We’re a boutique, independent, woman-owned local brokerage with over 35 years of experience in brokerage and development. Whether residential or commercial, sales or rentals, we can help you buy, rent, sell, or lease the perfect home or location. Nikki Dumas (Acerra) is the owner and managing broker.
We’re very much a referral-based business, with clients who return over multiple transactions — many of whom we’re now proud to call friends. Design runs in the family, too: the red storefront at 2519 N California was built by our own design-build firm, Studio Modernista.
Call, email, or text us anytime, and let’s talk about your real estate journey.
