Why Work With Me

Why Work With Me

As one of the top Realtors in San Diego County—from the sand to the ranch—Dawn Boquet brings unmatched expertise, local knowledge, and a genuine passion for helping clients find their perfect home across coastal communities, inland valleys, and rural ranches.

Dawn launched her real estate career with immediate success, attracting high-profile clients including entertainment professionals, local executives, and international business leaders. Yet no matter the price point—from luxury estates in Rancho Santa Fe to family homes in Carmel Valley or ranch properties in Descanso—Dawn treats every transaction with the same dedication and care. “Whether it’s a first-time buyer, a growing family, or someone seeking a coastal retreat or country ranch, it’s an incredible privilege to guide clients through one of life’s biggest milestones and help them achieve their dreams.”

A proud third-generation San Diegan, Dawn’s deep roots run through the heart of the county. Her father served as a San Diego firefighter for 30 years, her grandfather retired from the Navy after graduating from La Jolla High School, and her family legacy now extends to a fourth generation through her son. This lifelong connection gives Dawn intimate knowledge of San Diego County’s diverse neighborhoods—from the beaches of Pacific Beach, La Jolla and Del Mar to the upscale communities of Point Loma, Coronado Cays,  Rancho Santa Fe, Carmel Valley, and Pacific Highlands Ranch, all the way to the peaceful ranch lifestyles in East County.

Outside of real estate, Dawn lives the active San Diego lifestyle she loves to share with her clients. She’s a devoted mother and grandmother, a faithful Christian follower of Jesus, and the proud owner of a beloved Boxer dog. You’ll often find her on the pickleball courts at Carmel Valley Recreation Center, Ocean Air, Carmel Valley, or Pacific Highlands Ranch. She treasures family camping trips in the RV with loved ones, hiking through San Diego’s stunning trails, and embracing the natural beauty of the region. Dawn also gives back to the community, volunteering with CRU Military Ministry at MCRD San Diego and serving on projects at Horizon Church, as well as working on family improvements at their cherished ranch home in Descanso. Clients choose Dawn for her active energy, sharp market insight, tireless work ethic, unwavering honesty, and flawless execution. Whether you’re buying or selling in coastal San Diego, suburban North County, or rural East County ranches, Dawn Boquet delivers the expertise and personalized service needed for an exceptional real estate experience—from the sand to the ranch.

Sold a Single Family home in 2022 in Miramar ranch north, San diego, CA.
Dawn is amazing and made our home sale experience special and stress free! Her attention to detail, methodical approach, genuine care, and professionalism was top notch. It was emotional selling our home where our four children were raised but Dawn made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Being on the same page, trust, and communication were the keys to the success in selling our home. We highly recommend Dawn and her team at Coldwell Banker!!

Dawn was fantastic throughout our home buying process! She was extremely responsive and answered all of our questions. More importantly, she was very honest in her answers even when the answers were not what we wanted to hear; we sincerely appreciated that approach.

Purchasing a home with Dawn Boquet as our realty agent was a very stress free experience. We were buying from out of town so Dawn handled everything for us. We would definitely use Dawn as our agent again and would recommend her to friends and family.

Sold a Apartment home in 2014 in National city, CA.
I live in San Francisco and had a piece of property to sell in San Diego. That required a long-distance realtor who could be responsive to my needs by phone and get a price that would require minimum costs to me. She far exceeded my expectations. She constantly kept me informed as to transactions, was always available on the phone, always looked out for my best interests in terms of price and costs. The property sold within a short amount of time at a price that exceeded my expectations. Dawn's personality showed her passion and love for her work. As a result I trusted her explicitly and had so much ease in the transactiondfgdfgdfgdfg

Bought a home in 2014 in CA 92117.
It is with great pleasure that I give Dawn the highest rating allowable. Dawn not only helped and guided me and my wife in the home buying process but she helped us in securing our "forever home". As first time home buyers we had plenty of trepidation and questions but Dawn quickly put us at ease and ensured us that we could contact her any time with any concerns about the process. Dawn was true to her word. We were able to get ahold of her at various times of the day via phone, email or text and she promptly responded. In person she is very approachable, likable yet professional. We highly recommend Dawn Boquet for your real estate needs.dfgdfgdfgdfg

Sold a Single Family home in 2012 in Carmel valley, San diego, CA.
Dawn sold my home in Carmel Valley San Diego 92130. She did such a great job with the sale of my house. I had met with other agents and decided to go with Dawn. She is professional and very easy to work with. I am so glad I decided to use Dawn because she listed it higher than the other agents told me they would list it for and got me well above what the other agents said they could get for my house...Thanks you so much Dawn for getting a higher price for my home and selling it quickly. I highly recommend Dawn to all my friends, family and co-workers.

