We found Anita and Hugh through Yelp and Google, and after we identified a home we wanted to purchase, we reached out. I had not worked previously with Hugh or Anita, but the first call with them made me confident that they would work hard for us and have the experience to navigate all the bumps we might run into during escrow. Anita went straight to work, negotiating with the listing agent/sellers. To put this all in perspective, we identified the home we wanted to buy on Friday afternoon. By Friday evening, Anita had coordinated with the seller to accept our offer exclusively (they had 3 other offers on the table), and Anita submitted the offer on our behalf the same evening. Less than 24 hours, we received an email acceptance of our offer and by Monday morning, we opened escrow with the contract signed by the sellers. While this was all happening from Friday-Monday, she was out of town and YET still working diligently for us. It takes an experienced agent to be able to coordinate and close escrow within 30 days. That being said, we closed escrow in 18 DAYS, and it speaks volumes to Anita's incredible work ethic. She was extremely organized, responsive, and kept everything going per or even ahead of schedule. She always gave me a heads up on things that were coming up that needed to be signed, and she reviewed each document with me thoroughly, highlighting items that would be important to note. For a purchase as big as a home purchase, this was the smoothest transaction I have ever been a part of. I'm extremely hands on with all transactions, but Anita gave me confidence that everything would be taken care of and I could leave it to her to handle. She answered all of my questions (I had many), and she would so kindly provide me with her contacts if I needed to cost compare. If you're considering buying or selling your property/home and need a strong and skilled agent, I highly recommend Anita. I have so much respect for professionals like Anita who keep hustling and raising the standard for the profession, and Anita deserves the highest praise for her hard work, determination, and negotiation skills. After this experience, she's someone I would trust with every one of our real estate transactions. Anita, I can't thank you enough for your dedication to us throughout our entire buying process. We hope to work with you again and again.

Working in sales myself, I thought I understood negotiation and relationship management well until…read moreI went through the home-buying process with Scott Price. From day one, Scott stood out because he didn't just try to sell me a house; he genuinely took the time to educate me on every step of the process. He made sure I understood what to expect, what pitfalls to avoid, and how to evaluate properties with a critical eye. His honesty and transparency were incredibly refreshing, especially in such a competitive market. Scott was never afraid to point out issues in homes that other agents might have glossed over just to close a deal. That level of integrity built a tremendous amount of trust and gave me confidence that he truly had my best interests in mind. Thanks to Scott's expertise, strategy, and network of valuable resources, I ended up finding an incredible single-family home in Culver City that checked every box. What impressed me most was his negotiation skills because he was able to secure a major price reduction and got my offer accepted literally just before another higher offer came in. Without his timing, persistence, and tactical approach, I genuinely believe I would have lost the house. On top of that, post sale Scott has stayed highly involved to make sure everything goes smoothly with my transition into home ownership. Buying a home can feel overwhelming, even for someone experienced in sales, but Scott clarified the entire process and made it feel manageable from start to finish. He's knowledgeable, connected, honest, strategic, and absolutely relentless when it comes to advocating for his clients. If you're looking for a real estate agent who will educate you, protect you, and fight to get you the best possible outcome, Scott Price is the person you want in your corner.

From the beginning, he did an excellent job clarifying the entire home-buying process and breaking things down in a way that made everything feel simple and manageable. His guidance made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward. Scott also helped me secure a great deal on the property and was a strong advocate throughout negotiations. He even negotiated a sizable credit back for repairs, which was incredibly helpful. On top of that, he connected me with reliable contractors to handle a few fixes after closing. Overall, Scott was knowledgeable, proactive, and easy to work with. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor who genuinely helps simplify the process and looks out for your best interests!

Sabine was very patient in explaining and educating us, always sharing useful insights about every house we considered. For a fixer house we were interested in, she even brought a contractor to help us figure out how much we would need to spend. Finally when we found a house we loved, Sabine helped us secure it. She told us various strategies to make our offer more appealing, and we got the house despite it having 7 offers. During escrow she handled all the inspections and other paperwork. We don't live in LA and we really appreciated her handling the entire process smoothly. Even after escrow she helped us with various things before we move into the house. Overall I would definitely recommend her to anyone. She is very easy to work with.

Beyond being a realtor, she has become a friend, and we are forever grateful and indebted to Sabine for making this a stress-free and special process to buy our first home. Sabine, thank you for the VIP treatment and for helping us find out first home. We love you!

I had been acquainted with him for a few years before I sold the units because he helped me rent them previously. Winston is an amazing man who know real estate very well. I can't thank him enough for everything he did for me. I moved all the way to Florida so I had to have everything in order and he made sure it was. He also helped me keep my head on straight since I had lived in Los Angeles most of my adult life. He helped with making sure I was emotionally ready to really do it. There was absolutely no pushing or pressure. He is a wonderful man and I recommend him as highly as I can. You will be glad you made the decision to hire him. Alice Dewey of Jupiter Farms, Florida

Jeff worked really hard for us and we knew he was really on our side, gunning for us at every step. He was unerringly responsive, patient, and available to communicate, even with our waves of anxiety and frustration, throughout the time we were looking. With his silver tongue and years of experience he played the negotiation phase just right so we landed the deal. I have already sent a bunch of friends to Jeff and will continue to do so. People had told me it would cost more to go through a broker but that has not been my experience. It's a rat race out there -do yourself a favor and let Jeff give you a leg up!

We had to move quickly and didn't have time to scout neighborhoods, or even visit the properties before making a decision. Maggie gave us detailed reports on neighborhoods in a language we could understand, ran all over the greater L.A. area to look at properties, and sent detailed videos on all our target properties. We ended up thrilled with our neighborhood and property even though my family had never set foot in the area or house. It's a true testament to her many skills. There are many people have knowledge, skills, and understanding of the market, but in addition to those requisite skills Maggie has a sincere dedication to her customers that sets her above the competition. It's very rare to find someone with all those traits in any field, and if you are in the realty market in L.A. I highly recommend connecting with Maggie.
