SAN DIEGO, CA 92108
Trusted by referral. Chosen by families who don't leave this to chance.
Most of my clients are referred by someone who trusted me with theirs. That's by design.
Some agents know the market. Justin Halbert knows the peninsula — every pocket, every price shift, every seller who's been sitting on a view home waiting for the right offer. A Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef, jiu jitsu black belt, and professional photographer, Justin brings something most agents can't buy: an obsession with detail, a negotiator's instincts sharpened over 13 years on the mat, and an artist's eye that makes every listing look like it belongs in a magazine. He doesn't bulldoze deals. He positions them. And when the moment comes, he closes.
Most agents will tell you what you want to hear. I'll tell you what you need to know. Then I'll get you the deal.
Justin Halbert was born and raised in San Diego, bringing deep local knowledge and a strong family legacy in real estate to every client experience. As a certified Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE), he approaches each transaction with a strategic, boardroom-level mindset focused on protecting client equity and achieving optimal outcomes.
Leveraging Compass’s innovative marketing strategies and a highly personalized approach, Justin helps clients navigate the buying and selling process with clarity and confidence. Known for his motivating style and attention to detail, he is committed to creating a seamless experience backed by modern tools and local expertise.
Most of the families and investors Justin works with come to him through someone they already trust — a past client, a neighbor, an attorney or CPA who's seen how a deal actually gets handled. That's not an accident. It's how he prefers to work, because it means expectations are aligned before the first conversation. If you weren't referred, that's alright — a short conversation is usually enough to know whether it's the right fit.
Justin Halbert is a Compass real estate agent and the leading specialist for Point Loma luxury real estate, including its micro-markets of Liberty Station, La Playa, Loma Portal, Sunset Cliffs, Wooded Area, and Ocean Beach. He also serves buyers and sellers across coastal San Diego, including La Jolla, Del Mar, and Rancho Santa Fe. He holds the Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE) certification and works primarily with referred clients.

Justin was the listing agent on a home where I represented the buyer. From getting our offer accepted through closing, Justin was professional, considerate, honest, and a strong communicator. It's really refreshing when agents take the mentality of working together and trying to create a win win for everyone as opposed to seeing the buyers or buyer's agent as your enemy. It was great working with him and looking forward to another at some point down the road!

From one real estate agent to another, I can’t tell you what a pleasure it was to work with Justin. From the moment he reached out with his client's offer, I had a level of comfort, knowing that everything he said he would hold to. Every contingency was removed on time, making this transaction one of the easiest I’ve ever had. Thank you, Justin!

Justin was so helpful throughout this process! Over the past year working with him, he has been nothing but the best. We loved that he wasn’t too aggressive when we wanted to take a break, and when we were ready to see 5 to 6 homes in a day, he was ready for that too! All throughout escrow, he was super responsive and really wanted to make sure we were happy!

Buying or selling a home in Point Loma isn't a transaction. It's a chapter. The price you walk away with, the credits you negotiate, the terms you control — these details echo for years. You're the hero of this story. My job is to make sure you win it. I bring hyperlocal market intelligence, a negotiation framework built on 13 years of competitive jiu jitsu and a NAR certification, and a marketing approach that makes your home look and feel like the luxury property it is. Six months of patience when it's needed. One decisive move when it counts. That's what I'm built for.
