Jerry was cheerful, easy to talk to, and offered a competitive rate right from the start without us…read morehaving to negotiate. He was also generous in connecting us with trusted vendors before we even signed a listing agreement, which gave us the flexibility to decide whether to sell or rent during a slower market. His marketing package was comprehensive, including a professional website, aerials, videos, 2D and 3D floor plans, bilingual marketing materials, and even included professional cleaning. Everything was coordinated in a timely manner to prepare for Coming Soon, Listing, and Open House weekend. Jerry also hired wonderful people. Mandy, his marketing assistant, was friendly and incredibly easy to work with. She had a great eye for showcasing our home and was speedy and attentive with all the detailed edits on the website, descriptions, photos, and flyers. Photographer Michael captured the house beautifully with a variety of angles and brilliant lighting, and Justina went above and beyond in cleaning the house, windows, and garage. In addition to his team, it's obvious that Jerry has solid working relationships with his recommended vendors. Everyone gave the impression that they would treat Jerry's clients well with proper attention, fair pricing, and diligent work to present our home well. Yumi created a thoughtful mood board that helped us visualize how the staging would look. She was generous in sharing design advice and honest about what would and wouldn't work, even for areas we planned to decorate ourselves. Mr. Zhuo rearranged his schedule to make sure everything was finished in time and done in a quality manner knowing Jerry's professional standards. He was very responsive, humble, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable. All the preparations paid off when multiple offers came in. Jerry walked us through multiple strategies, shared his recommendations, and was flexible in going with what we were most comfortable with. Near the finish line, Jerry took the initiative to come up with a solution that got buy-in from all parties and sealed the deal before the weekend. We greatly appreciate him for that! Jerry's support went beyond what's expected of a real estate agent. Throughout the process, he helped check on our house and even brought quality food to feed our neighborhood cat. We are truly grateful for that, especially knowing how busy he was. It speaks to Jerry's kind character, which makes him even more nice to work with.

I can't speak highly enough of Jerry. I met Jerry initially in 2015, and I was immediately…read moreimpressed by his professionalism, knowledge, and enthusiasm. Fast forward ten years later, I still had not met another realtor who I would have trusted more than Jerry to sell my condo. It is not easy to sell a condo in the current market with high interest rates and newly enacted laws, especially as an out-of-state seller, but Jerry was able to help me jump through the hoops and persevere and got the condo successfully sold. I highly recommend Jerry to anyone who plans to sell his/her home in LA.

Ivory is an exceptional real estate Agent! My friend referred her to me last year. She helped me…read moresold my parent's house in Arcadia. We received 5 offers in less than a week, and we sold the house "as is" at an above listing price! From the moment I met her, I knew that she was thorough and committed to a timely sale of my parent's house. She was very attentive to details. She has a good contact list of repairmen and clean-up people to help get the house ready. I lived two hours away from my parent's house, Ivory helped us arranged an estate sale, cleaned up and staged the house afterwards. I could not recognize the house after it was staged. When we negotiated the offers, she demonstrated an incredible ability to negotiate with all Buyers and drove the price way up above our asking price. We sold the property in "as is" condition, no repairs, no termi treatment, and escrow closed smoothly. Ivory kept us informed almost on a daily basis. She always replied my questions very quickly and she was a problem solver. I was very happy with the sale, Ivory made it so easy for me. There were lots of paperwork nowadays, Ivory took her time to explain them to me, and she showed me how to sign them electronically, which was so convenient since I was traveling when we negotiated the offers. With the e-signature, I was able to sign the document on my cell phone! I recently also listed another property with Ivory and again she delivered multiple offers in a week. We accepted a Cash offer above asking price and closed the deal in 2 weeks. What I really like Ivory is that she is a very trustworthy person, she knows the market well and she works very hard! I would recommend her to anyone unconditionally!!

We called on her many times, to help us with different things happening with my parent's home , since we did not know what to do. Ivory was always positive and glad to help us out. She made it easy for us to get the necessary things done. We relied on her help, her knowledge, and the different people we used to get the things done that needed to be done. We were so grateful for her personal touch in getting my parent's home sold. Would we recommend her? YES, anytime. Thanks Ivory for everything.

