing that I can make people's dreams come true, whether they are purchasing their ideal vacation home or expanding their real estate portfolio.”
Originally from Spain, Raquel holds a degree in computer programming and began her professional journey in the sales and trading division of a prominent local bank. After relocating to the United States in 1996, she took on a role at Delta Airlines as a customer service manager for elite members and later served as a software field instructor.
Raquel entered the real estate sector in 2003 as a mortgage loan processor and supervisor at Optimus Lending, a company she co-founded in Long Beach, California. She played a pivotal role in Las Palmas LLC, which successfully completed a condo conversion project in downtown Long Beach and developed land in Big Bear. In 2006, she joined IndyMac Bank as a Customer Account Executive, where she managed relationships with high-performing brokerages and bank partners.
Her experience at IndyMac provided her with invaluable industry insights and highlighted the importance of adapting to an ever-evolving market. “I adjust quickly to trends and stay connected to the community to ensure that my clients receive the best possible service,” she notes.
After moving to San Diego with her family in 2011, Raquel transitioned into a real estate agent and quickly established herself as a leading expert in the South Bay area. She became a guest speaker on ESPN 1700 radio and KCBQ The Real Estate Radio Network, earning recognition as the top agent in San Diego County in 2018 for list price accuracy and second for the fastest sales.
With 17 years of real estate experience, Raquel is dedicated to providing a first-class experience for every client. “I take pride in being a well-rounded Realtor and enjoy every aspect of my job,” she states.
In February 2019, Raquel joined Coronado Shores Co as the only Spanish-speaking real estate agent in the office. Known as the premier real estate firm on the island, Coronado Shores Co has a rich history, having developed the Coronado Shores project in 1970, which features 1,467 luxurious beachfront condos. The firm maintains a significant market share in condo sales and manages over 400 vacation rental units, making it the leading property management company in the area. The realtors at Coronado Shores Co have established deep-rooted relationships with owners, tenants, and the community, enhancing the service they provide to their clients.
“I am honored to be part of a company with such a legacy in Coronado and grateful to work alongside industry professionals. Together, we are the team you want by your side when buying or selling real estate,” Raquel concludes.
