Compliments for Mark Douglas

Highly likely to recommend

- Ross & Elle W.

We have known Mark Douglas since buying our first home in Bel Air almost 8 years ago. Mark came to us through a trusted referral source and has evolved from being our agent to a great, personal friend. He continues to assist us with our housing needs. The prime, Westside Residential Real Estate business has run in Mark’s family blood for decades and being indigenous to the neighborhoods makes him an ideal asset whether you are buying, selling or simply prospecting. Personally, we really enjoy Mark’s company, as he has been a friend first, transactional second….and that is hugely appreciated.

Compliments for Pia Wolfe

Highly likely to recommend

- M. Taylor

Rick & Pia went above and beyond in helping sell my home. They helped in giving advice about remodeling and even went as far as talking to the contractors for me. Rick’s expertise in studying comps as an appraiser helped in strategizing how to market my home which got me almost 10% over asking. Their service and knowledge was outstanding and they are my Real Estate Advisors from now on.

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!

- Virginia & Marc C.

I have worked with Mark in the buying and selling of three properties. Mark was proactive in his approach to locating a home for us, many times finding a match for us before it was on the market. He is clearly well respected by his peers, allowing for smooth working relationships before and during the escrow process. He was very patient through our searches and part of our team all along the way.

Compliments for Amy Davis

Highly likely to recommend

- Carter C.

When I bought my first home, I was a nervous wreck. Amy helped me locate my dream home, negotiated a great price well below what I was willing to pay, and then managed the inspections and financing with efficiency and expertise. She made the process a pleasure, which is why I became a repeat customer. I can’t imagine working with anyone else.

Tressana was amazing. She's so personable yet incredilbly professional. Every step of the process of the sale of our home was thoroughly explained and took all the worry out of the process. Everyone she recommended - from painters to stagers were the absolute best of the best. And, while we were sad to sell our first home together, she guided us through every offer and counter offer with empathy and ease. I highly recommend her to everyone!

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.

Great experience working with Amy selling our last house and finding a new one! Couldn’t be happier with her expertise and commitment to finding us just what we were looking for. (Plus, she makes the process fun and as stress-free as humanly possible!)

Compliments for Lori Michelle Marks

Highly likely to recommend

- SK

I can honestly say that Lori knows the answers to any questions you have about buying or selling your home and answers everything so you completely understand. She’s always ready and willing to be available for anything that comes up. I have bought and sold 2 homes in the past with Lori and she made it as stress free as possible. I can’t imagine going through this process with any one else. I know I’m going to get the best deal possible on both ends.
