Mahlia Rittenhouse

Real estate has never been just about homes for me—it's about helping people navigate some of life's biggest decisions with confidence.

For more than 15 years, I've had the privilege of helping buyers and sellers throughout coastal South Orange County, from Laguna Beach and Dana Point to Newport Beach and the surrounding communities. As a Luxury Real Estate Advisor with the Tim Smith Real Estate Group at Coldwell Banker Realty, I combine the personalized attention of a boutique advisor with the resources, marketing expertise, and reach of one of Orange County's most respected luxury real estate teams.

My business has grown almost entirely through referrals and repeat clients, something I'm incredibly grateful for and a reflection of the relationships I work hard to build.

I believe every client deserves a highly personalized experience. Whether preparing a luxury home for market, helping a growing family find the right neighborhood, or negotiating a complex transaction, I'm known for being strategic, responsive, and fully invested from beginning to end. My goal is simple: to make every move feel seamless while helping my clients achieve the best possible outcome.

I believe luxury real estate isn't defined by price point—it's defined by the level of care, communication, and service every client receives.

As a mother of two young children, I understand that buying or selling a home is often about much more than real estate. It's about creating a lifestyle, finding community, and making thoughtful decisions for the future. That perspective shapes how I guide my clients every step of the way.

Outside of work, you'll usually find me exploring a new destination with my family, hiking or plotting some adventure. I'm endlessly curious, passionate about travel, the environment and exceptional hospitality—always inspired by beautiful homes and the unique communities that make coastal Orange County such an incredible place to live.

Whether you're buying, selling, or simply exploring what's next, I'd be honored to serve as your trusted advisor and help you make confident, informed decisions every step of the way.
