Buy a Home in Seaside, CA

Smart, Local Guidance for Buying in One of the Monterey Peninsula’s Most Dynamic Markets

Buying a home in Seaside offers a unique combination of value, location, and long-term potential. With proximity to Monterey, Marina, and the coast—and a wide range of price points—Seaside continues to attract both first-time buyers and move-up buyers looking for opportunity.

I’m Peter Boggs, a 3rd-generation Realtor® with over 10 years of experience on the Monterey Peninsula, and I help buyers navigate Seaside with clarity, strategy, and confidence.


What Makes Buying in Seaside Unique

Seaside is one of the most diverse real estate markets on the Peninsula. Neighborhoods vary significantly in style, price, and outlook, making local insight especially important.

Key factors buyers should understand include:

  • Neighborhood-by-neighborhood pricing differences

  • Proximity to Monterey, Marina, and Highway 1

  • Lot size, zoning, and ADU potential

  • Condition and inspection considerations

  • Long-term appreciation and redevelopment trends

Because Seaside is evolving, knowing where value exists—and where it doesn’t—is critical.


My Approach to Helping Buyers Succeed in Seaside

Seaside buyers often face competition from both local and out-of-area buyers. My role is to help you evaluate opportunities clearly and position yourself strongly when the right home becomes available.


1. Education Before Touring Homes

Before touring properties, I help buyers understand:

  • Current Seaside market conditions

  • What pricing is realistic by neighborhood

  • How condition impacts true value

  • What to expect during inspections and escrow

This preparation allows buyers to move forward confidently and avoid surprises.


2. Strategic Offer Writing

Well-priced Seaside homes can attract strong interest, especially those with larger lots or ADU potential.

I help buyers:

  • Structure competitive, thoughtful offers

  • Navigate multiple-offer situations

  • Understand contingencies and risk

  • Communicate strength clearly to sellers

The goal is to secure the right home without overpaying or stretching unnecessarily.


3. Hands-On Guidance Through Escrow

Once under contract, I remain closely involved, helping manage:

  • Inspections and repair negotiations

  • Appraisal considerations

  • Loan timelines and contingencies

  • Clear communication at every step

You’ll always know where things stand and what decisions matter most.


Seaside Buyer Insight That Matters

Because I work throughout Seaside and the greater Peninsula, I help buyers understand:

  • Which neighborhoods are seeing the strongest demand

  • Where pricing remains more approachable

  • How condition and zoning affect leverage

  • When patience or flexibility creates opportunity

That insight helps buyers make decisions they feel good about both now and long term.
