Profile
Ernie has consistently served as a Top Producing agent with Frank Howard Allen. In addition to handling sales for traditional Residential, Luxury and Commercial properties, he has successfully sold architectural estates for designers such as one of our very own distinguished local fine art sculpture artists living locally on the North Coast. Ernie naturally gravitated to his interest in the local wine making region, successfully selling country property, including unimproved land, ranches and vineyards as well as selling North Coast sea view estates. At the same time his team is eager and willing to work any property.

Service
Ernie is recognized for his sales team’s approach to all specialty properties. He has helped buyers operating under LLC or designated Corporations to acquire their specialty or investment property and he offers desirable counsel that continues even after the sale. Mr. Basoco provides homeowners with original drawings, resources on maintaining the integrity of the property, and information about what best the wine region affords in lifestyle and luxury. Ernie is recognized as a professional by the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing and by the Wall Street Journal.

Personal
Endorsed by local attorneys specializing in estate planning, real estate trusts, and estate administration, Ernie has cultivated a small business network with other industry professionals who value exceptional service and skill. The local quality of life in Northern California’s wine making region is certainly matched by a local diversified economy, with the sense of many local family businesses and small business operations flourishing. The quality of a sales transaction with Ernie is equally important and enforced by his commitment in the following areas: Communication and follow through, personalized service, competence, professionalism.

Achievements
Before embarking on his real estate career Ernie spent the prior seven years in marketing and sales, building early stage development companies, serving small and medium commercial enterprise technology businesses. Ernie’s first early stage company enterprise role began without a marketing team until being assigned these initial responsibilities, resulting later in a company acquisition for $325 million. He also worked and traveled extensively during this time to Italy, France, Japan, and South America. Ernie first began his career as an associate at Teradyne located in Agoura Hills, CA in 1993. He is a graduate of both the school of Engineering at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and the Graziadio School of Business at Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA.
