Collin Ellingson

About

Born and raised in the Pacific Palisades enclave of Rustic Canyon and now a longtime resident of Marina del Rey, Collin brings a true insider’s perspective to the coastal neighborhoods of West L.A. 

With 25+ years in real estate, he has successfully guided buyers, sellers, builders, and asset managers through hundreds of transactions—from luxury homes and ocean-view condominiums to architecturally significant townhomes and new development communities.

Collin’s reputation is built on three core values: integrity, communication, and precision. His clients know that from the first conversation to the final signature, every detail is handled with care, transparency, and intention. 

Buyers appreciate his calm, knowledgeable guidance and sharp negotiation skills. Sellers trust his ability to position a property strategically—especially in complex or shifting markets—to maximize value and achieve exceptional results.

A graduate of the University of California, Berkeley, Collin is deeply connected to the community and supports organizations including the Los Angeles LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce (LAGLCC), Sierra Club, and the Human Rights Campaign (HRC).

Outside of real estate, Collin is a lifelong musician and budding jazz vocalist.  He’s also a devoted classic car enthusiast, always looking for that next perfect ride.

I’m a Los Angeles based real estate advisor with over 25 years of experience, specializing in the coastal Westside including Venice, Marina del Rey, and Santa Monica. As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand how important it is to feel seen, respected, and advocated for throughout the buying or selling process.

My approach combines market expertise, thoughtful strategy, and a high level of personal service. Whether you're purchasing your first home, upgrading your lifestyle, or preparing to sell, I guide my clients with transparency and a focus on achieving the best possible outcome.

Real estate is personal. I’m here to make sure you feel confident every step of the way.
