Compliments for Steven Roffer

Highly likely to recommend

01/26/2019 - garrettbtodd85

Steven did an excellent job negotiating my home purchase in West Los Angeles, given the extremely competitive market and difficulty EVEN finding a home in this market, he was able to meet my requests and criteria, locate and property, and close all in under 30 days. This is a nearly impossible feat in this market. I will definitely be recommending him to others and using him again.

Compliments for Tressana Alouane

Highly likely to recommend

- Peter C., General Surgeon at USC

Tressana was extremely helpful at all stages of the selling process. She totally organized the preparation of the house for sale, which turned out to be a complicated process because of the accumulation of 20 years of clutter, and transformed it into a bright and attractive property. She has a great range of important contacts when it came to the contractors we required for repairs - electricians, painters, stagers, and tradesmen of all kinds - and she was always on top of them to make sure the work was done in a timely way, and was done properly and thoroughly. She was not just trying to make the place just superficially more attractive, but respectful of the needs of the buyer too. The marketing process, including the photography and all aspects of the listing, were perfect. She knows all the relevant regulations inside out and was 100% correct in all her estimates of how things needed to move forward. She was tactful and honest and forthright in her negotiations with potential buyers and kept us in the loop at every step. Her judgment about the timing of the sale and the offering price proved to be totally sound and the net result was that we sold it for quite a bit above the asking price in a matter of a few days after it was listed. She was so thorough in her presentation of the property that the escrow proceeded with no contingencies and was closed within the projected time frame. On top of all this, she is simply a delightful and personable realtor who really goes out to bat for her clients and goes above and beyond in her efforts to serve them.

Beyond being an expert agent, Steven is the one of the most caring, dedicated individuals, and will work tirelessly to make sure you buy the home of your dreams. We spent weekend after weekend visiting homes until we found the right one, and then negotiated for the right price. I couldn't imagine the process without him!

Compliments for Guy Hector

Highly likely to recommend

- Roland S.

Being a designer/builder, I have had the privilege of having met numerous agents, acting on my behalf, listing and selling my work. Guy is presently the selling agent of my choice. He takes the time to completely understand all the attributes the home offers. He is very professional and personal with interested parties and takes the time to guide and explain the project to its fullest. I have complete trust and confidence in Guy Hector, representing my work.

Tressana is extremely pleasant and greets you with a smile. She represented me on a dual agency lease deal. She is very responsive, always answered my calls/texts, and available to accommodate my schedule. She has been so helpful. I called her about the property only seconds after it came on the market and she not only answered my phone call and my questions but accommodated to show me the place in less than 24 hours. Tressana took pride in representing me and truly made me feel that she cares deeply for her clients. She is the person to get you ahead of the real estate game, work to get you the deal and seal it with a smile.

My family had worked with Tressana once before, but this was my first time working with her. She was always professional, helpful, and went above and beyond to help me get the property I wanted. I had the added wrinkle of being in Africa for the first 2 months of the home search and therefore couldn't be there to look at the houses myself or always be available a the right time. She worked with other members of my family to look through all of the homes and narrow them down to just the few she knew I would be interested in. She even put all of my forms online so that I could sign them electronically as I couldn't be there in person. She was a true expert and went above and beyond to find me the property I wanted. Plus, I got a very nice gift after the process was all done!

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.

- Jen W.

Chris is an absolute pro! I could not recommend him more highly. Buying/selling a house is such a sensitive process, and Chris brings a keen sense of strategy, strong interpersonal skills, attention to detail and clear communication to make clients feel comfortable through the inevitable ups and downs. Everyone who crossed paths with me also complimented me on his work. He brought 500% to the process. If you have a chance to work with him, don't miss it!

Compliments for Pia Wolfe

Highly likely to recommend

- D. Retoske

We started looking for homes when the pandemic started and could not find anything we liked. The one home my wife liked had just gotten into escrow. Pia stayed in touch with the listing agent and we got the property on the same day it fell out of escrow and her persuasive methods helped us in not having to compete to get the home. Rick’s knowledge in Appraising & Construction was extremely helpful during the negotiation and inspection process. He was tedious at negotiating price and every single item in the inspection report. They are a powerful duo in the real estate industry and any client will be in the best hands.

I had the pleasure of working with Tressana during the selling of my property and the purchasing of my new home. Without her I would have been scared, lost and confused. When inspectors were needed she arranged everything and explained the process. For every phase of listing my home as well as the new home purchase she dealt and worked well with the other agents. It is because of her that I felt protected. She guided me through everything. Any questions I had she answered and never left me feeling with uncertainty. She is amazing, truly and Angel. If I ever go through the process of purchasing a new home without a doubt Tressana is who I will go to. Her trustworthiness is without a doubt and I whole heartedly recommend her.

How Likely am I to recommend Steve? Well, I've already recommended him and he helped one of good friends by a condo. Steve was great through the whole process. This was my first home and I knew nothing about what I was doing. I had always been warned about real estate agents being too pushy and just trying to make a sale, but Steve was everything but. He made the process very easy on me and I never felt any pressure. It is obvious that Steve loves what he does. He talks about real estate with a passion and is very knowledgeable about the space. Although I knew he had many clients at the same time as me, whenever I spent time with Steve looking at homes, he made me feel like I was his only client. Steve helped me navigate what I wanted in a home. On our first phone call, he had me list out my priorities in what I was looking for and tailored the search to those priorities. When we went to open houses, he asked all the right questions - important questions that I never would have thought to ask. Steve guided me through the whole process until I found my dream home. A home that checked all the boxes of the original priorities I had. When it came time for negotiations, Steve helped me through that as well and we were able to get a great deal for it. After my offer was accepted, I assumed Steve would disappear, but nope, he continued to help me through inspections, Escrow, and everything else that happens until the process is truly complete. All in all, I had a great experience working with Steve and I would highly recommend him to all. 5 Stars!!

- Meg B.

I first met Chris by calling one of his listings in the Hollywood Hills. A couple years later Chris sold my house in the Hills and helped me buy my house in Orange County. During that process, Chris was not only impressive on his knowledge of the area but also on his true partnership he forms with clients. He is super transparent and does not over promise but does over deliver! Over the course of this time and beyond, Chris became a trusted and respected friend of mine. I have not become friends with folks in real estate deals - Chris is a special case!
