"Of course Brad Holmes was knowledgeable and informed about all aspects of the local real estate market. Of course he patiently explained and re-explained the regulations surrounding real estate procedures and practices. And of course he was meticulous in staying on top of all details. But what I most appreciated about working with Brad was his calm, unflappable personality. That calmness continued even when the process had to be put on hold for a month while I underwent emergency hospitalization and rehabilitation. As a new widow, this was the first house I was selling on my own, so I was understandably anxious about not making mistakes. Brad made sure I didn't, and everything went exceedingly well. I would recommend him to anyone who hopes for a similar house-selling experience. " - Patricia N.

"We were recommended to Brad by our friends and we'd love to pass along the rec to the public: Brad is the presence you need as you navigate the incredibly stressful L.A. market and was amazing from start to finish of our house purchase. Brad listened to what our priorities were and gave us great guidance during our search. Brad did whatever we asked of him during our search, but we never felt pressured to see new homes, put down offers, or stretch our budget. Brad made us feel supported and informed: he never forced his opinion on us either. When we had an offer accepted and the seller's agent turned out to be a horror, Brad stood strong for what we needed: he got the agent to recoup us a huge amount and pay all closing cots when we thought the deal might be off. We cannot recommend Brad enough: he listens, he supports, and he delivers. We couldn't have asked for more as first-time home buyers." - Avimaan S.

"Finding Brad was the single best thing that happened to our search for a home. We were toying with the idea of moving from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Once we met Brad, that decision became so much easier. We knew we'd be able to find the right home, in the right neighborhood, and he'd guide us through the process like the pro that he is. After two near-misses, Brad helped us find the perfect home off market. We ended up with a complicated transaction, but Brad held our hands through the process and was the calming force in our sometimes emotional reactions. I'm not sure I've ever met someone with such patience and practical advice -- two key qualities in an agent (whether you're buying or selling). We plan to recommend (even force) Brad on our friends and colleagues as soon as they even mention that they might be in the market." - Rose E.

"Brad is FANTASTIC! He was patient as we took our home to market, had spot on advise as to what we needed to do to maximize our asking price, and ultimately sold our house with multiple bids in 2 weeks for $175,000 over asking! He was diligent in bringing our house to market and held 5 well-attended open houses in that 5 weeks - working hard to get us the best deal. Brad followed this amazing effort helping us smoothly purchase two other properties within a month of this sale. Again he worked hard for us to negotiate deals that we were thrilled with all the way around. We can't recommend Brad highly enough!" - Patrick C.
