    Working with Eugene on the recent sale of my home was a fantastic experience from beginning to end. He brought expertise and insight into the whole process and had a wonderful way of dealing with all the very many people involved in a sale from contractors preparing the home to getting qualified offers in and negotiating the sale. I am so grateful for everything he did to make this sale happen, and to make it a good experience. Without reservation, recommend working with Eugene.

    Eugene was phenomenal to work with from beginning to end. He knows his stuff. He guided us through the entire sale process and never stopped being there for us at a moments notice. I never had to wonder whether or not Eugene was going to get back to us after texting or calling him; communication was on point. The rest of Eugenes team was outstanding. We loved the way our place was staged and how transparent the entire process was. You get a sense that the team is passionate about what they do. Overall would recommend Eugene without a doubt. I wish he could be my agent out here on the east coast.

    Eugene did a great job selling my condo. I know they work with much bigger, more expensive properties, but they gave me the same time and attention as they would any of their other clients. He knew the ins and outs of every part of each process; was super easy to work with; and his recommendations were almost always spot on. His team at the Local, Mike and Dana, were also a pleasure to work with -- they helped make the unit look great with furnishings I already had, and were great at working within the constraints of what I wanted to spend on repairs/staging. A couple of HOA-related hiccups came along unexpectedly during escrow, but Eugene hung in there and helped manage the obstacles as they came. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for help selling in LA.
