Selling in Los Angeles

Sell your LA home with a Realtor — not a cash buyer.

Cash-buyer companies promise speed, then offer you 60–80% of what your home is actually worth. You deserve full market value, real representation, and a strategy built around your timeline — not theirs.

Common questions from LA sellers

Frequently asked.

Should I sell to a cash buyer like Opendoor or a 'we buy houses' company?

Only if speed matters more than money. Most cash-buyer offers in Los Angeles come in 15–35% below market value once their fees and 'repair credits' are deducted. A traditional listing with a Realtor almost always nets you more — even after commission.

How long does it take to sell a house in Los Angeles?

Well-priced LA homes typically go under contract in 2–6 weeks, with close roughly 30 days after that. The exact timeline depends on price point, neighborhood, and condition. I'll give you a realistic estimate during your valuation.

What does it cost to list with a Realtor?

Commission is negotiable and only paid at closing if the home sells. There are no upfront fees to work with me, and I'll walk you through every number before you sign anything.

Do I need to make repairs before listing?

Not always. Some upgrades return more than they cost, others don't. I'll tour your home and tell you honestly what's worth doing and what to skip.

Find out what your LA home is really worth.

No obligation. No automated guesses. A real conversation with a real Realtor.
