Eugene Ridenour and Melissa Shahin were the agents that represented my fiancA(C) and me for the purchase of our first home. Were a young couple thats lived in Los Angeles for the past six years and decided to move to the valley in advance of the birth of our baby girl. As everyone knows, this is a hot market in which the sellers have most of the negotiating power. Nonetheless, Eugene and Melissa worked hard to represent our interests and we ended up wining a bidding war at a sale price 3.5% less than ask. Whats more, they were able to secure seller credits during escrow valued at an 1.1% of the sale price. As if that wasnt enough, Eugene has remained in contact with us after the close of escrow to help us get settled into our new house. Hes sourced different contractors to take care of both minor and significant repairs, as well as cosmetic improvements. If youre looking for agents who are good at their jobs and genuinely care about their clients, youre in good hands with Eugene and Melissa.

If you are shopping for a realtor, literally stop searching! Melissa is your gal!Melissa sort of fell into our lap, as our original realtor moved and then referred us to her. I honestly wouldn't have wanted it any other way as Melissa was a gift to us! She helped us sell our condo for WAY over asking price and was with us every step of the way in our search for a single family home.From the moment we initially met, I felt so much peace and confidence about our future endeavors with her. Not only was she so kind, but she really took the time to listen to our wants and needs, and then make them come true! She has many connections and helpful people in her radius, too. Her communication was above anything we've experienced (and we've dealt with other realtors). We never felt like we were just another customer. She was there for everything; from the painters touching up our condo, to the final walk through of the home we purchased.I could go ON and ON about why I'm thankful for Melissa, but I'd say, you should just experience her for yourself. LA is beyond lucky to have her in the market.It is possible to sell OR buy with Melissa by your side; even in this current crazy market!

We had the best experience in buying and selling thanks to Melissa. She really helped guide us through selling our condo during the pandemic and while it was a tough situation to be in, her knowledge and professionalism made us feel very comfortable with our decisions. We also had to fix up our place and she had great recommendations for contractors. And when it came to buying, she was always available and patient with us. We ended up getting the townhouse we wanted in an extremely competitive market! Cannot recommend enough. Thank you Melissa!

Alyssa truly put us at ease during an incredibly stressful time in our life. We needed to sell our house quickly and she helped make it happen. Working with Alyssa and her team helped us make a necessary transition. We would absolutely trust her again and again.

We are so grateful to have met Eugene. He is simply the best and an absolute pleasure to work with! We would highly recommend to anyone wanting the best, stress-free experience in selling/buying a property. Terrified as we were, he navigated the whole process with us, answering all our questions, and providing clear knowledgable guidance allowing us to make the best decisions. Eugene worked his connection and provided us an opportunity to sell off-market. We got an offer in less than two weeks of our first meeting with Eugene! We were satisfied with the offer and it came with a very flexible condition, allowing us to make an offer on a home we loved! We loved that Eugene not only provided the best advice, but was always reasonable and respectful of our decisions and was always on our side. He just gets it. He always knew the right time to check in which made a world difference when going through this overwhelming process! Eugene is personable, reliable, thoughtful, and always had our back! Even after closing, we appreciated him checking in on us while settling into our new place. He really made the whole experience feeling great and successful. We cannot imagine wanting to work with anyone else! Thank you Eugene!-Suejin & Kyung

We have worked with Alyssa as our listing agent on two houses over a five year period. It is worth noting that the second house we bought was also an Alyssa listing and the most recent third house we bought was also an Alyssa listing! All of these experiences have been really positive. Alyssa knows the market, especially in Silver Lake, Echo Park and further East. Our houses both sold over asking. I always look at all the dreamy properties she has listed.Alyssa has a keen eye to styling and helped us use our own furniture to show the houses at their best when we having photographs taken.She gave us great advice as to what repairs and upgrades to make before we put the houses on the market.I cant say enough good things about Alyssa. She is very easy to deal with, makes an otherwise stressful process very laidback. She is great with people and other agents. We will use her again if we ever decide to sell our current house.

Alyssa and her team are the most knowledgable, well-connected, resourceful, creative and friendly real estate professionals in Los Angeles. They represented me on separate occasions as both as a buyer and a seller, and I couldnt be happier with the results. Highly recommended!

Alyssa Valentine (Courtney + Kurt Wisner Real Estate Team at Compass) was terrific. Attentive, knowledgeable, and considerate. Totally made our sale as smooth and pleasant as possible. We had never sold before, and of course it all happened just as Covid descended, making everything doubly-stressful. Alyssa was methodical and reassuring throughout, helping us sell for much higher than we expected. We recommend her whole-heartedly. -Jack Perez & Valerie Vigil

This is the second property Alyssa and her team helped list and sell with multiple offers. The first property was in Silver Lake and the second in Atwater Village--both were sold for over asking price. Alyssa's insight and efficiency helped us successfully prepare and navigate the sale of our secondary property during the COVID-19 pandemic. Whether a first-time or seasoned home seller, Alyssa's calm demeanor can allay all anxieties and her focus and resourcefulness will guarantee timely results.

I had the BEST experience with Karina Del Toro of C+K's team. She was recommended to me through my mortgage broker and I am so so so incredibly glad she was. I was a first time home buyer, completely clueless and needed extra guidance and help to make sure I was doing everything "right. " Karina was so informative, helpful, never shaming especially when I would ask my "rookie" questions. She was available to me via phone or text whenever I needed her and we had a LOT of fun on our outings to find the right place. She fought for me with the offers I made and we found my home, my happy place and she had EVERYTHING to do with it. I will be using her for any of my future real estate needs and will be referring her whenever I can. Thank you Karina!!!!!
