He helped me buy my first house, and he did multiple walk-throughs with me to ensure I was making the right decision. John is so smart, detail oriented and professional, responsive, honest.  And he is very proactive, which is super hard to find these days. He will make sure the home-buying process is stress-free."

"John helped me sell my home in Hollywood. Overall, it was a fantastic experience collaborating with him. From our first appointment, he meticulously mapped out the plan and explained every step, ensuring that nothing was surprising or unexpected. Additionally, he guided me in resolving some title issues with his title representative before listing the home, ensuring a smooth escrow process. In addition to John's exceptional service, the escrow and title team he works with was also incredibly helpful. His tireless efforts in hosting open houses, following up, and catering to the buyers' needs were truly impressive. With his dedication, he earned my highest recommendation, and I highly recommend him!"

"Whatever I write will fall of capturing the professionalism and kindness John has demonstrated. He is one of the best agents I have ever known. John began searching for an apartment for me in February. After viewing a few places, he quickly understood exactly what I was looking for and made the most thoughtful selections for me. He was incredibly honest and ensured I didn't settle for anything less than perfect. At one point, I considered an apartment that wasn't great because I was tired and ready to be done with the search, but John insisted that I hold out for my dream place. He promised to do everything in his power to find it, and he delivered on that promise. John found an apartment for me that exceeded my dreams. He worked tirelessly to convince the seller to accept my offer in a highly competitive market. He visited the property multiple times and brought in the best inspector to ensure everything was perfect. One of John's best qualities as an agent is his genuine commitment to his clients' happiness. He doesn't just want to close a deal; he wants to ensure his clients are 100% satisfied with their new home. John made the entire process incredibly easy and smooth. He was as excited as I was when we finally found the perfect place. John is, and will always be, my go-to person for real estate. He is absolutely the best! I am incredibly lucky to have met him and to have found my home with his help."

About John
a man in a suit sitting on a rock

From small acorns large oak trees grow. This is how I see my step into the prestigious world of real estate in Los Angeles. I’m an individual who embodies the entrepreneurial spirit in a city which encourages anyone with a dream to think big, but small and nimble enough to move quickly; imagine unseen possibilities and push beyond barriers. 

My motivation to do the best possible for my clients is my passion. I want to be the person who helps you buy or sell your property and hold your hand every step of the way. Because with me, it’s personal. It’s all about offering a ‘best in class’ service and to be available at all times to suit you. 

I firmly believe it’s what’s on the inside that counts; to have the empathy to recognize and act upon the needs of clients in a way one would expect for oneself. 

Each client is unique, and so their needs. Our design team will help you prepare your property for market in the best appealing way. I will work with you to determine the most effective marketing strategy and utilize the massive network we have to market your property to the most relevant audience in order to get your house sold to the right buyer quickly. 

I know how exciting it is to buy your dream home. However, it can be stressful at the same time. I am here to handle the stressful part for you to enjoy owning your home. 

I come from a family that believes home is very important. Home is the base of a happy life. The place you return to at the end of a busy day, to unwind and relax. That is why I want to be there to help you create your own vision of home. A place to entertain, build memories and leave legacies for others to own and fall in love with. 

Just remember home is not a place, it’s a feeling. And with that, I am committed to finding the perfect nest for you to feel at home in each and every day. 

Let’s connect and let me make your own dreams come true. 

Looking forward to connecting and seeing how I can help.
