Client Reviews

Wendy, it was an absolute pleasure to work with you selling our home! Thank you for all of your hard work, the numerous open houses you held, the honest and open advice on what to list the house for. It was not an easy time to sell what with the market changing the week we listed, but you seemed to understand and forsee the buyers needs and wants. You were brilliant at communicating with us to know what to do and helping us close so quickly. As the Queen of England once said, “In times of doubt and anxiety the attitudes people show in their daily lives, in their homes, and in their work, are of supreme importance.” Thank you for your never ending patience, good humor, ambition, and professionalism. We will miss you as we return to England, but will always think of you and how much you helped us in both buying and selling Buckingham.

My husband and I purchased our first home, and had the most stellar experience working with Wendy. We genuinely didn’t know it was possible to love a realtor so much. Within a week of meeting Wendy, we worked together to put an offer on an incredible house. As is common in LA real estate, there was a very competitive bidding war, which with Wendy’s superb guidance, we won. Wendy was constantly collecting new information and doing analysis to make sure that our ask was just right (not too low, not too high). She miraculously scheduled 10 inspectors the week of Thanksgiving, negotiated off the closing price, and helped us close in 26 days — all during a global pandemic, nonetheless. Wendy is incredibly smart and honest, and was calm, responsive, and fun to work with through the entire process. To us, Wendy is superwoman.

—Buyers, Lisa & Joe

Wendy helped us win a competitive bidding war and got me into the house of my dreams. She was so easy to spend time with and made the home buying process as fun and chill as possible, while being extremely knowledgeable and professional. I'm a pretty indecisive person but she could feel me out and help me parse through the emotions that would come up when it was time to decide how aggressively to pursue a house. She always gave me her honest opinion but also let me know how to do the other option in a responsible way if that was what I wanted. Every step of the process was made easier by her level of experience and warm bedside manner. I recommend her to everyone!

—Buyers, High-profile
