Sotheby’s International Realty

Over the course of her 20-year career as a Realtor, Sanda has worked with incredible clients, negotiating their real estate transactions for homes in the best neighborhoods on the Westside. Because of Sanda's involvement with Rotary International and Chambers of Commerce, many of her clients have been referred to her from her networking in the Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades and Brentwood communities in which she serves. She is presently the President of the Rotary Club of Pacific Palisades, is on the Board of the Chamber of Commerce there and is in MOCA Director's Forum 2009-2010.

Sanda was raised in Milan, Italy and came to the United States as a teenager. She received a BA degree from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, an MA degree at the University of Illinois, Champagne-Urbana, and did postgraduate work at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. In 1976 Sanda moved to Los Angeles, where she became an entrepreneur and started a well-known catering company called Aubergine & Assoc.

In 1989 Sanda became a Realtor on the Westside. Because of the down market at the time, she quickly had to become a skilled negotiator. A consummate negotiator now, Sanda continues to obtain the highest net for her sellers and the best value price for her buyers.

Sanda is proud of her accomplishments as a Realtor and has a real passion for seeing the potential of a property, as well as making suggestions on how to improve it to bring out its highest value. This, according to Sanda, can be done in any market. To this end Sanda has many connections she works with in the design and remodeling industry for referrals to her clients.

Sanda views herself as a Realtor who is an advisor and a negotiator. She sees the real estate market through the eyes of a professional looking at neighborhoods and properties with future potential in mind. She analyzes sales trends and is thus better able to assist her clients with real estate goals.

Sanda and her Italian husband live in Santa Monica. Both can be seen on Caravan every Tuesday looking for the best deals from the most expensive estates to the cutest condos on the Westside, and in their leisure time they go to the leading contemporary art galleries and museums and jazz events throughout town.
