I cannot be happier with the outcome of the sale of the building. The Pardee internal staff members, both on the Sellers and the Buyers side, are wonderful! Great professional approach and conduct throughout the process, always supportive and communicative, very accommodating for my specific needs pertaining to the sale, and in providing their many suggestions for third party support as was needed. When I first seriously started thinking about selling my building after 40 year absentee ownership, I knew it was not going to be a short and sweet path for various complicated reasons. I also knew that I would need to find a firm that I could work with, without the high pressure approach of many "others" in the Venice Beach/Westside area. I was looking for both excellence and patience in the firm I would select. In early Sept 2014, I spent a full day walking all the streets within about a half-mile of my apartment building to see what was going on in the neighborhoods, and to see what firms and agents had the listings, more importantly who had SOLD signs on their listings. Pardee Properties was the leader by miles for the comparable properties around the area. This scouting around pretty much determined that I needed to talk directly with Tami soon to get things started, but I would still call a couple of others to just to see what they had to say. Being a planner type, and not too impressed with lots of flashy talk or embellishments, my first phone call to Tami was rewarding with the straight forward discussion and the very reasonableness of her logic, as well as a low-keyed invitation to meet in the office one day if I liked. All of the "others" were full of flash, dreams, and they were after so many immediate commitments from me which seemed they were almost in desperation. This was pretty funny and not worthy of any follow-up with the "others" for sure. The first day I met with Tami and Kerry Ann the following week in their Venice office, it confirmed this was the right choice for me. Right out of the gate Tami focused in on the issues, the ultimate sale pricing ranges for the different building/tenant status and the possibilities for working on optimizing the outcome. She understood my desire to keep this within Pardee and off the MLS if possible, and certainly the pivotal thing was setting me up with legal counsel that same day for an initial discussion of legal paths to some of the outstanding issues that tied into Tami's overall assessment of the property. Kerry Ann gave the assurances for any support or back-up that I would desire, with no pressure on timing or actions, a very positive feeling from her as my primary contact, with her only asking for periodic updates on the progress. The plan took a few parallel paths after the discussions with legal counsel and Tami on timing considerations/etc. Interestingly, this deal ultimately concluded exactly to the month, and right on the top target sale price estimate, that Tami projected in our first meeting 18 months prior. They really know their business! The noteworthy point of all this is that neither Tami or Kerry Ann ever put on any pressure to get the building listed prematurely or anything like that, just the handshake understanding between us to advance this until I was ready to list the building. Both of them were very interested and supportive through the whole 18 months it took to get this along the path to where we concluded a few weeks ago. The last 4 or 5 weeks were unbelievable; I met with both Tami and Kerry at the building for a marketing/sales plan and I reviewed their refurbishment recommendations on the work to undertake in the vacant Units with the probable pricing range expectations, I started cleaning up the Units and planning for the painting/carpets/ hard surface/etc., Kerry Ann collected firm price contractor bids for the work for me, and then Kerry Ann made the Pardee internal presentation of the building offering to the Pardee agents. A few days after the internal Pardee presentation, and all within a two week duration, came an initial offer, then the firm full price offer the next day, our mutual acceptance of terms, the Buyer completed inspections/reviews, escrow opened, escrow closed, cash in the bank, ...................WOW, .................. what happened,................... I LOVE IT!!!!!! Tami and Kerry Ann are the best. This can certainly be seen from the sequence of events and their meeting all of my "special" desires regarding the sale as initially set out 18 months ago with Tami and Kerry Ann. Again, I want to thank both Tami and Kerry Ann, and Rachael on the Buyers side (as well as the whole Pardee team) for this wonderful conclusion to a "retrospectively-fun" (or maybe just interesting) process. I learned a lot from Tami and Kerry Ann which is always a plus for me, as well as having the pleasure of dealing with these two professionals. read more

I've never thought that I would write a Yelp review of a real estate firm, but the outstanding experiences I've had with Pardee over the past twelve months have compelled me to write one. A year ago, I started the process of moving to the West Coast from New York. I was introduced to Tami Pardee by a mutual friend, and she decided to have me work with her associate Katie. Katie was wonderful - she took me and my wife to see dozens of properties over several months, and she did it with unlimited enthusiasm, energy, and positivity. Katie answered all of our constant questions, and was so generous with her time that we almost felt guilty taking so much of it! My wife and I couldn't have felt better taken care of. Relocating is a scary process, but Katie made it fun. After several months of looking at properties to buy, my wife and I realized that we were getting farther away from knowing what we wanted to do, so we decided that the best call for us was to rent for a year to figure everything out. We were passed on to Kate, who handles rentals at Pardee. Once again, my wife and I felt so well taken care of. Kate was incredibly professional, but was also warm and positive and so easy to work with. After an intense week of looking at rentals, we found one that we were excited about. Kate took so much of her time to help us through the complicated application process, and when the deal was completed, I couldn't have been happier. When we moved to our new home, Kate was genuinely excited for us. Even though her job was done, she has continued to check in on us to make sure we are happy and settling in to our new West Coast lives. At this point, we've gotten to know so many of the people who work at Pardee. The place feels more like a family than a real estate firm. The Pardee culture is based on professionalism, positivity, and incredible service to the people they work with. As you can probably tell, I recommend them wholeheartedly. A buyer or a renter couldn't possibly be better served. read more

