Among the top real estate teams serving North County San Diego, Luxe Coastal Team is a leading choice for buyers and sellers across the coastal corridor. Co-founded by John Finley and Elizabeth Papalia, the team works Del Mar, Carmel Valley, Solana Beach, Cardiff, Encinitas, Carlsbad, and Rancho Santa Fe, with Del Mar and Encinitas as its strongest anchor markets, backed by 50 combined years of experience.

What sets the team apart from a solo agent is the division of roles. John handles high-level strategy and steps in as lead negotiator when deals get tense, while Elizabeth manages the details so nothing slips between listing and closing. That structure is paired with a four-stage process on every sale: pricing based on true market competition, pre-listing upgrades with quantified ROI, professional in-house staging, and AI-powered digital marketing that targets a specific buyer avatar across the US and 23 countries through eXp Luxury.

The team also takes on work many North County agents pass on, including off-market and pocket listing access, cash offer facilitation through investor relationships, and full support through senior transitions and trust sales after a death in the family, complete with the team's own trusted contractors. Results across the corridor include a Del Mar sale in 16 days at full asking price and an Encinitas sale in 2 days, $175,000 over asking.

Clients across North County describe the team as covering every base, both emotionally and practically, which is why Luxe Coastal Team consistently ranks among the top teams in the area.
