Compliments for Pia Wolfe

Highly likely to recommend

- R. Parkes

Rick & Pia were truly a pleasure to with with. They were professional, personable and timely. As the listing agent during our transaction together, I have never worked with agents of such high caliber. No matter the situation, they always answered their phone, sent documents ahead of schedule and represented their clients interests with the highest level of integrity. They made our transaction so smooth that my clients never felt the true stress of selling their home. I would not only work with Rick & Pia again but I would recommend them to any of my family and friends that are looking to buy or sell in LA & Orange County.

Compliments for Tressana Alouane

Highly likely to recommend

09/04/2018 - mpgreco

This is the second real estate transaction I have done with Tressana. She is simply the best. This one was a purchase of a vacation rental property in Palm Springs. Her knowledge of the market was only surpassed by her ability to find the absolute best people in the dessert - from inspectors, to property managers, to city officials - she worked hard to make sure each person we interacted with was on top of their game. Tressana treated my purchase as if it was her own. She goes over and above. The sellers agent even commented that one of the reasons our offer was accepted was because of how professionally it was presented. He knew how easy she would be to work with simply from the offer! The purchase was smooth and Tressana was available through every step. I highly recommend!

Compliments for Christopher Pickett

Highly likely to recommend

- Mamta

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.

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.

- Dr. Olivia C

Tressana was our Listing Agent for our home in Mandeville Canyon. She is an amazing blend of knowledge and integrity. She guided us deftly through the whole process from preparation to sale. She was a real joy to work with, tirelessly answering every question. Our home sold in 10 days with multiple offers, well above the average for the neighborhood, and above what we dreamed we might get. Her professionalism and expertise is what made this possible. Her guidance through all the paperwork was timely and sensitive while her conscientiousness and pleasant personality removed significant pain from the process. We highly recommend Tressana.

Compliments for Pia Wolfe

Highly likely to recommend

- Victoria & Vince T.

Pia and Rick are a formidable force that you want on your side when it comes to home realty. We were first time home buyers and it was their knowledge, professionalism, and energy that helped us land our beautiful home. Their teamwork is perfection. Rick provides real time data, is extremely detail oriented and also an experienced home appraiser. Pia listened to our story, helped us look for a family community and would go so far as talk to neighbors to learn more. They were with us each step of the process, and allowed us to confidently buy in an extremely high pressure market. In fact, we were able to obtain instant equity. We could not be more thankful and happy with our first home purchase.

Oliver has been my agent for years, and he helped us out of my bachelor condo, into our first family home, and, most recently, into our dream home. He has helped me sell client's homes. He has helped me and my clients fix and flip homes. He has added tremendous value to the process each time. He is an invaluable resource. I trust him intimately, and that is tough thing to say about someone in his business. He's my "go to" guy.

We have known and worked with Oliver for the past 9 years. During that time we have bought a home, rented a guest house, rented the home, and recently sold the home with Oliver. We continue to work with Oliver on investment property over the greater LA area. He has a combination of good personal sense and business sense. He has worked with integrity and speed. We highly recommend him as a realtor and expert on local properties and markets.

Compliments for Rick Tyberg

Highly likely to recommend

- Emily K., Beverly Hills

Rick seemed to have the best grasp of the situation when we interviewed Realtors to sell our house. Since we had already purchased a home elsewhere, we were not looking to have the house sit on the market for a long time and then have to continually lower the price to chase the market. Rick presented the best plan to achieve our goal. His estimate was the highest of the over half-dozen agents we interviewed and he had the house sold within days of the listing being posted, and at a higher price. During the escrow period Rick and his team were constantly in contact with us. Very few days went by without some contact. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. I never once felt anything other than we made the absolute best choice in choosing Rick and his team to sell our house.
