- 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!

- Hays

When I first started to look for a place to live in LA it was completely overwhelming. I’m so happy I have Ernie on my side. He helped me understand the different parts of the city and neighborhoods that I was unaware of. He has been so helpful, accommodating and extremely easy to talk to. He has made this process so easy and stress free for me and I can’t thank him enough. fake rolex sea dweller

03/04/2019 - Zillow

Ernie Carswell's extensive knowledge of the Los Angeles market helped me achieve my real estate goals. The best kind of sales people are those who teach, and Ernie could teach a PHD course in real estate. He explained how I should price my condo to get multiple offers. It worked and sold within one week. In looking for a house with high appreciation potential, Ernie steered me to two of LA's up and coming neighborhoods, actually drawing lines around the streets on which I should look. A year and a half later, I am so pleased with my choice of home and neighborhood, which I would never have found without Ernie Carswell. Ernie delivers his expertise with a professional, kind, and positive demeanor. It's no wonder he's LA's top agent. replica rolex gmt master for sale

Ernie is truly the best. He and his amazing team made our selling and buying experience seamless. They were there every step of the way to help answer questions and put our mind at ease. They took amazing photos and had our Loft sold 5 days after it hit the market… and for above asking price. We closed in two weeks!!! The whole process took us three weeks… who does that!!!! Ernie and his team were just as helpful in finding our dream house. Within two weeks we put an offer in on our dream home, closed three weeks later and moved in.. The whole process took us less than 7 weeks from sale to purchase to move in.. Amazing…. Ernie is not just a realtor but a friend for life….

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.

Compliments for Michelle Levin

Highly likely to recommend

- M McKay

Michelle has worked with my wife and I for over a year to find a home for our family of five, and the process has been nothing short of extraordinary. Not only does she know the LA market inside and out, but she responds immediately and enthusiastically to all correspondence as if she doesn’t have any other clients. On top of that, Michelle takes a creative approach to home buying to help her clients get into the home of their choice at terms that might not seem feasible at first glance. She has thought of and presented so many creative solutions to help us close on our home, and she has the relationships and negotiation savvy to actually make her great ideas come to fruition. Michelle is a true partner and the only person that we’ll ever work with in the LA market. We’ve only worked with her to buy, but when the day comes to sell she’ll definitely have our listing as well.

Compliments for Mark Douglas

Highly likely to 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 Rick Tyberg

Highly likely to recommend

- David D., Los Angeles

We would not have been able to get the house we wanted without Rick. One phone call and some pictures was all he needed to get a sense of what we wanted. His knowledge of the area helped us jump onto the house as soon as it was listed. In this housing climate, we had to be fast, but we were never rushed. Rick was extremely efficient in letting us know what our options and rights were as a buyer. He handled the seller's agent, inspections, and made sure our lender stayed on track. He truly kept track of all of it making the home buying process smooth and easy. He really looked out for our interests and made sure we did everything right to make the sale. It's a shame we won't be buying another house for a long time, he was that great to work with!

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 Joseph Nwabuzor

Highly likely to recommend

- Danielle C.

Joe did an amazing job helping us sell our family home after the death of our mom. He was sensitive to our needs, accommodated our busy schedules and was extremely professional. He understood the personal nature of the difficult decision to see the home and who we hoped would then become the new owners. This was particularly important to our family and he nailed it. We were fortunate that it sold quickly, and without any hassles. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone wanting to buy or sell a property!

Compliments for Tressana Alouane

Highly likely to recommend

- Chris H - Senior VP NBC Universal Theatrical

Tressana is, simply put, in a league of her own. As a first-time homebuyer, I had a million questions, a million concerns, and a million different priorities – often in conflict – all of which could have driven many agents away. But with kindness, knowledge, passion, and honesty, Tressana was my unwavering advocate in finding, and eventually purchasing, the home of my dreams. She is thoughtful, smart, and inspires her clients to hone in on their most authentic house-hunting objectives, and with patience, commitment, and good cheer along the way, end up exactly where they should. Character and integrity along the way makes a huge difference in any sort of business, and Tressana has it in spades. I’m so grateful for her guidance throughout my purchase, and know that whenever the time comes for another real estate transaction, she’ll be the first person I call.
