They were completely committed to helping us get the most for our home, achieving more than we ever thought was possible. Having sold multiple homes in the South Bay, we can say without a doubt that we've never had an experience as seamless and supportive as this. They handled every aspect of selling our home in Manhattan Beach and went far beyond expectations; connecting us with incredible contractors, helping with landscaping and staging (they have unbelievable taste!), and checking on the house after we had already moved across the country. They are brilliant, have magnetic personalities, and above all, are truly kind and compassionate people. You are in the absolute best hands with them. We will always be so grateful to Piper and Karen for making our MB sale and cross-country move possible!

When my husband and I decided to move from Irvine, California to Montana we knew that we needed…read moresomeone who we trusted completely with in the process of selling our home. We packed all of our stuff and moved to Montana, leaving absolutely everything in the hands of Karen & Piper. They closed our home after the movers finished (we were already in the airport on our way to Montana). They made sure to stage the home to make it look like a million dollars. They have impeccable taste. They got us a huge amount of offers just after two days of our house being listed with all of the offers way above the listing price. It was amazing how they marketed and showed our house. I never thought we could get that much for our property. We honestly just followed all their suggestions because we know how efficient and smart they are. They are not only trustworthy but the most professional real estate agents you are going to find. I wish I could keep working with them in the future, but we aren't planning on buying or selling any more property in Southern California. They genuinely care about performing the absolute best work that they can provide. They are passionate about business and people.

I am a home seller in Laguna Beach. I tried using a smaller real estate office at first to sell my…read morehome. Needless to say, they were unsuccessful. So I began looking at which realtors in the area were the biggest marketers. After all, that's what I wanted- someone who would promote the heck out of my house. In comes John Stanaland and my entire experience as a home seller turned from disappointed to enthusiastic. First, John answered my call personally. He then made an appointment with me to meet at and inspect my home. He was on time for the meeting and that means a lot to me. John is a smart guy and he really knows the local real estate scene. I gathered this about him in our first meeting. Therefore, I have him the listing. Almost immediately John and his dedicated team, including Arianna and Trevor (Stanakid), got to work. They began holding open houses nearly every single week. Every time, they would walk the home and help to come rely prepare it for showings. I also liked that they would bring several people to the open house to watch my things while strangers roamed the place. That have me a sense of security. Most importantly, John and his team took the time to understand the less obvious and particular selling points of my home. They then prepared and distributed wonderful literature complete with great professional photos to prospective buyers. Arianna was the main agent assigned to my home sale. She is a true professional and certainly conducts herself in a manner appropriate for selling high end beach real estate. I felt Arianna was able to quickly understand the intentions of prospective buyers and then acted on the ones she felt should be acted upon. John's personal marketing that he spends so much money on week after week is what eventually brought the buyer to my home. As difficulties arose, John and Arianna were there to meet them head on. Today, my home sale closes and the ppf I am receiving makes me very happy. I offer John and the Stanaland my highest unqualified recommendation. I would not hesitate to use their services again or to recommend them to my friends and family. TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THAT YOU CANNOT GO WRONG USING THE STANALAND GROUP!!! I saw another posting from what appears to be an angry person. After this very positive experience with John and his team, I find it very hard to believe the negative posting was actually left by a client who utilized his services. I would place my bet that the negative posting was left by a competitor or someone else with a misguided axe to grind.

It was very unprofessional for a person selling million dollar homes to not even answer the phone or have an assistant answer the phone. I also want to know how he got my email address. I read a review where someone was happy he sold his house in 4 days. Either a fake review or a uninformed person. A house selling in 4 days is UNDER PRICED. Home owner probably had no clue on what the market was in his area.

From the start by giving me the tools to start the house search to closing, she broke the intimidating process into clear parts and walked me through everything. She is super communicative and is always a simple text/email/call away to answer whatever question or concern I may have about anything. I can't understate how valuable her wisdom and insight are to someone inexperienced / new to this whole process. She made sure I understand what was happening at every step of the way so I can be as informed as possible to not leave me anxious and wondering, "what's happening?". She helped guide me through every step, through every document, and then some. At no point in the home buying process did I ever lost and confused, all thanks to her. I absolutely recommend Missy as a real estate agent to anyone in the Orange County area, her expertise is truly unmatched.

My home search took nearly two years, and throughout that entire time she was consistently attentive, responsive, and proactive. She never made me feel like just another client--I always felt valued and supported, even during a long and sometimes challenging search. When we finally found the right home, her expertise really stood out. She guided me through every step of the process and helped close in just 23 days (effectively 21, with a slight delay due to the weekend), which was impressive given I wasn't under any time pressure. She also has a great network of trusted professionals and provided recommendations when needed, without ever being pushy. That level of trust made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. If you're looking for an agent who is knowledgeable, patient, and truly committed to her clients, I highly recommend Missy.

He guided us through the entire buying process and made what could have been a stressful experience feel much more manageable. What really stood out was how hyper-local his knowledge is. In some cities that might not matter as much, but in Laguna Beach it truly makes a world of difference. Every street, neighborhood, and nuance matters here, and having a local realtor who truly understands the area is invaluable.

I explained that I had a distressed property that I needed to sell in Mission Viejo above the lake.

Within days we had multiple cash offers and hit the "magic" number I needed for the sales price. The process was quick and Kathe made it so easy.
