Buying and selling a home in Vacaville
Homes and real estate guidance in Vacaville, Solano County.
Vacaville, in my words
I live in Vacaville, so when I talk about it I'm not reading off a listing. The town has a mix of historic character, established neighborhoods and newer development, with rolling hills as a backdrop in parts of it. It has agricultural roots, a historic downtown and the Nut Tree, which people here know well.
Downtown has local shops, restaurants and places to gather. Other parts of town have the larger shopping centers and the everyday conveniences. And there's outdoor space close by. Lagoon Valley and the Peña Adobe have trails, open space and scenic views, and Browns Valley has hiking too. You can spend time outside and still be near shopping and dining.
If you're visiting for the first time, I'd start downtown and at Lagoon Valley, then drive through a few different neighborhoods. The variety is a big part of what makes Vacaville worth getting to know.
How I work in Vacaville
I'm Adriana Cueva, a bilingual REALTOR® with Realty ONE Group FOX, and my office is at 11 Town Square Place in Vacaville. Most of my work is here and in the towns around it. I help homeowners who are selling, buyers who are looking, and people who are doing both at once.
If you're selling, I prepare, price and market your home using the steps in how I sell homes. If you're buying, I walk you through how I help you buy a home. And if you need to sell and buy together, move-up buying and selling is how I plan both as one.
Neighborhoods and communities
Vacaville's homes vary a lot depending on where you look. Here are the places I know best.
Browns Valley. The neighborhood where I live. Its homes were built from the late 1980s through the early 2020s, and it's close to town without being in the center of it.
North Vacaville. A mix of established ranch-style homes, spacious two-story homes and newer construction. Around North Orchard and Monte Vista, many homes were built in the 1960s and 1970s, and North Village adds newer options from the mid-2000s on.
Other newer communities include Roberts' Ranch and Lagoon Valley. If you're looking at one of them, tell me, and I'll go over what to ask about it.
The homes you'll find
Near downtown you'll find older cottages and historic homes. Beyond that there are single-story ranch homes and two-story homes in established subdivisions. Much of Vacaville's housing was built from the 1970s through the 1990s, so there's a good selection of established homes, alongside the newer communities for buyers who want something more recent.
That range is why I start with your goals and your budget, and not with a street. A buyer who wants an older home with character and a buyer who wants a newer floor plan are looking at different parts of town, and I'd rather help you find the right part than show you everything.
