A little about me...

Born at George Air Force Base, my family moved to San Diego when I was about six months old as my dad retired from the United States Air Force to start his career as a commercial airline pilot for the beloved PSA and then US Airways. My family enjoyed the rural lifestyle and I grew up with horses and enjoying the outdoors. I started playing tennis competitively at the age of 10 and I competed on the Southern California Circuit until College. Growing up, my mom owned and ran her own Montessori School in Ramona that she sold, but is still open today! I have always had a love for teaching and early childhood education so my career started off working in Montessori Schools.

In 2003, I moved to Mammoth to pursue another passion, rock climbing, and to help my sister with her business and their newborn son. Quickly after moving to Mammoth, I met my husband Pete – we were married in Mammoth and started our family there as well. In 2005, I founded and ran Mammoth Montessori Children’s House which I operated full-time for about 10 years. It was a great experience to run my own successful business which was an integral part of our community and to follow in my mom’s footsteps. In 2014, my husband and I and our two kids moved to San Diego when my dad was diagnosed with cancer.

My family and I love San Diego – we enjoy boating, hiking, and being tourists in our own town! Our kids, Grace 16, and Sawyer 13 are active in school, and the community– our son plays baseball with a local club team. Our schedule is kept busy with our kids but we love it. I still find time to volunteer with Make-A-Wish, St. Jude, and Poway Soroptimist. My husband, Pete, has been working in real estate full-time for 20 years and we make a great team – trust, integrity, hard work, and results – Our goal is to leverage our great teamwork and knowledge to help our clients buy and sell real estate in San Diego.

Testimonials

"Best realtor in San Diego! We used Janicke and her team to sell our home recently and they made it such an easy and pleasant experience. Sold our home within a weekend for above asking and what we were expecting! We were also under very tight timelines which Janicke did an amazing job managing. Overall, extremely impressed with Janicke Swanson and Associates!"
"Janicke represented us on the buyer's side for a beautiful new home in Carmel Valley. We got in contact with her, put in an offer, subsequently a counter offer, and closed on the house all in LESS THAN A MONTH! She was very communicative during the entire process. Her knowledge of the area and the crazy real estate market really showed! We also used the broker that she recommended. We couldn't havRead MoreRead Less
"When you’ve met the right realtor, you just know. That’s how I felt after having to part ways with not one but two realtors during my relocation house hunt, and met Janicke—third time was the charm. I was relocating from Texas and had visited San Diego two dozen years ago, meaning I knew little to nothing about the San Diego real estate market. I needed someone who was not only knowledgeable aboutRead MoreRead Less
"Janicke is a very experienced, creative and proactive agent who guides and partners with you through the entire process. She most recently listed and sold two of our properties in San Diego. She meticulously prepped the condos, advising us on upgrades needed, staging, and marketing. Her successful first weekend open houses resulted in multiple offers and both properties sold quickly and much ovRead MoreRead Less

She is very honest about the properties we were viewing and never rushed us into making a decision. She really has our best interest in mind. She’s good at communicating and neRead MoreRead Less
"I had the best experience working with Janicke Swanson! She is incredibly professional, hard working, and kind. She sold my condo in Carmel Valley/Del Mar for over asking price! We closed in less than 30 days, even with a fairly significant issue I had to work with my HOA on. Janicke helped in every way possible, even with this HOA situation that had nothing to do with the sale and she did not neeRead MoreRead Less
"Janicke recently helped me, and my fiancé purchase our first home. Let me say this, do not underestimate her experience in this industry. At first, it felt like I was working with a typical SALES rep, but that is not the case with Janicke. She has been doing this for years, and very quickly, my fiancé and I saw that experience at work. We truly felt like we were working with a friend who was goingRead MoreRead Less
"I've got to give a big shoutout to Janicke Swanson for the awesome experience they provided when my clients moved from Philly to La Jolla. Being a fellow real estate agent, I know how tricky cross-country moves can be, but working with these guys was an absolute breeze. Right off the bat, their professionalism was on point. They kept things crystal clear and totally upfront, which immediately cliRead MoreRead Less
