Kip and Wendy Louttit wrote George Fotion was absolutely fabulous as our realtor! We couldn’t be more pleased and would most highly recommend George to anyone. He was masterful at finding us a home that met our requirements, in a very tough seller’s market, at the price we could afford. Added complexity in our case was that we were relocating from the East Coast and had to sell a home on that end while buying our new home in CA. George navigated that dynamic with ease. George’s recommendations were always on the mark; he was available 7 days a week at all hours of the day and night by text, phone, email, etc.; and he knew and explained the CA real estate process perfectly. Most of all, we truly trusted George and knew that he always had our interests as buyer first and foremost in mind. Very very very well done and most highly recommended.

Dr Bill Green wrote on 9/28/2014 George Fotion is the consummate real estate pro. He is knowledgeable, experienced, organized, detail-oriented and a gentle, but firm, advocate for his clients. He is also a skilled “explainer” and guides the client through what can be a complex, confusing and illogical process. But best of all, he is a really nice person and fun to work with. Whether buyer or seller, if you choose George to represent your interests, you will be working with a real estate professional who is second to none.

Roz Halikis wrote I have known George for decades and strongly believe in his advice and his work ethic. My family has worked with George on many real estate issues and found him to not only be pro-active in all that he undertakes but also works with the highest integrity. He has done real estate sales, purchases and rentals for us with an engaging manner towards the buyer and the seller. HE IS THE BEST!!!

Adeline Arjad wrote on 12/5/2014 I have renovated and sold 43 properties over the last 10 years. This transaction was by far the absolute smoothest ever. George started out with an incredible amount of real estate knowledge and a superb execution of marketing (online and off) – but the real talent lies in his people skills. He understands how to talk to buyers and sellers to get the finest results as quickly as possible. His feedback is neutral (he is not thinking of himself) and extremely fair. His is unbelievably honest and generous too. Here are the results of my listing with him: 1. He met with me and gave me detailed information about the area, value and type of buyer that we could attract. 2. He advised me NOT TO SPEND A PENNY renovating the home for sale (this saved me $30,000+) 3. He marketed the listing “offline” for a week before officially listing it. 4. He contacted people that he knows and generated buzz. 5. By the time the he listed the property we got MULTIPLE OFFERS IMMEDIATELY. 6. We had it off in the market in less than two weeks with a $1,150,000 sales price (listed for $1,200,000) 7. Both the buyer and seller were left with feeling great about this transaction. The house was sold in under 5 weeks!!!! He advises, responds quickly and delivers. He is truly an amazing real estate agent.

Greg and Melinda Deutsch wrote I simply cannot recommend George’s services highly enough. He achieved amazing results with respect to the sale of our home in South Redondo without ever formally listing our house. Utilizing various social networks, online real estate sites and other high-tech means, George was able to generate substantial interest in our house, resulting in multiple offers and a sale price well above the appraised value of our home and one of the highest prices for the sale of a home on the Avenues in South Redondo (other than on the Esplanade) in the past several years. In a nutshell, George provides truly exceptional service with the type of personal attention and friendship rarely encountered in any service industry. If you are looking to sell your home in the South Bay, you should definitely speak to George.

Patrick Durocher wrote on 8/27/2014 George shows a higher level of professionalism and respect for his field and the parties involved in it than I have encountered in all of my many many experiences with many many other real estate “professionals” over multiple transactions in multiple states. George has an uncommon expertise in knowing not only the geographic area of his focus, but most of the people in it, their histories, and what will be happening before others have a clue, as well of course as the macro trends, and all the ins and outs and intricacies involved in these transactions. From the outset George was extremely responsive, while not once overstepping any boundaries. He provided detailed FACTUAL information relevant to the decision making process, as well as expertise that only years of learning and experience can provide. It was a true pleasure working with George as he actually both cared to help us find the home we sought and WORKED to make sure we got what we were after. We would most strongly recommend George, and we have never said that about any other agent anywhere. Also, and the btw – we met him via responding to a listing he had. I told him I wanted to be the very first to see it. He made it happen. We’re not socially connected nor related. We were outbid by an all cash buyer on that property the same day it was shown, but George kept us informed, and looked for any and every possible alternative until we landed the one we wanted. Best of the best. Highly likely to recommend.

Chris Brown on 5/27/2015 wrote George is what I would describe as a consummate professional. He really knows his local real estate market and has great knowledge of the entire real estate transaction. This expertise really comes into play when negotiating on behalf of his clients. If you are looking to buy/sell real estate in southern California, I would strongly recommend giving George a call if you are wanting the best terms with the least red tape. He loves going the extra mile to create a client for life. I always look forward to doing business with George!

George was recommeded to us through family and he was wonderful! He was always available to show us homes and as soon as we had any questions for the seller, he was right on the phone or email with the other agent. Also, being first-time homebuyers, George really helped us out by explaining the process each step of the way and he was present at our inspection. He really made us feel more comfortable about buying a home by offering great tips and advice. George and his team worked hard for us during the escrow process and helped make our dream of owing a home come true. We highly recommend him!

