With great patience, Amanda and Chris led this first time home buyer through each step of the home buying process. They were always there with unbiased guidance, helping Boyfriend and I find and buy the home of our dreams. Was it fate that we found our forever home on our first day house hunting with Amanda? Or was it Amanda's many years of experience? Probably a bit of both! Did their expertise and knowledge make our home buying journey an easily mapped process? Definitely!! We couldn't be happier with our choice of Amanda and Chris as our realtors - they always came through! I would highly recommend Amanda, Chris, and their whole team if you are looking for a representation that is caring, responsive, knowledgeable, and affordable. read more

We had gone to Amanda many times over the years and after almost ten years we finally pulled the trigger and put ourselves out there to buy a house. She walked us through the process and was available when we needed her. We highly recommend Amanda!! We are grateful for her! read more

Amanda and her team are SO good at what they do! Working with Amanda was truly such a delight. I'm not a first-time homebuyer and have worked with other agents in the past, but Amanda truly goes above and beyond. She's friendly, communicative, and assertive - everything you need in a buyer's agent. She truly knows what she's doing / the market like the back of her hand. I won't work with anyone else in the future! read more

This review is presented through the lens of a young couple looking to buy their first home in a crazy Southern California Market. My fiancé and I tried, at first, to find a home with a different real estate agent. We saw our first 20 homes or so with an agent who was perfectly lovely but didn't ever quite understand the perfect home for us. We took a break from looking, and decided to go in a different direction the second time around. Enter Amanda and team. We found them here on Yelp, the day we decided to give it another go I put my feelers out for a new agent to try to better understand our vision for our future. Immediately I received a response. Amanda was quick to respond and when it came to our first conversation she was present with a plan. I recognized her professionalism and confidence right away. At the beginning of our second run into real estate I knew enough not to trust a decision this big to just anyone, and Amanda passed with flying colors. As first time home buyers, we may be professionals in our own industries, but our industries are not real estate. As a couple we were looking for someone who espoused the same values & work ethic that we try to bring to the table in our own professions. Amanda brought exactly this- in spades. We immediately felt that she was working towards understanding what *we* wanted and the home that contained *our* future. Going from place to place with someone who was calmly trying to understand what we wanted our future to look like made the entire process much easier this time around. In the end, when we closed escrow on the house we worked with Amanda to find, we reflected on the fact that the deal we made, brokered by her and her awesome team, was one that had our identity stamped on it. Not only did they find us a house in an insane market, they found us our house, they found us our future. Our wholehearted endorsement behind this team. If you were at all on the fence, consider Amanda and co., a group worthy of your business, time, and visions of the rest of your lives. read more

Amanda Bialack-Stewart - The House They Found For Us - Real Estate Services Near Me

We worked with Amanda and Ethan last June to buy our first home in Woodland Hills. My experience was phenomenal with Amanda and her team! I wish I could give her ten stars! She was always available when we had had questions and got back to us so quickly. She was professional and relatable, making the very scary process of buying a home for the first time actually fun! She was so knowledgeable and really worked hard for us to help us negotiate the ins and outs of offers and inspections and signing more papers than we ever have in our life. Following the closing of our home she sent us a sweet note and house warming gift and remains open for questions should they ever arise. I couldn't recommend this team more. If you want a team that is open to questions, responds quickly and makes you feel like you are the only client, this is the team to work with! We love you Amanda! read more

Amanda Bialack-Stewart - Our first home bought with the help of Amanda Bialack! - Real Estate Services Near Me

At first the sale of my uncle's fixer-upper looked like a cinch, but it quickly became complicated. Amanda was fantastic! She guided us through the entire process easily and smoothly. Her communication with us was excellent -- we always knew right where we were in the process. She explained each step to us clearly and finally got us over the finish line! I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a realtor who knows her business and provides the much-appreciated personal touch. Thank you Amanda! read more

I have had such a positive experience with Amanda. She walks you through the entire process and will answer any and all questions. Her focus is her client and she will work with and for you. Whatever decisions you make, she will support you. I always felt comfortable speaking with her and trust her. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell!! Even now, I've lived in my home for over a year and she still reaches out and makes me feel like part of her client family. Whatever the future holds, should I or someone I know, need a realtor I will recommend Amanda! read more

