“I previously used Steven Padilla to buy and sell previous properties. It was his high standards, honesty, communication, and expertise that resulted in selecting him to sell two properties and buy a new property. My sale involved two 1031 Exchanges towards the purchase of a new property. His expertise in understanding the complexities of handling not one, but two 1031 Exchanges was invaluable, especially understanding critical timelines when selling the first property at Fraser Street in Los Angeles. I highly recommend Steven (and his support team).”

“Amy is a great agent that provides personal experience and approaches each sale with dedication and care. She was able to help me navigate complicated transaction that involved difficult market conditions and dreadful uncooperative HOA. Amy get things done, my apartment was sold in a matter of couple of months, while other apartments in that building have been “active/for sale” for almost a year now. You can see her experience in negotiations, market conditions and sales techniques, get your property sold with a peace of mind. I really enjoyed working with her, as she stayed on top of all details and communicated every new update to me regularly. Thank you so much Amy for your help!”
“David Salmonson helped us both sell our home and buy our next one, and he was incredible from start to finish. He is super punctual, incredibly diligent, and makes sure every single box is checked and deadlines are met. Beyond being a true professional, he has a great sense of humor that keeps the stress down, and he’s refreshingly honest and candid when you need it most. Another huge bonus is his contact list—he seemingly knows a top-tier person for everything, whether you need home repairs, landscaping, or anything else during a move. We couldn’t recommend David more highly!”
“We had a great experience working with Shavarsh on our home purchase. He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and always quick to respond whenever we had questions. We really appreciated the honest advice, attention to detail, and guidance throughout the entire process. He made everything feel much easier and less stressful, and we always felt confident we were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend Shavarsh anyone looking to buy a home!”
“Carol was a dream to work with. She was professional, knowledgeable, and a great communicator. She helped me find a tenant for a rental quickly after one open house. I wouldn't hesitate to work with her again, whether for a rental, purchase, or sale. Well-deserved 5*s.”
“We have had the distinct pleasure of working with Kyle, Anthony, and Pilar on the purchase of our DTLA home. They are such an excellent and exceptional team. From the beginning to the end, we experienced tremendous support and attention. If you are looking to buy a home, you can’t go wrong with the SERENE team!”
“Diya helped us find our dream home in Simi Valley, and honestly the whole experience was amazing. From day one she made us feel completely comfortable and kept us informed at every single step. Anytime we had a question or a concern, she was on it. She’s so knowledgeable about the area and the market and she truly goes above and beyond for her clients. What I loved most was that it never felt like a stiff business transaction. It felt like going house shopping with a girlfriend who just happens to know everything about real estate. She's warm, she's patient, and she made what could have been a really stressful process feel almost fun. She also connected us with some wonderful service recommendations that made the whole move so much easier. You can tell she's experienced and reliable in how she handles everything, not just in the big moments but in all the little details too. We're so happy we went with her and we're already planning to use her to sell our condo next. I can’t imagine a better experience than working with Diya.”
“Brad Korb and his team are the best in the business. One of their strengths is their listening skills. They hear your concerns and explain the process of selling your house, escrow, etc. clearly. Most importantly, they answer their phone! I have bought and sold ten houses over the years and have been frustrated by sales people who let their phones go to VM all the time. Brad is very busy and always sets up a 2-3 hour window in the morning and afternoon to return calls. His other staff always seems available to answer questions. Brad got me 18 offers in the first week and sold my home for $86,000 above the appraised value. Brad Korb's office was my "Dream Team!"”
“Laura's attention to detail for staging and marketing are amazing. She's very willing to lend a hand to make sure the sale goes quickly and without missing a step. I'd highly recommend Laura to anyone wanting to sell their home.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Beatrix Whipple to guide us through buying our first home! From the very beginning, she was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, supportive, and always willing to go above and beyond to help us navigate the process. What really sets her apart is that her support didn’t end once we closed on our house. She continues to be an amazing resource, always happy to answer questions, offer advice, and help in any way she can. We’re so grateful for everything she has done for our family, and to top it all off, we’re lucky enough to now call her our neighbor! We truly couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“My daughter was looking for a new home so we contacted Steve. I met Steve a few years ago and he always stayed in touch. When we went to look at different homes Steve always had the information on each home and our appointments confirmed. When we opened Escrow he was there to guide us at every step. I appreciated that very much as Escrow is daunting at times! Steve went out of town for a few days during our Escrow but always kept in touch via calls, texts and emails. We never felt stranded!! I couldn't imagine going thru the process without Steve. Thank you to Steve for being so wonderful and helpful!”
“The amount of work and effort that Justin Bonney of Clear Way Real Estate put into selling our Lake Balboa home was incredible. The home needed work. Justin acted like a general contractor to coordinate his handyman, plumber, A/C guy, and landscaper. These contractors were all very happy to do the work on short notice for for Justin’s clients. And they did it based on our very limited budget. It blew us away. The repairs Justin’s team did for us (replacing old French doors, touch-up paint, replacing cabinetry, repairing electrical outlets) cost us about one third the amount quoted to us by independent general contractors. With Justin’s strategy, his guidance, and his network of realtors and clients, we had three good offers within two weeks and were happy with the price. Escrow closed in about 20 days. It is clear to me now that not all realtors are the same. Justin has developed these relationships and he puts them to work for his clients. His efforts far exceeded our expectations.”
