We cannot recommend Dan May highly enough. Dan recently sold our home in Castle Heights, just north of Culver City. He actually grew up a few blocks from us, and it shows -- it would be hard to find anyone with a deeper knowledge of the neighborhood. We've known Dan for many years and consider him a friend, but what impressed us most during this transaction was his professionalism, integrity, and expertise. He priced our house thoughtfully and fairly in what was, at the time, a somewhat down market. Thanks to his strategy and local reputation, we received immediate interest from a buyer who ultimately purchased the home. There were no games, no unnecessary drama -- just a straightforward, efficient process. The house sold quickly and with remarkably little hassle. Dan provided excellent guidance on how to present the property at its best. He recommended practical improvements that would genuinely increase value, including interior painting, floor resurfacing, and some needed plumbing and roofing repairs. At our request, he suggested contractors he had successfully worked with before. Every one of them was professional and did outstanding work. Importantly, Dan never pushed anyone on us -- he operates on the principle that the seller makes the decisions; he simply offers experienced guidance. He also arranged staging and photography that showcased the house beautifully. He recommended a small moving company that transported our furniture, donated many items to charity, and responsibly disposed of the rest -- which made our transition much easier. Throughout escrow, Dan managed the details carefully and proactively, ensuring there were no hiccups. The process moved along as smoothly as possible, and we received our funds as quickly as the system allows. One of Dan's greatest strengths is his friendly, positive manner with buyers. People instinctively sense his honesty. He does not work with developers or maintain conflicting interests -- his loyalty is entirely to his clients. That transparency builds trust, and it makes a real difference. All in all, we are more than pleased with the results. If you are considering buying or selling a home, we would recommend Dan without hesitation. read more

In 2008, I was the executor for an elderly relatives estate. The home was in a great deal of disrepair from years of neglect.... not a fun project. Dan was a great resource for all the kinds help an executor needs in a situation of this nature. I was able to execute my fiduciary responsibilities with confidence knowing someone with Dans expertise and referrals to additional highly qualified services was behind me all the way. And, in another transaction,Dan helped me sell a house I really did not want to repair or stage to make the sale any easier. We started the process in late 2008, competing with the holidays and the early stages of a very bad RE market. Dan was helpful and patient with all the details that could have made me crazy. He got the job done so we could close by early April 2009. Eternally grateful for his expertise and the results. read more

I have known Dan May for many years and have always relied on him for his deep knowledge of housing availability and pricing in our neighborhood. When it came time to find a tenant for my guest house, he was the natural choice. Dan is a true professional. He saved me an immense amount of time by sifting through numerous candidates and only presenting those who truly met my criteria. His intuition and expertise resulted in finding a suitable tenant within just three weeks, and the entire process was incredibly smooth. What I appreciate most is that he is always willing to share his market insights, even if you aren't currently buying or selling. If you want an agent who is genuinely in tune with the local market and respects your time, I highly recommend him." Vivienne Stern read more

I think that if you are buying or selling a home, Dan May is a great man to have working for you. We just recently sold my mom's house who passed away in April 2017, and he made me feel so at ease about everything and we actually got more than we were asking for. He gave us daily updates on the progress of the sale, and spoke to you not down to you and made it easy for us to understand the whole process of how selling your home went. Dan goes the extra mile to make his customers feel at ease and comfortable knowing they made the right decision to have Dan May represent them. Although very professional he has a great sense of humor which put me a ease. By choosing Dan to buy or sell your home, you will have a smart decision. read more

I've known Dan for over 30 years and can't rave highly enough about his personal service and industry expertise. Having grown up in the Castle Heights/Beverlywood area himself, he knows everyone in the neighborhood and knows the market inside out. When I was recently contemplating a re-fi, his back-of-the-envelope conservative appraisal estimate ended up being the exact figure that the appraiser later came back with. Dan is my 'go-to' guy for everything real-estate-related, and more! He's a friend and cares personally about all his clients. If you want integrity, market expertise and outstanding service, Dan's your man! read more

Dan has now become our Family Realtor having worked previously with my son and daughter in law and our daughter in law' s mother. We were very picky and choosy about the condo we wanted.

The whole process of buying was handled by him with the least amount of inconvenience to us. We would definitely go to him again for our real estate needs when necessary .Extremely knowledgeable, and highly reliable, and always very courteous, we would not hesitate to recommend Dan to anyone.

This is a review of my experience with Dan May Real Estate. I hired Dan to rent my property and from the initial contact to the end he was one of the most congenial and professional agents I have dealt with.

He also keep me informed at every step of the process and handled all the particulars of the transaction from start to finish. I would highly recommend him for any Real Estate transaction. read more

I used the services of Dan May to sell my house in Redondo Beach in 2013. Dan advised me to fix up the kitchen, paint the interior/exterior of the house, spruce up the landscaping and hire a staging company. Dan supplied me with several contractors in order to get a competitive bid. He not only got a good deal, but managed the entire process. This helped me a lot because I am not very handy nor I am sure what is needed and what is just extra. In the end, the house looked fantastic and sold within less than a month! His services are truly "turn-key"! Jon E. read more

Dan has become our "family realtor." Having previously worked with my daughter and son on separate house hunts, he came highly recommended from both of them. I started looking 2 years before I was ready to purchase, and Dan stuck with me patiently throughout the whole process. He never treated me like my questions were dumb (although I suspect they were). He was very low-key, yet very effective, in coaching me through the myriad details of a potentially stressful long-distance relocation. I enthusiastically recommend him. read more

We bought a house in Beverlywood from Dan May in March of this year. He couldn't have been more helpful throughout the whole process. Most sellers you never hear from after the sale has gone through. Dan was there helping make it work for both parties until the very end, even down to the very last detail. He also has a great roster of go-to people for everything from handyman to contracting to landscaping. We couldn't be happier. No one knows Beverlywood/Cheviot as well as he does. Thanks Dan!!! read more

Dan May is the realtor to go to. I definitely benefitted from his knowledge and expertise when he handled the sale of my Los Angeles home. His experience in the local area, general market conditions and overall real estate climate at the time I was ready to put my house on the market contributed greatly to the rapid sale. I could not have chosen better and would recommend Dan May to any in the market for sale or purchase. read more

Dan May did an exceptional job of assisting us with selling a condo in North Hollywood. The condo was handled as a trust sale so we had never lived there but he provided all the expertise to get it ready for the market and it sold very quickly for asking price. This was the second property that he helped us sell and I could not ask more from a real estate agent. Please don't hesitate to call Dan...you won't be sorry! read more

Dan May helped us get the inside deal on our Santa Monica condo as it went on the market. He helped us make an offer before the listing went public. The condo next door went on sale a few months later and it sold for I think $40,000+ (same condition as the one we bought). This was 10 years ago and he will be the person we go to if we ever decide to make another move. Great guy and very professional. read more
