Reid Kaplan

Our laudatory comments come BEFORE the close of our home sale. This timing is intentional. We want to place special focus on Reid’s PROCESS, not just his tremendous outcomes.

After seven property exchanges on both coasts, we’ve never had a realtor who actually PARTNERED with us in selling our home. Most list, some guide and show, but, “partner”?! He partnered by leading, preparing for and ultimately managing the sale. He supplied the resources and oversaw painting, gardening, cleaning, staging, etc. In our experience, Reid continuously worked at a high standard of professionalism. Beyond this, Reid has a sense of appropriate guidance, and he scrutinizes the blizzard of details in the modern transaction. I’d wish him for all our friends.

Because of all this on his part, great, even fabulous, we’re looking at a great outcome. (He represented us for both our purchase and sale.)

We’ve worked with Reid through different real estate transactions in several highly competitive markets and he’s been a great partner and guide through all of them. He was with us when we bought our first home and subsequently when we had to rent it out after we outgrew the space. Most recently helped us purchase a single family home once we decided to put down roots.

The thing I appreciate the most about Reid is simply how even keeled he is. Like it or not, real estate transactions are an emotional roller coaster. Every time we lost a bid in a multi-offer deal, every time we inundated him with 3-4 new listings that we were convinced were “perfect,” every time a counter-party tried to push us move faster than we were comfortable with, Reid was there to protect and guide us every step of the way.

Suffice it to say we’ve encountered several hiccups (through no fault of Reid) through these transactions and Reid was there to ground us and help explain our options and next steps. He never pressured us to go one way or the other (i.e. bid higher, go with a particular tenant over another, etc.) rather choosing to explain the possible outcomes depending on what path we took. Very happy and grateful to be working with Reid.

Reid goes above and beyond - truly a great partner during the home search process. He's knowledgable about many different parts of LA and has a good grasp on market trends. He answered all of our questions (and we had MANY as first time home buyers) with patience and thorough responses, often researching the topics on our behalf and coming back with comprehensive answers. He was helpful in helping us navigate negotiations once we entered the bidding process, and we always felt like he had our best interests in mind. He has also made himself available to us for one-off needs even after we completed the buying process. Highly recommend!

Reid is genuinely a "trusted realtor" with whom you feel comfortable having on your side. He's knowledgeable about the market, buy/sell process, well connected with other realtors, calm, positive and practical, and quickly responds to inquiries by email, phone or text (even on the weekends), and overall helped pave the way for a smooth sales transaction, which included navigating offers and counteroffers and ultimately helping to secure a sales pricing above listing.

Reid is hands down one of the best realtors out there! He helped us find our lovely home and gave us his honest opinion about every single home we checked out during our house hunting process. We were on a time crunch and needed to find a place ASAP. He is extremely experienced in what he does. Thank you so much for helping us find our home Reid!!

Reid worked with me for a very long time with trying to find a perfect place for our family. He is extremely patient and always there with a response to help you out. He is honest and reliable and goes above and beyond in every way. He represented us as a buyer and seller and I felt so well taken care of in all avenues. Reid does all he can to make your experience easy and smooth. I was surprised how little I had to do to prepare our place to sell since he took care of everything for us. His number one goal felt like it was to make us feel comfortable and well taken care of. He still checks in to make sure we are happy and doing well. I highly doubt many realtors do as much as he does to make their clients stress free. I couldn't recommend him more.

Reid's knowledge and professionalism is second to none. This was the first time we ever sold, and Reid was extremely patient and helpful in answering any question we had. The entire process was seamless from start to finish.

Our place needed a little bit of extra care to prepare it for sale and he was able to guide us through every step. He helped identify which updates and upgrades would bring in the maximum return on investment and avoid any unnecessary costs. He provided referrals for contractors, cleaners, staging, and more. Not once did he pressure or push us to use any of the referrals he provided. While we didn't end up going with all of the referrals, we did use quite a few of them as their pricing and work were very competitive to other sources we found on our own.

We've worked with other agents on prior purchases and always had less than perfect experiences. We just assumed that was par for the course when dealing with real estate agents. Now we know better. There are levels to this and Reid is clearly a top tier agent.

I could not have been happier with Reid representing us in the recent sale of our house. I found Reid to be extremely proactive in coming up with great ideas to help us optimize the presentation of our house for listing, super responsive to any concerns or questions we had, and quickly adaptive to some "twists and turns" that arose during the escrow process. He had very wise strategic suggestions to help guide us through the process, and all went extremely smoothly. I would highly recommend Reid to anyone looking for a trustworthy and highly skilled realtor to represent them in the purchase or sale of property.

I can't say enough good things about Reid. He represented me in the purchase of my current home and the sale of my prior home. He is efficient, always available, and whenever there is a problem, he has a recommended solution in mind. His attention to detail is also excellent. He is definitely someone you want on your side. If I ever purchase or sell in the future, I plan to use Reid as my agent.
