Carey Kendall has been a resident of Montecito/Santa Barbara since 1975, after graduating with a B.A. in Economics.  In 1980, Carey completed the USC Broker Development Course, a comprehensive series of real estate courses over many months and later that year he earned his California Real Estate Broker License.  Over the past decades, a thorough knowledge and experience in residential, land and commercial properties has been developed through extensive sales in all these real estate arenas.

In 1995, Carey and his wife, Alix, built their horse ranch on 10-acres in Los Olivos, a township in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley.   Both Carey and Alix have followed their life long passion in the equine world with the development of their ranch and home.

Additionally, since the 1970’s Carey has followed his interest in pre-war and post-war vintage automobiles and this interest provided travels world wide, including participating in various car events across many regions of this country.  Through these associations, a vast network of clients and friends was built over many years.

He brings the worldwide contacts developed from this diverse background to the table in the marketing of special properties.
