Approachable, focused and detail-oriented, Deneka Waddell is a valued member of the Grauman Rosenfeld Group at The Agency Corona del Mar. A longtime Southern California resident, Deneka deeply understands the market, the region's appeal and the unique lifestyle it offers. While her expertise is broad, Deneka specializes in master plan communities and exclusive off-market listings. "Real estate has always been my passion," says Deneka. "I believe it's not just about buying a house but creating a lifestyle. I love making clients' dreams a reality and showing them they can attain what they might have thought was impossible." Deneka's availability and quick communication style is an essential part of her service and a point of pride. "I make sure my clients know--and feel--they are my number one priority at all times," says Deneka. "It's also so important for me to empower my clients by educating them as we go through the process. I consider myself their personal guide and an at-the-ready resource." Known for her steadfast professionalism and strong work ethic, prior to real estate, Deneka served the community for two decades as a dental hygienist, managing a wide range of personalities, procedures and complex tasks. In her free time, Deneka can be found with her husband, cheering on their son at football games, or enjoying the beach with her family and their two dogs--a miniature Golden Retriever and Maltipoo. She also regularly organizes annual toy drives for charities, including Toys for Tots and Spark of Love.
