Rodeo Realty

I would like to acknowledge someone very special in my office. My most amazing manager, Jason Katzman. I have been trying to figure out what to say succinctly, but there is just too much I want to say. I will do my best, so here goes. How do you say thank you to a man whose door is always open, who responds morning, noon, night, weekends, evenings, anytime, to help and advise.

We all experience challenges from time to time with our deals, and Jason is always available, no matter how large or small the question or issue, but I recently had two back to back situations which presented a lot of challenges. That being said, and without going into detail, Jason was always right there, always had my back, listened to all my concerns, gave me wonderful advice, and never once made me feel that any question or concern was too small or too silly. He stood up for me, and he even picked up the phone on my behalf to back me up. He does everything with integrity and with the highest regard for all parties involved, and he is a true inspiration.

I think he does his job, and does it without expecting any accolades or anything in return. I just felt it was time that he received the praise and recognition he deserves. I would really like everyone to know how amazing he is, how much we all love and appreciate him here in the Sherman Oaks office, and I hope he knows how very much this one particular agent appreciates who he is and all he does to support me, and all his agents. So Jason, here’s to you…Thank you! You are the Best!

Dear Ken Davis,

My name is Clifford Reh, Administrator for the property at 5748 Le Sage Avenue, Woodland Hills, California. The passing of my mother was traumatic and the decision of what to do with her home was very stressful. I had daily telephone calls from realtors wanting to list her house. My wife and I choose Mike Ace. It took us 18 months to decide what to do with the house.
Mike was excellent in knowing the probate process and very hands on with all the parties that were involved. He daily kept us up to date on the listing and made sure that we were getting the best offer for the sale. In only 11 days he got the house sold and for the full price that we all agreed on.

Mike is definitely an asset to Rodeo Realty and I will certainly recommend him to any of my friends and relatives that need a realtor in Southern California. The real estate business certainly could use more people like Mike.

Sincerely,

Clifford P. Reh

My name’s Seth Matlins, and on December 23rd, I closed escrow on a home (2230 Banyan Drive) because of Judy and Warren Handler. I thought you should know.

I first met the Handlers in 2001 when they were representing the seller of the home (2220 Banyan Drive) that has been mine since then. Despite our being on “opposite sides” of this first transaction, the Handlers never made me feel that our interests diverged, and we found a way to work together. Because of this, 14 years later, when I heard 2230 was going on the market, Warren and Judy were my only call.

30 minutes after our first conversation, Warren had already sent me area comps, and provided me with estimates on the value of the new property. From here, which was before the house was officially on the market, he and Judy walked us through bid strategy, inspections, discussions, and communication with the other broker, with the estate itself. They managed coordinating all inspections while I traveled with my family…and set the strategy for how we evaluated and deployed the information that came up during the inspections. In short, we were one of 4 buyers who came in over ask in the first week. We were, however, the only ones to get the house.

And, I have no doubt, we got it because of Warren and Judy…and that we wouldn’t have, but for them.

They’ve sold me one house and helped me buy another. I am wildly grateful to them and think their caring, market knowledge, savvy, and personal touch and professional ways have been the difference twice. And I thought you should know that I think they are absolutely amazing.

Best regards,
Seth Matlins

I had an excellent experience working with Philip! I met him at an open house in Thousand Oaks, and he made a great first impression. He really listened when I told him what I wanted in a home and sent me the current listings matching my criteria. He was always available when I had questions and was able to coordinate visits to the homes I wanted to see (even if it meant going back a second and third time). He was very thorough and transparent and made my first-time home buying experience easy and understandable. He is a kind-hearted, down to earth man and I really appreciated all of his knowledge and professionalism. He was able to get me a great deal on a home and we are so thankful!