Doug wrote on 10/12/2014 Sold a Single Family home in 2014 in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA I don’t know how many properties I‘ve bought and sold, but everything about this sale was excellent. From his market analysis which was right-on to the multiple offers and a super smooth escrow, this deal was one of the best! I was in residential and commercial real estate for many years, but I even learned a new twist on how to always be the highest bidder. Apparently old Dougs can learn new tricks! Thanks George, Douglas

06/13/2015 – Father Michael Courey Sold a Single Family home in 2015 for approximately $2.325M George was my sellers representative for a sale of a home in a trust for which I serve as trustee. He worked with my attorney and accountant for the trust as well as the beneficiaries with honesty and expertise. I have never sold a home before and I had to act in the best interest of the trust and the beneficiaries. George walked me through the complicated process of the sale and through his marketing skills brought the best offer possible to the table and we closed quickly and far above my expectations regarding the final offer. I highly recommend George with enthusiasm for all of your real estate needs!

Steve and Marilyn Kalty wrote We have worked with George over the course of several months, and have found him to be a phenomenal help. We have looked at dozens of properties together, and my spouse and I choose to be “picky” about this big decision. George has never run out of patience, and has never tried to talk us into a home. He’s easy to talk to, listens to our feedback, and tries to work with it, but also doesn’t let it limit him – if he sees something that he finds interesting, he tells us about it and tells us why he thinks we should take a look. He is a bounty of information about the market and the area we are looking. However, in addition to the statistics, he tries very hard to make sure we see the context behind them. He’s a help, pure and simple, and truly sees helping his clients as his business. I would highly recommend George to anyone who wants a real estate agent who’s primary concern is helping them make the right decision.

Essam Diebes wrote George Fotion never tires and will keep on digging until he sells your property or finds the house you want to buy. He is very pleasant and easy to communicate with. He is very professional, diligent, patient and generous with his time. His extensive knowledge of the real estate market and financing options, based on his 30 years of experience in the business, are real assets to his clients. In addition, his insight into negotiating strategies and contract terms based on current market conditions is very valuable to buyers and sellers alike. George is vey analytical and keeps up to date with current internet and social media applications to the real estate market to reach a wider range of potential buyers and sellers. He has an excellent website where he publishes several reports and a newsletter on current market status and also provides links to several useful resources for market research. George is forthcoming on a timely basis with all the information, data and advice you need to make a sound decision. I highly recommend his services.

Peter Pettler reviewed George Fotion 06/15/2015 George Fotion of Call realty did an outstanding job. I am an attorney. The seller was the trustee of a trust. Such a sale is different than a standard sale of residential realty. George did all of his homework, did everything correctly, and involved me as necessary so that I could do my job properly. I was very impressed with his marketing strategy and organization in approaching the sale. I am sure that we received the highest possible price through his efforts.

Amir Desai wrote Working with George was an absolute pleasure. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a realtor. George is very knowledgeable, responsive and is not afraid to give you his genuine opinion. I can’t say enough how pleasantly surprised I was with our experience. It was George’s experienced that facilitated us being able to quickly move on a property we liked which was instrumental in us signing a purchase contract. George is the most expert real estate agent I have ever worked with. His mastery of the South Bay is surreal. George is completely fluent in the low-level contractual details of buying and selling which makes him an excellent advisor. He is super tech savvy which I am convinced help get us top dollar on a home sale. Most importantly, George is an absolute gentleman and wonderful to work with!

Jim Butterworth wrote George outlined his approach to the selling process in a one hour meeting. It became clear that he full understood the need for a web based approach and he showed several examples of how he had successfully used that previously. We settled on the asking price quickly based on the existing market along with thoughts on the near term future potential. George coordinated all the future activities including the photographer. the pest control and home inspectors and the broker’s open house which was well attended (>100 realtors). Several brokers brought their clients with them to the broker’s open house and one of them made a full price offer that day which we accepted. The escrow was also seamless even though the buyer’s were from out of the country and both the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays intervened. We have bought and sold 10+ houses and this was by far the easiest process in large part due to George and to a lesser extent the electronic signing process.

Choi Family reviewed George Fotion 06/05/2015 Helped me sell a home George is an amazing agent. He not only helped me sell my home, I bought a home from him as well. It was obvious from the start that George is very experienced and knowledgeable about the South Bay area. First: George helped me buy a home. He provided ample information about the sellers to help me set my expectations and helped me construct an reasonable offer. He answered all my questions about the property and explained everything to the fullest. I couldn’t have been happier with my buying experience. Second: I was so confident and happy with George’s expertise and service that I kept him as my selling agent of my home. He did a thorough market analysis, provided me with visibility into every step in his process, and helped me formulate a offer price. He brought in a professional photographer (at his cost) and literally transformed our house with the staging and pictures. Our house sold within 1 week and I’m 100% sure it was due to George’s efforts. He stayed proactive throughout both processes and had right amount of “push” when needed. He still keeps in touch and I think of George as a resource that I can go to in the future if I ever need. He definitely exceeded my expectations to the fullest and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Lisa and Greg Levine wrote George was recommended to me 16 years ago when we bought our home in PVE. We found his familiarity and knowledge of the area to be quite impressive and his work ethic proved to be unsurpassed. His insight, wisdom and expertise during a complex transaction with multiple offers was the catalyst for us being the winning bid. George is dedicated to providing his clients with the best possible service. His quick email responses, positive attitude and the fact that he delivers what he promises is the reason we have used George multiple times. We highly recommend his services!
