Ratings & Reviews

Coby managed the sale of our house with precision. He drove the process which in turn alleviated a lot of stress that comes with selling a home. His negotiating skills are second to none. Overall, we had a excellent experience working with Coby and his team and if the opportunity presents itself we will work with him again.

It was such a pleasure working with Coby. The second I told him I was looking for a home, he was able to find me several options that fit my needs. He is very knowledgable about inventory and the local area. He was very willing to work with me and guide me as I deliberated until I found the perfect place. Once we found a home, he helped with the negotiation, walk through, and follow ups. Truly full service! I look forward to working with him again!

We love working with Coby. He’s amazing at finding homes we can’t find on our own, he’s very responsive, and adapts to our crazy schedule. He spent a lot of time with us to find the right home for our family.

Coby was always available although we looked at dozens of objects. Still he was never trying to push us into a contract we were not fully happy with. A very helpful Realtor like like you would want.

Excellent experience. Coby found my son a perfect apartment in Playa Vista. We live on the East Coast and have no local knowledge of Los Angeles. Coby listened to what my son wanted, and found a great apartment that was located in a safe area and only a few miles from his office. Would highly recommend Coby.
