Caroline Purvis

I’ve greatly enjoyed buying, selling, leasing, and restoring homes in the greater L.A. area for more than 20 years - both for clients and myself.

After purchasing my first condo at 23 and then steadily progressing up the property-ownership ladder, I have learned that there is no better investment than real estate. The equity built through time and improvements both great and small makes all the difference in your long-term financial growth.

In addition to guiding buyers through the complex purchase process, I also provide expertise with listing properties, home renovation and restoration, 1031 exchange transactions, managing income-producing properties, and land purchases. I am an Accredited Buyer’s Representative® having completed comprehensive courses in buyer representation and home financing.

I'm also a member of the top-rated Teresa Fuller Team at COMPASS, ranked by Real Trends as the #1 team in both Pasadena and Altadena and the #18 team in California, as well being named to the Los Angeles Business Journal top 30, the Los Angeles Magazine All-Stars, and Best of Zillow.

As a third-generation Southern Californian, I have a deep appreciation for our region’s architectural styles and surroundings, and I love a good restoration. The daughter of an immigrant and a U.S. veteran, I grew up in Glendale and attended UCLA before settling down in Pasadena, where I serve as a commissioner on Pasadena's Historic Preservation Commission.
