Richard was efficient and transparent during the offer submission and negotiation process. He marketed the property brilliantly and got the results we expected in the time frame we needed. I highly recommend working with Richard.

We feel incredibly fortunate that we found Richard as our real estate agent. Richard helped us buy a home during a hot real estate market with fierce competition from other buyers. To say that Richard is a great negotiator is an understatement. He was able to secure a deal for us with great terms despite competing with other buyers with extremely strong offers. He really worked his real estate magic to help us purchase this home! To top it off, he did it all while we were remote and not living in the area. We enjoy working with Richard - he's personable, always keeps our best interests in mind, kind, tenacious, and responsive. We highly recommend him and wish we could give him more than 5 stars. It's rare to find a real estate agent like Richard.

I was looking for a very specific condo to invest in. My guidelines were very difficult and strict – the investment had to reap rewards in the short and long term, that it was nice enough for me to possibly live in one day and was located in the most desirable rental area in Santa Monica. I have worked with many real estate agents before, but none compare to Richard. Richard fought very hard to get my property. He made sure my offer got accepted, which was no small feat. He was such an important aspect in my investment of this condo, and I would not have gotten the ideal investment if it was not for Richard. Thank you Richard for fighting like no other real estate agent and cooperating with my strict guidelines. You made sure I got the perfect condo for the right price. Nobody compares to Richard Eldred.

It was always my dream to live by the water. I always felt very connected to the ocean and its marine life since I was a kid. I decided I wanted to move out of my home and buy a new house by the ocean. Selling my house was easy, but buying one was not. I put many offers on many different houses, with no luck. I was stuck with relatives for 2 MONTHS before I met and hired Richard Eldred. I told him my situation, and he told me he would find me the perfect house very soon. He walked me through all the steps, he made sure I made great financial decisions along the way, and perfectly handled all the difficult decisions. I have a high-demanding job, and I could not go through all the hassles by myself. Richard kept his promise and got me a house within 10 DAYS. I am writing this from my dream home and so grateful for everything Richard did. He is kind, patient, but assertive when necessary. He is definitely the best real estate agent out there.

Before I hired Richard Eldred as my realtor in November 2021, I had been working with another realtor and looking for a home in the Pasadena/La Canada/Glendale area for over 6 months, with one failed offer after another, many missed opportunities and a lot of heartache and disappointment. My situation was becoming dire, as I had sold my previous home months before the search and I was now living in an unsuitable airbnb. Hiring Richard was one of the best decisions I ever made! I hired Richard in early November. My very first offer with him was accepted. I was in my new dream home by mid-December. Richard is nothing short of a miracle worker. Immediately upon retaining him, he became my advocate, leading the difficult process of navigating this tough sellers' market. It was because of his strategic planning, smart negotiating, assertive advocacy and magnetic personality, that my very first offer with him was accepted. He helped me through the entire process from day one until even after my move-in (he even sent me a link to turn on water, gas, electricity and get trash collection going). He recommended the most thorough and professional team of inspectors, and he left absolutely nothing to chance. Through his leadership, we became knowledgeable about every inch of my new home. For the very first time, I knew exactly what I was buying. He even kept a cool head (when I was unable) when we hit several bumps along the way in escrow, always working in my best interest and protecting me (sometimes from myself). This is the most beautiful home I could ever imagine living in, and through Richard's guidance, the process of buying the home made me love it even more. Thank you Richard! I will never buy or sell another home or real estate investment without you.

Richard was the best choice for us when buying our first home. He was amazing throughout the entire process. He listened to what we wanted, helped us narrow things down, negotiated the best deal for us and had all the right people in place for making inspections and loan processing as easy as possible. Additionally, he’s a stand up guy and a family man and I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Richard is an incredible agent and I would recommend him to anyone. Throughout the home-buying process, we always knew had our best interest at heart. As first-time home buyers, my wife and I had a lot of questions, and he was very attentive in answering everything and addressing all our concerns. He was always available and provided much-needed advice and guidance during an intense bidding war. Then after winning the bid on our home, Richard adeptly navigated us through the closing schedule and managed all our inspections and appraisals. He made what could have been an arduous and stressful process pretty painless. If it wasn’t for Richard, my wife and I would not be living in our dream home
