MICHELE DOWNING

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, ESTATES DIVISION / REALTOR

Compass

I have worked in real estate since 1988. In 2012 I had the opportunity to become a Founding Partner of Partners Trust Real Estate Brokerage in Pasadena. Then in 2017 Partners Trust Real Estate and Pacific Union International merged to create the #1 Independently Owned and Operated Real Estate Company in California. Today we are all COMPASS.

I have been recognized for my uniquely tenacious, nurturing, and supportive service. I am a full-time professional who takes pride in quality representation, skillful negotiation, and aggressive marketing. These qualities and abilities have led to numerous recognitions both at COMPASS and with the local community.

I also understand the importance of always keeping my clients’ best interests at heart. My reputation for honesty, trustworthiness, and fairness are the cornerstones that define my character and competence. My clients find that I have a unique ability to identify what is truly important to them and to then create swift results that fulfill those chosen dreams and desires.

My husband and I have lived in South Pasadena for over 35 years where we raised our two daughters. Now our daughters are married and we are blessed with three grandchildren. My longevity in the area has provided me with exceptional knowledge of all our local communities throughout the San Gabriel Valley. I am currently a proud longtime member of the Pasadena Foothills Association of Realtors and South Pasadena Chamber of Commerce.

I have been South Pasadena’s top producing residential agent for nine consecutive years. I was 2022 Broker Agent Advisor 5 Star Award Winner. Named one of Los Angeles magazine’s 2023 Real Estate All-Stars, I sold close to $200 million in 2021 and 2022.
