One Week. Multiple offers. Over Asking. Preparation, Pricing and Results. Nailed it. . We had an outstanding experience selling our home with Collin. He helped us price the house strategically, and as a result, we sold it after just one week on the market with multiple offers over asking.
One of the biggest strengths he brought to the process was preparation. He put us in contact with a professional stager and they both worked with us room by room to depersonalize and create a neutral buyer friendly look, while still keeping the best parts of our personal style and the final result looked fantastic. The photos that were taken and posted online made a stunning visual impact.
His guidance, attention to detail and understanding of what buyers are looking for made a huge difference. We felt confident and supported every step of the way and the results speak for themselves. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home.

Excellent Service from a professional and friendly agent! Collin was amazing to work with! We were relocating across the country using company provided relocation assistance and Collin helped to guide us through the process as first time home sellers. We met him in person only twice before we moved from LA to Boston. He navigated our home sale through several time zones and was extremely professional and thorough. He went above and beyond to help us with any issues that popped up and helped us navigate the somewhat turbulent LA market. We got the desired price for our home in only a few short months! We moved out mid October, the house was staged and on the market in late November, and we closed Jan 2 - amazing! Especially since there was something found during inspections that we didnāt know about. He helped line up professionals to fix the issue, worked with our neighbors since we were no longer local, and helped us with the insurance claim. We couldnāt have been happier. Thank you, Collin, for helping to make this somewhat stressful time in our life (cross country move with a toddler while pregnant!) easier to manage and navigate. For anyone looking for a professional agent with a friendly manner, knowledge of the west LA market, and superior marketing skills - look no further than Collin. You will be in great hands.

We had a difficult first go around trying to sell our house. We left the experience feeling defeated and hopeless. Our agent in Palm Springs recommended Collin, and given how great our working relationship was with him, we gladly accepted the recommendation. Collin came in, sat us down, and listened to everything we had been through. He then came back with a game plan to get our house in shape for a new sale, everything he recommended filled us with hope. He made us aware of options we had not been offered before. He was right there making sure repair people were on time and on task, acting as a liaison to keep us from worrying, and constantly checking in to see how we were feeling; really listening to what we had to say. Under Collin, we had more eyes on and traffic through this house that we had previously. Our optimism meter started going up and up. For all of his DEDICATED service, we sold the house. Our new life in Palm Springs can now begin. Collin is an extreme professional who knows the business, he knows customer service, and he knows how to problem solve. Those three things together make an agent worth every penny. Collin was an absolute dream come true.

Highly Recommend!! Market Knowledge and Experience:
Coming from out of state, Collin was able to guide us on the Los Angeles area and help find several options for us to buy. Collin has a wealth of experience and it helped us find the perfect home for our situation and budget. Collin even helped us with questions about selling our other home and was always available to help with whatever happened during the process. Due to his high level of attention to detail the entire process of buying a home was made much more simple.
Communication:
Collin is the best real estate agent I have ever had in terms of communication. Throughout the process of buying the home he would take time to make sure we knew everything we needed and helped us beyond what I would have ever expected.
Professionalism:
Collin has the highest level of professionalism, which is so important as you have to put your trust in someone for a big life decision. With Collin you can rest at ease as he holds himself to a high level and if I ever need to buy or sell again, I will definitely work with Collin again. And even more important he is a great person, which is important when buying or selling a home .

Collin was an absolute dream when it came to this process. Typically, I would only use in real estate agent for a property purchase however, in this instance, I used him for a rental property. This worked excellent because it opened up the opportunity to negotiate that I didnāt know was possible with rental units. Collin was extremely detail oriented, well organized, and punctual. We spoke consistently throughout the process in terms of phone calls whenever we could fit them in and or text messages. Everything Collin did was prompt and I greatly appreciate him. I would not be living in this beautiful home that I currently am living in without his assistance. Highly recommend Collin, because he will definitely explain everything to you that needs explaining, he will listen to all of your different options and articulate what he thinks is the best pathway for you.