“JR did an amazing job helping me find my first home. JR was a great communicator and advocate for me. I had specific things I wanted in my first home with one of them being finding a move in ready turn key home. Once we found the property, JR put in an offer and I was luckily selected out of the other few offers the buyer had received. Despite the home buying process being quite overwhelming for me at times JR made the process absolutely seamless and painless. After the inspection of the home, we found a few issues that JR took care of quickly and negotiated with the seller all the necessary repairs that needed to be done. JR was able to negotiate with the buyer installing a new plumbing system and other fixes as well. Overall, JR did an amazing job and I will gladly use his services again for any real estate services!”
“We hired Brad and the Keyes team to help us buy a new home in Eagle Rock. We already lived in the area and had a decent idea of what we were looking for, but Brad's expertise and experience in Eagle Rock were invaluable to our home search. He showed us a range of houses at varying price points and conditions (from total fixers to turnkey) to help us get a feel for what was out there. He steered us away from homes he didn't think were a good fit and made sure we understood what it really took to take on a project. Ultimately we decided a fixer wasn't for us and he found us an incredible off market gem that we purchased. Without his expertise and relationships we would probably still be looking. The whole Keyes team was great and they really work together as a team: Annie and Josh both showed us properties on short notice when Brad wasn't available and Narine was super on top of things and communicative during escrow. Overall it was a great experience and we would hire them again!”
“Sharon was an amazing realtor! She helped us navigate the housing market and all of the different listings to help find our home. She is persistent, knowledgeable, & adaptable. Whatever home you are looking to buy, Sharon can make it happen! 10/10!”
“Dora represented us as first-time buyers in Culver City. Her communication was consistent, her search was responsive to our preferences, and her negotiating made a real difference in a competitive sale. She supported us through closing and continued to follow up after we moved in. I would recommend her to buyers at any stage.”
“As a first time homebuyer, I was both excited and nervous about the homebuying process regardless of how much I researched and prepared. My partner and I were actually planning to wait until next year but all the stars aligned and we’re now living in our dream home, and we couldn’t have done it without Brandon! With a wealth of experience, Brandon helped make the homebuying process less daunting by thoroughly explaining each step along the way and communicating with us clearly and consistently. When we first met, we’d planned on just a house tour and Brandon was welcoming, friendly and informative without pressuring us to move our timeline. He then referred us to an open house in Castaic/Santa Clarita and as soon as we stepped in, we knew it was our forever home. We contacted Brandon immediately afterwards and he helped make it happen, working expeditiously to get our offer letter to the seller and connecting us with a trusted lender who we ultimately decided to use. And when we discovered that there was another offer on the house, Brandon advocated for us with the listing agent and guided us on how to make a competitive offer. His expertise, negotiation skills and strong business relationships were instrumental in getting our offer accepted. Soon after, we were full force with paperwork and necessary next steps. Whenever I had questions, which I had plenty of, Brandon was very responsive, patient and reassuring. He understood our needs and expectations as a first time homebuyer and delivered on that tenfold. We found the perfect home, made an offer the next day, closed in a month and now we’re all moved in! All this to say that I highly recommend Brandon as your real estate agent. He has the experience, knowledge and more than a realtor, he’s a great and kind person to help guide you on your homebuying journey.”
“Jasper was very professional. He has excellent market knowledge and insight that ultimately helped me make the right decision on my purchase. I’ve done a lot of real estate transactions and he I can say he is the best agent I have worked with. I highly recommend Jasper.”
“Ronen was absolutely wonderful to work with throughout our search and application process. He is knowledgeable, responsive, organized, and incredibly easy to communicate with. Whenever I had a question, he provided thoughtful answers and helpful insight rather than simply giving a quick response and moving on. He always seemed glad to help us, which matters a lot to me!! One of the things I appreciated most about Ronen was how human he made the entire process feel. Finding a new home can involve a lot of paperwork, uncertainty, and stress, but he remained encouraging and communicative throughout it all. He offered invaluable insight that I know for certain helped us get to the finish line. You can tell that he genuinely cares about connecting people with homes that will work for their lives, rather than simply completing another transaction. He took time to understand our situation, helped guide us through the application process, and made sure we knew what was needed along the way. We ultimately got the home we were incredibly excited about, and I am very thankful that Ronen helped us get there. He is professional without ever feeling impersonal, and I would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone looking for help finding their next home.”
“Cody did an outstanding job selling our house. We used him when we purchased our home and had such a great experience that there was no question we would use him again when it was time to sell. From start to finish, Cody was knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and incredibly easy to work with. He guided us through every step of the process, gave us great advice on pricing and strategy, and was always available when we had questions. He handled negotiations beautifully and made what could have been a very stressful process feel remarkably smooth. Most importantly, we always felt like Cody genuinely had our best interests in mind. We couldn’t have been happier with the outcome and would absolutely recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home.”
