  • Barry listed and sold my home

      Barry is the perfect partner when you navigate the emotional experience of buying or selling a house. He's calm, fair, honest and straightforward. He negotiates with integrity and with a direct approach to the truth. He truly wants his client to be happy and satisfied and will take as much time as required to make sure you are in the perfect house. I have worked with a lot of agents over the years and can recommend Barry strongly and without hesitation."

    • Barry listed and sold my home

        I have nothing but postive things to say about Barry Gray. Not only is he a lovely human, but he is incredibly professional. Fair, fast, and honest - it's always a pleasure working with him. He is the BEST!!!

      • Barry helped me buy a home

          Barry made us realize that a home we might never have looked at (it needed work; the price a little steep; odd curb appeal) was THE house for us. We are grateful to him every morning when we wake up in our beloved home.

        • Barry listed and sold my home

            I have 15 years of professional experience in international public relations and film production, yet Barry Gray, as my real estate agent, has enriched my own understanding and appreciation for a process that - just like in my own field - involves a group of individuals wanting to concur on a deal. He's by far the most brilliant realtor I've ever came across, providing me with perfectly detailed information and advise as well as the confidence I needed in order to commit to a home. His sensible and strategic approach to the real-estate marketplace, his extremely rich knowledge of Los Angeles as well as his passion for architecture make of Barry Gray an incomparably successful shopping partner for anybody novice or already experienced with the exciting yet challenging process of buying or selling property. Plus, Barry is a lot of fun and has great humor ... which is a huge plus for me personally who's always looking to make each experience in life as enjoyable as possible. By all means, I highly recommend Barry Gray. He's the best of the best.

          • Barry was more than just our Real Estate agent, he was a true consultant to my wife and I through the home selling process. He helped us sell our home above list price with multiple offers during the first week on the market. Professional, trustworthy and knowledgeable about the market are the words I would best describe Barry. He went above and beyond to help with any and all aspects of this emotional and time consuming process.

          • About you I can only say how happy I am that I met you and know you now and will always. Thank you so much for your insights, your wonderfully subtle ways of saying, 'Hey Suzanne and Don, dont do that, do this, or try this. It might work better.' You should have been a doctor, your bedside manner impeccable. But realtors really need thatfor people like me. Thanks for all you have done.

          • Mr. Barry Gray represented us as sellers broker and successfully sold our architectural housethis year amidst a dismally difficult market. Throughout the process, Barry had performed histasks extremely professionally and diligently, and had always been there for us. We would gladlyrecommend him to anyone with no hesitation.In addition to his utmost professionalism and prolific resources, what impresses us most aboutBarry is his willingness to go all the way out to take care of our concerns and needs. He did itwith lots of personal touch. Through his initiative, our house was made L.A. Times Home of theWeek and received tremendous exposure in the marketplace. When we were concerned aboutthe market downturn, he came up with various innovative ideas and solutions, but never pushedus into making any compromising decisions. At the same time, he was a tough and effectivenegotiator (we wouldnt want to be on the other side of table negotiating with him) and brought usthe best deal he could.Whoever has Barry representing him or her would be lucky in todays market, as he is the best.

          • Barry, I enjoyed working with you and appreciate everything you did for me... You go above and beyond what could be expected of any Realtor in helping me sell my house.

          • Su and I are writing to express what a pleasure it is have Barry Grey as our real estate agent. Barry has represented us in both the sale and purchase of our homes. Su and I both credit Barry with getting what we were looking for when buying and even more importantly finding the right buyers for what we were had made and were selling. There is calmness about Barrys approach to his work that creates a smooth, stress-free, experience and makes the thought of working with any other agent nearly impossible.

          • Barry Gray helped us sell our home in an extremely difficult market. He guided us through the process with professionalism and confidence and got is sold for a higher price than anything else in the neighborhood. It was always comforting to have Barry on our side and we look forward to working with him on future real estate deals.

            - Kevin and Orit Edelman, Sellers
          • My experience with Barry was outstanding! Thoughtful preparation of the property for sale including interior and exterior contractor arrangements and interior staging. House sold quickly at a price over my expectation, very smooth escrow. Will continue to use his services in the future -- thanks Barry!

            - Jason Chang, Seller
          • Unique homes require a vision to build and also a vision to sell. Barry Gray understood and represented our house and property very well. They were confident throughout the selling process which involved a complex three-tiered contingency deal. Their communication was excellent; they cleared our needs first before lifting contingencies and closing. They enabled us to transition to our new home smoothly and quickly.

          • Last summer, when my wife and I were looking for our first home, we were lucky enough to have had Barry recommended to us. He isn't only a hard working, knowledgable and dedicated real estate agent, but he is also one of the friendliest and caring people you will ever meet. Now, typing this review from the comfort of my DREAM home that he helped us find, I can't imagine going through the intense process of buying a house (with a first child born 3 days for our offer being accepted!) with anyone else.Here is a small example of how great Barry is. The previous owner stripped the kitchen of all appliances, including the stove. Barry, having seen our vintage stove that we loved when he came to visit our apartment, offered us his own stove... for free. And then payed for the handyman to deliver and install the stove, as well as payed for al the parts he needed!Ultimately I feel like we are the ones who will always owe Barry a debt of gratitude for everything he did for us. You are the best Barry! Thank you

          • Barry did an amazing job. He listed both my mother's house and a 4-plex in North Hollywood. There were special challenges since my mother now lives in the Sacramento area and is blind. There were other complexities too, since the properties were in a trust. Barry listed, sold, and closed the deals in optimum time.Great job Barry! Thank you!

          • I cannot recommend Barry highly enough! He was my agent when I sold my home. Clearly selling one's own home is not easy. Barry's expertise in homes of architectural interest, as welll as his caring for his clients, made the process so easy and straightforward. I never felt pressured during the negotiation process. I made my own decisions supported by his recommendations. I always felt I could ask questions during the process, and Barry got back to me right away with clear answers or explanations. Barry also recommended an excellent stager whose design contributed significantly.
