As I said in my review 9 months ago, when they sold my house " I will use Sam and Tonja again" And I did! This time it was mostly Sam and he didn't disappoint on the buying end of the deal either. I really wanted to buy a house in Burbank, where I have lived for decades. Sam did not give up, even after five offers that didn't work. And on the sixth offer, it worked. We found a house in a great area, in almost perfect condition in my price range. And once again Sam went back and forth as a great negotiator, knowing when to give and take. And he is the friendliest guy on the planet! No wonder people like to work with him. I recommend him in the highest degree! It's tough buying a house, but Sam makes it as easy as possible!!!!! read more

From the moment my wife, sister, and I met Sam at a local open house, the only thing I felt from him was overwhelming support and positive energy. He was so uplifting and encouraging that literally I don't remember any of the other realtors that tried to win our business, and we had met quite a few before we met Sam. So many realtors don't want to go through the trenches with youngsters like us who may not be able to put a lot of cash down like older folks, but Sam's optimism and real estate buying skills as well as connections with mortgage lenders really helped us through all the way to the end. Also, Tonja's skills, expertise, and wisdom really helped clarify and guide us in the important decision-making moments. Sam is AMAZING with people! Remember that when buying a house people want to sell to people they like - Sam is genuinely and sincerely a a friendly person that you just want to be around. His likable spirit is contagious! The strong relationship that he formed with our seller was a key point in securing our townhome, along with his recommendations on the letter to the seller, where to price our offer, and all of the intricacies of buying a house. The big thing that I would say about Sam is that he makes the impossible seem possible. As a young couple it seemed impossible to buy a home in Los Angeles. After my wife, sister and I decided to go all in on a property together, Sam helped sealed the deal on a property that is great for our budget, living needs, and has literally EVERY box checked on our wish list - no joke! He even helped us move ALL of our stuff into our U-Haul and unload at our new house. IS THIS GUY SUPERMAN OR WHAT?! He goes above and beyond at every single opportunity and fights for his clients like there is no tomorrow all with professionalism, ease, and charm. Through it all, I feel like having Sam and Tonja on our team has been more than just having really amazing realtors on our side - I truly feel like I have gained lifelong friends that are now a part of our family! read more

Sam is the absolute best! Not only did my wife and I have a wonderful buying experience with him, but we also feel like we made a new friend. We fully plan on having him over for a beer when covid passes. This was my first home buying experience and we of course needed a little handholding going through it. Sam made it so easy! I don't know how this happened but within three days of working with Sam we were putting an offer on a place. One month later we're in it and could not be happier. Sam was always available and reliable at every step of the process. He also really genuinely cared and was happy and encouraging for us. He could not have made the whole first time home buying process any better and we can not recommend him enough! read more

Sam Masarani - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Burbank, California

Sam is the only real estate agent my wife has liked, and that is saying something. We were able to do a 21 day fha purchase (his mortgage broker is amazing). He was always happy to join us at any house, no matter where in LA. We never felt like he was working against us, or trying to talk us into something we didn't want to do. He also installed a new toilet for us, and did the water heater strapping. If you don't hire him as an agent, you should definitely hire him as a plumber. read more

As a first time home buyer, I had a lot of questions about the whole process, and Sam was there from the start to finish! He was always ready to help out whether it was showing me a potential property at an odd hour (I have a really busy schedule), finding properties with the features that I wanted, setting me up with a lender, submitting an offer, and finally closing on a home. One of the best things about Sam is that I never felt like he was trying to "sell" me anything - every decision was up to me, and he had my back 100% of the time. That alone made the entire process stress free, and it felt like I was working with a friend who just happens to be a professional in real estate! I highly recommend Sam Masarani, especially if this is your first time buying a home - you won't be disappointed! read more

I had a great experience as a first-time condo buyer with Sam. He guided me through a few uncertainties with the process and helped me find a condo with everything I was looking for all while negotiating the increased hurdles imposed by COVID. read more

Our lender introduced us to Sam and Tonja after we received our preapproval to start looking for a duplex as our first home. We had done our research, but Sam and Tonja educated us on pros and cons of each place we looked at, they helped us turn in competitive offers and we found and purchased our new home in less than six months...which in LA is some kind of miracle!! Not to mention, they are a blast to work with. We have already recommended them to every friend we know and they will be our first call when we start shopping for our next investment property! Thank you to Sam and Tonja for making home buying FUN!!!! I can't say enough...just give them a call! read more

Sam the Real Estate man is your guy for buying a home.....and for selling if you're looking to start the next chapter in your life. He helped my wife and I not only find our first home but beat out 9 other offers! Sam makes the whole experience stress free as much as possible, he's there for you for advice when it comes to making those tough decisions. Give him a call, he's great! read more

I didn't know where to start when I wanted to purchase my first home, so I am so glad that I happened to meet Sam during one of his open houses. Right away, he made me feel comfortable. I had a lot of questions and Sam helped me with the entire process. I didn't know anything about qualifying and finding out what I could afford. He wasn't pushy at all and in my price range it was hard to find anything but Sam didn't give up. Once we finally found my home Sam was there with me every step of the way and it was the greatest feeling ever when he handed me my keys. I couldn't have asked for a better realtor and highly recommend him to anyone wanting to buy a house. read more

Sam is the only real estate agent you'll ever need! When I first listed my unit on the market unfortunately my first agent wasn't very good and no true effort I feel was made into getting my home sold but when I decided to relist I knew I had to really chose my next agent wisely. From the moment I met Sam it was his overflowing kindness and incredible professionalism that made the decision to move forward with him and his team a no-brainer. His enthusiasm and energy is absolutely contagious and I truly trusted Sam in every move he made with my sale. He held open houses relentlessly and worked till the last dotted line was signed. Not to mention his wife Tonja was an added bonus who offered incredible advice and was also incredibly professional and helpful. Like others have said in previous reviews Sam's honest approach to each situation made the entire process feel like I was working with a friend and not a salesman. I truly cannot wait to work with Sam and his team on my next transaction! read more

We decided we wanted to look for a house in the area between Van Nuys and Burbank, and also a couple of neighborhoods in NE Los Angeles. We got hooked up with Sam Masarani and I'm glad we did. The guy was all over it, really hustling and working his tail off going through the listings, making calls, scanning photos and so forth. This guy doesn't take clients for granted and he works to get you, keep you, and make you feel like you're being looked out for and on the fast path to seeing a great house that you can afford (if you're lucky in this expensive LA market!). Because he's done a lot of his own hands on improvement work on his own properties, he has a good inside, get-your-hands-dirty perspective on the details and inner workings of a house and important long term things you should know (and not want to worry) about, as well as the exterior aesthetics that we can all see. All in all, the guy seems like a class act who makes you feel important in your housing search and he hits the pavement from day 1, searching through tons of properties and checking stuff that we probably never could have done ourselves. read more
