I feel so lucky to have found Lesli! Not only is she incredibly professional, but she's also a genuinely wonderful human. I was a first time homebuyer, and I always assumed buying a home was hard and stressful. While buying with Lesli, I actually felt so at east and honestly like I wasn't doing enough. When I say she took care of everything, I mean Lesli literally took care of everything. If I had a question about anything (ranging from where our seller bought the cabinets in the kitchen or how long I had on my mortgage quote's rate lock), she'd actually just text the relevant person and have the answer for me as soon as she got a response. Lesli made buying my first house incredibly easy. It really felt like I had someone in my corner. If a house wasn't a good match, we'd have a conversation about her thoughts, my wants, and she'd walk me through all the pros and cons. She was, without a doubt, helping me shop to find the right home for me. She gives you her undivided attention and her (very valuable) thoughts. I am in awe by how knowledgeable she is regarding the Los Angeles area, the homebuying process, and general information buyers may need. She made sure I understood every step of the process before we proceeded. She absolutely explained a few things to me multiple times and was always patient and kind about it. Lesli was always available to answer questions, tour houses, listen to me vent about our (very difficult) seller, and she always did it with respect and grace. She is truly a superhero. When you buy a house with Lesli, it feels like you're just hanging with your bestie. She is also very funny, super kind, and easy to be around which makes long days of house hunting fun! I could not recommend her more, and I hope every house I buy in the future is with her. I could honestly go on for ages about how spectacular Lesli is. If you're looking for an agent, you can stop your search, you found the best one there is! read more

A few months ago, we were so desperate in looking for a dream house in the Torrance hot seller market. We made 8 offers, kept our hope high until each offer review day and learned that we lost the bidding war. It was so stressful and our hearts broke so many times... Finally we met Lesli. The more we worked with her, the more we got convinced by her professionalism and her determination to help us to achieve our goal. Even when our offer on the house we love got rejected and we moved on to less desirable deals, she did not lose hope and still followed up with the seller. Miraculously, the 1st choice buyer for that house backed up and our offer got accepted. Lesli never pushes us to buy but she gave us a very clear picture of the situation, thoughtfully analyzed the deal and let us decide. Finally we bought the house with Lesli and it is one of the best decisions we made so far. She makes sure the closing process goes smoothly, answers all our questions timely and clearly. Lesli follows up with her heart warming emails and presents after we moved in. She becomes a trusted friend of my family, always there for all our real estate needs. Lesli and her team not only earned our best 5 stars rating but also our hearts. I highly recommend Lesli as one of the best real estate agents you can possibly find. read more

Client review I had the pleasure of one of my closest friends, Lesli, to work with us on selling our home. While the circumstances were not easy, Lesli navigated the sale for us. Lesli was very well versed in Mid Century Modern style homes. She brought fresh ideas to enhance our look to prepare for the open house, staged it immaculately, and provided expertise and special skills every step of the way. Lesli excels as a Real Estate leader consistently being creative, holding to the highest standards, and producing quality results. She remained focused to get the best price for us for the sale of our home. Lesli closely monitored Market trends. She planned for and maximized communicating with us every step towards finding buyers. Her expertise proved invaluable in a volatile market with interest rates rising monthly. While I am extremely sad the house had to be sold, I believe Lesli found buyers that will take care of and love our home as much as we did. If you are looking for a conscientious, diligent, and quality expert Real Estate agent with the highest Real Estate integrity and principles, contact Lesli. She is a dedicated and committed Real Estate professional, with the utmost integrity, and she brings local experience, as she also lives in the South Bay. Josie Catella, Client read more

Where do I start? Lesli has been my rock. She is extremely professional, caring, and kind. She works hard at doing her best to sell your precious home.
