Douglas Elliman adds $50M+ Jackson Arnett Group in California

The Jackson Arnett Group, a top-producing luxury real estate team in Rancho Santa Fe, has joined Douglas Elliman Realty in Rancho Santa Fe and North County coastal San Diego after more than seven years at Compass, the brokerage announced Monday.

Led by Delorine Jackson and Ian Arnett, who both serve clients along side agent Bayley Bachiero, the team will be based in Douglas Elliman’s Del Mar office, overseen by Dan Tomasi, executive manager of sales for San Diego, according to the company announcement.

In 2024, The Jackson Arnett Group closed 17 transaction sides totally over $52 million in sales volume, according to RealTrends Verified data. This performance earned the small team the No. 188 rank in the state for sales volume in the 2025 RealTrends Verified Rankings.

Douglas Elliman said the team’s move will deepen its footprint in Rancho Santa Fe and along the North County coastal corridor, two of Southern California’s highest-priced and supply-constrained luxury markets.

“We are thrilled to welcome Delorine, Ian and Bayley to the Douglas Elliman family,” Michael Liebowitz, president and CEO of Douglas Elliman Inc., said in the announcement. “Their extraordinary track record, deep roots in Rancho Santa Fe and North County San Diego, and commitment to excellence align perfectly with our vision of empowering elite agents to deliver unmatched service in California’s premier luxury markets.”

Jackson, a longtime Rancho Santa Fe resident, brings more than 20 years of experience as a luxury real estate advisor and entrepreneur. Her background includes commercial property investments focused on revitalizing Rancho Santa Fe’s downtown village, tying the team’s business strategy directly to local economic development.

“After more than two decades building our business in Rancho Santa Fe and North County Coastal San Diego, this move to Douglas Elliman represents the next meaningful chapter for our team and our clients,” Jackson said in a statement.

Arnett, a native of the greater San Diego region, has been a licensed real estate agent for more than 27 years. He is known for pairing local market knowledge with a design-forward, ROI-focused approach to listings, helping clients increase equity through targeted upgrades, floor-plan changes and cost-effective improvements.

“Joining Douglas Elliman is a strategic and exciting step forward for our team,” Arnett said in a statement. “This move will enhance our ability to maximize opportunities for buyers and sellers — from strategic property enhancements to publicizing high-end transactions — all while maintaining the personal, integrity-driven service our clients have come to expect.”

“Delorine, Ian and Bayley’s unique blend of market mastery, entrepreneurial spirit and community impact provide unlimited opportunities for buyers and sellers across San Diego’s high-end residential sector,” Bill Begert, the chief operations officer of brokerage, Western Region, Douglas Elliman, said in a statement. “The addition of the Jackson Arnett Group underscores Elliman’s unwavering commitment to supporting top-producing teams.”
