About Shahla
With you Every Step of the Way!
I enjoy being part of the process of helping clients attain their goals & dreams. This is a life long relationship I like to build with all my clients!
How do you help buyers to find the right properties for them?
I like to really get to know what their specific needs are & then from there we assess their wants. I am a SoCal native with a true interest in making my clients as successful and happy as I possibly can in a process that can be filled with emotions.
How do you make sure buyers get the best price for the property they are interested in?
By gathering all the relevant information available to derive the most defendable offer possible. Because market rules, the question can also be, How do I make sure my clients get the home they want with all the competition? Price aggressively! Make an aggressive offer that will beat out the competition!
What do you do to help market the properties your clients are selling?
By offering a wide selection of marketing campaigns, I can tailor the most effective strategies for each home I market.
How do you ensure your sellers get the highest price?
Trust. Clients can trust that I will not let them "over-price" and shoot themselves in the foot. My colleagues trust in me that what I present is always of good value and sound pricing, so their clients can be confident of any offers they decide to put forth.
What do you recommend sellers do to make sure their selling process is smooth?
Each seller is unique and that answer will depend on the circumstances at hand. I also let them know from the get go some of the possible bumps & turbulence that may occur so they know what to expect along the way. Hoping for a smooth transaction but preparing them for any roughness along the way.

I have known Shahla for several years. She brought us a client for one of our rental homes in Pomona area about 4 years ago.. She is very professional, very pleasant to work with and very detailed. Ever since then, shahla has leased many of our rental homes. She is a very good real estate agent and I would highly recommend her.” - Rick Garcia– User Review
“Shahla was introduced to me through another agent in early part of August 2013 and I am so happy that she was my real estate agent because I had very tight schedule to take a look at properties that I need to see but she accommodate her schedule even late evening to meet my schedule. Thanks to her great deal of effort, I did find a perfect home that I was looking for in middle of August and I know I could never find one without her help. When you are looking for the house for yourself and your family, I would strongly recommend that you should contact Shahla Salamat. She is the best real estate agent that I know.” -Toshiko K. 09/13/2013– User Review
“I had a wonderful experience with Shahla Salamat! She was very curious and very much attended to my needs. She came up with several suggestions as to what I wanted and took the time to listen to what I thought I needed. We made a great team. I loved the areas she showed me. I could tell she took the time to find the best for me. Since I lived alone, she had some suggestions for that too, where I felt really safe. Shahla is the best! Trust her for your needs in finding that home or selling your home. She is a very personable person and easy to work with.” -Sylvia Seats September 14, 2013– User Review
“Shahla Salamat was an exceptional Real Estate Agent. She made the whole Short Sale process a breeze and was always very considerate. She has become like family to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better agent than Shahla. Shahla went above and beyond the call of duty. She does her research, is a hard worker, and very committed to solving our short sale problems. When I am in the market again, any agent I chose will always be compared to Shahla, and I doubt will ever measure up. I just hope she might decide to work the OC area one day.” - The Saucedo’s September 14, 2013 (– User Review

Shahla helped me in my time of need to find an apartment within my price range. Although we were 30 minutes apart in distance, in the drop of the dime she dropped what she was doing to help me. In terms of her knowledge of Real Estate and interpersonal skills there is no one better and for the rest of my life I will choose no one else for my Real Estate needs. -Amir S. October 05, 2013– User Review
Shahla helped my husband and I learn the whole buying process. She's the type of person to drop whatever it is she's doing to really go above and beyond to answer any questions. She isn't the type of real estate agent who's out to make a quick buck she truly cares about her clients. We weren't ready to buy just yet but she helped guide us to take the necessary steps to be able to purchase a home in the future. She's very friendly and knowledge. When we're ready she would be the only person we would call for all of our real estate needs. -Monique G. October 05, 2013– User Review
I can't say enough nice words about Shahla! She helped me find my first home. In today's competitive environment it's very important to have a Realtor who can show you a home at a moment's notice, and Shahla always did that when I needed her. She also was very honest about a home and the positives and negatives. She "gets it" that a house is a home and searching and buying is an emotional experience. She certainly makes it tolerable. Home buying is draining, but her cheerful personality and knowledge made is so much easier. I highly recommend her. -V. Sukovaty October 06, 2013– User Review
After working with several different realtors searching for a rental for me I met Shahla! I wish I would have met her first. Shahla new what I was looking for and immediatly found several houses in my area and met me with complete portfolios on those properties. She set up appointments for me and delt with the other realtors representing those properties to make it smooth and easy to view those properties. Any concerns I had about owners of properties or history she investigated for me with all results shown to me on paper. I new she came from Chino to Riverside to help me and made no quams about her travel. I found Shahla very professional and pleasant to work with. Ultimatly she helped me find the home perfect for our family that we are now in! Thank You Shahla for your dedication and determination to help us find our home. - ?Satified Client?

It was absolutely wonderful. She was available for us whenever we needed her and she found us exactly what we wanted. She showed us some homes and then she showed us some more.

