About Marc – Your Laguna Woods Village Real Estate Guide

Helping 55+ Buyers and Their Families Move with Clarity and Confidence

Marc Blunden is a REALTOR® with eXp Realty and the creator of the Living in OC YouTube channel. His team specializes in Laguna Woods Village and nearby Orange County communities, helping 55+ buyers and their families make clear, confident decisions about where to live next.

His role is part educator, part guide, and part project manager. He’s here to simplify the details so you can focus on what matters most: lifestyle, comfort, and peace of mind.

Marc’s Background

A Teacher’s Mindset, Applied to Real Estate

Before real estate, Marc spent years teaching and coaching, which shaped how he communicates today. He learned how to break complex topics into simple, step-by-step explanations, and how to support people through big life decisions and changes.

He also runs Peak Life Fitness, where he works with clients on health, strength, and long-term habits. The common thread is coaching: meeting people where they are, helping them see the big picture, and supporting them as they move forward—one step at a time.

Why He Focuses on Laguna Woods Village

Why Laguna Woods Village?

Laguna Woods Village is unique. The combination of location, amenities, and community, all in a 55+ setting, makes it a special place for many buyers. But it also comes with its own learning curve: different mutuals, co-ops vs condos, monthly fees, rules, and approvals.

Marc chose to specialize here because he saw how overwhelming it can feel at first especially for buyers coming from outside Orange County or for adult children helping their parents. His goal is to be the calm, clear voice that makes Laguna Woods feel understandable and approachable.

How He Works with 55+ Buyers and Families

How Marc Works with 55+ Buyers and Families

Here’s what clients can expect when working with Marc:

  • Plain-English explanations. Marc walks clients through the different home types, costs, and rules in a way that’s easy to understand.
  • Respect for their pace. Whether someone wants to move quickly or needs time to explore, Marc is comfortable with both.
  • Support for families. When adult children are involved, Marc makes sure everyone stays informed and has a chance to ask questions.
  • Virtual and in-person options. He uses video tours, FaceTime, Zoom, and clear email follow-ups so clients can stay in the loop, even if they’re not in California yet.
  • No pressure. Marc’s role is to provide clarity and options, not to rush anyone into a decision.
