We were very lucky to have Sabine as our realtor…read more As a first time home buyer, we had no idea how to choose our home and various things to consider when buying. Sabine was very patient in explaining and educating us, always sharing useful insights about every house we considered. For a fixer house we were interested in, she even brought a contractor to help us figure out how much we would need to spend. Finally when we found a house we loved, Sabine helped us secure it. She told us various strategies to make our offer more appealing, and we got the house despite it having 7 offers. During escrow she handled all the inspections and other paperwork. We don't live in LA and we really appreciated her handling the entire process smoothly. Even after escrow she helped us with various things before we move into the house. Overall I would definitely recommend her to anyone. She is very easy to work with.

Eric and Courtney were not only incredibly knowledgeable about the Burbank market, but they were also spot-on with their advice and guidance every step of the way. They made the entire process feel easy, were always flexible and available, and consistently got us answers quickly. They even talked us off the ledge a few times when things felt overwhelming.

And he was right! Once we were in escrow, Eric checked in with us every single day - answering questions, giving updates, and making sure we felt confident and cared for throughout the entire process. He made something that could've felt overwhelming into a truly enjoyable experience! He also connected us with an amazing team (from our lender to the physical and sewer inspectors) each one just as thorough and trustworthy as he is.

Kate came highly recommended from a friend of ours and we are very happy we took that advice. We…read moreknew this was the right decision after our first meeting where she made us feel welcome during the start of our first home buying experience. Kate spent extra time talking things through and could not have been more accommodating. We used Kate's mobile app during the home search and would routinely mark homes as Favorites, plus add Notes with questions. Kate and her amazing assistant Ashley would respond very quickly, providing comps and asking if we would like to be accompanied on an open house. When it was time to put in an offer on a home, Kate and her team went into overdrive. Kate was all over the process with her quick and informative responses. She orchestrated the entire process seamlessly, working closely with us, the loan officer, seller agent and other third parties. From scheduling all of our inspections, to negotiating with the seller, and finally to picking up our keys! We never felt pressured but always felt supported throughout the entire process. Now we are living happily in our new home and could not have done it without Kate and Ashley. Thank you!

In addition to being wonderful people, Assaf and Jeff are both great advisors during the complicated process of making bids, countering, doing inspections and closing out. They do most of their business electronically, which expedites the process nicely. They have my highest recommendation.

Debbie has become our forever realtor, we won't work with anyone else. Her deep knowledge of real…read moreestate is unmatched, & her strong grasp at the emotional component of selling a home is exceptional. These traits were evident upon first meeting her, we knew right away we could trust her. In 2024 she successfully sold our home of 14+ years, it couldn't have been easier or more positive. Recently she sold my late mother's home. The home was very old & in bad shape, mom lived there 46 years & had dementia. When I hired Debbie, I'd just gone through 3 years of caregiving, mom's death, then 5 months cleaning out the house: I was exhausted. The home was attracting very aggressive buyers who played games, so to have someone like Debbie come in to shield & guide me was a lifesaver. Debbie was able to get a very good price and a relatively painless escrow. She made the experience MUCH better than it would have been with any other realtor. I'll always be grateful! Debbie has the perfect mix of strong confidence & empathetic kindness. On one hand, she's your advocate & protector, pushing back on unrealistic buyer demands & low-ball offers. On the other hand she's your wise friend, patiently talking you through options & helping with decision-making in unfamiliar territory. Debbie doesn't phone it in by any means, she's always "on it" throughout the process. You won't find a better realtor, I promise you!