If you're thinking about selling your home, call Paige Ogden--seriously. The decision to sell was a stressful one--we weren't sure if it was the right time with winter approaching and on an election year. We interviewed a lot of realtors, and from the very start, Paige stood out. She immediately understood our property, how to market it, and what it would take to get top dollar in a tricky market. She knows the area intimately, she has an incredible eye for detail, and--bonus--she's just the coolest. Paige and her team came in with confidence, clarity, and a rock-solid plan. They helped us navigate every step of the process and executed everything on an incredibly quick turnaround. And they didn't just bring a strategy--they brought the best team of contractors and suppliers to help us prep our home for the market, making the process as seamless as possible. Selling a home is such an emotional process, but Paige and her team at Pardee made it smooth and stress-free. Every single person on her team is a joy to work with--professional, kind, and deeply invested in the process. Paige attracts good people because of the energy she puts out into the universe. She approaches real estate from a place of abundance, and that energy is contagious. But the thing that's hardest to quantify--and what truly sets Paige apart--is that she gets it. She's like a real estate savant. She has this almost uncanny instinct for positioning a property, knowing how to talk about it, and shaping its story in a way that resonates with buyers. She doesn't just list homes--she tells their story, and that makes all the difference. We felt supported, informed, and confident every step of the way. We were a hot home in a tricky market and ended up with a fantastic result. If you want a realtor who will make you feel confident, supported, and actually excited about selling your home, Paige is the one. We are beyond grateful. Thank you, Paige!! read more

Just writing this review even though we sold our house three months ago. We live in the Mar Vista area and we had met Tammi Pardee years ago when she was on her own. Kerry Ann Sullivan was our saleswoman- what a pro! Their entire operation was flawless. The sale took about two months to close. We had a tenant in our house while we were selling it so it was a bit tricky navigating all the interactions needed to show, inspect, and close the sale. Kerry Ann did it all. She contacted and dealt with the tenant. Arranged minor repair work for no charge ( they have a handyman). We used their Escrow company also. I cannot say how easy this entire process was. We almost did nothing but approved offers, bumped the price up, and clicked on electronic approvals of all the myriad signatures needed to sell a house. One day before closing the buyer wanted us to remove a long heavy bench in the back yard not attached to the house. I thought " OH No! Me and wife gonna do this?" Kerry Ann said " we have a crew that will take care of it, no worries". ( whew!) My wife and I have sold and or bought, and rented, many properties and honestly Halton Pardee was the best experience of our lives. They are honest, thorough, and compassionate. On day two of our signing the sales agreement they brought in a professional photographer to shoot the house and the video was up two days later. When I look at how some agents just use their cell phones to photo shoot the house it makes me cry. If Kerry Ann was busy, Eric was there to handle our calls and our needs. If you want great service, kind people, well connected professionals who have experience that counts- then I strongly suggest using Halton Pardee. Alan S read more

From day one, Samira delivered an unmatched level of honesty, commitment, and attention to detail that completely blew me away. Like most people, finding our dream home was a no small feat, especially since I'm so particular about every detail: design, layout, finishes, amenities, location, and of course property value/cost. Samira was there to research, hunt, show, advise, guide, and negotiate for us every step of the way. We were in constant communication about showings, pros and cons of each house, what lenders to use, etc - literally every detail under the sun. Not only is Samira refreshingly honest and firmly reliable, but she is also extremely knowledgeable and knows how to spot the right opportunities for her clients. Her candor and proactive nature made ALL the difference. She stays on top of every detail, is an absolute delight to work with, and is without a doubt the best realtor I've ever worked with. In fact, I can't wait to buy another house just to work with her again (really hope my husband doesn't find this review). I've already recommended her to several friends and family - one of my friends had put in 7 offers without getting an acceptance, and I urged her to switch to Samira. Within a week, they were able to enter escrow on their dream home, all while competing against 20 other offers. We were stunned! Samira is truly a seasoned professional, and it shows in every way that matters. read more

