As much as a I embraced DTLA living for a bit, things were going down hill fast, and stepping out…read moreof my apartment complex was becoming about as safe as being a Cinematographer on the set of an Alec Baldwin movie. So it was time to make a move, run for The Hills, and become a first time homeowner. I had a few things in mind I was looking for and needed someone to help me reach for the stars and join the "Hollywood Elite." Or you might say, someone that'd be "Selling Sunset" to me. Cue the music and enter realtor Becca Liang! This is the part of the movie where they play a montage consisting of all the pivotal moments in my home buying process climaxing with the ultimate triumphs of getting the offer accepted and closing escrow. *Home Search: Becca took the time to determine the specific features I desired (high ceilings and a roofdeck, for example) and just as importantly, what I wasn't looking for *Showings: Once we identified a few properties that checked the boxes and seemed up to my standards, she scheduled all the appointments to maximize the best use of my time *Offer: when I was ready to pull the trigger, we collaborated on the best approach to make an offer that'd be accepted, without risking the seller countering or another buyer swooping in (spoiler alert: it worked) *Paperwork: when you don't have a printer at home and there's 80 million things required to sign as part of any real estate transaction, no worries, Becca geared everthing up for me to easily do online via DocuSign. She was also extremely responsive when I had a question, or 2, or 3 about some of the items Normally I prefer to handle a lot of things on my own, but I needed a dedicated professional that I could rely on and trust for this huge transaction. With her performance and results, I'd have to nominate Becca for an Oscar (if they had Award shows for real estate agents). Since they apparently don't do those (yet), hopefully my 5 star review and strong recommendation is an acceptable substitute.

With lots of experience in the LA market, if you're looking for a new home, definitely consider giving Becca a look.

Shannon Casey hit it out of the ballpark for us and I must share our experience!…read more We were fortunate to work with Shannon as she sought out a property for us. With her knowledge of the marketplace and property values, she was able to find a spectacular and highly sought-after property. She worked hard to make this happen in today's competitive environment. When the time for offers came in, she strategically ensured we were selected amongst numerous other bidders. She was always there for us too. Once in escrow, she assisted in selecting amongst best lenders, gave us timely management of meeting timelines, and was always a phone call away when we needed her or had questions. Finding the best property and taking the process to completion is critical and to be taken seriously. Having a professional like Shannon made it appear seamless and a wonderful experience. Thank you Shannon! We are forever grateful for the professional guidance you gave us. Looking forward to working with you again in the future! JP

Shannon's expertise and discretion is first. She led me away from risk and toward long-term term security. Her professional assessment is very keen and crucial to any client.

Her representation and communication was exceptional. I am forever grateful to Shannon for the outstanding performance in her dual role as both my sales and purchase agent. Thanks to Shannon, I am now living in my dream home in Pasadena. Elizabeth P.

After Rachel successfully helped us find our beautiful home in the South Bay, there was no doubt…read moreRachel and Orri were the right people for the job when we needed to sell. We had relocate out-of-state for work and had to sell our home in Redondo Beach. I'm only writing this review after we were forced to deal with other agents in our new location. It really makes me appreciate Rachel even more.She is not only honest, hardworking, and personable but she is knowledgeable, an amazing negotiator and confidant. The entire sale side can be overwhelming and stressful but Rachel's demeanor always made my husband and I comfortable and at ease. When it came to questions she was always available to us via phone, text, email or in person and respond in a timely fashion. Even with our busy work schedules, she handled the sale side seamlessly. From her help with staging to the amazing marketing plan she developed, which included a very high quality flyer that really did a great job highlighting our home. I even saved the flyer as a template of what to do in the future. All this really helped us sell our house in record time. Once we received multiple offers after the first day of being on the market. Rachel did an amazing job of researching the potential buyers and delivered the organized presentation to us with all the pros and cons. She assisted us in making a smart, fair and expeditious decision and we closed escrow within 30 days and sold our home to a very nice family over asking. Everything Rachel does is of the highest quality and consistent. We only wish we had agents like her here in Miami, Florida. Seriously, you can't go wrong with Rachel Ezra, she is of the greatest caliber of agents and just a good person overall. We are very grateful to have worked with Rachel Ezra.

Ileana and her business partner Kevin Driscoll met with me at my mothers townhouse and we strategized a plan. She is the face of a competent realtor and Kevin is that and very knowledgeable in real estate law and all the small details that would ultimately define the essence of the deal. The approach of a brokers open house led us to 3 offers in one week. The best & final was more than expected and accepted. Ileana & Kevin kept one step ahead to anticipate any pitfalls, of which there were none. I couldn't be happier as this is my parent's legacy. They make an awesome team.

Ileana is so good at explaining the process and is willing to take the extra time to help you understand today's market. Prior to finding and buying our dream home, we found other ones that we wanted to write offers on but Ileana gently expressed her concerns about those homes and educated us about resale values. She assured us that she would find the perfect home for us and she did! Ileana was great at building rapport with all of the listing agents. Her relationship and communication with the listing agent of the home that we bought was amazing. Ileana negotiated very aggressively but always maintained a professional and friendly rapport with the listing agent. Which made the entire escrow process smooth and quick - any hiccups that came up she handled with expertise. I cannot recommend Ileana enough. We will miss our after house hunting meetings and the laughs we had throughout - but look forward to working with her on all of our future real estate needs. She is the best!
