Sell Your Home in Encinitas
A property-specific plan for your sale and your next move
I’m Matthew “Matt” Sorensen, Broker Associate with Coldwell Banker Realty. Licensed since 2000, I help Encinitas homeowners plan, prepare, market, and negotiate the sale of their homes. My work includes coastal and luxury properties, probate and trust sales, and senior transitions.
Whether your priority is preparing a long-held family home, coordinating a move, or evaluating your selling options, we start with your goals and the property itself.

Your home deserves more than an online estimate
A pricing strategy starts with comparable properties and the homes buyers can choose today. We also consider your home’s condition, floor plan, outdoor space, location, views where applicable, and the improvements you have made. Together, we review a proposed price, preparation budget, and estimated proceeds.
Preparation with a purpose
Before you commit to renovations, we discuss which work supports your goals. Cleaning, decluttering, painting, flooring, landscaping, or staging may be worth considering. I can help coordinate vendors, compare preparation options, and organize a schedule so you understand the work before approving it.
Marketing that explains what makes your home distinctive
For coastal and luxury homes, the details matter. Professional photography, clear property descriptions, and a coordinated marketing plan should help buyers understand the home’s design, setting, and lifestyle. We agree on how the property will be presented, showing access, and how you will receive feedback.
Negotiation that considers your whole move
An offer is more than its price. We compare financing, contingencies, credits, timing, and estimated proceeds. If you are purchasing another home, relocating, or helping a family member downsize, those plans belong in the conversation from the beginning.
Personal involvement throughout the sale
My background includes investing in fixer-uppers and managing rental properties. I bring that practical perspective to preparation decisions and stay involved as we move through marketing, offers, inspections, and closing.
Encinitas client Steve DeMots described his experience this way:
“did a great job of keeping us informed”
Questions Encinitas sellers often ask
Should I make improvements before listing?
We compare the cost, effort, and likely buyer response with selling in the home’s current condition. The recommendation depends on your property and priorities.
Can you help coordinate vendors if I live elsewhere?
Yes. We can discuss property access, preparation, local providers, and a communication plan. Each provider’s scope and costs are reviewed separately.
What if the sale is part of a family transition?
