In the worst of the real estate market in January of 2009 I listed my town house in Santa Monica with Brian. I hadn't known him and he got a hold of me through a cold call. So to say the least I was skeptical. My townhouse sold the first day at full price to a client of Brian's. I never had one single issue, despite the marketplace and despite the fact that the property appraised less than the sales price. Everything Brian promised happened when he said it would happen, his experience couldn't have been better, and I ended up really liking Brian personally as well, I consider him a friend. The next time I buy or sell a house, he will be my first call.

Wonderful Real Estate Agent

We just had the most incredible experience selling our townhome in Santa Monica with Brian Maser of Abbot Kinney Real Estate. If you are looking to buy or sell in the Santa Monica / Venice area, I cannot recommend him more highly. From a business standpoint, he is smart, savvy, proactive, and his marketing materials are class-act. He priced our home aggressively and appropriately, and we had 3 offers before the first open house! Personally, he is a great guy - he is very easy to work with and he manages both the crazy mortgage environment and the general emotional aspects of buying/selling like a pro. He talked my husband and I off a ledge or two! He is also incredibly accessible - if he doesn't answer the phone on the first ring, he responds to voicemail, text, and emails as prompt as anyone I've worked with.

He's a classy, cool guy. Please talk to him about your real estate needs, and feel free to tell him Melissa and Marc referred you.

“He came, he saw, he sold.”

I recently had a family situation that required me to sell my condo immediately. The market had dropped significantly and I knew I was going to loose money but just wasn’t sure how much…so I interviewed several realtors…

After first meeting Brian I liked him…He was genuine, honest, very straight forward, and was all about doing the right thing…my gut said to go with him. He gave me his thoughts on my condo, his strategy, and told me where I could realistically expect to land in this market… wow was it lower than I expected, wanted, or thought I could afford!

I was desperate…my head told me I couldn’t afford to loose too much money so I went with another realtor. A realtor who promised he could get significantly more for my condo than I thought and that he could sell it immediately…big mistake!! Neither happened and it was a huge headache! Not only did I waste my time with this other realtor I missed valuable opportunity in the market by being overpriced.

So I called Brian and he welcomed me with open arms and without judgment for not going with him initially. We adjusted my strategy and price and within a week we were under contract! His guidance was superb…He was great through this whole process. Brian established excitement and momentum for getting an offer and then was detailed and diligent throughout escrow and the closing process.

A true professional!

I’ve learned my lesson…I wouldn’t go with any other realtor than Brian Maser…He is THE ONLY CHOICE!!!

"Thanks again for your help with this and your patience. You are superior to any agent I have dealt with, and I have dealt with plenty of them. Want to help sell our home in Delaware?"

“Brian represented me as a buyer and quickly matched my needs with an excellent property. Throughout the process he was fair, communicated clearly and was trustworthy when it came to negotiating the important details like price and terms. He’s a great guy and his personality is perfect for the business. I would definitely work with him again!”

Dear Brian,

Nancy and I want to extend our sincere thanks for your help selling our home in Santa Monica. Your keen understanding of the market and strategic planning was vital to our successful closing on the property, at the value we sought, under challenging market conditions.

Especially since Nancy and I are not currently Santa Monica residents, your project management of the painting, grounds maintenance, and interior design staging took a large burden off us and certainly fostered our marketing success. Your cross platform marketing and tenacity to meet and develop clients drove the interest in our home and enabled us to achieve a top dollar selling price.

You are prompt and clear in communications with realistic expectations even when we experienced difficult issues. I wish all the people with whom we engage in serious business dealings had the professionalism and enthusiasm you bring to your business. When there comes a time in the future that we have any need for Real Estate transactions in Los Angeles, you will be our goto man. I will confidently recommend you to anyone we know who needs a Real Estate professional in Los Angeles. Feel free to have any of your prospective clients contact us if they need a recommendation.

With Warm Regards,

I used Brian to sell 3 properties at the beginning of the housing crisis and found him to be exceptionally professional. I have owned real estate and worked with Realtors in the past. I also have the qualification myself, though did it mainly to buy my own properties and in the case of the 3 properties Brian sold for me, I did not have the time to do the work. And work it was.

One of the properties sold relatively easily. However the other two required an enormous amount of time, dealing with in one case tenants who decided to be just about as difficult as possible in a building with some problems. Brian and his team not only did what was necessary with good humor but kept me extremely well informed and with some savvy price positioning did as well as could be done in a difficult market. I would not hesitate to recommend Brian or to use him again.
