As I sit in our new home writing this review, I can't thank Brad enough! This was my first home buying experience and I couldn't believe how smooth (dare I say easy?) it was. His help and guidance was greatly appreciated. We got the home we wanted without bidding wars or fuss. He made what I thought would be an amazingly stressful nightmare of a job into something much simpler. It's our perfect newly wed home and we're proud to call it ours. I highly recommend HomebaseLA. Buying a place in Los Angeles IS possible! read more

Brad was our agent for our first home buying journey, and we couldn't be happier! We were rather picky buyers and refused to pay seller's market prices despite being very much in a seller's market in LA. Brad was patient with us, helping us put together 10 offers and arranging dozens of showings as we searched for our dream home. His estimates of what each house would end up selling for were spot on. Finally we found our perfect home at the perfect price and Brad navigated the offer and escrow process deftly and with good humor, helping us get through the complexity with our sanity intact. We will be strongly recommending Brad to all of our friends! read more

It was twenty years and two months ago that, with Ron Roth's assistance as my buyer's agent, I purchased a two-story house with Cape Cod architecture in a very charming neighborhood in the eastern part of Chatsworth in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles. I owned that house for just over five years. Thanks partially to my ownership of that house, I now am truly enjoying my retirement. Ron is an excellent professional and I highly recommend him. Ron, I always will be eternally grateful to you. Thank you!!!!! read more

Working with Brad and Ron was a pleasure from start to finish. As first time buyers, we were, of course, new to the whole process. They were very patient and helpful in making sure we understood how the entire process worked. We never felt pressure. They always had our best interests at heart and we never felt pushed into making decisions. We would (and have) recommended Brad & Ron to other people looking to buy or sell their homes, without reservation! read more

I can't say enough great things about Brad. We spent the better part of 2016 together as he helped us navigate first buying a house followed by selling our condo. He is patient, smart, knows his stuff, and did I mention patient? For most of us, the purchase of real estate is terrifying, and Brad is absolutely the best person to help you alleviate the fear as you buy or sell (or both!). read more

I really enjoyed my experience working with Brad Reed. Brad successfully guided us through many of the pitfalls of home-buying, tirelessly searched for good homes in our budget, diligently researched potential opportunities and joyfully celebrated with us when escrow closed on our first new home. My husband and I couldn't have been more pleased with the level of service, commitment and knowledge. read more

I worked with Brad Reed on a condo purchase at the end of 2008. I was unfamiliar with LA, and had only two 4-day trips in which to decide which neighborhoods to search, and then to put an offer on a place. Brad facilitated all the madness with unfailing good humor, in-depth knowledge and unflagging cooperation and assistance. He listened to my needs, made suggestions, and then listened to my feedback on those suggestions. We truly worked together every step of the way. I've been in my condo for over five years now and I couldn't be happier with the home Brad helped me to find. I would recommend Brad without hesitation to anyone looking for a place to call home - he is a pleasure to work with, and knows his stuff! read more

Brad was excellent in leading us through the process of purchasing our first home. He was very patient and informative. We trusted him 100%. Burbank is one of the toughest neighborhoods to buy in because housing inventory is so low, but he managed to find something for us within our budget and our desired area. Truly satisfied with his services and our purchase. Our best investment to date. read more

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Brad and Ron. My husband and I owned a condo and were ready to sell and upgrade to a single family home. From the very first meeting with Brad and Ron we felt that we were in good hands. Being a first time home buyer, we had a lot of questions about the process and Brad always took the time to make sure we fully understood everything from the selling of one to the buying of the other. We always felt that he had out best interest at heart. He was on top of every little detail and would answer our calls and emails immediately. Not only extremely professional, but very personal and pleasant to work with. I would give ten stars if I could. Truly! read more

