About Us
Arnie Levine has been a licensed real estate agent since 1986, and created County Properties in 1995. The company was created on a need to change old fashioned real estate office protocol, where all agents compete and market themselves in the same office. They wanted to create a company that has a team concept by doing all the marketing for our agents so they can focus on serving the clients needs and concerns. Arnie has a college background in Electronics and Computer Technology, allowing the company to always have a cutting edge in real estate technology. They are a family-owned business that caters to service. They keep their base of agents to a small group to allow direct hands on training, therefore giving each agent shared skills and empowerment to serve each client. Their company’s commitment and integrity focuses on their primary goal, which is to coach their clients so they can make their best choices when buying or selling a home. Our Realtors are hand picked and trained to give you the most professional service in our industry. Although they are fully trained in the foreclosure real estate market, every agent has their own specialty; the agents all work together to give the best service in San Diego County. Some of these specialties include regular real estate and investment real estate. High technology is our logistical strategy, to forward our abilities and help clarify the buying and selling process for our clients to easily purchase or sell a home.

Why customers choose us
I highly recommend a partnership with the County Properties Team! As our Realtor® they brings heart and soul to finding the perfect abode and meeting all needs of living in comfort. County Properties helped me to determine exactly what I was looking for in this important purchase and then worked tirelessly to help me to find the perfect new home. County Properties has the ability to focus entirely on the specific needs of their clients and then to sift out the possible properties until the right one is found. They are extremely knowledgeable about her service area and is complemented by a host of resources to assist a new home buyer.
We were looking for a REO property in an outlying suburb of San Diego. My husband found Arnie & Lisa Levine Realtors® for County Properties on the internet, and we couldn’t have been happier. They have a lot of expertise in REO properties and their advice was great. They understood, very quickly, what we were looking for and helped narrow our search down. Their website is easy to use and very helpful. During the escrow process they were encouraging, and applied light pressure just where and when it was needed. Not only are they knowledgeable, but they are a lot of fun! They made our buying experience really great.
Thank you so much for all your help with the purchase of my new condominium. Being a short sale I was concerned about all the potential problems we might encounter. I have heard you could spend a lot of time and energy with this kind of sale and in the end it doesn’t go through. However, it was not so in this case. With all your diligent work and knowledge in the short sale process, it went very smooth and I felt confident from the beginning. You kept me informed at all times and what to expect next. I would definitely do another short sale, or for that matter, any real estate purchase through you again. Thank you so much for everything.
