Testimonials

“Emily was a great help in selling my loft. This was the 5th home I have sold, and the 6th Realtor I have worked with… Emily was by far the best. At a time of uncertainty and a failed attempt to sell my home (a home I loved, but was an unusual and expensive property), Emily stepped in, assessed the value, advised on updates, managed the staging, devised a strategy for the sale, and followed through with great success. She kept in touch without bothering, negotiated expertly, and closed the deal. If you are looking for a real estate agent. you will find none better than Emily Johnson.”
– Mark L., Arts District

“I chose Emily to represent me when I sold my home and I can’t say enough good things about her. She really knows what she is doing. She gave me the right advice about painting the exterior (and chose great colors), the right advice about staging my house, the right asking price to get the most interest. She was actively involved with every detail down to the doormat. She was at every showing and made sure the house was in perfect condition. When there was a delay in closing, she was level headed and kept me calm. The point is, she has all the skills you want in a realtor: a great work ethic, excellent taste and strong people skills. Oh, and my house sold for $130K over asking so that doesn’t suck either!”
– Jessica S., Mar Vista

“I bought my condo 5 years ago with Emily. When Covid hit and I decided to put it on the market, she moved quickly and got me an offer in a matter of days. We sold it for a big profit and everything was so smooth and straightforward. If only every agent was as thorough, sharp and savvy!”
– Zak S., West Hollywood

“Emily helped us purchase our first home after a year long search. She was so patient, knowledgeable, dependable, and during the final stages, a truly skilled negotiator (she was definitely a lawyer in another life. I highly recommend working with Emily, you honestly won’t regret it.”
– Mary M., Mid-City

“Emily patiently worked with us for almost a year of a wide-ranging housing search, including falling out of contract twice, before we identified the neighborhood we wanted and purchased a home. Throughout our process, she always demonstrated dedication, curiosity, and knowledge about the nitty-gritties of homes & home ownership.”
– Josh and Shayak, Venice

“Emily made buying our first home a dream. She really cares about her clients. We appreciated her transparency and matter of fact way of guiding us along the journey, all the while being supportive, patient, and listening to what was really important to us (or helping us figure that out!). She’s a wonderful person and excellent Realtor.”
– Tanaz I., Sherman Oaks