“Shahla was such a rockstar during our first home buying experience! Without her assistance we wouldn’t be in our dream home today! We had a great experience and hope to be able to use her in the future for our next home buying opportunity! “We began our home journey a little over a year ago, with every step of the way being a bit frustrating. For every bid we put in on a home , we were out bid. Shahla was with us every step of the way , giving us pep talks when we wanted to quit. We viewed so many homes , and fell in love with these homes. When are hearts were broken, Val was there for us. Angelica and I are survivors of the mortgage meltdown. We both lost our homes 6 years ago. Valerie helped us be home owners once again. Every step of the way Shahla was the there for us, to help us achieve our dreams and regain our dignity. Thank you, Shahla soooo much, you are not just our realtor for life, your now part of our family”. “Valerie, You were so awesome giving up so much of your time as there were not a lot of homes available in the areas we wanted with the size we needed and we continually went out looking two or three times a week for several weeks. We would go online and find something that just got listed and text you to go see the property. You were very patient with us. After looking at many properties and making offers on several, we found a perfect home to fit our area of choice and size needed. It was truly a wonderful experience working with you. We had many laughs along the way and have built a very special friendship. We will definitely refer you to our friends and family wanting to purchase a home. ” - Matt and Katie Meares– User Review
“Valerie at Southern California Realty Associates recently helped me sell my condo in Claremont. She did an open house and sold it to the third person who looked at it. I was very happy about the quick sale and not having to deal with a lot of people coming though my home. She has recently helped me purchase another home in Chino Hills. It is exactly what I wanted and she has been there every step of the way to help with the process. She is very knowledgeable and responds quickly when I contact her by phone or email. I have recommended her to many of my friends and co-workers and will continue to do so. She is a fabulous realtor who really knows her business and cares about her clients.” - Eleanor McCartan– User Review
“Valerie Pestana was a great asset in helping with my purchase. My husband and I knew that we wanted to make an investment, but were not sure of what kind. We considered a rental property near our home, a mountain cabin or a condo near the beach. Valerie gave us access to multiple listings in all areas and took me out to see several properties. When we finally decided on the beach condo, Valerie was incredibly accommodating. She made sure we saw available properties right away so that we wouldn’t miss out on a great deal….And we didn’t!! We love our little get-away and are so grateful for Valerie’s help. I would recommend this knowledgeable, attentive and honest realtor to anyone.” - Lorraine A.– User Review

Shahla has gone above and beyond to help meet my needs. She has alway been honest and fair when asked question about the area in which a house was shown. I would highly recommend her to any of my family and friends. -Sonny Gonzales May 20, 2014– User Review
She was terrific! I told her I already had an agent but wasn't finding many homes with my agent. She very thoughtfully offered to send daily messages that matched perfectly to my needs. She'd did exactly that. I was able to see many more homes and more quickly than the other sites. In fact, I found our new home one day after it went on the market. Through her emails. I would recommend my closest friends and family to Shahla! Considering everything she did for me, despite knowing she couldn't be our agent, I can just imagine how hard she would work as our agent. Shahla, again I can't thank you enough for your help! -Sandy Scott May 20,2014– User Review

In just seven days we already found our new home, sign the lease and ready to move in. Thanks Shahla. I would definitely recommend her. -Chinette November 11, 2014– User Review
Shahla was a wonderful person to work with and I wouldn't hesitate a second to work with her again in the future. She was quick to respond to our needs, VERY well prepared once it came to showing us some places, really worked with what we wanted and could afford and had some great insights on many of the properties. Shahla made us feel relaxed right from the get-go and made our hunt for a new home a fun experience rather than a chore. We viewed plenty in one day because she had filtered them out so well and by the next week, we were signing papers! We couldn't have been luckier to have Shahla help us through it all. She has knowledge of everything you need to get a home: the neighborhood, the school systems, negotiation with the seller, and most especially the house! We are excited to move in next week and we couldn't be happier, thanks to Shahla! -Reagan November 12, 2014– User Review

Shahla Salamat always was very helpful and courteous. We have been extremely happy with her service, her communication style, her urgency when needed and her overall professional approach. She helped us navigate the local market. She never pushed us on any of the properties, but always provided a very balanced opinion when needed. All these attention to details and taking care of client's interests are rare qualities in today's market. We would highly recommend her services. -Mitra R. November 12, 2014– User Review
Shahla was an amazing person to work with while my husband and I were looking for a new place to call home. Newly married, first child on the way and having to find a place to live, my husband and I were in complete transition from Northern California to Southern California. We hotel lived for about 2.5 weeks before finding the best rental for the time being thanks to Shahla. Shahla had our application in and approved with a day for this new rental in West Covina. The rental we decided to go was perfect for us to bring a little one home to. Gated community, first tenants to live in home, just built and reminds us of our home we just sold and not to mention the great neighbors who look out for one another. We couldn't have found a better place to rent without Shahla. Not only would we highly recommend her for finding a rental but we look forward to working with her this upcoming year in finding a home to buy. Shahla makes note of exactly what you are seeking and hoping for in your new place and won't waste your time with homes that are of no interest to you. -Hidalgo January 23, 2015– User Review
I highly recommend Shahla she is very helpful, knowledgeable and go out of her way to help you find a property to your liking. I've never meet a realtor with such compassion. She email me on my birthday. She's Amazing!!! -Lawanda Noland August 15, 2015– User Review
