Emilia Arau

★★★★★
"Emilia Arau is the best real estate agent I have come across. My condo was sold in 6 days, above asking price! Emilia is dynamic, knowledgeable, efficient, able to manage property repairs and staging before listing (has a great team behind her for this), is an excellent communicator, good advisor, she basically calmly but efficiently walks you through the process, wastes no time, is totally present and pleasant and is always available. I would not have done this sale any other way. And the amazing part is, i never met Emilia in person and was 6000 miles away during the entire prep and escrow! It was yet all very smooth and punctuated by lots of little update and WhatsApp chats. She made it work for my far away situation. I am very thankful." - Kathleen L

Since the very first time that we met, she automatically captured exactly what I was looking for. She really listens to what it is that you like, dislike, preferences, budget, etc. She is great at getting back to you promptly, which is so important in these cases as properties get taken so quickly. Emilia also helped get into my first property as a home owner! This was a very exciting, yet, intimidating process as I had absolutely no experience in this, but Emilia guided me through every step of the way, and helped me get into a beautiful home at an amazing price, which she helped negotiate. Not only does she work closely with you, but she also works very hard behind the scene to get all paperwork, legal documents, etc. in perfect order for it to be a smooth process for her clients. She is an expert in her profession and I highly recommend her to anyone (renting, first-home owners, high-end clients, etc.) she is very experienced on all levels, and is more than willing to work with anyone.

Emilia explained to me very clearly every single step of the prices (at lest 5 times)!! She gave my space when I needed it and held my hand at crucial times.

It took me a few months to even understand what I wanted but after following her great guidance, I can happily say my story ended with an epic finale in my lovely and affordable Culver City home!! ." - Natasha P

Not only did she found the best listings matching my picky attitude, she also became like a therapist or mother, listening to me whine and complain, advising me on the right fit for my current situation and speak high of me to landlords who without her would probably not have listened to me and only care about the facts.

She's a one/two punch of integrity and negotiating skills. A non-stop, bundle of energy that's constantly on top of all aspects of the transactions, even those which traditionally may not fall under her purview.

"Emilia was an absolute asset in the search and final purchase of my first home! Being new to the home-buying process, Emilia guided me from start to finish on what to expect and how to stand out with competing offers. She was incredibly responsive throughout, and during the search would work with my availability to see homes. Emilia "fights" for you and isn't afraid to call out discrepancies in listings. She is the embodiment of why you get an agent to represent you. In a field of bland, and sometimes robotic, Emilia has character and stands out from the rest!/i>"
★★★★★
""From start to finish Emila was an absolute rock star! She came in with vision, and we received an offer in one week. Emila is very sharp and knowledgeable. Even after receiving an offer she did not let her foot off the gas pedal. Unfortunately our initial offer fell through, no fault to her. She was able get an another offer same day, and open escrow the following day. We also were closing on a home we had an offer on, and Emila was able to communicate with all parties and get it done. Highly recommended Emila 1000%!"

All the way through she was available (even when traveling) when I had questions or worries. I would not have trusted anyone who wasn't as familiar with this very particular market as she is.

You will never meet anyone more savvy, creative, and talented as Emilia. She knows the market, and how to market. She helps everyone at the table be their best—and makes dreams happen.
