We feel so lucky to have worked with Samantha as our both buying and selling agent. Thanks to her expertise, experience and dedication, we quickly sold our previous home and are now in the home of our dreams. The thought of simultaneously buying and selling can feel daunting, but she walked us through the whole process. I feel like I'd gained a friend on the "inside" who was working for me and truly looking out for my welfare. If you are in the market to buy or sell, I wholeheartedly recommend Samantha. read more

We first met Samantha when she showed us a house on the market back in the Fall of 2017. We liked her immediately. From that day forward, whenever we asked her to show us a house she instantly made it happen. Most importantly to us, she always followed up by obtaining and relaying the answers to every question we had on each property. In the spring of 2018, we thought we were finally ready to sell our beloved home and find a new home. She didn't just leave the search up to us. Everyday Samantha sent us listings of properties we might be interested in. She made herself immediately available to show us homes whenever we asked. She always accommodated our schedule. She never rushed us through a showing. And again...she followed through, obtaining all the information we needed on each property. When putting our house on the market, Samantha didn't make any excuses when we didn't like the first pictures taken. She brought in another photographer and got us the most gorgeous photos. She had our house on the market within a week. She and her always available and very knowledgeable assistant Sherri went through the contacts with us with a fine tooth comb. Samantha is exceedingly trustworthy. With kid gloves and endless patience, she and Sherri answered every question we had. In not the strongest sellers market, Samantha had us a full price offer within 3 weeks. Unfortunately, at that time we also had some medical concerns and it proved too much for us to handle both situations at the same time . With deep compassion, Samantha pulled us off the market and released us with kindness. So there was no doubt in our minds who we would call when we really were ready. In the late summer on 2020, Samantha agreed to put us back on the market at the highest possible asking price. She had us listed in less than a week. She refused to put a lockbox on our house and personally showed our home to everyone interested. At the same time, she took us down to the San Diego area every time we wanted to see a house we were interested in. When our house didn't sell immediately, Samantha remained focused on the uniqueness of the property and was determined to be patient and get us the highest price. In under two months she got us exactly what we wanted. She also helped with every difficult aspect of the even more unique property we made an offer on in SD. Samantha is not only well versed in everything real estate related, but she also has a background in mortgage loans and building construction. She has boundless energy. She never forgets anything. She gives you her undivided attention. Even when dealing with us, as very emotional sellers, and an extremely difficult selling agent in San Diego, she never got rattled. She personally troubled-shot every challenge. She often said to us; "I just want everyone to be happy." We knew that was her true motivation when we watched her personally go to great lengths to make sure the buyer of our home was also getting a house completely in order. Samantha didn't represent them and they didn't ask for any extras ... Samantha did everything she did for them out of the goodness of her heart. She loves people. She loves what she does. She's one in a million. We will forever be grateful to have found this wonderful lady who lovingly guided us through one of the most challenging transitions of our lives. No way could we have done it without her. Thank you Samantha. You are a diamond in the "rough" real estate industry!! read more

Samantha is a very seasoned professional realtor who has built a reputation in Westlake Village. She can show you a great experience. This is how houses should be sold. read more

I have bought and sold many properties over the passed 30 years and Samantha is by far the best agent I have worked with. She made the impossible happen, closing on both sides of my transaction (sale & purchase) within 2 days of each other. This was a complex situation given the fact that I was trying to close on a sale of my home prior to closing on my new purchase, in order to avoid costly closing costs on a bridge loan. I accepted an offer on my home just 2 weeks before the scheduled close of the new property and Samantha was able to get it closed on time so I did not need to obtain a bridge loan. She is very straight forward and knows her business inside & out. I would work with her again in a minute and highly recommend her for any real estate needs. She's the bomb! read more

