My Story

Henry Ota isn’t your typical real estate advisor—he never wanted to be.
He got his start in 2006 in the concrete crucible of New York City, navigating complex transactions by day and running his own restaurant by night. Since then, his work has spanned San Francisco, San Diego, and Mexico—markets he’s chosen not for flash, but for their relevance to how and where people truly want to live.

With nearly two decades of experience, Henry takes a selective, client-first approach. He’s not chasing volume. He’s curating long-term fits—for buyers, for sellers, and for the homes themselves. His background in mortgage finance, entrepreneurship, and sustainable agriculture gives him a rare perspective that blends financial rigor with lifestyle sensibility.

Whether you’re relocating your family, investing in a second home, or looking for a legacy property, Henry looks beyond the surface. He weighs the light, the layout, the long-term value—and the logistics, like where the dog goes, where the kids grow, and how the numbers hold up in a real market cycle.

He doesn’t advertise every deal. He keeps his client list private. And he only takes on what he believes in. Because to Henry, real estate isn’t just about what you buy—it’s about how you live once you’re there.

Advisory, not sales. Selective, not transactional. This is real estate, the way it should be.
