SOME KIND WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS
Their preparation of our home for sale -- including updating, staging, open houses, showings, contracts, disclosures and endless details -- resulted in the receipt of multiple offers in less than two weeks on the market. Every aspect of the sale, from the initial contract to the final closing, was handled flawlessly.

Katie and John are both lovely and they work wonderfully together. They were able to help us navigate the LA housing market and find a home that we love. As first time home buyers, even with lots of preparation, we had a steep learning curve. Katie and John were honest in their assessments of homes we saw, knew the process inside and out, and gave invaluable guidance when it came time to negotiate the sale
SARAH + TOM | ALTADENA
During the sale John and Katie were both there to guide me step by step, and were so fun to work with. They styled my home impeccably, delivered a stunning set of professional photos for the listing, created beautiful marketing materials. As a result of both their dedication and follow up skills, we had multiple offers within the first 10 days!
CAREY | HOLLYWOOD HILLS
John and Katie are outstanding. To avoid burying the lede, if you are reading this, you should just stop and move forward with them. You won't find better service anywhere. They are amazing. We had an incredible experience working with John, and we truly can’t recommend highly enough.
First and foremost, John is just a genuinely great person. He is kind, funny, and refreshingly not the stereotypical pushy realtor. We met John through friends who had worked with him and the whole process felt more like working with a trusted friend who just happened to know everything about buying a home, rather than someone hunting a commission. We interviewed several realtors before choosing John, and they all felt so salesy. They also made the whole process seem so daunting and formal; it felt like we were sheep. John was approachable and low-pressure. He did all the real work. We just got to look at houses. We started the process without clear requirements or a specific neighborhood in mind. We also wanted to be choosy because we plan to be here for years, so we told him it may take us a while. That was never an issue, and we never felt pressured.
During the process, John's expertise combined and honesty was exceptional. We wanted to rely on our realtor to evaluate the homes not just find options for us to review, and John always delivered. Other realtors we have worked with make every house seem great. John was candid throughout pointing out flaws, identifying non-starters, and explaining why certain homes wouldn’t be the right fit for us. At the same time, he clearly outlined the benefits of each property. In every house we toured, John uncovered 5–10 pros and cons we never would have noticed on our own.
Finally, (this is no exaggeration) over 50% of the agents we met at showings (including ones we did without John on a whim), the selling realtors raved about how great John and Katie are and that we were in great hands. We even had a couple offers where we got outbid but the selling agent told their client to take our offer instead because the escrow process would be so smooth. The comments we got were typically like: "There are a lot of bad realtors out there; you guys are working with one of the greats." (We always chuckled that those same agents would NOT say that to other people at the open houses). We couldn't agree more and it felt good to hear other experts confirm it. Seriously, work with John and Katie.
JAKE + LIZZY | STUDIO CITY
We decided to work with Katie and John because they had represented the sellers when we bought our condo back in 2017 and had gotten multiple offers on the condo well over what any other unit had sold for in the neighborhood. When we decided to sell the condo 6 years later, we knew we wanted Katie and John to be our agents.
We were nervous about the market and had several friends with condos sitting on the market for months without offers BUT Katie and John did an incredible job. They coordinated painting, cleaning, repairs, staging and photography. Our condo was unrecognizable when they were done.
We got tons of interest on Zillow and had multiple offers within 4 days of the condo being listed. We went into escrow for over asking with a great backup offer as well. Our escrow turned out to be complicated bc of issues with the HOA but Katie guided us through every step and got us to closing day. We were out of state for the entire process and her team did everything, including last minute repairs to get us over the finish line. I couldn't recommend this team more. They go so far above and beyond and we will use them again in a heartbeat!
Thank you SO much Katie, John & Alex.

GRACE | CULVER CITY
Katie and John just helped my wife and I purchase our first home. Anyone shopping in East LA will tell you it's no easy task to find a house that can check off all your boxes and those people would be right. However, Katie and John’s persistence and patience over the past several months made the whole process so much more pleasant. Throughout the search, they understood what we wanted and were constantly looking out for new options as soon as they'd hit the MLS and sometimes before. They would meet us and the drop of a hat to show a home and take the time and care to answer all of our questions.
When it came time to place offers, their team was always quick to have docs ready to sign in order meet all deadlines. Katie and John were great at getting as much info as possible before we submitted offers and counters so we would be able to make the right decisions. They operate on that notion, giving you all the information you need to feel confident in making a decision. When our final offer was accepted, the team did a tremendous job of lining up our inspections and helping us manage communications between the seller, escrow, and our mortgage company. After inspections, they negotiated the credits we wanted back for us from the seller. We were able to close in less than 30 days which is due in large part to the team’s hard work and coordination. We thankfully won't have to look for another home soon, but if the time comes to sell or look for a new home, our first call will be to Katie and John.
