About Candace
Candace Barry is a Luxury REALTOR® with more than 13 years of experience specializing in coastal San Diego Real Estate. As a member of The Clinton Selfridge Group at Pacific Sotheby's International Realty, Candace combines the personalized service of a trusted advisor with the experience, resources, and collective expertise of one of San Diego's most respected Real Estate teams.
With approximately $92 million in career sales, Candace has built her business on deep local market knowledge, sophisticated negotiation skills, strategic marketing, attention to detail, and, above all, lasting relationships with her clients.
Based in La Jolla, Candace specializes in some of San Diego's most sought-after communities, including La Jolla, Del Mar, Pacific Beach, Mission Hills, Bankers Hill, Downtown San Diego, and surrounding coastal neighborhoods. Her experience encompasses luxury estates, single-family homes, high-rise residences, condominiums, and investment properties.
As a member of The Clinton Selfridge Group, Candace is part of a team that brings decades of collective experience and an established network of relationships to every transaction. This team environment allows her to offer clients the personal attention and accessibility they expect while also benefiting from the collaboration, market insight, resources, and reach of a larger, highly experienced group.
Candace believes exceptional Real Estate service is about far more than buying or selling a property. It is about understanding what matters most to each client, anticipating challenges before they arise, communicating consistently, and providing thoughtful guidance throughout the process. Known for her responsiveness, honesty, empathy, and ability to remain calm and solution-oriented, Candace works tirelessly to make each transaction feel informed, strategic, and seamless.
With an average career sale of approximately $1.8 million, Candace has developed a nuanced understanding of the factors that influence value throughout San Diego's coastal market. She brings a strategic approach to pricing, positioning, presentation, negotiation, and marketing, while tailoring her strategy to the unique goals of each client and property.
Originally from Montauk, New York, Candace now calls San Diego home, where she lives with her husband and four children. Her East Coast roots and years of experience in the San Diego market have shaped a style that is both personable and professional. Whether representing a luxury seller, an experienced investor, or a buyer searching for the right place to call home, Candace approaches every relationship with the same level of dedication and care.
For Candace, the greatest measure of success is not simply closing a transaction — it is earning the trust of her clients and becoming the person they know they can turn to long after the keys have been handed over.
What luxury really means
Through Pacific Sotheby's International Realty, Candace and The Clinton Selfridge Group have access to the exceptional marketing capabilities, global network, and internationally recognized reputation of the Sotheby's brand. For Candace, luxury is not simply about a property's price point — it is about the level of service, discretion, expertise, presentation, and attention to detail provided throughout the experience.
“Candace was amazing to work with and helped me find my dream home. She was patient with me and incredibly supportive and knowledgeable as I navigated this process for the first time. She was a dream to work with and made the process so easy for me.”
