Hi, I’m Ameena Ibrahim — your San Diego real estate resource and trusted partner for your next big move.
I was born in Santa Barbara, that quintessential Southern California gem where everyone knows each other by first and last name. Growing up in such a tight-knit community, I learned early on the value of connection and belonging — something I carry with me every day in real estate.

Right after high school, I moved to San Diego for college. Even then, I knew I was craving more — more energy, more challenge, more opportunity. That drive took me all over the country, expanding my Airbnb business in Arizona, Miami, New York, and Connecticut. Each city taught me something new about markets, people, and what makes a property feel like “home.” But no matter where I went, California kept calling me back. A year ago, I followed that pull home — and today, I’m here in San Diego doing what I love most: helping people find their perfect place or make smart investments in a city that has my heart.

Reliable. Driven. Personable. These are the qualities I bring to every transaction. My journey through multiple states and competitive Airbnb markets honed my eye for detail, sharpened my negotiation skills, and gave me a deep respect for what it takes to make a property stand out — and sell.

What inspired me to step fully into real estate? It’s simple: I love helping people navigate one of the biggest decisions they’ll ever make. Whether you’re buying your first condo, upsizing to your forever home, or adding an investment property to your portfolio, I’m here to guide you through every step — and make it feel easy.

If you’re buying in San Diego, my first advice is to get crystal clear on your finances and secure that pre-approval. It’s your golden ticket in a fast-moving market like ours. Know your non-negotiables, stay flexible on the rest, and when we find the one, be ready to move smartly — but never skip that home inspection.

For my sellers, think back to my Airbnb days: presentation is everything. From curb appeal to decluttering, I’ll help you make your home shine so buyers can see themselves living there. Pricing strategy, stunning marketing, and flexibility are keys to success — and I’m here to make sure you get top dollar, with as little stress as possible.

San Diego is packed with neighborhoods I love — from the laid-back surf vibe of Ocean Beach to the iconic beauty of La Jolla, the historic charm of Point Loma, the energy of the Gaslamp, and the timeless appeal of Coronado and Del Mar. Each corner has its own vibe, and part of my job is matching you with the one that feels like you.

If you’re new in town, trust me — I’ll help you find the best coffee shops, weekend markets, and scenic trails that make San Diego feel like home from day one.

When I’m not busy making deals happen, you might find me performing or singing — music is my soul. If I had a theme song? Shining by Beyoncé — because when you work with me, I promise, we’re both going to shine.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing in San Diego, let’s connect and make it happen — and maybe even build an empire while we’re at it.

Let’s shine — together.
