Oliver was fantastic and really understands the Los Angeles real estate market. Having been to many open houses, we choose Oliver because he was personable and intelligent and I felt like he really engaged well with potential buyers (so many other agents are not as friendly and I wouldn't want them selling my house). He made the whole selling process from start to finish seamless. We had a lot of balls in the air and Oliver was great at juggling our needs- both financial and family (we did not want to uproot our family without a place to go). Additionally, Oliver and his team helped set up our home for showing and a photo shoot and did a great job marketing it. Oliver was also very strategic but ensured that both my husband and I were comfortable with the strategy. Within the first 48 hours after showing, we had 12 offers. We have local aggressive real estate agents on the buy side and he stayed very professional and maintained effective working relationships with everyone. In the end, we got 14% over asking and on got more dollars per square foot basis compared to other homes the same size in our proximity. The other benefit to working with Oliver is that he responds to you directly over phone or email- whatever you choose. He is easy to reach and you do not need to go through assistants to get to him- which is not the norm. He did a great job on the sale of our home and even helped advise us on the buy side. We had already committed to another agent for the buy side of our transaction. However, the transaction was very complicated and Oliver was able to help us navigate through to maximize our benefits and minimize our risks. I would wholeheartedly recommend Oliver without reservation and would definitely use him in our next transaction.

If I can sum up Rick Tyberg in one sentence, it would be ON THE BALL. Rick is a guy who knows what he's doing and doesn't leave a single stone un-turned. In our transaction with Rick, his attention to detail saved our bacon on more than one occasion, as we were dealing with a buyer's agent who kept trying to sneak little extra things into the contract; when he called them out, they tried it again in a different way, but once again Rick was there with a fine tooth comb to make sure our interests were protected. Rick's lived in LA his entire life and knows the market, so his wealth of knowledge was incredibly helpful. Above all of that, he makes the process fun and enjoyable along the way, while also ensuring you get the best possible deal. I'd recommend Rick in a heartbeat.

Jacqueline Jones sold our Los Angeles home (which includes no covered parking) in one week for 150K over listing, with multiple offers and a great backup offer lined up. And if that weren't enough, she was incredibly communicative, transparent, kind, and responsive. Working with her was truly like having a guardian angel. She went above and beyond to make sure every step went as smoothly as possible for my husband and I, who were out of town throughout the entire process and relied on her for absolutely everything. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Patience and good humor. When we didn't know exactly what we were looking for. Discernment. Steven figured out what we were looking for before we did. Success. When we all understood and he found it.

As first-time homebuyers, we came into the process with a lot of questions. Rachel was an absolute legend to work with. She went above and beyond to help us find our dream home: recommending properties, scheduling tours, answering our questions and negotiating on our behalf. She was there for us and advocated for us 24/7. In less than 2 months from viewing our first house, we’re ready to move in. I can’t recommend Rachel highly enough!

Tressana is a gem. She is a rare combination of a gifted and knowledgeable real estate professional, a compulsive hard-worker, and a naturally friendly and attractive personality, who also works with her colleagues and her clients with only the very highest integrity. She has represented me and my family while searching for three separate property purchases. I have relied on her over and over again in the last 5 years to help with all of these property searches, and would not hesitate to use her for our next search. She is extremely trustworthy and a joy to work with. I have a tremendous amount of confidence in her and her abilities to help me in the real estate market. I can easily recommend her to all very highly and without any reservations.

- Jason

James was great! This was my first home purchase and I was very new to the process. He made me feel I was the number one priority at all times. He made all the effort to get us in to see new listings quickly and even found a couple that were not on the market. His communication and industry knowledge were incredibly impressive and made the entire process so easy! Big thank you to James and his support team!

Compliments for Ernie Carswell

Highly likely to recommend

- Jeff G.

Ernie Carswell was great to work with! He expertly advised us and negotiated a great deal for our challenging home. We always felt he had our best interests at heart and never pushed just to get the sale. He offered several very creative solutions to keep the sale going and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Ernie and Michele Moses sold our challenging home quickly and for a very good “as is” price (close to $4 mill), considering its location (next to a commercial parking lot, sewer and root problems etc), and the fact we had already moved to a different state. Never a negative comment, wonderful attitude, incredibly caring... We’ve bought and sold a lot of homes through various brokers over the years. Ernie is by far, the best!

Michele is the best! She really helped me and my roommates understand the lease process and was also fun to work with. She was very patient and really connected to what we were looking for. She found us a great lease and at the price we wanted. Michele was also looking out for us the whole way and got the landlord to make some much needed repairs and updates to the unit which was beyond our expectations. I know I will absolutely use her for all my real estate needs in the future and highly recommend her.

Lori is the consummate professional — she took the time to educate me about the various options available, the property pros/cons, and was able to find me a beautiful home. She is thorough and a champion for her clients, I have referred many people to her and would never think of using anyone else for my real estate needs.

To be a homeowner (as a single woman-of-color-immigrant-lady boss-first-time-home-buyer) has always been a vaguely ludicrous, perhaps even completely unattainable dream. But, in 2017, Chris Picket helped turn that dream is reality. I had been searching and putting in offers in the LA area for 1.5 years before I met Chris. I would also making it to the top tier of the offers, but was inevitably muscled out by cash buyers. I felt I had no business calling Chris has he handles multi-million dollar properties and A-listers within the Hollywood community. Nevertheless, I called up Chris out of the blue and explained my situation. He said first-time homeowners were his favorite and that he wanted to help me find the right home. Chris is the type of business partner who listing agents really enjoy working with - he doesn't nag, he doesn't try to manipulate you and he's fair. He's calm, organized and doesn't lose his cool. So he's great to work with no matter which side of the table you're sitting on. Fundamentally, he helped me structure a winning deal that the buyer couldn't say no to and he's known as a closer. He and his staff were prompt and attentive to all my questions - which really helped move things along. Chris also happens to be exceptionally talented and a kind Real Estate Agent, who provided a quality experience and a good humored one. I wasn't traumatized, rather when I closed, I felt empowered.