Let me start out by saying Amanda is awesome! She took our family, with absolutely no understanding about the home buying process, and helped us find out what is out there, and what we can afford. Explaining the entire process. She found great places in 4 areas! She is so patient, and always available to answer questions. She also has an innate ability to to know what you need, and want. What I like the best about her is her straight shooting. There is no lying, or pressure from her or her associates. She just tells it straight, and let us make the decision. Now I am writing this before we have bought anything, which says something about the way she conducts business. We know when it comes time to buy, we will be going through no one else. If you are looking for an amazing agent --- Look no farther than Amanda Bialack at http://bialackandassociates.com/ Well worth the time and effort. read more

Amanda is the best. We had a long and complicated escrow and she made it seem easy. She always looks for ways to safe you money and is incredibly thorough. We have used her for two homes now and will definitely use her again if the occasion arises. read more

Amanda and her team, Melissa, are truly amazing!!!! My fiancé and I were searching for our first home purchase, which can be extremely nerve-racking (even more so during a pandemic), but Amanda and her team were there every step of the way. Answered all our questions timely. She was extremely patient during our process in finding the right house to call a home! We couldn't be happier!! They also worked directly with our lender and made the process as seamless as possible. We couldn't have asked for a better team supporting us! I've already referred a personal friend to Amanda for their realtors needs! She's the best!!!!!! read more

Amanda Bialack-Stewart - Real Estate Services Near Me

We really do not have enough positive things to say about Amanda and her team. From the moment we had our first zoom call, my husband and I knew we wanted to go with her. She was so knowledgable, personable, transparent, and had a great energy from that initial meeting through our closing (and even beyond that). We constantly mentioned throughout our home buying process how happy and fortunate we were to have her as our realtor. She also connected us with our lender, Bryan Moss, who was just as exceptional. Amanda, Bryan, and their teams are so thorough, efficient, and will work tirelessly for you. We know Amanda had other clients, but it didn't feel like that. We felt so taken care of and were guided throughout the process. In this crazy market, it felt very discouraging to buy a house with so many offers on so many homes. One of the best things about Amanda was how she stayed so positive throughout our experience and reassured us that we would find OUR home. She was incredibly responsive to any and all questions we had and it never felt like we were bothering her--she encouraged us to reach out to make sure we were comfortable and informed during the entire process. We also really appreciated that she never pressured us into buying--she actually made sure that we never settled and only went forward on houses that we really loved. We were very nervous and anxious that we would have to settle on a house we weren't really happy with or we wouldn't be able to get a house at all. Miraculously, Amanda worked her magic and we were able to close on a home that we loved and could really see our future in. We literally would not have gotten this home without her. Every time we drive down our quiet, tree-lined street, we are in awe that this is now our neighborhood. It's now our home. We didn't have to meet many realtors before choosing to go with Amanda and we would absolutely recommend her to everyone. On top of everything, Amanda is hilarious and so much fun to be touring houses with. Although we don't miss going to the open houses, we do miss seeing her as often as we did! Don't wait or think about it--go with Amanda if you're buying or selling a home. read more

Amanda helped us purchase our first home in 2015. We still remember how seamless she made that process. We stayed in the loop with Bialack and Associates through newsletters and social media. In 2019 we looked at other homes in our neighborhood to get ideas of how to renovate our 1951 tract home to better suit our family's needs and dreams. We wondered if it would be easier to move, and Amanda graciously offered us her expertise while we were in the planning stage. We had to get out of a HERO loan and wanted to use our VA loan again, so she coordinated talks with our lender. Together we realized it was possible, and we set out on the next chapter of the adventure: a concurrent sale and purchase! Amanda and Ethan stayed on the ball with preparatory appointments and showings of our first home while taking us on the hunt for our new home. It was a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs! We wouldn't have been able to hold on without their expertise, basically constant communication, and great personalities to validate our feelings and keep us calm and confident. The team, including Valerie and Alycia, always had the energy, positivity, and understanding that we needed. We were right to trust them with everything. I got to work with Ethan a lot during this process. Having his perspective was so helpful! He and Amanda's styles complement each other so well. I felt like we had every method of assistance at our disposal between the two of them. Working with a team made it so someone was always available for open houses and showings. It was easy to leave our home and our search in their hands. We ended up selling our home for $10k over asking to a really great couple, thanks to Amanda & Ethan's perseverance and professionalism. After negotiating the best possible terms for our purchase, we are in our DREAM PROPERTY, chillin' pool side in our Twin Palms oasis. I am writing this during the social distancing order in LA County, so I know now more than ever how important HOME is. I cannot believe how lucky we are that we are in our beautiful, clean, spacious, updated home at a comfortable monthly mortgage. Thank you SO MUCH Amanda, Ethan, Valerie - BIALACK AND ASSOCIATES read more

