As a resident of the city and an expert in Menifee, CA real estate, I can honestly say I love living here and I love helping my clients find homes in this expanding community. There has been so much growth and expansion in the city since bought my home in 2009. Since then, I’ve built my family and my business and we are so excited about the continued potential that Menifee has to offer. Some of my favorite things to do here are golf, eating out and going to community family events like movies in the park.