Brad & Ron really know the real estate industry and how to take care of their clients' needs. Thy are the best realtors with whom we have ever worked - and we've worked with a few! When preparing to list our home, they met with us to discuss the market, repairs to be made before listing, and the overall process. They offered staging advice that other agents did not, and gave us excellent pricing strategies that were both realistic and effective. We sold our home in one day, and got the full price we were asking! Ron and Brad were committed to keeping our interests in mind throughout escrow as well. If we had tried to do this on our own, the sale would have surely fallen through. Brad & Ron knew that this was a stressful & emotional time for us. They offered us only sage guidance and responsive care. We never worried, because we knew we were in good hands. When it came to our search for a new home, Brad made the process efficient & fun. He kept us apprised of the properties that matched our criteria as soon as they became available & he helped us to focus our search on the right type of home & price range for us. He made himself available to us on our tight schedule & was always professional, friendly and insightful. With Brad's help, we found the perfect home. He helped us to see past cosmetic fixes and made suggestions that were key to completing our project of turning a 1981 townhouse into a modern & architecturally distinctive home. Brad further helped us in deciding upon an offer amount that won us the property at an amazing value without the process sinking into endless dreaded negotiations and counters. Past agents we have used would say things like "offer what makes you comfortable" - that NEVER helps those of us who are not in the real estate industry. Instead, Brad knew our budget and guided us to a number that would not be so low as to offend the seller (we didn't want him to walk away from the process), but that would still be a great deal for us. It was a smooth transaction thanks to Brad. He took good care of us. We recently recommended RE/MAX-Empower to some friends and, using Brad as their realtor, they now own their very first home! We will keep recommending Brad & Ron. They know their business - Los Angeles Real Estate, and taking good care of their buyers & sellers. read more

This is a long-overdue review for the tremendous services provided me by Brad Reed & his team. Brad helped me to relocate on a short time frame. His knowledge of the Valley was extremely helpful. He really listened to my needs and helped me consider the options. He helped me line up financing, make an offer, and get through all the hoops necessary to close the deal. Long after delivering my new house keys himself, he continued to be helpful and supportive, providing me with solid references for some home improvement projects. Brad is truly a caring professional. I highly recommend that you consider consulting with him. read more

I've worked with Brad for several years now and he has continuously shown excellent service to his clients, always being very pleasant, and removing the pressure from the purchase/selling process. I would recommend Brad to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. read more

My fiance' and I very recently had a wonderful experience working with Brad. Our very first house! He was so kind, relatable and VERY patient with us as we learned about a brand new market. Talk about an excellent crash course! Moving to another state was already a major adjustment but Brad made the transition much smoother. I would highly recommend working with Brad, he really knows his stuff! read more

Brad Reed was of invaluable help to me in purchasing a home in 2009. I was not only a first-time home buyer, I had just suffered a personal loss. Brad was extremely knowledgeable, unfailingly courteous and good-humored while I looked at over 100 houses (!!), patient, kind and supportive. He went out of his way to explore neighborhoods I suggested (which were off the beaten path then), as well as expanding my knowledge of possible locations. He listened while I made decisions and then revised them, and then revised our strategies accordingly. He took my queries and concerns seriously. He never pressured me to think above my budget and he taught me many things to watch for and consider, not only in home buying but home owning. Things I still keep in mind. And he made the paperwork seem easy -probably because he took care of most of it! And he was genuinely happy for me, and helped me celebrate, when I finally found my house - which I still love. On top of all this, Brad is clever and fun and and helps you remember that even along the sometimes rocky road of house hunting and buying, there are always laughs to be had, and searching for a home is interesting and exciting. read more

Working with Brad was wonderful! Having bought and sold a home in MN, navigating the LA market involved a huge learning curve, but Brad's help and advice made the whole experience much easier. He was always available to take our calls and was incredibly patient with our never-ending questions. I feel like we changed our minds and shifted gears a hundred times, but he was always flexible and remained a great sounding board for any concerns we had. I know we weren't his only clients, but he certainly made us feel like his most important clients. I get the impression he makes all of his clients feel that way. read more