I give my strongest recommendation to Tami Pardee and her team at Pardee Realty. They are highly professional, efficient, and collaborative--and they exceeded our expectations at every stage. Their negotiation skills were outstanding, ultimately securing top dollar for our home. We were managing the sale of an inherited property located more than 500 miles away, and the home required significant preparation. The Pardee Realty team moved quickly and decisively, coordinating every detail to position the property for maximum value. They brought in a trusted network of skilled professionals--including painters, plumbers, handymen, landscapers, and staging experts--and managed the entire process seamlessly. Thanks to their expertise and execution, the home was sold in less than two months. What truly distinguishes this team is their strategic approach and deep knowledge of the market. They are exceptional communicators--proactive, transparent, and highly organized--keeping us fully informed while making it easy for us to participate in key decisions from a distance. Their attention to detail was evident throughout every phase of the transaction, and their coordination with the escrow company helped streamline and expedite the closing process. Simply put, Tami Pardee and her team deliver results. We recommend Pardee Realty without hesitation--and only wish we had more homes for them to sell. read more

When we decided to put our house up for sale, we met with all the big realtors in Los Angeles. They made their pitch, we listened, and we came up with the same reaction to all of them. They don't really care about us or our house. When Nancy Osborne and Brian Chung of Halton Pardee came over to our home. We talked and they listened. They asked us about our expectations and how we wanted to proceed. A few days later, they sent us an email with a schedule, ideas on how to go about doing things, and a time frame for it all. It was clear to our family, that they were looking out for us. A week later, they took over, a team of carpenters, painters, handymen would quickly and efficiently return our home to its initial glory. Daily, we were made aware of the progress and the next step in securing a sale. After a few weeks on the market, a succession of well organized open houses, we received an offer, Nancy walked us through, step by step, talked about all the different scenarios that could happen. But, always positive in her belief, that the right buyer would come along and we would close. We did. And it happened as they said it would. Nancy and the Halton Pardee were fantastic from beginning to end, I highly recommend them. Why? Because, They care about you. And that's a lot . Kassie Evashevski Charle Landry read more

I had the pleasure of working with Samantha, Eric, and Greg in Team Pardee to sell a condo in MDR, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The entire process was smooth and efficient, resulting in a fantastic outcome. Here are some key highlights: - They provided comprehensive onboarding materials that guided me through the entire selling process. - Samantha and Eric developed a thoughtful marketing strategy that ultimately led to selling the property above asking price. - Samantha's persistent engagement with potential buyers created a competitive multiple offers situation. - Greg meticulously managed all logistics and kept me well-informed throughout the process. - The team was consistently responsive and attentive to my questions. - They also connected me with reliable third-party services for escrow, staging, and cleaning/repairs. I am thoroughly pleased with both the process and the outcome of working with this team. I wholeheartedly recommend Samantha, Eric, and Greg to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area. read more

Haley Delagnes is absolutely amazing and truly the best real estate agent my wife and I could have hoped for. As first-time buyers navigating the competitive Los Angeles market we were quite nervous, but Haley made the entire process feel manageable and even enjoyable. She was incredibly responsive, always on top of every detail, and brought a thoughtful, friendly energy to every interaction. Haley went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and informed every step of the way. She never pressured us, was patient through all our questions, and worked tirelessly to ensure we landed the perfect condo with the best possible deal. Her deep knowledge of the area and experience were invaluable. Even after the sale, she continued to be a helpful and reliable guide. We're grateful to have worked with Haley and can't recommend her highly enough! We also had a great experience working with Pardee Properties overall. The whole team was professional, organized, and genuinely supportive throughout the process. read more

My husband and I were considering selling our home. We asked Tami to provide us an assessment of our home's value. Several months later we contacted Tami, as we had decided to list the house with Pardee. We worked closely with Justin during the process. I can not say enough positive things about Justin, Tami and the Pardee team. First, the assessment Tami did of our home's value was spot on! Second, the Pardee Team was always available, responsive and service-focused. Third, they brought in all the right people to make this a successful and simple transaction for us (a staging team, painters, handyman, movers, etc...). Tami understands Venice, and she has a great feel for the neighborhood, properties and buyers. She said that we had a home that a buyer would fall in love with, and that is exactly who bought the property. While it took a little longer than we had hoped to find the right buyer, Tami and her team kept up their focus, energies and momentum to find the perfect buyer for our property! read more

We received the service we were promised and more. Paige and the whole team was effective, efficient as well as on time for all the milestones set in our discussions. They managed the whole affair even though we were away. They brought us good offers and gave us good advice but carried on diligently and earnestly our wishes. Service after closing has been equally good. I will hire them again and will recommend to anyone. I have read some other reviews too. Keep in mind that to get good service, a client also needs to cooperate and have appreciation of their own needs and the needs of the employees to have time off and recharge. Half depends on a customer / client to secure and receive good service. Be good client to get good service. Unnecessary negativity does not get anyone anywhere. Our experience with Pardee properties has been no less than excellent and will have no hesitation recommending Pardee Properties to anyone willing to cooperate and get good service. read more

