Hi, I’m Stephanie Zierenberg, a San Diego-based real estate agent with a passion for helping people find the home that makes them feel at home. I was born in Los Angeles and moved to San Diego 18 years ago for a relationship—and like so many who visit, I never left. The lifestyle, the community, and the character of each neighborhood completely won me over.

In high school, I was voted “Most Likely To Do My Own Thing,” and that’s still true today. I’ve always followed my own path, which is what led me to a career in real estate. Health challenges pushed me to seek a career that gave me flexibility, freedom, and purpose—and real estate checked every box. Now, I get to wake up every day and help people make confident decisions about one of the biggest investments of their lives.

Whether you're buying, selling, or investing, my goal is to make the process clear, comfortable, and maybe even a little fun. My clients know me as a trusted knowledge base, a compassionate advocate, and someone who will always keep it real. My favorite part of the job? Watching people light up when they find the right place or the right buyer—it never gets old.

If you're just starting to think about buying or selling, my advice is simple: it never hurts to ask questions. Let’s talk about your goals, your timeline, and your options.

My favorite corner of San Diego is University Heights. It’s walkable, close to the buzz of Hillcrest and North Park, but still has a quieter, more relaxed vibe. And if you’re looking for a true hidden gem in the city, don’t miss City Farmers Nursery—a tiny urban farm with a cozy restaurant and live music, right in the heart of town.

A few fun facts before we connect: my theme song is “Yeah Yeah Yeah” by The Flaming Lips, I love connecting with new people, and I happen to be a skilled tarot reader—because sometimes life and real estate both need a little intuition.

Let’s find the place that makes you happiest.
