Vida Dashloo & Dar Mardan

The Dynamic Duo

Dar Mardan is a CPA and holds an MBA, with a career built on finance and executive operations, including CFO and COO roles at multiple companies, before founding Vidar Group Real Estate. That background shapes how we work: we treat every transaction as a financial decision as much as a real estate one, protecting the wealth you've built and helping you make sound, clear-eyed decisions about what's next. Vida Dashloo brings nearly 15 years as a licensed Realtor, with hands-on experience in interior design, remodeling, and construction. Together, we advise Orange County homeowners through downsizing, retirement transitions, estate planning, and the major life changes, marriage, growing families, loss, and divorce, that lead people to reconsider their home. We take your best interest seriously, and we guide you with honesty, clarity, and care. When you work with us, you're not just a client, you're family, and you'll remain family long after the transaction is over.

Guiding Homeowners Through Downsizing & Retirement

For homeowners over 55, a move is rarely just a transaction — it's a decision that touches taxes, timing, family, and decades of equity built into a single asset. This is where Dar's background as a CPA and MBA does its best work. He helps clients downsizing out of a family home, retiring and relocating to be closer to family or into a lower cost-of-living state, or simply sitting on a property they've owned for twenty, thirty, or more years think through the full picture — capital gains exposure, stepped-up basis, Proposition 19 tax-basis transfers, and how to reinvest the proceeds in a way that supports the next chapter instead of complicating it.
Vida brings her own eye to the process. Nearly 15 years spent finding great properties, and knowing exactly which improvements make a longtime home sell for what it's actually worth, so clients aren't leaving money on the table on either side of the move. And because these decisions rarely live in isolation, Dar works alongside a network of trust and estate-planning attorneys and mortgage brokers who specialize in this same 55+ demographic — so a downsizing sale, a retirement transition, or an out-of-state relocation gets one coordinated plan for the estate planning, the financing, and the real estate, instead of three separate answers from three separate people.

Our strength as a company comes from the strength of our leadership—an experienced and long-tenured team. With our advice & services we help clients fulfill their real estate needs!
