One of the larger neighborhoods, Harrison Park, borders the Cleveland National Forest and Cuyamaca Rancho State Park. Mountain Lion sightings are not uncommon. The 2007 Cedar Fire burned all but three of the homes in this area. As a result the homes are built after 2003 and most have built-in fire prevention measures.

Deborah and Erika sold my house for a fair price in just a couple days. The whole deal was seamless and convenient. They even supplied me with a flash drive containing all the transaction records. I would use Orchard Realty again for sure.

Erika Wright from Orchard Realty recently helped my wife and I purchase a beautiful piece of land. She was extremely supportive throughout the process and went above and beyond to dig up the information we needed to make a truly informed decision. She was very knowledgeable about the area and made the experience very positive.
She walked the property with us virtually on more than one occasion and helped explain nuances about the local area. Our experience couldn't have been better.

Erika Wright with Orchard Reality did an amazing job of guiding my husband and I, through the sale and purchase of our new home. Along with Deborah Kerch’s support throughout this process. We had a great experience and we’re grateful and feel truly blessed! Erika was professional and kept us posted throughout this exciting, yet stressful time. She was honest and real, which we really appreciated! Also, her knowledge and insight on the horse property we purchased was extremely helpful with having no prior experience with this type of property! Overall, we’re truly satisfied and happy with our experience with Erika Wright and Orchard Reality! Erika Wright went above and beyond and has reached out to check in and see how we’re settling in our new home! So thoughtful, we highly recommend Erika Wright and Orchard Reality!!!

Working with Erika from Orchard realty has been a massive blessing to our family. Erika was able to be the "matchmaker" getting us connected to the sellers of a property that exceeds our expectations. Erika was exceptionally responsive, knowledgeable and down to earth, demonstrating she really cared about it working out for the best of both buyer and seller. Also the sellers agent Allison from Orchard, was another positive in our transaction. Both Erika and Allison have a depth of knowledge in not just real estate, but also the history and details of Julian and the surrounding area. This was very helpful in being new to the area. To this day, Erika still offers support when I have questions, need a referral etc. Highly recommend!

Selling or buying a home can be stressful, but thanks to working with Deborah Kerch and her team of amazing realtors, my experience was pleasant.
Deborah is experienced, skilled, smart, efficient, professional and fun to work with. She guided me through every step of the process, and it didn’t take long before the sign was up and the house was sold!
I highly recommend Deborah Kerch and her team at Orchard Realty in Julian, California.

Erika Wright helped us through a very complex and long short sale. She did an excellent job throughout the process. She was very professional, patient and kept us updated all along. And when we finally moved in, she was a wonderful resource for local information and services. We would work with her again without hesitation.
