Brandi Jones | REALTOR® | Award-Winning Sales Associate | Expert Negotiator
With over 16 consecutive years as an award-winning top producer at a firm that has been proudly #1 for over 44 years, I am honored to be recognized as a past Sales Associate of the Year — but even more proud to help my clients win in today’s evolving markets.
Whether you are buying, selling, or navigating a life transition toward financial freedom, my mission is to position you for long-term success. Over the course of my career, I have successfully closed hundreds of sales, guided countless homeowners through complex challenges, and negotiated exceptional outcomes across a diverse range of properties — including rural retreats, coastal homes, luxury estates, and first-time buyer opportunities.
As a seasoned REALTOR®, I bring together the power of expert negotiation, strategic financial guidance, and deep community connections to deliver results that are transformational — not just transactional.
After earning my degree in East Asian Studies from the University of California, Santa Cruz, I initially prepared to enter law school. However, a life-changing pause led me to fall in love with the Santa Cruz and greater Monterey Bay Area’s vibrant spirit, breathtaking landscapes, and unmatched lifestyle. Although my career path shifted, my passion deepened — and today, with 21 years of experience in real estate, I have successfully navigated every market cycle since 2004.
I am proud to give back to the communities that shaped me, having served on the boards of the Capitola-Soquel Chamber of Commerce, the Women’s Council of REALTORS®, and Modern Real Estate Professionals, while also participating as an expert witness and Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) in legal circumstances for the disadvantaged in real estate, and volunteering in numerous local fundraisers and events that celebrate the unique Santa Cruz and Monterey Bay lifestyle.
Rooted in real estate from childhood and fueled by a lifelong passion for homes, I am committed to delivering service that transcends expectations. My clients know that when they work with me, they gain a lifelong advocate — someone deeply invested in their journey well beyond the closing table.
And when I’m not hosting open houses or negotiating on behalf of my clients, you can often find me playing competitive beach volleyball along the shores of Santa Cruz and the Monterey Bay — fully living the lifestyle I love to share with others.
