Though luxury real estate professional Brad Trager was born and raised in the Midwest, he has been enjoying the beautiful California weather since he moved here in 1995. Since then, he has become an expert in all things South County and beyond — and has helped hundreds of families realize their home buying and selling dreams along the way.
Trustworthy, discreet, and seasoned in the art of helping clients experience real estate transactions of value and reward, Brad has built a strong network of industry connections over the course of his 19-year career. Not only is he passionate about real estate, but it’s also in his blood — Brad’s mother was a highly successful agent for over 35 years, and her immense knowledge was passed down to him.
Having transitioned into the field of residential real estate from a successful tenure as a sales executive, Brad is adept at negotiating the most favorable deals and remaining organized throughout the course of a transaction. Specializing in the Talega, The Reserve, and Marblehead communities of San Clemente, he is consistently ranked as one of the top producers in south Orange County. Brad’s dedication to his clientele and commitment to raising the bar when it comes to personalized service place him among the upper echelon of agents.
A former collegiate swimmer, Brad attributes his competitive edge to his days powering through the pool. He loves giving back to the community by working with active military officers. One of Brad’s top priorities is his family, and he is a proud military dad. He loves to spend time with his wife Truthy and their four sons, all of whom play competitive soccer at the highest level. Brad’s son Tristan played for four years at the United States Air Force Academy and was selected in the 2022 MLS Super Draft by Atlanta United FC; Carson currently plays at the United States Coast Guard Academy; Kai recently graduated from San Clemente High School and will join his two older brothers in serving their country and playing at the United States Coast Guard Academy also; and the youngest, Koa, plays for San Diego Surf Soccer Club and is involved in Civil Air Patrol. He will attend SCHS in their dual immersion Spanish program.
I’m a newly commissioned Marine Corps officer who recently graduated from The United States Air Force Academy and I was looking to buy my first home in Florida. Brad, being a member of Next Move Military, was able to guide me through the home-buying process, making it extremely easy and painless. I cannot recommend Brad enough, and I’m so thankful he helped me find and buy my brand-new house!

Brad was a fantastic partner throughout the process. Being out of town meant that Brad had to do all of the work necessary to sell our home, which he did flawlessly. He ensured our tenants had left everything in good order, and he organized outside contractors to fix a few things. In fact, he went above and beyond by helping to match the colors of the paint and even going to the store to purchase it. I would highly recommend Brad to anyone - he is a true professional and goes beyond what is expected.

Brad is terrific to work with. He is extremely knowledgeable about local market conditions and offers top-notch, insightful advice. He also consistently provides timely, personalized service and is exceptionally attentive to his client's needs and concerns. Brad has been my "go to" listing agent for more than ten years.

Brad helped worked tirelessly with us to help us find our dream home. He works with us during a difficult time for buyers and helped us keep our hopes up during the difficult buying processes.

Brad Trager has our highest recommendation! His dedication, patience, kindness, and responsiveness were unmatched during me and my husband's search for the perfect place. My husband (1stLt USMC) and I (LTJG USN) are a dual-military active duty couple, and we were in contact with Brad regularly during our PCS. He was determined to find us the place that met our criteria in a timely manner. Despite the stress of moving, we always knew Brad had our best interest in mind, and he was able to significantly reduce the stress of finding a place to live. He was thoroughly involved in the process, from his willingness to coordinate virtual showings to helping...
