During stressful days as a political operative, Levi would often joke about leaving it all behind to sell real estate in Palm Springs. That sounded far-fetched when surrounded by snow and ice in Maine or in a DC office on Capitol Hill, but nonetheless, it became his reality.
Raised in Orange County and having attended college in Los Angeles, Levi’s return to Southern California—living between San Diego and Palm Springs—felt like a giant exhale. Becoming a real estate advisor combined all of his passions: real estate investment, second homes, resort-style living, and helping people make pivotal life decisions with an excellent, personalized experience.
Starting his real estate career on a high-producing, competitive team, Levi quickly learned the ins and outs of negotiating contracts and protecting his clients’ best interests in fast-paced markets. Grateful for this crash course in real estate, he knew he wanted to combine his experience as an investor, negotiator, and advocate with a concierge-level service. Thus, Levi Knapp Real Estate was born.
With homes in Carmel Valley (San Diego), downtown Palm Springs, and PGA West in La Quinta, Levi understands the excitement—and sometimes apprehension—that comes with buying or selling a home. He recognizes that second-home buyers can’t always be present, and they need someone they trust to be their “boots on the ground.” Levi also knows that investors require more than just a “good feeling” about a property; they need concrete, expert guidance. Every community is unique, and for many buyers, it’s about finding the right “vibe,” not just the right house.
As Steven, a Rancho Mirage client, remarked: “Levi didn’t just help us find a house; he helped us find home.”
Paul, who recently sold his home in PGA West, said: “If we’re lucky, a few times in life, we meet someone who goes above and beyond our expectations. Levi is that kind of person. Honest, sincere, and tireless—we were lucky to have him.”
