Buy the right house
on the right block.
Whether it’s your first home, more room for a growing family or a fresh start somewhere new — I scout with you, check the parcel and negotiate hard on your behalf.
From first tour
to keys.
Clear steps, no pressure, and a straight answer when a house isn’t right.
Scout the right places
We start with your life — commute, schools, space, budget, what’s next — then scout neighborhoods and homes, on and off market.
Check the parcel
Before an offer: zoning, lot size, permits, hillside rules, ADU potential and red flags others miss.
Negotiate strategically
Pocket-level comps, an offer built for this house and seller, and the judgment to push back on price, repairs or terms when the facts support it.
Advocate to close
Inspections, appraisal, loan and escrow — I stay hands-on and keep your interests first until the keys are yours.
Most moves are really two transactions.
If you’re upsizing, downsizing or changing communities, the sale and the purchase have to fit together — timing, contingencies, financing, maybe a rent-back. I plan both sides with you so you don’t move twice or carry two mortgages longer than necessary.
What would it cost per month?
Estimate only: principal & interest on a 30-year fixed loan, plus property tax and insurance. Excludes HOA, mortgage insurance and Mello-Roos. LA County tax rates are roughly 1.1–1.3%+ depending on the parcel. Talk to a lender for real numbers.
