"Ninkey has helped us with several real estate purchases in the past, so when it was time to find a new home for our family, we didn't hesitate to reach out to her again.

"As the trustee of my parent’s estate, selecting the right real estate agent to handle the task of selling their house of over 50 years in Little Holmby/Westwood was essential. I chose Ninkey Dalton because I knew her to be a proven professional with exemplary people, design and negotiating skills. Each one came into play before and throughout the listing period. Ninkey knew what to do and when to do it. Her contacts within the contracting community and neighborhood were essential to getting the house up and ready for the market in a fast and efficient time period. It wasn’t an easy task to get the house ready for sale. From coordinating the disbursement of over 50 years of personal items, which included art to auction houses, charitable organizations to selecting new paint colours, new carpeting, running cleaning crews both interior and exterior; this was a massive undertaking and she tackled it with terrific organizational skills and rigorous execution. Ninkey was in constant contact with me and was always offering options for all decisions. She did an outstanding job assisting in preparing the house and obtaining the best offer for us. I highly recommend and look forward to working with Ninkey. - Richard K."

"Ninkey Dalton was the SoCal real estate expert my family and I never knew we needed. I have to say it was nice to partner with someone who works as hard as Ninkey does. She knows her business well and is adept at offering sound advice to maneuver all of the many steps in completing the buying and selling transaction. At every turn, she did not go the extra mile, she went the extra 5 miles! She sold our home for 3x’s the purchase price and seamlessly switched gears to aid in purchasing our new home. She is dependable and her work ethic is above reproach. I could go on, but I figure you get the idea. My family and I had a wonderful, experience working with Ninkey. She made a complicated experience manageable and fun. - Lorna & Tunde"

"Working with Ninkey was an absolute pleasure and relief to have someone with her caliber of expertise, can do attitude and on top of her game part of the transaction! I’ve been involved with a large business deals over the last 30 years and gained the experience early on who’s a fake and who really knows what they are doing-let me assure you, Ninkey knows what she’s doing and has her clients best interest at heart. As I’ve shared with Ninkey and will share here, if we are ever back in the U.S. and need a real estate expert, we will certainly call on Ninkey. What I have not mentioned yet, Ninkey was NOT my agent, but the buyers. I was so impressed as the seller on her performance that I’m here writing a review for her. You will not find a review from me on my agent as the comparison is just not even in the ballpark. If you want the best and expect the best in a real estate agent, CALL NINKEY! - David P."

" As a first-time homebuyer, Ninkey was fantastic to work with and was very instrumental in making sure our closing happened in a timely fashion. She very clearly explained everything to us and provided calendars and timelines that laid out what needed to be done and when. She was very responsive and on top of everything from inspections to title reports. She was tremendously helpful in the negotiations and helped us find a middle ground with the sellers that worked for everyone. If you’re looking for someone to really assist you through the home-buying process and take a lot of the stress away, I can’t recommend Ninkey enough. - Eli and Ben H."

"From our initial search through closing and beyond, Ninkey has been there to guide us every step of the way. Her warm demeanor, upbeat attitude and excellent communication skills made what could be a very stressful process, as easy as possible. We never felt pressured or out of the loop, and always benefitted from her expertise and guidance. Ninkey’s existing relationships with other brokers and ability to connect with anyone was also a huge advantage for us. We highly recommend Ninkey to anyone who gets the chance to work with her. - Annie & Randy P."

★★★★★
"Ninkey and I had worked together about five years ago when I bought a house and then quickly sold a townhouse. Our partnership was then brought together again when Ninkey helped immeasurably as we located a new house, and then quickly sold my previous house. Ninkey again represented me in both transactions and helped steer the way through multiple inspections only to be followed by multiple negotiations as we juggled several offers on the house I was selling. My purchased house was completed below asking price, while the house I sold was well over asking price, and through it all Ninkey was knowledgeable and uniquely qualified to make both transactions conclude successfully. I look forward to working with Ninkey again on the next transaction as buyer and seller. - Greg F."

"Ninkey Dalton is not only a great real estate agent, but is a great friend. When our family needed a Malibu rental, Ninkey was able to find a beautiful place in the Colony at the very last minute for us. She organized every detail as we were living abroad in Italy. After our time in Europe was finished our family decided to move to California and once again, Ninkey was there for us. She and I managed to organize several houses for me to see while in Los Angeles for only one week. We did it. Literally as I was checking in at LAX, Ninkey rushed over to the airport for me to sign the papers. I write this testimonial today sitting in my beautiful office in my beautiful house that I love more and more each day. Ninkey handled everything. We could not have done it without her. I cannot imagine ever leaving this home but if I do, I know Ninkey will be there for me and my family. - Anjela G."

"I have done a few real estate transactions through Ninkey Dalton in LA for the past 3 years. I have also recommended her as an agent to a number of friends and they have also completed their transactions successfully. Ninkey always brings a lot of confidence into her clients by her professional and detailed approach to all matters. She can be reached 24/7 if the client has any concerns which is a very rare thing. She knows the city very well and not only the location of the available properties but also knows all information about the neighborhood like schools, medical centers, grocery stores etc. That is so helpful for people who are new to LA and prepare to relocate from other cities. I highly recommend Ninkey Dalton as a real estate agent! - Alexander N."
