Localist Realty
About
A licensed broker since 2005 and a top producer since 2010, Tom Bashe’s success is fueled by strategic thinking, ongoing research and analysis, and an uncompromising client-centered approach where he makes himself available day and night, seven days a week. Over his career, Tom has facilitated more than $200 million in transaction volume, and before founding Localist, he ranked in the top 1% of more than 90,000 agents, internationally for one of the largest brokerage firms in the world.
Born and raised throughout Southern California, primarily in the Temecula Valley, Tom has expansive knowledge of the Inland Empire. As a youth, he developed a passion for real estate while visiting open houses with his parents. He loved the different styles of homes and how people chose to style them, and he became hooked. Tom received his real estate license before graduating high school. At the age of 20, he passed the broker’s exam, and in 2006, at the age of 21, he became one of the youngest real estate brokers in the industry.
From 2009 to 2015, Tom’s main focus was real estate investing. He became a master negotiator, learned how to analyze properties to determine current and future values, and how best to market properties throughout Southern California — all skills that now help him advise clients to reach their real estate goals and, in turn, set them up to create more wealth.
Tom prides himself in offering high-touch service where he is a resource to clients during and after their time working together. Driven by gratitude, Tom’s main objective is to help anyone who asks. From first-time homebuyers to investors looking to purchase rentals to sellers of everything from condos to vineyards, Tom has the vast knowledge, experience, and heart to deliver the best outcomes possible. He takes the time needed to form strong connections and fully understand and fulfill his clients’ needs.
Outside the office, Tom enjoys spending time with his wife and three daughters, working with his hands, and learning about investing, health, economics, government, history, philosophy, and travel.
