MEET JESSICA CURE:
Real Estate Consultant | Planning Strategist | Creative Problem Solver
Helping California investors, developers, and business owners transform complexity into clarity one high-value project at a time.
I’m Jessica Cure, and my superpower is solving complex real estate challenges with strategic, grounded solutions. From navigating code enforcement and permitting issues, to preparing feasibility studies for multi-acre parcels, to mapping out the next five steps of a high-stakes development, I see patterns and solutions others miss.
Â
I thrive in the gray area - the part of the project where most people stall or get overwhelmed. That’s where I come alive. I see your vision as a map of interlocking pieces: design, zoning, utility planning, permitting, construction, and market positioning. I bring it all together with precision, strategy, and creative problem-solving.
Over the past 20+ years, I’ve guided clients through:
-
Investment properties, renovations, and new builds
-
ADUs, short-term rentals, and mixed-use developments
-
Subdivisions, entitlements, and complex land use projects
-
Business conversions, mergers, and portfolio strategy
For 2026, I’m expanding my advisory and guide offerings across California, helping investors and developers navigate high-value real estate projects with clarity and confidence.
I don’t just manage projects — I solve what others can’t, streamline execution, and maximize long-term value.
“Effective real estate begins with strategy, insight, and the right guidance.”
From Construction Roots to Planning Expertise
Raised around construction and property development, I earned a B.A. in Interior Design from Interior Designers Institute in Newport Beach, CA and spent years honing my skills across design, business, and hands on project management. Today, I bring over 20 years of experience to real estate investors, developers, and small business owners across Southern California including Joshua Tree, Twentynine Palms, Yucca Valley, San Bernardino County, Orange County, and the greater Morongo Basin.
 My journey hasn’t been ordinary and that’s by design. I’ve spent years not only managing projects but also co-creating and growing multiple companies from the ground up, often staying on through key growth stages and then successfully exiting after a sale. That entrepreneurial mindset is at the core of everything I do. I understand what it takes to build something valuable because I’ve done it, again and again. Today, I bring that same level of care and strategic thinking to the real estate world, supporting investors and developers with high-level project management, design, and planning. In some cases, I even take an equity stake in the developments I help bring to life because when I believe in a project, I go all in.
I now serve as a Planning Commission Chair for the City of Twentynine Palms, which gives me the ability to support my local community and provides a front row seat to local land use, zoning ordinances, and development trends.Â
In addition to my consulting and planning work, I’m also a licensed Realtor with eXp Realty DRE02218627, specializing in helping real estate investors, developers, and small business owners find the right properties to match their goals. Whether that’s a fixer with potential, raw land for a new design build, or a design forward commercial opportunity.
I love the hunt for the perfect property, but I also love what happens after the purchase: helping clients shape the vision, timeline, and strategy to bring their project to life.
And when it comes time to sell? Marketing unique and luxury listings is one of my favorite parts of the job. In fact, in 2024, IÂ represented the highest-priced sale in Joshua Tree, successfully negotiating a deal just under $2M for a creative investor who trusted me to lead the process from offer to furniture acquisition and final walkthrough.
If you're an investor, developer, or small business owner ready to stop spinning your wheels and start building something meaningful (and profitable), I’d love to connect. Learn more about Cure Designs Services.

Based in the Desert with Coastal Perspective
I currently based in in Twentynine Palms, just minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, and spend time in Huntington Beach connecting with clients and staying inspired by the balance of built and natural environments. I like to say:
“The desert is just the beach without the ocean.”
Supporting Projects Nationwide No Matter Where You’re Building
While I’m deeply rooted in Southern California, my consulting services extend far beyond the desert. I work with real estate investors and homeowners across the U.S. who are navigating renovations, code compliance, project planning, and design challenges.
That’s why I’m launching a Virtual Group Consulting Program designed to support renovators and investors nationwide.Â
You’ll gain access to my step-by-step planning approach, real-time support, and a like-minded community of people who are building with purpose.
Because every successful project starts with a smart plan and the right guidance.
