Real Estate Agents in Santa Monica, CA

“Ian was truly superb. He went absolutely above and beyond to work for us. Our mother had a debilitating stroke, and it was necessary to sell our childhood home to pay for her care. Ian put in the extra time and energy to make sure that our mother's property got the best bid possible, so that we could pay for her care, enabling her to age with dignity and comfort. He was rock solid, dependable, and reliable - with endless energy and host of knowledge! He helped us navigate a host of really tough situations with good humor, determination, and excellent referrals to service providers, handling anything from squatters to hoarders to renovations and yard work. Ian even gave himself a blister cutting back our overgrown yard! He was tough with negotiations, but tender with my mother. When she was mournful about leaving her house, Ian was there with gentle advice and charm. He helped calm her down so we could move her into a new space, and was able to share personal advice about caring for elder family. He is absolutely the best, and I would recommend him in a heartbeat.”

“If you’re looking for a realtor who will go above and beyond to get your dream home, look no further than Anita Sever. She is a force of nature in the real estate world—persistent, thorough, and deeply committed to her clients.

• Unmatched Persistence
Anita helped me purchase a condo at a price that was nearly unheard of. This wasn’t just good fortune—it was her ability to communicate with sellers in a way that earns their trust and keeps opportunities open. The home I purchased had a complex backstory, as it was part of an estate sale following the passing of its longtime owner. The situation made the timeline unpredictable, and the property had been on the market before it was fully available for purchase. In most cases, a home like this would attract multiple offers and bidding wars, but Anita stayed on top of every detail and ensured I was in the right place at the right time.

• Thorough & Detail-Oriented
Anita leaves no stone unturned. Real estate transactions are full of surprises, and when an open permit issue surfaced near the close of escrow, she knew exactly how to handle it. Even in rare situations where something isn't straightforward, she finds the right experts, gets them on the phone fast, and ensures that nothing is left to chance. Her assistant, Marilee, is an incredible extension of this expertise, ensuring that every detail is carefully addressed.

• Genuinely Cares About Her Clients
Buying a home is an emotional journey, and Anita understands that better than anyone. There were times I felt overwhelmed—my wife had just given birth, we were navigating the early days of parenthood, and the weight of making such a big decision felt like too much. But Anita didn’t just guide me through the process—she truly supported me, offering reassurance, perspective, and even moments of much-needed encouragement. She doesn’t just focus on closing deals; she genuinely cares about the well-being of her clients.

• A True Professional with Multiple Years of Experience
Anita’s depth of knowledge in real estate is unmatched. Whether it’s negotiations, resolving last-minute challenges, or handling sensitive transactions with care and professionalism, she brings an incredible level of expertise, integrity, and commitment to her work.

If you’re looking for a persistent advocate, a meticulous expert, and a realtor who treats you like more than just another client, Anita Sever is the person you want in your corner.”

“Sara is a fantastic realtor! We met her after seeing the house we wanted to buy, and two days later our offer was accepted. Three weeks later, we closed. She works exceptionally hard and has wonderful attention to detail. We would absolutely work with her again.”

“The team at the Jessica Miller group went above and beyond to make sure we got in a property that was the perfect fit for us. We worked directly with Terry Tseng. As first time home buyers, he was so helpful in making us feel comfortable, dumbing down the entire process and making sure the deal went through. He always was looking out for our best interests. We will be using him for our next purchase and can’t say enough great things about him!”

“Sooo, you gotta be on the Below Market Housing list thru the City of Santa Monica. There is a long list and hope you receive an invite to apply. They choose 20 people to contact for every one Apt. Better off finding one on my own. Only problem is most rents for one bedroom exceed the amount of the Voucher. Slim chance, but, I'm not giving up.”
