Cindi Gortner | Realtor

About: Cindi Gortner is a principal with the Cindi and Suzi Realty Group and ranks in the top 1% of realtors nationwide based on closed sales volume. Cindi holds an MBA from UCLA and an undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley. Cindi is originally from Pasadena as her father worked at NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena. Representing both sellers and buyers, her team works primarily in the Conejo Valley, but they also work as far north as Santa Barbara and as far south as the San Fernando Valley. Cindi finds tremendous joy in helping sellers achieve their goal of obtaining top dollar for their homes and has an impressive track record of achieving record high sales prices. Her winning strategy includes hands-on home styling, world class marketing, and outstanding customer service. Buying or selling a home can be stressful, and Cindi and her team pride themselves in helping make the process as easy and simple as possible. Most importantly, Cindi is known for her integrity and professionalism and prides herself on being a trusted advisor to her clients.

Cindi started her career as Director of Marketing at Nestle USA and is known for being the inventor of Nestle Pretzel Flipz, chocolate covered pretzels in shiny blue bags sold in most retail outlets. Cindi enjoys her work with several non-profit boards including Mainsprings, a girls orphanage and school in Tanzania, the Lake Sherwood Community Association, the Conejo Valley chapter of the National Charity League and Committee to Bridge the Gap. In her free time, you will find Cindi hiking in the gorgeous hills around Westlake Village or boating on Lake Sherwood where she lives with her husband and two of her three children. She says it's almost embarrassing how bonded she is with her white husky Dakota who likes to go on as many outings as possible.

Specialties: Many homeowners find it confusing trying to decide how to best prepare their home to sell. Cindi and her team specialize in helping homeowners freshen up their homes in order to sell quickly and for the most money possible. Their "secret sauce" is that they own several storage units full of staging items and offer customers complimentary light staging. The team guides homeowners on which projects will provide a worthwhile ROI and then their interior designer helps with the home remodel process. Additionally, Cindi holds three designations: senior real estate specialist, luxury real estate specialist and investment property specialist. She is particularly interested in helping seniors with their housing needs, and Cindi and her team are well versed in investment real estate and can help with second homes, rental properties and navigating 1031 exchanges.
