Trust Sales in Costa Mesa

A written plan and one coordinator for trustees selling a home held in a trust.

Pricing you can explain to the family

A successor trustee has to sell well and be able to show why the price was right. In Costa Mesa, where a property's type, zoning and lot can matter as much as its size, that means choosing comparable sales carefully and writing down the reasoning.

I'm Jeanette Nelson of Jeanette Nelson Real Estate, a Seniors Real Estate Specialist® (SRES®) with training in probate and estate sales.

What I handle

  • A written plan and timeline
  • Estate sale, clean-out, repairs, paint and staging, coordinated with vendors I know
  • A documented price based on sales of similar Costa Mesa properties. See Costa Mesa home values.
  • Updates for you and, if you want, the beneficiaries
  • Local help if you live out of the area

I work alongside your attorney and CPA and don't give legal or tax advice.

Costa Mesa at a glance

Where Character Meets Coastal Living.

The homes
Eclectic. A mix of residential zoning and development patterns: single-family homes alongside duplexes and other multifamily properties, condos, townhomes, accessory units, older cottages, remodeled homes and newer construction. Architecture, lot configurations and property types can vary street to street.
Why people choose it
People choose it for its variety and personality, and to enjoy neighboring Newport Beach's beaches, restaurants, shopping and coastal lifestyle without Newport Beach home prices. Eastside Costa Mesa, Mesa Verde and the Westside each feel different.
Getting around
Access to the 55, 405 and 73, and close to Irvine, Newport Beach and John Wayne Airport.
Nearby
South Coast Plaza, Segerstrom Center for the Arts, a strong restaurant, coffee and local business scene, and Newport Beach next door.
The trade-off
Versus Huntington Beach: Costa Mesa is not a beach city. Parts of Eastside Costa Mesa are very close to the ocean, but there are no miles of coastline, beachfront bike path, pier or surf-town setting outside your door.