This is overdue but we wanted to move in to our new house before we write this review..... We had an amazing experience in our house buying/selling experience. Thanks to Amanda and her awesome team (Melissa and Nate)! We were able to find and buy the house of our dreams and sell our condo at top dollar all in a matter of a couple of months which is almost unheard of in this sellers' market. Amanda is always accessible, has sound advice and a pleasure to work with. She also has a stellar network of people/companies that has worked with us through the process. Her recommended mortgage contact is a GOAT, the escrow company made it a smooth transaction and we even closed our condo sale ahead of schedule. All in all an amazing experience. The Yelp reviews are true! We highly Amanda and her team! read more

This process would not have been bearable if it weren't for Melissa Paul and Amanda Bialack.  Through every step of the journey, their guidance was invaluable.  They were always available to answer any questions, and truly went above and beyond to pursue exactly what we wanted.  They were a joy to engage with on a personal level and we found ourselves looking forward to each appointment, not only to see a new potential house, but also to learn more from their expertise as we continued our search.  After our purchase, they even created a checklist to ensure we could be successful in the transition as new home owners. We felt so fortunate to get this recommendation from our friends, and know that Melissa and Amanda would be an equally revered choice for anyone who has the opportunity to work with them. read more

Amanda Bialack-Stewart - Real Estate Services Near Me

Amanda was a fantastic realtor and made finding our dream home possible. Simply put, in this market you can't rely on a realtor unless they are fully invested in your goals. Amanda took the time to learn about me and my wife and exactly what our housing needs were. In doing so she found us a home within our budget that met all of our expectations. If you are serious about finding a home, call Amanda now! read more

Amanda Bialack-Stewart - Real Estate Services Near Me

As first time home buyers, we needed someone experienced, transparent, patient, and willing to answer our many many questions. Amanda was all of that and so much more. For a couple months, Amanda and Nate followed us all over LA to look at homes. Together we explored the Valley, El Sereno, Leimert Park, East LA, and SGV. It's a tough market for buyers and Amanda really prepared us for it. We appreciate her wealth of knowledge and understanding of current market conditions. We recently moved into our new home and cant be happier. If you're looking to buy or sell, then do not hesitate to reach out to Amanda. read more

My husband and I recently worked with Amanda to buy our first house and she's great!! She made the process easy and smooth and always recommended what was the best for us. Amanda and her team offered a great service, great communication, super fast responses when we had any questions. I would definitely recommend Amanda and will use her service again if needed :D read more

I could not have asked for a more experienced Realtor than Amanda. She is a person who gets to know her clients and then does what is best for them. She may not always agree but will always explain herself. Amanda truly is a # 1 Realtor. My husband and I were lucky enough to hook up with her through our daughter and son in law. Amanda sold their old home and also took care of their new home. She has become like family to all of us. Amanda was able to sell our townhouse in Santa Clarita, which is nowhere near her Broker office and help us buy a townhouse in Simi Valley, which again is nowhere near her Broker office. We were those people that had questions at all times of day and would e-mail Amanda no matter what day or time it was. She always got back to us and never made us feel that we were inconveniencing her. No problem or question was too dumb or silly for her to answer. If I ever had to sell or purchase another home, I would contact Amanda in a second. She did a good enough job for us that we never intend on moving again. I cannot end this review without mentioning Valerie, Amanda's assistant. Whenever Amanda had a conflict of time, Valerie was always there ready to help. She is very knowledgeable and just a sweetheart. If anyone needs an excellent Realtor for all of your needs, Amanda should be the person you call. read more

