NOOZHAWK: What is your experience and education?
VINCE CABALLERO: I have 39 years in the financial services industry. My experience includes being a lender to managing lenders. Most recently I was the Managing Director of the Central Coast Region for Union/US Bank responsible of all aspects of the branches from Carpinteria to Paso Robles. In October of 2023 I shifted my financial services expertise to Real Estate, acquiring my Real Estate license in April of 2024.

NOOZHAWK: Which neighborhoods do you primarily work in?

NOOZHAWK: What type of support staff or resources do you have?

NOOZHAWK: How do you keep your clients informed about your progress?
VC: I provide regular updates to my clients.
NOOZHAWK: Do you show properties from other companies’ listings?
VC: Yes, my goal is to ensure my clients are aware of everything that is on the market that may meet their needs.

NOOZHAWK: What do you suggest sellers do to get their house ready to put on the market?
VC: I encourage my clients to view their home from a buyer’s perspective. Start with the front of the home. The curb appeal to a home is the beginning of the buyer’s journey. Second decluttering or staging is key. In an effort to limit surprises I recommend obtaining inspections and reports prior to marketing.
NOOZHAWK: How do you arrive at the listing price?
VC: I start with a detailed market analysis using properties close in proximity that have recently sold or are currently on the market. I leverage my colleague’s expertise to recommend a range. I provide the data to my clients and ultimately, they will decide the price. The goal is to price the property right from the beginning.
