About David
Highly regarded within the Westside coastal brokerage community of Los Angeles for his unique and creative luxury marketing, tireless work ethic, integrity, and solution-based approach, David has distinguished himself as a consummate dealmaker and consistently ranked among the top 1% of all real estate agents countrywide. He is also highly ranked as one of Los Angeles’ top real estate agents in “Real Trends America’s Best” and “The Wall Street Journal” for his yearly $100++ Million record-setting sales volume along with his $1+ Billion in total career sales volume. David is also a California licensed real estate broker (DRE 01435306), not a real estate salesperson, as most other agents are licensed.

For 21+ years, David has specialized in representing luxury residential sales and new construction spec development in Pacific Palisades, Brentwood, Santa Monica, and Malibu. Born and raised on the Westside of Los Angeles, his profound insight and understanding of L.A.’s prime coastal neighborhoods along with his network of clientele, friends, and co-workers, has distinguished him amongst his peers as one of the top local listing brokers. His passion is offering the highest level of representation, care and supporting his clients in every way possible, and overcoming challenges where other agents falter. The road to a meaningful, positive and successful outcome is rarely straight, and David prides himself on his calm solution-driven approach and his ability to adapt and provide creative, modern-day and productive solutions at a moment’s notice.

Whether he’s representing an architectural home in Santa Monica or advising on a new construction transitional farmhouse project in the Pacific Palisades, David provides his clients with invaluable market insight and unparalleled expertise that results in consistent positive and high yielding transactions. His unwavering commitment to providing the highest level of service and discretion has earned him the loyalty of a discerning roster of clients, that range from Westside families, business people, entrepreneurs, investors, real estate developers to A-list celebrities, and professional athletes.

Prior to real estate, David was a prominent and successful health and fitness industry entrepreneurs in the country. It all started in 1991 with being a highly sought-after celebrity personal/private trainer. He then co-founded Liquid Architects, the first company in Los Angeles that specialized in the design and implementation of high-end designer-done home gyms. David also co-founded Critical Mass, the acclaimed one-of-a-kind private studio/gym and personal training brand. Both Liquid Architects and Critical Mass were groundbreaking concepts and also instrumental in transforming L.A.’s fitness scene in the 1990s.

The quintessential California native with a penchant for adrenaline sports, David raced motorcycles and was a top-ranked SoCal Sport Kart racer. He’s also an avid MotoGP fan and now enjoys track days on his Husqvarna FS450 Supermoto. A lifelong Angeleno, David grew up in Beverly Hills, where he attended Beverly Hills High School. David and his wife Dawn currently reside in Malibu after living in Pacific Palisades for 15+ years. Their daughter Madison and her fiancé Justin reside in Pacific Palisades.

Client Testimonials:
★★★★★
David did a masterful job on our home sale.  Every step of the process was managed skillfully - the timing of the sale, presale improvements to make, distinctive staging, beautiful online marketing photos, and videos, negotiating multiple offers, establishing a collaborative rapport with the Buyer’s representative, and guiding us through the transaction process and documentation.  We truly believe David’s exceptional advice was the difference between our fast, full-priced, cash sale and a potentially drawn-out transaction with price reductions that could well have resulted from using a different Seller’s agent to represent us.  Bill Palmer & Lara Schrader | Pacific Palisades

★★★★★
"We worked with David on the sale of our condo and the purchase of our first house. He marketed our condo so beautifully, and he guided us through every step of escrow on both our purchase and sale. David is a true advocate, and we knew we were in good hands as we navigated the various nuances and challenges of real estate in L.A. David is a total pro and knows the ins and outs of real estate better than anyone. We know we got the best possible deal on our purchase and sale due to his expertise and negotiating skills. We wouldn't work with anyone else! We also feel we made a new friend in the process. Working with David was truly a great experience all around." - Niki & Kerry Blackman | Pacific Palisades

★★★★★
"David was the perfect listing partner for 4313 Ben Ave. Facing the challenges the pandemic has delivered head-on, he maximized the use of the technology tools TJH provided and brought in a solid offer quickly. He is well-organized and brings a reliable depth of market knowledge to the listing. We look forward to working with him in the future." - Taylor Carlson | Thomas James Homes

★★★★★
"David Kelmenson is a top-notch real estate broker. After I met David, he immediately took me (and my husband) under his wing in search for a perfect family home while I was pregnant with my second child. David honed in on the exact neighborhoods we were interested in and showed us a range of construction: old, new, renovated, and still under development. Thanks to David’s inside connections he found us our perfect home before it hit the market, and we were happily settled in before we officially expanded our family. Since buying our home, David has remained an important part of our lives; he checks in, visits, and helps put me in touch with anyone I need to help maintain my home. Should we ever move again (in the distant future!), we will definitely be calling David for the job!" Kira & Larry Sadaka | Brentwood

★★★★★
"Working with David has exceeded all of our expectations. Having numerous family members in the real estate business, we decided to work with David after interviewing him. We instantly sensed his skill as a listener and knew that this would translate into a greater understanding of our specific needs/desires. The patience and expertise shown by David were unparalleled. David's experience and skill as a negotiator were solely responsible for us achieving the result we intended. I would highly recommend them for their knowledge, patience, and genuine desire to achieve the best outcome. Our real estate experience was made all the more special by sharing it with him. Many thanks!" - Josh & Melanie Kaplan | Brentwood

★★★★★
"It has been a real pleasure having you as our Broker. We want to thank you for your professionalism and expertise in helping us. We felt very comfortable with your extensive knowledge of the local market and his ability to create a seamless outcome. We also want to thank you for always being so prompt in returning our calls and being diligent in seeing us through the entire process. Importantly, we feel confident that the chances for purchasing our new home would have been significantly diminished if not for your expert navigation in obtaining an accepted offer." - Jeff & Quynh Sebastian | Santa Monica

★★★★★
"My wife and I have bought and sold several homes with David. He has saved us thousands of dollars with his negotiation expertise and found the perfect properties for us. His combination of expert skills, professional supporting staff, and his brand name recognition in the local brokerage community has insured him that he has our business for life." - Chris & Kari Ursitti | Pacific Palisades

★★★★★
"David Kelmenson is an outstanding real estate broker & we recommend him wholeheartedly. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Westside real estate as well as broader trends in the market. He is a superb tactician who, like a chess player, got us absolutely the best outcome we could ever hope to achieve - in fact, a much better outcome than we thought possible. David never relents in his efforts to serve the needs of his clients, even when there is no direct payoff to him. But actions speak louder than words: As a result of David's hard work & outstanding service, we recommended him to friends who have since had David represent them. Both were superlative in their praise of David. Just as important as his professional credentials, though, is the fact that David is a wonderful human being - warm, smart & endowed with a sense of humor. Interacting with him is a true pleasure." - Romain Wacziarg & Magali Delmas | Brentwood

★★★★★
"Thank you very much for following up with us, even after the close of escrow. Your professional & efficient approach, handling, guidance, & follow-through during the last 3 months has impressed us over & over again. We have done several real estate transactions during the last 31 years in LA area, & never met an agent as effective & knowledgeable, & at the same time, pleasant to deal with, as you. Wish we had known you 20-30 years ago...! We were also glad to see that our escrow officer was trying so hard to perform as well as she could because she wanted to "match your standards". You will definitely be our #1 real estate source from now on! We already gave your info to a close friend. He was recently visiting us & loved our . " - Ross & Pam Hashemi | Malibu