Imy is extremely knowledgeable about the market and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy. She responded to our texts or emails within minutes and her negotiation skills blew my mind. She advised us on what she thought would be a competitive list price, and while we were somewhat reluctant, she ended up being absolutely right. My husband is actually a realtor too, and he initially listed our condo for sale, but after an initial offer fell through, our home sat on the market for 3 more months with little to no activity. We became desperate to sell and knew we needed to hire someone who knew the market well! We reached out to Imy immediately, and not only did she sell our home for well above asking price but it was even higher than the previous offer that fell through. We also closed escrow in less than 30 days, with no repair requests! Imy is AMAZING!!!! She is a top producer at her firm and now we understand why. She kept us in the loop throughout the entire process, and walked us through every transaction and decision we had to make. Imy made us feel very comfortable and we fully trusted her to sell our home. The entire escrow process went as smooth as it could have gone, and I have no doubt that Imy and her team were working hard for us behind the scenes to make sure things were as effortless as possible. Imy is the BEST!! After this experience, I wouldn't consider working with any other realtor.

I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge Ash and share a professional experience that genuinely…read moreleft a strong impression on me. Ash and I have known each other in the local market for some time, and we've had professional interactions before. This review is not about completing a deal together, but about a real experience that allowed me, as a fellow agent, to see how he consistently puts his client's interests first even in moments his clients may never see. Before my overseas clients arrived, I was helping them look for additional resources and potential opportunities in a specific neighborhood. During that process, Ash mentioned that he had a property that had not yet fully gone active. Knowing my clients' criteria, he thoughtfully shared it as a possible option. When my overseas clients arrived, we went to see the property. At that stage, he was still early in his search and hadn't seen enough homes to make a decision. After spending more time viewing and comparing properties, he realized they still had strong interest in Ash's listing and wanted to see it again this time with the wife present, as she was only then available. By then, I knew the property was scheduled to review offers on December 26th. The request to see the home again fell on December 24th, a particularly tricky time when most people had already shifted into holiday mode, and in the middle of extremely heavy rain. I was also preparing to leave town and fully understood that Ash already had offers in hand and that his assistant was off for the holiday. Under those circumstances, he would have had every reason not to reply to me or to decline the showing. Instead, Ash responded promptly. He let me know when he could come and offered to arrange the private showing himself. Standing in the pouring rain, I watched Ash arrive, open the door, turn on the lights, and get the property ready. In that moment, I felt a deep sense of respect. As agents, we all know that clients often see only the final presentation, the online listing and polished photos etc. What they don't always see is the responsibility an agent carries behind the scenes, especially when the work is inconvenient and unseen. Through his actions, Ash showed that his priority is always his client's best interest, whether anyone is watching or not. As a fellow real estate professional, I appreciate his work ethic, responsiveness, and the professionalism he brings to every detail of his work. This experience left a lasting impression on me, and I wanted to take the time to acknowledge him publicly. If you're looking for an agent who takes his responsibilities seriously and consistently puts clients first, I would absolutely recommend Ash without hesitation.

Ash had his own crews for everything: Junk movers, house cleaners, carpet cleaners, painters, gardeners, electricians to add more lighting, and a staging person. We only had to remove the items we wanted to keep. EVERYTHING else was handled by Ash. Another thing we appreciated is that he or his assistant had the key to the lockbox so random agents could not enter the house without them. That was very important to our 91-year-old mother. Ash truly provided a turnkey operation that made it effortless for our family. Now for the icing on the cake: Ash sold the house for $500K over list price in less than a week with a 30 day escrow to an overqualified buyer. I cannot thank Ash enough and I give him a 10/10 rating for both service and affability. Albert Doornik, MD

She guided us through the process and counter offers. We sold our house 20 percent over Zillow value and over 12 percent over list price. She exceeded our expectations and we sold our house as is with no credits to buyer, no termite, no repairs and closed in 7 days. She even got us an extra 30 days to stay in the home for free.