I have known Amanda for many years now, and have been continuously impressed with not only her overall knowledge of all things real estate but of her integrity towards her clients and her work ethic. She puts her clients needs above all else and encourages them to ask questions so that the scary process of buying and selling is simplified and understandable. As a nurse, we work unusual hours, but Amanda or someone on her team is always available for me and the countless other nurses at my hospital with whom she has worked with. I can't recommend Amanda any higher. Wether you are buying or selling or even just have questions. She is the real estate agent I trust and work with. read more

We found Amanda through Yelp and were very satisfied with her team's guidance and support during our search for a new in Woodland Hills. Additionally, Amanda helped my (very picky) parents find a townhome that suited their needs. Amanda and her team are responsive, flexible, and knowledgable. They are also just really nice and relatable people. We recommend them for sure! read more

Amanda is, by far, the best agent we have ever worked with. Previously, we worked with 3 different agents for buying and selling other homes. My husband and I found Amanda based on her Yelp reviews and after interviewing a few other agents decided to go with her. She was always nice and professional, even when we were stressed and giving her a hard time. She likes to take the approach that everyone should walk away from buying and selling a property feeling that they didn't get taken advantage of. I know the people we sold our house to are happy and we are happy, which in this climate I think is unfortunately unusual. And we got the price we wanted. We moved out of Los Angeles, but if we ever moved back I would without a doubt have Amanda find us a house. *As a bonus her assistant Valerie is very nice too. read more

If everyone approached their job with the level of professionalism, dedication, and integrity that we experienced with Amanda and her team, the world would be a much better place! My wife Sheryl and I were first time home buyers, and after a disappointing experience with the first realtor we tried, it became very important for us to find someone who we could genuinely trust and rely upon. After receiving a recommendation for Amanda through a friend, we decided to give her a try, and it didn't take long to figure out that we had made a good choice! Amanda is hard-working, friendly, and very good at what she does. She is also an excellent and thorough communicator, which is so important when there are big decisions to be made, and lots of money on the line. My wife and I ended up putting an offer in on a house before we had a buyer for our condo, and although we were lucky enough to have our offer accepted, we ended up in a very complicated, contingency-laden deal, and a dramatically shortened timeline in which we needed to sell our place. On top of this, we had a sizable deposit on the line, so the pressure to perform was high. Thankfully, we had Amanda and her team, co-agent Rob Gerard, and assistant Valerie Spaziani, helping us on both the buying and the selling side, because they were able to quickly find us a buyer at a price that we could work with, and deftly navigate us through the twists and turns of a tricky, concurrent escrow situation where everything had to happen at specific times, and within a very narrow window. And all of this was over the holidays. There was a fair amount of nerves on our side throughout the whole process, but Amanda always made herself available for explanations, advice, and reassurance. She would give her opinion when asked, but also made it very clear that we were in charge, and that she was there to work for us. As first time buyers, she made us feel empowered, and earned our sincere trust that she would look out for our best interests. There were more bumps in the road before we finally closed escrow, but each one was handled with creativity and professionalism. We ended up being her first deal of 2017, but I'm sure there will be many, many more. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family. read more

Amanda was amazing to work with! From the beginning to the end it was a smooth process and she was able to get us the house we wanted even in a crazy market like it is these days. We can highly recommend her and her team for all your Realty needs. Thanks again for a great service! read more

Amanda held our hands through our first home buying experience. She was so patient with us, and is very dedicated to her clients. From meeting us right away to show us a house I found online, to answering my same questions over and over again, to watching our rambuncious son while we looked a a property, Amanda does it all! But what really makes Amanda great is that she really is there to support our needs and our best interests. We were on the fence about buying a more expensive, new construction house in a farther location vs. staying in the valley and settling for something OK. Amanda encouraged us and knew we would be happier in the new construction home. Later I found out that Amanda would get less commission on the house we chose which really tells me that she just doesn't want to, "make the sale." Do yourself a favor and call Amanda to be your realtor! read more

Amanda and her team are amazing! Amanda is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. She is dedicated to her clients and has their best interest in mind. She is also quick to respond to questions. I was a first time home buyer and nervous about the process. Amanda walked me through how everything works and kept me informed the whole way. In this crazy sellers market it seemed like finding a house, let alone a decent house, was impossible. However, I now have a house that I love, and the only reason my offer was accepted is because of how incredible Amanda is. I highly recommend Amanda. There is no way that a better real estate agent exists. read more

