Historic Property Specialist

A proud Californian with over a decade of experience, Vanessa holds a Master’s degree from USC’s School of Architecture in Historic Preservation and a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing from California Polytechnic University. Vanessa prides herself on providing each and every client with the focus, discretion, and integrity that her clients have come to appreciate and expect. Driven by sense of place and commitment to service, Vanessa has built her business on helping her clients achieve their real estate goals while finding “home” in the unique housing landscape of Southern California.

Born into a family immersed in the film industry and urban revitalization, Vanessa learned to view the world through an aesthetic and creative lens that has informed and directed her career. Her passion for architecture, historic preservation, and property led Vanessa to create Historic Preservation Partners; a successful consulting firm of which she is the owner and co-founder. She is proud to have been responsible for countless landmark designations and Mills Act property tax contracts for her clients. Vanessa thrives in the nuances of historic property, knowing how to tap into each building’s greatest strengths and navigate its challenges. Vanessa utilizes her professional skill set, as well as her background in historic preservation and marketing to provide attentive and highly personalized service to accomplish her clients’ goals.

Vanessa chooses to hang her license at Deasy Penner Podley; a real estate firm with an established reputation for selling architectural, historic, and luxury estate properties. Equipped with an exceptional marketing and design studio, unwavering commitment to excellence, and an ethos of “home as art”, DPP dovetails perfectly with Vanessa’s focus and facilitates robust support for her clients’ individual needs.

Vanessa enjoys spending her free time volunteering both in her daughter’s school community and as a Girl Scout leader; camping and traveling; frequenting the Huntington Library and other cultural venues; and restoring the 1895 Folk Victorian home she shares with her husband, daughter, and two dogs.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We seriously don’t know where we’d be without Vanessa. Selling our house with her as our agent never ever felt like a business transaction, it felt like we were family. She is amazingly competent and well-versed in her knowledge of historic homes. She is cool and calm, an amazing advocate, and a great communicator, and she gets business done. Her selling tips were on point, and she went above and beyond the average Realtor® with her touches of TLC and support. We truly wish we could’ve taken her with us on our move to another state because there isn’t anyone we trust more with such an important decision in our lives. She’s a gem.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Vanessa was just the best. She found our family the perfect home in terms of price, neighborhood, and style without even meeting us. Even though we purchased the house sight unseen, we knew we could absolutely trust her. She is warm, incredibly knowledgeable, and tough as nails. Trust us when we say that she is absolutely the person you want by your side during the emotional rollercoaster that is buying or selling a home.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Vanessa is incredible! We have used her to help us buy a home and are now using her to sell our home. On both accounts, she is absolutely the best! Vanessa has a keen eye for finding a house with good bones and good energy. When we were buying a home and went to go look at some showings, a lot of them were staged beautifully, but Vanessa would point out things to us that we would have never seen before that would have been costly to fix once we bought the house. So we didn't need to waste the time with an inspector. And other houses that might not be the most beautiful she would point out why that house has great bones and with a little work would be beautiful! We ended up with our dream home all thanks to Vanessa! Now that we are selling, Vanessa knows everything there is to know about getting the most for our house. How to stage it, what photographer to use, etc. She has answers to every question we have and is super upfront and honest about everything. We trust her so much. We could not think of a better Realtor®!
