Selling a home in Monterey is different than selling a home anywhere else on the Central Coast. From coastal microclimates and neighborhood-by-neighborhood pricing nuances to buyer expectations around condition, inspections, and presentation, success comes down to strategy—not guesswork.
I’m Peter Boggs, a 3rd-generation Realtor® with over 10 years of experience on the Monterey Peninsula, and I help Monterey homeowners sell with clarity, confidence, and results.
Monterey buyers are highly informed and value-driven. Homes don’t sell simply because they’re listed—they sell because they’re priced correctly, positioned properly, and marketed strategically.
Key factors that impact Monterey home values include:
Neighborhood and street-level demand
Walkability to downtown Monterey, beaches, and coastal trails
Condition, deferred maintenance, and inspection readiness
Ocean proximity and coastal microclimates
Presentation, staging, and photography quality
Understanding these details—and how buyers interpret them—is what separates homes that sell quickly from those that linger.
Every Monterey home is different, which is why I don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach.
Pricing is the single most important decision a seller makes. I analyze:
True neighborhood comparables (not just recent sales)
Buyer demand and active competition
Market timing and absorption rates
Emotional vs. market-driven pricing risks
The goal is to attract strong interest early, not chase the market later.
Over the past decade, I’ve built trusted relationships with the best local vendors—allowing my clients to make smart, cost-effective updates when needed.
This may include:
Professional staging (full or partial)
High-end photography and videography
Window cleaning and deep house cleaning
Minor repairs and cosmetic improvements
Inspection coordination and guidance
Not every home needs updates—but when they do, knowing what matters and what doesn’t can make a significant difference in net proceeds.
Monterey buyers expect more than basic MLS exposure.
Your home is marketed through:
Professional photography and cinematic video
Online exposure across major platforms
Targeted outreach to qualified buyers and agents
Broker tours and strategic open houses

This ensures your property reaches the right buyers, not just the most eyeballs.
Offers aren’t just about price. I help you evaluate:
Financing strength
Contingencies and timelines
Repair requests and inspection negotiations
Appraisal risk and closing certainty
My role is to protect your position while keeping the transaction moving smoothly to closing.
As someone who lives and works on the Monterey Peninsula, I understand:
Which Monterey neighborhoods command premiums
Where buyers are more price-sensitive
How seasonality impacts buyer behavior
How lifestyle and location influence value
This insight helps sellers make confident decisions backed by real data—not assumptions.
If you’re considering selling—now or in the future—the first step is understanding your home’s value and your options.
I’d be happy to provide:
A personalized home value analysis
A clear selling strategy based on your goals
