About Us

Positive – Focused – Leadership

Taylor Hoving Realty Group was founded in 2014 and has quickly earned a reputation as the agency with the most experienced, professional, and integrity-based associates in San Luis Obispo County. Intent on enhancing the real estate experience and satisfying the needs of clients and their agents, the firm’s culture is based on a simple foundation:  providing a superior customer experience. The owners are committed to supporting their REALTORS® and assuring that their clients’ best interests always come first during the sometimes complex and fast paced real estate transaction.

Co-owners Ken Taylor and Glenn Hoving, both hailing from national franchise backgrounds, believe the big-box, training-ground real estate model has become increasingly cumbersome and expensive for clients and agents alike.

What clients want and expect in this complex real estate market is a high level of quality service from an experienced and knowledgeable professional. With that in mind, Taylor Hoving Realty Group is structured to accommodate the needs of the area’s best and most experienced real estate agents and their clientele.
