A FAIR DEAL NEEDS AN ADVOCATE ON EACH SIDE.
There are no good one-sided deals. A real estate transaction works best when both buyer and seller have someone fully committed to protecting their interests.
I’m Jeanne Hollingsworth, an independent buyer’s broker serving the Santa Ynez Valley. I represent buyers exclusively, and I don’t represent both the buyer and seller in the same transaction. You deserve an advocate whose loyalty is clear—someone who can ask the hard questions, evaluate the details, and negotiate for the price and terms that serve your goals.
Whether you’re looking for an equestrian estate, a vineyard retreat, acreage, or a home in one of our Valley towns, I’ll bring local knowledge and careful guidance to your search. I’ll help you understand the property and the responsibilities that come with owning it, so you can make your decision with confidence.
When you’re ready to explore the Santa Ynez Valley, I’ll be in your corner representing you and only you.

Knowing how emotional an experience selling a house can be, she expertly and gently guided us through the steps during the four months of prepping, staging and waiting for the right offer to come our way. From cleaners, painters, landscapers, movers - Jeanne had a strong team to support our sale efforts.
