A little bit about me...

Welcome. I’m so glad you found me.

I’m Sona Butterfield — a licensed California REALTOR® with over 20 years of experience in housing, property management, and client advocacy. I specialize in relocation and new construction. But I’m not your average agent.  I bring a rare level of insight, empathy, and resourcefulness into every transaction. I don’t just understand housing — I understand what it means to need a home and to have one.

I help people find homes that reflect who they truly are, not just where they happen to land. I support those relocating to California with clarity, honesty, and coaching-style guidance. I work with buyers seeking new construction, thoughtfully planned communities, and long-term alignment.

With a background in HOA management, multifamily communities, condo development, commercial and Section 42 lease-ups, I know the backend of buildings, cities, and housing systems — and I bring that technical expertise forward in my client experience.

I blend coaching and consulting into my real estate practice, helping my clients feel empowered, not overwhelmed. I’m here to protect your peace, process, and future — not just open doors.


✨ Ready to Find a Home That Reflects the Life You're Building?

Whether you're relocating, starting fresh, or exploring what's possible, I'm here to guide you with clarity, care, and strategy. Let's connect and map out your next move together.
