Trevor Smith

Real Estate Broker | License ID: DRE 01700986

Trevor and his wife, Lindsey, are the owners of Engel & Völkers Carlsbad.  As a resident of North County his entire life and a third generation Realtor, Trevor knows San Diego real estate unlike any other. He has a unique eye for emerging markets, undiscovered opportunities, and hidden details that help maximize value for buyers, sellers, and investors alike. From the very first consultation, Trevor works tirelessly toward finding the best strategy to meet his clients’ goals. Whether a client is looking to buy or sell a personal home, vacation residence, or investment, Trevor’s local expertise enables him to guide clients to the best properties, neighborhoods, and markets to fit their lifestyle and needs.

Trevor's reputation among his past clients, local real estate agents, affiliated industries, and many others allows expedited and transparent valuation and honest value analysis that gives the best possible prediction of price, terms, and timeframe to sell any home or property.

Trevor is highly active with the North County San Diego Association of Realtors, having previously served on several boards, and he is the ongoing emcee of the Vista/San Marcos Realtor Caravan meetings. This extensive network and his detailed knowledge of the region allow him to find homes and land that few others can, sometimes before they are on the market, or even see through "bad" marketing to reveal a diamond hidden in the rough. He frequently presents options clients didn’t know exist, and he can introduce creative ways to make a dream property more attainable than it might seem. His wide-ranging experience as well as the good old-fashioned value of hard work, combined with the premium marketing and global reach of Engel & Völkers, help Trevor generate interest & top dollar sales that lead the market time and time again.

When Trevor is not working, he can often be found in the community, enjoying the many offerings of North County. He also enjoys playing guitar, surfing, camping, and off-roading in his Jeep with Lindsey, their daughter, and their dog.

    Not only was Trevors class on real estate investing extremely eye opening for me but I met with him one on one afterward to explore options for my situation. I had no idea all the types of deals I could qualify for NOW! He found me several investment properties and I cannot wait to get my first house!

    Trevor went above and beyond to show me many homes over many months. He went in depth with explaning cost of potential renovations, anticipated market directions, and things that would and would not affect resale value. He is extremely knowledable and genuine. An added benefit is that he is very easy to communicate with and willing to answer any questions you might have at any time! As a first time buyer, this was valuable to me. He helped me succussfully purchase my dream home!
