I'm Diana Carvajal, MBA, a dual-licensed real estate and yacht advisor with Engel & Völkers Palm Beach, serving Boca Raton, Delray Beach and the Palm Beaches, with reach to Fort Lauderdale and Miami.

Before real estate, I was a Financial Advisor at Morgan Stanley and a Private Banker at Wells Fargo. I hold a BA in Accounting from Florida Atlantic University, an MBA in International Business and a BA in Fine Art in Graphic Design, and I spent years as a producer at two award-winning local production companies.

Today I advise on property decisions that sit inside a larger financial picture: a lease coming due, buying the building your business occupies, a 1031 exchange, an inherited estate, a liquidity event or a relocation to South Florida. I read the transaction the way your CPA, attorney or family office will.

My first clients, in my rookie year, were investors completing a 1031 exchange, and they still have me leasing those properties today. I have owned and operated rental condos myself, so I understand investment property from the owner's side.

My work spans waterfront and luxury residences, commercial property and, when the home comes with a dock, the yacht. Engel & Völkers' global network extends every search and every sale well beyond South Florida.

I work in English and Spanish, with conversational Italian and French. I host FLOH, a global real estate podcast on Financing, Leasing, Owning and Housing, and I am a member of Professional Women in Yachting.

Off-market opportunities and private sales are handled with complete discretion.
