Meet Sarah Ayala
Meet Sarah Ayala, your Riverside real estate broker.
Born and raised in Riverside, licensed since 2015, and a California Broker Associate. Here is what that means for how Sarah works.
Riverside is home
Sarah grew up in Riverside and still lives and works here. That matters less as a slogan than as a working habit: she knows how the city is laid out, how neighborhoods differ block by block, and which questions a buyer from outside the area would not think to ask. When a guide on this site describes a neighborhood, it reflects the way Sarah actually walks it with clients.
Licensing and brokerage
Sarah holds a California real estate broker license (DRE 01978160) and practices as a Broker Associate with Tower Real Estate Agency, Inc. (DRE 02255040), at 7197 Brockton Ave., Suite 1, Riverside, CA 92506. A broker license requires additional education, experience and examination beyond a salesperson license. You can verify her license status directly with the California Department of Real Estate.

Since 2015
Sarah began her real estate career in 2015 and has focused on helping buyers and sellers feel informed, supported and ready. First-time buyers and sellers are a particular focus: the process has more steps than most people expect, and she spends time explaining each one before it arrives.
How she works
- Start with your goals and timeline, not with a listing.
- Explain what a document, contingency or inspection finding means before asking you to decide.
- Coordinate with your lender, inspectors and escrow so the details do not fall to you.
- Give a straight answer, including when the answer is to wait or to walk away.
Where she works
Riverside and the surrounding Inland Empire. Sarah has written guides for several parts of the city; you can browse them on the Explore Riverside page or ask about an area that is not covered yet.
