DANIEL R. Review for Member: DANIEL HERNANDEZ
ZillowVERIFIEDEugene was phenomenal to work with from beginning to end. He knows his stuff. He guided us through the entire sale process and never stopped being there for us at a moments notice. I never had to wonder whether or not Eugene was going to get back to us after texting or calling him; communication was on point. The rest of Eugenes team was outstanding. We loved the way our place was staged and how transparent the entire process was. You get a sense that the team is passionate about what they do. Overall would recommend Eugene without a doubt. I wish he could be my agent out here on the east coast.

Eugene did a great job selling my condo. I know they work with much bigger, more expensive properties, but they gave me the same time and attention as they would any of their other clients. He knew the ins and outs of every part of each process; was super easy to work with; and his recommendations were almost always spot on. His team at the Local, Mike and Dana, were also a pleasure to work with -- they helped make the unit look great with furnishings I already had, and were great at working within the constraints of what I wanted to spend on repairs/staging. A couple of HOA-related hiccups came along unexpectedly during escrow, but Eugene hung in there and helped manage the obstacles as they came. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for help selling in LA.

Eugene and the team at Local Real Estate were, once again, awesome to work with. Eugene worked with us at every step of the selling process and the outcome was beyond what we expected, receiving an over the asking price offer. We were continuously impressed with our designer Dana. She helped us take the house from fixer to fabulous! Her design ideas were spot on for the era of the house, which helped us get the perfect family into the home. From listing to closing, the entire team kept us informed of what was happening and what we needed to do. We will definitely use Eugene and the Local Team for our next transaction.
Doug8012 R. Review for Member: Doug8012
Eugene and his team are top notch - best of the best - very professional and very knowledgeable. Eugene is the ultimate "straight shooter" and works extremely hard to ensure a smooth, seamless transaction. Sellers love him as his experience and knowledge of the local markets is unmatched. Buyers love him because he is very on top of things and always has answers and information - generally before questions are even raised. He works hard with title, escrow, appraisers and home inspectors to ensure everything in a real estate transaction is handled properly. Any "hiccups" are dealt with immediately and effectively. I highly recommend Eugene for any real estate transaction - trust me, you will not be disappointed!

Eugene & his team did a great job facilitating the sale of my uncle and aunt's place in Los Angeles. We had to sell their condo after my uncle passed - and with me living in San Francisco, I was worried about how that was going to happen. Eugene made sure we knew what was going on with the renovations, helped us negotiate issues with the HOA, and made sure we knew all the steps in the process of going forward with the sale. The renovation team made the condo sparkle - and that drove up the price of the home BEYOND what we had hoped for. I am happy to recommend Eugene as your agent.

Eugene was an excellent partner and guide throughout our home selling process. From the beginning, he and his team were able to recommend repairs and improvements that netted us multiple offers well above our list price, immediately creating positive ROI. Next he navigated the offers to maximize the sale price and was able to make sure that we had multiple backups in hand (which we needed!). While this process wasn't smooth due to external factors, Eugene ensured that the process kept moving even with all the ups and downs. Highly recommend!

Eugene and the design team at The Local Real Estate Group were great to work with in the selling of our property. From the beginning, Carla, our main designer was involved in helping us pick the right colors, designs and layouts for the bathrooms and kitchen as well as the outside deck, landscaping and the staging. Eugene and Jenn were able to negotiate a great price for the property and made the closing of the sale smooth and easy. We highly recommend this team and will be using them again for the next property.
Eric R. Review for Member: Eric Goldman
Eugene and his team at The Local Group were awesome. They connected me with contractors and designers when needed to help complete my vision. We did a complete remodel and addition. We sold the property for 250k over asking. Eugene is very hands on and has great idea. He was always on time and enthusiastic about what I was working on. I couldn't be happier with him and his team.
J R. Review for Member: J V
Eugene @ The Local was my listing agent when I recently listed (and sold!) my home here on the east side of Los Angeles. As a first time seller, Eugene was a great partner and a strong advocate for my interests in the transaction. Everything was spot on at every step of the way - listing and pricing strategy, marketing, negotiating terms, and navigating escrow all the way to closing. Eugene is kind, super friendly, laid back, and approachable, and I can't imagine having listed with anyone else. Highly recommend Eugene and the whole team at The Local!
Barrydavis123 R. Review for Member: Barrydavis123
I have great things to say about Eugene, Kevin, Kurt, Compass, and The Local. The team was with us every step of the way as we prepared to buy a new home as well as sell our current home. Everyone was extremely communicative and responsive via text and email. We always felt that the team had our best interests in mind. They helped walk us through every step and detail along the way. All my questions and concerns were met with positive reinforcement and clear explanations. I highly recommend Eugene and his group to anyone hoping to buy or sell a home. Although the market seemed to be shifting, Eugene and his team were confident that we could achieve our goals. That positivity sincerely helped with the stresses of moving and buying a new home. I'm so happy we chose The Local!
