Real Estate near Manhattan Beach

“Kristen was an amazing help through the whole process. I won't work with anyone different ever again!“

“A recent unpleasant interaction when my current agent in Utah presented an offer (with 40% down) to seller's agent can be most charitably be described as unprofessional reminded me of 3 things:

* Ray's professionalism is unmatched.
* Ray's knowledge and skill are unmatched.
* How remiss I have been in not getting this review out around the time of my last sale (closed last September).

I have concluded 8 real estate transactions in California in the last 5 years:
* 3 with Ray Millman in LA County
* 2 with another realtor in Lassen County
* 3 with another realtor in Shasta County

The last transaction proved to be difficult as the LA market rapidly weakened. Had I put my house on the market 3 months earlier, it would have sold very quickly. Ray was very proactive at reaching out and persuading me to quickly re-price the home as to not have a stale listing. In a market that proved more and more difficult, Ray got it sold, freeing up capital that I can use to purchase a home in SLC, Utah.

Ray even vetted realtors in Utah for me and I am exceptionally pleased with my current representation.

Ray (and the Millman team) are simply the best. Don't bother with the rest.“

“I’m an Ohio realtor, and as the Executor of my late aunt’s estate, I needed to sell her primary residence and a rental property in Los Angeles. I sought a seasoned realtor who could handle everything given the fact that I was three thousand miles away. Mr. Jason Lowery and his team fit the bill perfectly. After completing his suggested updates to the townhome, he had it listed and sold in short order. Of note, there were other townhomes in the gated community that had been on the market for quite some time, but we closed within 45 days of listing. I might also add that the professionals (contractors, stagers, etc.) in Mr. Lowery’s network were top notch and reasonably priced, in my opinion. Last, but certainly not least, the communication and timely updates from Mr. Lowery’s assistant, Lori, were greatly appreciated; She is efficient, easy to work with and a very kind person. Capable, professional, knowledgeable and savvy; I will hire Jason Lowery and his team again.“

“Celina is absolutely wonderful. She was patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain every step while finding the best possible options for me.

What truly stood out was how much she genuinely cared. I felt supported every step of the way. Her combination of expertise, empathy, and kindness made the entire process feel manageable and even empowering.

Top-tier service from start to finish. I’m incredibly grateful and wholeheartedly recommend Celina without reservation!“

“Johan was amazing his experience truly showed throughout the entire purchase. One thing you can expect when working with Johan is that he will help you get the home you truly want. He consistently goes above and beyond to get things done, and my fiancé and I are incredibly thankful for everything he did to help us purchase our first home.“

“Omeed, Much appreciated. After shopping around, Omeed came through with the cheapest interest rate and had approval for 1.6 million within 2 weeks. I would highly recommend working with Omeed!“

“Working with Karen Anderson and her amazing Prestige Team was truly the BEST experience ever! When we purchased our very first home, we worked with Jonathan, and he made the whole process feel so easy and smooth. He patiently answered all our first-time-buyer questions and walked us through every step.

Fast forward a few years, and it was time to sell our home - we worked with Leigh and she was amazing! She gave us super helpful tips on small fixes and improvements to make our place stand out. It definitely paid off! We felt so supported the entire time and honestly, the process was way less stressful than we had expected.

Karen and her team are seriously the dream team - knowledgeable, caring, and so experienced. We couldn’t be more grateful for all they did for us. Definitely cannot recommend The Prestige Team enough! You’ll be in great hands.“

“I had the pleasure of working with Wendy Rich-Soto and her team on the sale of a rental property that had been left in very poor condition and required extensive repairs and remodeling before being ready to place on the market. Wendy and her team had all the contacts I needed to get my rental market-ready, everything from debris removal, landscaping, plumbing, electrical, construction, painting, staging, every need was met. Wendy also took the lead on the design elements of the project-she chose the tile, paint, flooring, etc. and brought a 70+ year old house into the modern era. My family and I were stunned at the beauty of the house once the work was completed. Wendy and her team quickly held an open house and we received an offer within four days! The offer was $31,000 over asking price! We could not have been happier! Our entire experience with Wendy Rich-Soto and her team was very positive and we highly recommend them. They turned what was a nightmare into pure bliss. Thank you Wendy and team!“

“Wonderful Experience Buying Our First Home with Sara Demsky

As first-time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions and nerves going into the process, but Sara Demsky made everything feel manageable from day one. She was patient, knowledgeable, realistic, fantastically honest and authentic and always willing to explain things very clearly every step of the way — no matter how small the detail.

Sara took the time to understand what we were really looking for and helped us explore neighborhoods and options that fit both our budget and our lifestyle. Her communication was truly excellent — she was responsive, transparent, and proactive throughout the entire process and always available, even on weekends and after hours.

When it came time to make an offer and close, Sara’s experience and calm confidence made all the difference. She guided us through every step with care and attention, and we always felt she had our best interests in mind. Sara was methodical, level, truthful and immensely supportive in guiding us to all resources needed for inspections to insurance. It was a 1000% easier than we had anticipated.

Thanks to Sara, we landed in our dream home and felt supported the whole way through. We’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, professional, and trustworthy real estate agent. Excellent experience, 10 out of 10. :)“

She was instrumental in guiding us through the complexities of our purchase in Rancho Palos Verdes, skillfully negotiating on our behalf while expertly navigating every step of the transaction. From offering timely and invaluable advice on financing to meticulously overseeing the home inspection process, Larissa's guidance was indispensable. What sets her apart even further is her genuine kindness and unwavering support throughout the entire journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Larissa to anyone seeking a top-tier real estate professional. She is an absolute gem in her field.“

“I can't say enough good things about the Megowan Realty Group. Kevin and Maureen Megowan provided a truly seamless experience for both buying and selling. On the buy side, Kevin’s financial savvy helped us beat out 10 other offers for our dream home, while Maureen’s deep market knowledge in the South Bay kept everything on track. On the sell side, Kevin sold our condo and was incredibly strategic, making buyers feel right at home to get us a great price. They are hands down the best real estate agents—proactive, communicative, and a joy to work with!“

“It was an absolute pleasure working with John. He always made time for us making us feel like we and our search for our home were a priority to him at all times. On countless occasions, he would spend the time to make sure we understood the process, that he understood our desires, and that we would have the knowledge, insight, time and space needed to effectively and confidently search for our first home. There was never any pressure and he would always go above and beyond. It was clear that he was in the real estate business as a passion, that he truly loved helping people navigate the stressful and rewarding landscape of buying a home. Additionally, John clearly came from a place of extensive experience in mortgage lending and real estate. I highly recommend John to all friends, family, and acquaintances. You won’t regret it - give him a call!“