Dawn is the most knowledgeable, professional and talented agent out there. She and her business partner were able to transform my home for sale. "They staged it" and it looked so beautiful, like a model home. Dawn was able to get me the price I wanted for my home. I would highly recommend her to absolutely anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home in San Diego.

Bought and sold a home in 2010 in CA 92067.
Dawn represented us on both sides of a quick move in 2010 - a very tough time in real estate, indeed! She helped quickly sell a house in Carlsbad (well within our target price range - and within weeks of listing) and found us a brilliant place in Rancho Santa Fe with short-sale pricing. She navigated the short-sale purchase in expert fashion, and we closed in record time. We want all of this to happen really quickly, and she handled it all with grace and professionalism. Dawn is among the best in San Diego county. I've worked with many real estate professionals, and I can recommend Dawn without hesitation.

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 in Santee, CA.
Dawn is awesome! I'm new to San Diego and knew virtually zero about real estate prior to working with Dawn. She was recommended by a friend who works in the real estate business. Dawn is very knowledgeable and professional, and always kind and low-key. She recently helped me close on a new home at a competitive price in one of the newest and most sought-after communities in San Diego County. In the process, she helped me beat out multiple competing offers and navigate some very complex issues which arose during the purchase. She is very thorough and helped me understand and feel comfortable with the process. I recommend Dawn without hesitation to anyone who wants an exceptional realtor!

Bought a Condo home in 2010 in Harborview, San diego, CA.
Being British and based in the UK we had no knowledge of the California property market and Dawn was able to guide us comfortably through the whole process. She initially steered us away from what would have been a disastrous purchase in Borrego Springs and steered us gently to Downtown San Diego which is where we really wanted to be. She took time to find out about us and our real needs then showed us a wide range of apartments in the Downtown area. We ended up at the Breeza and are blissfully happy there. My wife, Cathie, and I would like to think that Dawn became a friend during our property search and we were very thankfull indeed to have someone so competent and committed on our side throughout the whole process. We got lucky finding Dawn to act as our guide through the property jungle!

Ask for Dawn My husband and I were looking to purchase a home in Rancho Santa Fe with a view. Dawn found it, our dream home with an amazing view. She listened to what we wanted. She understood our likes and dislikes and matched our taste with the perfect home for us. We have moved in and are so happy with our new view home! We highly recommend Dawn as a realtor and expert in real estate in Rancho Santa Fe. Ask for Dawn Boquet.xvxcvxcvxcvxcvxcvxcvxvxcvvxvxcvxcv

Sold a Single Family home in 2014 in Ramona, CA.
My husband met Dawn online when first hearing about our Military orders to San Diego. He contacted her with regards to homes near both of our work places and was pretty specific as to what he was looking for. Dawn worked closely with us for over a year via email before we ever came here. Upon our arrival, Dawn made herself available to us 24/7 our calls if not answered immediately were returned within a few minutes or hours at the most. We received listings and information from her almost daily and when it came time to look at houses, she knew exactly what we were looking for and never wavered from our specifications (or our stringent time frame) unless she knew it was something that we would really like. Thanks to Dawn we purchased the exact home we wanted and she made sure everything we (and the sellers) were supposed to do was completed and that we understood everything we were signing and agreeing too. Three years later we were forced to sell our home and move again, of course we contacted Dawn. Dawn realized how hard this was for us to sell our dream home however, as with the purchase of the house she was on top of everything as far as the sale went. Dawn ensured we were doing everything we were supposed to do and turned our selling experience into one as seamless and stress free as the buying process. I will probably never purchase or sell a home again in the San Diego area again however, if I do, no matter where she is or what we have to do, I WILL have no one but Dawn list it for us. If there were a 10 star rating, she would have received 10 stars. We are older and have bought and sold multiple homes throughout our military career and Dawn has hands down been the best agent we have ever had. Thank you Dawn for everything you did for us!!!!
