Your Long Beach Real Estate Agent and Community Ambassador
I'm a Long Beach native and CSULB graduate. I moved around a lot growing up, and that taught me home isn't just a place, it's everything. It's where you put your roots down and build your life. That's what led me to real estate, and since getting my license in 2017, I've found my calling.
I know Long Beach neighborhoods well, from the laid-back beach vibe to the art scene to the yacht club, and my roots run up and down the Southern California coast, from Santa Barbara and Ventura through LA and Orange County to Oceanside. Today, I help first-time homebuyers, move-up buyers, downsizers, and sellers, and I host free homebuyer and seller seminars so you can learn the process in a clear, simple way before you make a move. You'll find me patient and never pushy, and I'll never steer you toward something that isn't right for you. Whether you buy with me or not, I'm always a resource, a month after closing or ten years later.
What really drives me is community. I've been bringing people together my whole life, from soccer leagues and run clubs to golf, paddleboarding, and beach cleanups, and many clients first meet me at these events and stay connected long after closing. When you're ready to make a move, give me a call. And either way, come join the community. Let's build community together!

Long Beach Realtor Reviews
Bought My First Home in a Fast-Moving Market Without the Pressure
First Home Buyer"Buying my first home in a fast-moving market could have felt overwhelming, but working with David Sanchez was the opposite of that. He never pushed me toward a quick decision. He asked the right questions, helped me think through what I actually wanted, and made sure the financial side made sense too. In a market where things were moving quickly, he consistently put me in a strong position when it came time to make an offer, while giving me the space to make sure each decision actually felt right. What makes him different is that there's no ego, no sales act. Almost five years later, I still love the home and still reach out to David when real estate questions come up."

Bought and Sold My Condo With David and Had Two Offers Within Days
Condo Buyer and Seller"I bought my condo with David five years ago, and that experience made it an easy decision to return to him when it came time to sell. From advising on staging and timeline in the early stages, to the showings, to deal management and close, he was communicative and responsive throughout. David is incredibly thoughtful in staging the home and creating the listing, he blended our existing furniture with his own accent pieces for gorgeous photos, and invested in a videographer to create social-media-ready videos that generated strong interest. His data-driven market analysis nailed the price before we listed, and his promotional strategy was flawless: within just a few days of the open house weekend, I had two offers, leading to a quick, easy sale. I'd highly recommend David as both a buyer's and seller's agent."

Sold Our Ventura Home and Moved to a Retirement Community in Camarillo
Ventura Seller and Camarillo Buyer"David is truly the best realtor we could hope to find. We were selling our home in Ventura to move to a retirement community in Camarillo, CA and David made sure that we'd get the best price possible for our Ventura home and that we got the things that really mattered to us in the home we bought. He handled the stress of our dysfunctioning septic tank and necessary exact timing with a non stop smile and creativity. His video of our Ventura home was exceptional."

Bought My First Home After David's First Time Home Buyer Seminar
First-Time Home Buyer
"Marissa Haro and David Sanchez did an amazing job helping me buy my new home. As a first time home buyer it was overwhelming so having a great team like Marissa and David guiding me through the process and looking out for my best interest made my journey much more pleasant. They're the best realtors I could have asked for. I'm glad I joined David's First Time Home Buyer seminar because if it wasn't for the valuable insight I gained from there I might have not pursued buying my first home at that time. I really recommend David Sanchez and Marissa Haro if you are looking for a realtor/s to help you find your new home in Long Beach."

First Home Purchased in Long Beach With a Fair Deal in Escrow
Long Beach Home Buyer
"David Sanchez is amazing! As a first-time homebuyer I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for their first home or even a new home to buy. He's incredibly knowledgeable about the Long Beach area and so helpful and patient to answer all my questions and walk me through everything every step of the way. I was particularly impressed with how David builds relationships and a good rapport with all the different seller's agents we came in contact with during my search. I really saw the benefit of such a well-connected and easy to work with realtor when I was in escrow on my house. Even though the sellers countered my offer with no credits or repairs, David worked his magic and got me a fair deal in the end. I highly recommend David to help you find your new home, especially if you're a first-time homebuyer."

He Did His Homework on Every Home and Made Buying Easy
LA County Home Buyers
"I feel horrible waiting so long to review him, but my wife and I absolutely loved David Sanchez! He was so kind and explained us through the whole process as first time homebuyers in LA County. Every house we went to look at, he did his "homework" and had notes before we even entered the doors. He was willing to drive back and forth, week in and week out and did it all with a smile and the best attitude. David truly made the home buying process as easy as it could possibly be. If we ever decide to sell and buy another home, we definitely will be going back to David. He truly is the best realtor that we could have asked for! I only took so long because I'm a chronic procrastinator...but David works with well with people like me too."
