Whether it was helping us explore buying a home or finding a rental, Dennis went above and beyond--always available for showings, sending us updated listings, and keeping us in the loop with landlords.

JohnHart Real Estate Company was the borker that sold my home in La Crescenta. The agent was good…read moreand plesant to work with but the Broker Harout Keuroghlian was not. He also owns One Key Escrow and the customer service was the worst I've experiened in years. Major delays, poor communication, last minute action itmes for me with critical information missing. This caused me to make bad choices that cost me major headachs and long delays. I was the manager between the real estate agent, finacne companies and the Excrow company, not the customer. The final straw that pushed me to write this, I asked Harout to please work with my finance company, the Bank that they used to issue my final check to get the funds release sonner than 7 to 10 days. Had I gotten the account information from One Key Escrow correctly I could have wired the funds and there would have been no delay. Harout was uncooperative and the bank refuesed to release the funds early. This delayed the purchase of our new home by two weeks and caused a lot of problems for my family, the Sellers Family and the real estate agent that was tying to manage all of this. AVOID JohnHart Reality and save your self a lot of frustration and time.

Unfortunately, due to the distance and location of my property, I never got to meet him in person. Everything was done online and so efficiently. My sale completed to my satisfaction within a year!!! Great job, JACK!! THANKS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM FOR YOUR PROPERTY NEEDS.

As a real estate broker myself, I have high expectations when I hire another brokerage. I chose…read more"The Art In Real Estate" to handle the leasing of my rental property, and they exceeded those expectations. From coordinating extensive remodeling to helping secure qualified tenants, the entire process was handled professionally and efficiently. What impressed me most was their honesty. There was no sales pitch, no overpromising--just straightforward communication, sound advice, and consistent follow-through. They under-promised and over-delivered every step of the way. They also did an excellent job vetting tenants, stayed on top of the details, and made what could have been a stressful process remarkably smooth. If you're looking for a brokerage with integrity, competence, and genuine people who do what they say they're going to do, I highly recommend Art in Real Estate. It was a pleasure working with them, and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Todd Bazik makes buying a home easy. Weekday or weekend, morning or night, he made himself…read moreavailable to us, and helped us get the home we wanted. I've dealt with lots of realtors in my time, and he is by far the easiest to work with. He was never late, never had excuses, and always kept a positive attitude...all the while approaching all situations realistically. This in turn never allowed us to get our hopes up, only to have them dashed at the end. He explained everything to us, and we never felt like any question was "too silly." All documents were sent to us immediately, and he always kept us in the loop, often times without us even asking him to. Todd's mentality seemed to be, "The more you know, the more you're prepared, and the easier the process will be." Todd is a friend first, and realtor second, and when you're dealing with the stresses of buying or selling a home...a friend is exactly what you need Todd to be.

Do you want a shady bully as your realtor? Well look no further. After pointing out that he put the…read morewrong rent on our lease ($1700 higher than listed), Todd became rude and aggressive. When I told him I wanted to talk to him on the phone and ask him some questions about some things on the lease, he told me that he had other people interested in the apartment and would be happy to move on to someone else. I was just trying to do my due diligence. We were approved and loved the unit! But Todd's rude bedside manner was such a turn off, we didn't trust him enough to do the deal. Renter beware. Had to block his cell after he was rude to my wife EDIT: As you can see below, we got a response. As you can see, he wrote, " On a Sunday while I was spending time with my family, the reviewer wanted me to interrupt my day for a phone call after I had already answered more than 25 questions by email." Talk about comically misleading. First of all, it wasn't 25 questions. Yes we had questions (getting answers seemed to be triggering for Todd) but we also had REVISIONS. Many. Secondly, you'll see he directly quoted me ("See you on Yelp." Uh, yeah, Todd. That's what Yelp is for.), so here's a directly quoted exchange: ALEX: Hey Todd. You around today to discuss the lease? Or should it wait til tomorrow. Sorry to bug on a Sunday TODD: Can discuss as long as it's text or email. ALEX: It can wait til tomorrow then. I'd rather it be a call. Thank you. TODD: We need to get this wrapped up if you guys are serious about the unit. In addition to the other top applicant I'm still getting none stop calls and requests to show. Landlord is happy with either but your credit is higher than the other. But if you guys aren't happy with the terms we can move on to them. Yo. What?! I did not "interrupt [his] day for a phone call." I LITERALLY told him twice it could wait until Monday. And the second time I did (trying to accommodate HIS schedules, not mine), he burst into a bullying tirade that made it clear he was not interested in hearing what I had to say. Here's another direct quote when we had questions about the extreme move-in costs for a $3500 apartment. "So instead of you writing a check to the landlord for 11,500 and then her having to cut me a check for my commission, we conveniently pass the hassle on to you as the tenant." COOL!!! Amazing that he would say in his response to me that he represents that landlord not the tenants. He represents the landlord but he makes sure the tenants are the ones that pay him. GREAT STUFF, TODD! I stand by my review. Todd was needlessly aggressive when we had innocent questions. I would rather continue my apartment search then sign a legally binding contract that this guy had anything to do with. Oh, and Todd's snippy comment about his job being to "weed out weak candidates," why did you offer it to us? We walked away, not you. We both have credit scores in the 800s. Yeah, we're terrible candidates. Finally, I have screengrabs of all these quotes.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Talin during the purchase of my…read morehome on Martha. She wasn't just my agent--she was my strategist, advocate, and steady hand throughout every twist and turn of the journey. Talin's attention to detail is unparalleled. She carefully dissected every disclosure, guided me through a very thorough inspection process, and made sure I understood the implications of each item. She caught things others would have missed and made sure the sellers addressed key issues before we moved forward. I felt completely protected and informed, every step of the way. Where she really blew me away, though, was in the negotiation phase. Talin knew exactly when to push, when to hold, and how to structure our offers to be both competitive and in my best interest. She fought for credits where they were due, negotiated strategically for every dollar, and ensured we didn't leave a single cent on the table. Her negotiation skills alone saved me thousands--and probably a few gray hairs too! Talin is equal parts brilliant, trustworthy, and fiercely committed to her clients. She made what could've been a stressful process not only smooth but actually enjoyable. If you're lucky enough to have her on your side, you're in the best possible hands. Thank you, Talin, for helping me find my home and fiercely advocating for me at every step. You are truly one of a kind