I did not want to leave two stars for a realtor because I can imagine how much they rely on their reviews, therefore I'm leaving three. However, I do want to comment on my experience. My husband and I had our home listed in Southern California over the summer, and she was a realtor that brought us an offer. She was not the listing agent. The offer was above asking price and we had another offer already from the prior week that was barely just below our asking price. It was decided that we would go with Samantha's client because she was several thousand more and after looking into it, she seemed to have the stronger portfolio financially to handle the loan. Well, all seemed rosy until inspection day when Samantha and her assistant came out to our home and their home inspector that they work with on a regular basis showed up and started picking our house to shreds. I got a strange feeling when after two hours he was just getting started. Our listing broker stopped by after a while and I told him I thought something seemed off because we had purchased our home three years prior and it passed everything inspection -wise totally fine! After 3 1/2 hrs the guy was still finding every square inch of the place with something seemingly wrong or askew and was pointing stuff out to me as well, and I was starting to get some bad vibes about the whole thing. I discussed it with our broker and with my husband but since our broker only stayed a short time, they thought I may have been just overly nervous. I even voiced my concerns to her assistant & she told me "we pay him very well so yes he does an extremely thorough job." hmm. Well their inspector went on to bring a pool guy, a heating/air conditioning guy, a plumber and and so forth to FURTHER inspect certain areas of the house and basically it was a case of looking beyond the normal wear and tear and scrutinizing it AS IF this 1975 house was just-built, new construction. I mean, c'mon. Later, my anxieties turned out to be valid. After having one after another pro come in and fine-tooth comb our 40 yr. old house, the buyer decides to ask us for over $32K dollars in credit. On a house that passed inspection three yrs. prior w/ 3K worth of repairs no problem?? what? There was a valid credit for termite work and treatment and also for a couple of other things, all amounting to about 3-4K. So we countered and of course, she cancelled Escrow. I went back to a conversation I had with the agent Samantha the day of that inspection and remembered she had told me that her buyer (the one that cancelled escrow) had purchased other properties with her over the last few years so I remembered I wondered why a few properties were bought in such a short period of time? Well it isn't illegal to buy and sell and make a profit but what is improper is offering enough over asking price to clear the way for you to have your offer accepted, only to turn around and have your highly expensive Inspector come out and rip the sellers home apart to justify asking for thousands upon thousands of credit and put the sellers in a bad predicament (esp. when the need to move to the relocation area needs to happen quickly)! Then guess what? The few thousand over asking becomes tens of thousands in loss for the seller after the over zealous inspection and credit requests are paid! I can imagine some people in desperation have caved to this buyer's jacked up credit demands, We were fortunate to go back to our initial offer of just-below asking price and all went perfectly as expected but without them it would've been starting from square one. When this happened I was rmore than a little upset. I promised myself I would let the dust settle (and my anger) and try to gain perspective on it and not go after someone's character seeing as I'm sure she is a hard working lady. However, this client that she has done deals with in the past that tried to purchase our home and took us for some naive' ignoramuses is not playing fair and square in her real estate dealings and maybe other homeowners need to be aware that these kinds of trumped up inspections happen. I'm sure Samantha has had many great buyers as clients. I don't think this woman was one of them, and I think she would do well to distance herself from this client. It was not "on the level" no matter which way you look at it. I have many friends, neighbor's and some are in real estate and they have all told me this client of hers straight-up tried to scam us. Thank god for back-up offers is all I can say! read more

If I could give Samantha 10 stars i would. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of real estate, she is a pleasure to be around and work with. She is quick, smart, intelligent and fun. I was "working" with another real estate agent and when i met her at an open house, i just followed my gut. She is THE best i have ever met. She will get you what you want. She is the soul of a lion. We are beyond happy and truly enjoying our home. read more

Samantha was recommended to me by a friend and I'm so thankful for her help. This woman makes things happen! I didn't think it was possible with our budget to purchase a townhouse in Agoura, but we did and we're so happy and know that it happened because Samantha was our agent. Samantha acts fast when new property pops up and she responds to text messages quicker than my 16 year old cousin (who is always on her phone). She has developed relationships over the years with other realtors and has great communication with them, which helps when you're making an offer on a property that's in a popular area of LA/Ventura County. Sh loves what she does, which shows because she'll be there for you every step of the way. From looking at different homes to handing your keys. Samantha cares about her clients happiness and will have your back! Thank you, Samantha!! I have wanted to own a home for a long time and I'm in my favorite town :) Thank you for everything!! read more

We worked with Samantha to purchase our home in Camarillo. She was very patient in answering all the various questions we had in purchasing our home. The process was very smooth and Samantha and her team were available via phone or email for any concerns that came up during the negotiating and financing. She had developed relationships with lenders and home inspectors who will ensure you get the best deal on your home. Thank you for everything, Samantha and Sherry for getting the home we always dreamed out! read more

Samantha helped us purchase our home in Topanga. She's incredibly responsive, helpful and "on top of it" 24/7 which we really appreciated. We feel she went that extra mile for us. Thank you, Samantha! read more

My son and his wife were purchasing their first home and I really needed an aggressive and creative realtor to help them find a home. Samantha was the first realtor we called and in just a short conversation we were sold. Extremely personable and very sincere. She truly listened to what my son really was hoping for in a home. She made sure she was aware of every detail of the Real Estate side as well as for the loan that was in process. She pretty much made sure every step got completed. Samantha had an amazing assistant, Sherry, that made all the paper work seem simple and yet thorough. Professional with excellent customer service is very hard to find and Samantha succeeded in both. We will never need to find another realtor for any of our future purchases. We are keeping this one!! read more

We are very active professional real estate investors who have now been involved in over 100 transactions with Samantha, and have chosen her as our exclusive agent to represent us in all of our dealings. Samantha's work ethic, honesty, knowledge of the market including financing, and negotiation skills have created huge value for us.....we wouldn't work with anyone else, confidently refer her to others, and are thankful to have her working with us! read more

Samantha was referred to us by a colleague and we couldn't have made a better choice! From day 1 she was like a bullet train full speed ahead. We went from thinking about buying a house, and in less than 2 months we were home owners! She made everything fall into place, exactly the kind of realtor I wanted to work with! She worked for and with us every step of the way! We needed someone who knew the market, knew the process and could walk us through every single detail , since we both have pressing jobs and travel schedules, I really needed someone to take care of all the details , and she did just that! She is a Great Educator , is a wealth of knowledge from every aspect of not only buying a house, but also very in tune with home fix it projects, renovations and home inspection items. She has an eye for detail and didn't settle for anything less than what we were hoping for. She is so easy to work with and has a great team of people that make the process, quick , efficient and pain free. We can't thank and recommend her enough. 2 months ago we didn't think we'd be able to buy for years to come , but with Samantha, she made our dreams a very quick reality! read more