Going in, I was thinking the world of this company; up and coming -- seemed like every great sale was coming from them every other week. So disappointed. I really felt like I was dealing with an agent from CAA. They tell you what you want to hear. Spin things to the point to where you don't trust them. And honestly they couldn't have given us worse advice. I have never written a yelp review in my life, but felt compelled to do so now. I'm sure all their agents aren't shallow hustlers, but the one we got stuck with was. But I lay the brunt of the blame on Tammy Pardee, the owner. I actually know her and have a close mutal friend to her and her husband. She met with us once in the beginning. Then has never reached out since -- almost a year! Seems like a company that has expanded too much too soon. I'm pretty sure things will catch up to them. I have a Mulit-million dollar home in the Santa Monica Venice area. And I can't wait to dump them asap. read more

I have been on the buying, selling and leasing side with Halton, Pardee + Partners dating from when the agency was Pardee sans Halton or partners. My latest experience was as a Seller with Nancy Osborne and Brian Chung. It is a privilege to work with this team and this agency. I have had only positive experiences and, honestly, it gets better each time. I had horrific, unsavory experiences with other agents and agencies previously. Halton, Pardee + Partners, Nancy and Brian, and the amazing Rachael Peterson, are extraordinary, high level professionals- perceptive, whip-smart, broadly networked individuals. They are in a tier unto themselves. If you have an opportunity to work with Halton, Pardee + Partners, all I can say is, do. You'll have a concierge experience. I have no affiliation with Halton, Pardee + Partners. read more

Rachael Petersen and the staff at Pardee Properties were amazing. Rachael proved very knowledgeable about the West LA, Santa Monica, Venice, and Marina del Rey markets. As first time home buyers we had many, many questions and she impressed us with her ability to field all of them with clear answers in plain English and solid explanation of her reasoning. No hand-wavy vague answers. She is very knowledgeable about the various property types and impressed us early on with solid insight into the workings of condo developments and very detail-oriented. In once instance, she fixed several errors in a haphazardly written purchase agreement - which a development company insisted on using. I strongly recommend Rachael for anyone looking for a new home on the west side, and particularly anyone new to the process. read more

Nancy and her team are total pros. Before we met with them, other agents recommended elaborate staging and a makeover of our outdoor space to prepare for sale. It would have been thousands out of pocket. Instead, at Tami and Nancy's suggestion, we went with simple staging and sold for above what other agents were projecting. Halton Pardee even provided a handyman, free of charge, to help with the staging and to address minor repairs. During the process, Nancy and John's responsiveness, honesty and levity kept our stress at bay. She and John checked in regularly to update us on what to expect in the days and weeks to come. They were always quick to respond to our many questions and concerns. Thank you Nancy, John and Halton Pardee for making it seem easy, and for getting us a great price for our place! read more

We had a great experience with the sale of our condo with Halton Pardee but chose to work with another agent since we were moving away from the Westside. After a horrible experience with an agent who specialized in mid-city properties, we went back to Pardee for help and were introduced to Liz Bourneuf. Liz helped us find a dream home after a long search with a lot of ups and downs. She was always available and patiently walked us through the process and helped negotiate repairs that allowed us to purchase a home in our price range. She also worked tirelessly to help with a squatter situation so we could move in on time. We're so thankful for all her help and whole-heartedly recommend Pardee for both buying and selling. They're the best! read more

We recently sold our house with Pardee Properties, and our experience was nothing short of outstanding. Pardee Properties made the process really easy and efficient. From day one, I was highly impressed with Tami, Paige, and Samantha. They put together a well-coordinated strategy and executed it perfectly. Thanks to their expertise, we received multiple offers and ultimately sold the house for over asking. We listened to them and are so happy we did! They also helped us every step of the way, from arranging cleaning, repairs, and staging - they were really hands-on, which I appreciated. I highly recommend The Pardee team and their recommended escrow company, Beachwood Escrow. Everyone was fantastic, and I couldn't have done it without them! read more

My husband and I worked with Lauren Narozniak to purchase our first home, and we HIGHLY recommend her! As first-time home buyers, we had many questions and were nervous about the overall process. Lauren answered our questions quickly and always ensured we felt comfortable and well-informed. She is incredibly knowledgeable about LA real estate and helped us develop a competitive offer. We always felt comfortable reaching out and knew she would be there when we needed help. Lauren and her team (shout out Haley and Sarah) made this process much less stressful, and I genuinely don't know what we would have done without them! If you are looking for a friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and dependable real estate professional, work with Lauren! read more
