Our experience with Maria and the Salzman Team was exceptional. Sadly, my father-in-law passed away earlier this year, and we had to sell his long-term home. Maria demonstrated her expertise and proactivity by identifying an issue with the trust and promptly referred us to an estate attorney. We placed our trust in Maria’s expertise as a Certified Probate & Trust Specialist, and she certainly lived up to our expectations. Throughout the process, she effectively communicated with the Trustee, ensuring that all heirs were consistently updated. Maria’s patience and prompt responses to our inquiries were greatly appreciated. She possesses a deep understanding of the real estate market and accurately determined the appropriate price for the family home. Within the first weekend, we received multiple offers, and the sale closed just 30 days later.Overall, Maria made the entire process of selling our family home a pleasant experience. Whether you are buying or selling a home or simply seeking advice, we highly recommend Maria as she is highly professional and incredibly helpful. You won’t be disappointed.

Words can’t explain how grateful we are to have had the chance to work with Maria and Richard from the Salzman Team. They stood by us through the entire process of purchasing our new house, were incredibly quick to respond to any questions we had, they talked through every scenario with us and made sure we were well taken care of. They’re so thoughtful and we learned through the process that they care about their clients and listen so intently to our needs. They knew how badly we wanted our home and they made it happen. Highly recommend!

In early 2023 I was kind of just monitoring the Manhattan/Hermosa Beach housing market - dipping my toe in the market. In mid-June I saw a property advertised on a Friday and on a lark went to take a look at the open house. It was a perfect fit for what I was looking at, for a reasonable price; but I knew it would go fast.At that point I didnt have an agent, although I had started a loan pre-approval process. I knew I needed to move fast.I had been acquainted with Dave Salzman many years ago through mutual friends, and on a business level knew he had worked with one of my closest friends who strongly recommended his work.I called him on Friday afternoon after touring the property, and he jumped in immediately. His team and I quickly assembled a bid on the house, and simultaneously introduced me to Tom Dinnegan at Priority Financial for additional loan options.As Dave communicated early, it was going to be a very competitive bid and indeed it was; there were six offers on the property by the end of the weekend. Dave and his team were in constant communication and we submitted a second offer which turned out to be the winner. Daves knowledge and experience of the local real estate landscape and intimate knowledge of the other players (including the listing agency) was our unfair advantage. From zero to offer acceptance in 4-5 days.During the escrow and closing period Dave (and Tom, as I opted to use him for the mortgage loan) attended to every detail, walking me through all of the paperwork, documentation, and labyrinth of bureaucracy in buying a house. We closed exactly 30 days after going into escrow - really as perfect a result as the process allows!If I had to do it all again Id definitely pick the same people to do it with - I cant recommend the Salzman team high enough!

After a long and grueling house hunt, we started losing hope that we would find the right home for us. We were put in touch with Maria and Dave and were assured they were up the for the challenge. Maria kept in touch with the selling agents of houses within our parameters and is truly the reason we ended up in the house were in now. After a deal fell through, the selling agent reached out to Maria to see if we were still interested. Her negotiating skills got us in under listing and we couldnt be more thankful for the Salzman team! Thank you!!

We recently decide to sell our long term home in the South Bay. Based on his reputation for fairness, we reached out to Randy Leaf of the Salzman Team at Engel & Volkers.Randy immediately made an evaluation of our property, estimated a fair marketable price, negotiated a reasonable contract and started marketing the property. Randy walked us through the entire process, including dealing with contingencies and time lines. He negotiated with the buyers agents and had an offer in a very short period of time.At all times, Randy was efficient, managed reasonable expectations, professional and above all else, ethical in all of his dealings.I would not hesitate to work with Randy Leaf and the Salzman Team at Engel & Volkers for any future real estate transactions.Paul & Sharon Wolcott

Randy Leaf was the agent involved in selling and buying a residence for me. I could not have asked for a more professional, nice, patient, thorough and intuitive person to handles all transactions on my behalf.He is the “go to” agent in my estimation.

We had to make a fast move and wanted to find the perfect home. Dave and Carol and the whole team worked hard to help us find exactly what we wanted. From late night talks to late evenings tours we were so pleased with how we worked so well with the whole team.
