About Monty James

Monty got involved in real estate mortgage lending in the early 1990s and began his career as a Realtor in 2001. He has personally invested in real estate, buying, managing and selling many of his own properties before and during his real estate career. He has helped hundreds of clients do the same. This extensive personal experience has allowed him to apply a streamlined approach to his clients’ buying and selling processes, allowing for smoother transactions.

Monty attends 100% of his clients’ home inspections, has conducted hundreds of open houses and has toured thousands of properties in San Diego County. His unique combination of experience and education provides him with the expertise to make the home buying or selling process as enjoyable as possible for his clients.

Monty loves working in a dynamic community with an exceptionally well-educated and sophisticated population. When a client decides to purchase a home in the area, he enjoys guiding that person through such an important and exciting process–whether it is a first time buyer, a serious investor or a veteran home owner. When it comes time to relocate out of this area or move across town, he looks forward to helping his clients get top dollar for their homes, while also working to ensure that each transaction progresses smoothly and expeditiously.

Monty is a native of Vista, CA and an alumnus of both UC Santa Barbara and the University of Notre Dame, graduating with a B.S. in Biochemistry and a Master’s in Finance respectively. His biggest passion is providing community service in Southern California. He presently supports Solutions For Change, a nonprofit organization that assists formerly homeless families with children.