My boyfriend and I searched and searched on our own, for a home that was right for us, for about a year. We just couldn't find anything that was what we really wanted. I was fed up, so we called Pinnacle, Amanda Bialack was the realtor assigned to us, and right off the bat we loved her. She was very knowledgeable, and we felt comfortable with her from start to finish. She was very persistent, and made sure she followed through with everything we needed and asked for. We will definitely recommend her to our friends, family, and anyone who asks us if we know a good Realtor in the Valley. She is very kind, energetic, trustworthy, and she did an outstanding job for us. We are very happy to have worked with her! read more

I met Amanda by yelp in 2018. She helped me in conflict situations, and handle it in a very professional way. I highly recommend Amanda. She knows the area very well and is a very energetic realtor. Simply Thanks read more

As first time home buyers, the whole process was very daunting. Amanda was very helpful and thorough in explaining the process in our initial meeting and then reiterating and explaining each step of the process again as we were actually going through it. She helped us find our home after a few weeks working with her and her assistant. While the whole process was very stressful, Amanda was always very reassuring and made everything go as smoothly as possible. She's also been an amazing resource for recommendations and any questions we have had even after we closed on our home. There were a lot of decisions to be made, and Amanda was always there to offer her advice. We really enjoyed working with her and are so happy she helped us find a home that we absolutely love. read more

"Amanda is just awesome!" These are the words you'll be saying throughout your entire time working with her. As a first time home buyer, there were many challenges I had to face. From learning the process of home buying, to what to look for when viewing a property, and especially when going through the offer, escrow, and closing process. So you can imagine my relief when I had someone like Amanda with me every step of the way. That's why I can't say enough good things about her. She's friendly, energetic, kind, and genuinely cares about your well being. She took the time to walk me through every question, concern, and process I came across, and always made me feel safe and comfortable, no matter who I was dealing with. I can honestly say that I have never met a realtor that had such dedication, and passion, for her line of work than Amanda. Thank you for giving me such a good experience Amanda. You have become good friend, and someone I will definitely contact when I start going through this process all over again. :) read more

I have known Amanda for many years now, and she is one of the kindest, smartest, honest, and hard working people I know. She is extremely knowledgeable about all things real estate. I feel very fortunate to be able to have Amanda as an incredible resource and friend. If you are looking for a Realtor there is no better choice in my opinion than Amanda. Big Thanks Amanda for everything!!! read more

I had to move my mother and her boyfriend into assisted living. A very stressful time! Thank Goodness I chose Amanda to be my Mother's real estate agent. She sold the house, a total fixer upper that was dirty to boot, in a week and a half. For $50,000 over asking. Just do what she says. She knows the business. Thank you Amanda! read more

If you're reading this and blindly looking for a realtor, your search ends here - go with Amanda! My husband and I had been looking for our home for over a year unsuccessfully. Once we found Amanda on Yelp, she made all the difference in our approach. She was quick to respond to the initial message and set up a time to virtually meet us. She offered several new tactics our previous realtor did not, and worked tirelessly to find us our perfect home. She wasn't pushing to make a sale we weren't comfortable with - her goal was our goal, to find a home we loved. We found our home after a few months and purchased it under asking. Her professionalism, personality, and negotiation skills are superb! It was easy to communicate with Amanda and her team from the start all the way through the sale and after. Our questions were always answered and she explained every detail of the process and document we signed. We recommend her to anyone looking for real estate services. Thank you, Amanda! read more

I would strongly recommend using Amanda as your real estate agent. She is very professional and knowledgeable about the Los Angeles real estate market.

We recommend her to everyone we know for all their real estate needs. read more

Amanda is just fabulous to work with. She is our Rock-star Realtor. Give me any chance to sing her praises. Amanda sold my mum's house of 60's years. She did it with respect, and made it as easy as possible for both my brother and I, and for my mother who was not well. She was always pleasant, responsive, and very professional. Her commitment to her clients is inspiring. Amanda kept us on track, and always came back to us with reasonable and practical solutions. She made it easy. Amanda makes it happen. She is not pushy, but does make things happen. So expect results! It was a pleasure to work with Amanda. I highly recommend Amanda as a Realtor for anyone buying or selling a home. Let her do it right, for you. read more
