“As a first time buyer, I was a bit intimidated with the process. The knowledge and expertise Steven Padilla and his team exemplify, made this purchase as smooth as possible for me and my family.”
“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”
“She's gonna be even more effective and productive once she is Married. Her fiancé only bring out the best in her !!! I'm excited to see how better she becomes.”
“Our relationship with Justin started as a referral from a trusted Realtor here in Virginia whom we've used on both the sale and purchase of two houses. Our local Realtor was that rare combo of knowledgeable, hard-working, responsive and experienced and we asked her for a recommendation of someone with matching qualities to sell our son's house in Van Nuys. She suggested Justin and we couldn't be happier with the result. He was prompt in responding and diligent in guiding the process along. He is the go-to agent for knowledge of the Van Nuys residential market. That includes, most importantly, a firm understanding of what buyers are looking for, and willing to pay for, in purchasing a house. He was thus able to provide advice and guidance on the refreshing, repairing and improving that would return $1+ in sales price for every $1 spent and, critically, he had access to quality contractors able to get the work done promptly, which meant putting the house on the market when planned.”
“David was able to help and guide us through one of the most stressful times in our lives. He made the entire process smooth and as stress free as possible. He communicates clearly, and was available to answer any questions I had without pause. Thank you David!!”
“My husband and I have really enjoyed working with Joel in the process of finding a new home. He has been extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional. He was timely but not too pushy. He is very detailed-oriented, which we appreciated greatly in the unique home purchase we made. He was very clear in explaining documents, market trends, and legal topics we were less familiar with. He was also very reliable and dependable.”
“There was not a time when I wanted to communicatewith Dorene when she was not available”
“Marco checked all the boxes, was extremely helpful for us as first-time homebuyers and explained EVERYTHING to us. We never felt pressured to buy a house we didn't see fit. Marco was so patient with all the questions we had and always so quick in his responses, which is so appreciated!”
“Since we contacted Pablo, we knew he was the right person to sell our house, he was trustworthy and worked hard to meet our expectations!”
“Jannely Sandoval did an amazing job. She was knowledgeable, attentive, and professional. Would use her again in a second.”
“Toi Holliday went above and beyond what I expected. I live in a different town from the sale of my late brother's home. She oversaw the cleaning of his home, the trimming of plants and the cutting of lawn, front and back. She held a very successful open house, with three offers coming in. It sold quickly and for a good price.”
“Laura kept on top of things, kept me informed, gave me weekly activity report as to what was going on with the house and kept me informed throughout closing, very professional I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”
“Diego showed absolute professionalism throughout the entire process. It went very smoothly and all parties were happy with the end result. He was very transparent from the beginning and tempered our expectations from beginning to end. We are very pleased he was able to get above listing price for the home and ironed out all the details in a timely manner. I will definitely refer The Opulence Group to all my friends and family moving forward.”

Northeast Santa Monica offers residents a vibrant and welcoming community with picturesque parks, diverse dining options, and access to beautiful coastal views that enhance the California lifestyle.
Northeast Santa Monica balances beach-town ease with a polished, residential feel. Sitting on the eastern side of Santa Monica near the tree-lined avenues of Brentwood, it’s known for quiet blocks, character homes, and an everyday rhythm shaped by coffee stops and boutiques along Montana Avenue. Locals flock to the ponds and lawns at the city’s beloved Douglas Park, where picnics, playground time, and pickup games unfold under mature sycamores.
Families are drawn to the neighborhood’s standout schools within SMMUSD, including Franklin Elementary and Lincoln Middle School, both celebrated for strong academics and engaged communities. Daily life feels accommodating and connected: sidewalks make school drop-offs and dog walks pleasantly simple, bike lanes link to the broader Westside, and Big Blue Bus routes add car-light options for commuting and weekend plans.
On a typical Saturday, residents browse Montana Avenue’s independent shops, grab a pastry, then head home past classic Spanish Revival and mid-century architecture. Evenings might mean a quick drive to coastal overlooks, a dinner date on Wilshire, or a short hop to hiking and canyon vistas in Pacific Palisades. Proximity to the region’s job centers and cultural venues across Los Angeles County boosts convenience without sacrificing neighborhood calm.
