    • I have been working with Britt for quite some time to look for an investment property. She was always patient and gave me great advice on what to look for. Throughout the entire purchasing process, Britt made sure everything went smoothly and that I felt comfortable about the offers I submitted. Once my offer was accepted, Britt made sure I have as much leverage on the deal, even in today's strong seller's market. I also worked with Cari for a few weeks during my search, and she was every bit as patient and helpful as Britt. I would (and have) wholehearted recommend Britt and Cari.

    • Cari and Britt were our selling agents and were wonderful! At every step of the way, they were responsive, supportive, and took care of everything we hoped (and more) to make selling our house as successful as possible.From recommendations on updates to the house, to referring us to professional (and reasonably priced) helpers, to excellent staging, through easily walking us through paperwork, all while navigating our incredibly frustrating and meddling neighbors, Cari and Britt went above and beyond for us.Our house sold after one weekend on the market (full price offer) thanks to their combination of hard work, expertise, and professionalism. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

    • My husband and I like to say we are Cari's pickiest clients. Twenty-five years ago, we had a long list of requests; we had a limited budget, wanted good schools for our three young children, a good location, four bedrooms/three baths and were willing to remodel. After Cari showed us over 75 homes, we finally found the right-sized property in the Hollywood Riviera which needed work that would make it our "forever home". As our children grew, we decided we wanted to build a new "forever home" in Palos Verdes. Once again, Cari showed us many, many, many properties. She was able to negotiate a rent-back from the buyers of our current home, which helped us purchase a large tear-down property that perfectly fit our needs. Because of her patience, business contacts, honest hard work and negotiating skills, we have highly recommended Cari to many family and friends and will definitely use Cari and Britt to find an purchase our next "forever home".

    • Britt made it possible for us to secure our dream home in the south bay area with less than 20% down. She was always available throughout our house search which lasted for almost a year with 15+ offers (ouch!). She kept encouraging us despite being on the losing end over and over again. We give her our highest recommendation to anyone looking for a great realtor in the South Bay area!!

    • I reached out to Cari and Britt after finding them on Yelp and reading all of the great reviews. My husband and I were ready to find a new home and had a few different options in mind. Cari and Britt were both so wonderful to work with and had a lot of patience with our changing requirements. They were spot on with recommendations on where our offers needed to be. Don't second guess their offer guidance because they know what they are talking about! We ended up finding the perfect place or us in a short amount of time and with their help we got the house amid a very competitive market. We also decided to sell our previous home and they were amazing at helping us get the house ready to show its best and helped us get the offer we were looking for. The whole process was exciting, easy, fun, and they made it a success.

    • These 2 women are an incredible team. Their knowledge and relationships in the south bay market is vast and a definite benefit when your buying and selling your home. They understand what an important decision it is and they go above and beyond to help in any way they can. So smart, kind and reliable. Britt and Cari are the best around. I trust them 100%!!!

    • Best real estate duo in ALL OF THE SOUTHBAY period!!! I've had nothing but great experiences using Cari & Brit! These ladies are my "Go-To" A-Team! They are very knowledgeable about the southbay and surrounding areas. I was very pleased with their professionalism to say the least. Not only do they treat you like you're a VIP, they genuinely want to help people buy their future homes. I was really impressed with their ability to make the deal happen! They helped me buy what I really wanted and were ok with meeting my demands for a home. On top of everything, Cari & Brit really showed they are all about taking care of Veterans! Top notch work in my book. I will ALWAYS go to my "A-Team" for any real estate needs I may have in the future. Give them a try, you won't be let down.

    • Cari and Britt helped my wife and I with our first home purchase at the end of last year, and boy did they make it easy. Knowing nothing about the process, Britt held our hands through the whole process, made appointments with services that she was able to, and gave us numerous recommendations for others.Going into this, I was ready for the biggest headaches. Britt made sure they were non-existent!Would recommend Cari and Britt to anyone looking to purchase a home.

    • My husband and I recently bought our first home in Redondo Beach and could not be any happier! I can say without a doubt that Cari and Britt are the reason we are in our home today. The buying market is VERY competitive today and you need a local expert with a strong reputation in the area to make the process as easy as possible. When we first started looking, we did not know the area well and Cari and Britt steered us away from making some very bad offers on houses that would have been horrible choices for us. Many agents would let you make those bad decisions because they are just looking for the commission check but not Cari & Britt. They wanted what was best for us, even if that meant working for us for months longer to find the right place. When we ultimately found the house that was perfect for us, they guided us in writing the strongest offer possible. There were 11 offers on our house and Britt's offer strategies along with their long standing reputation in the industry got our offer accepted! Throughout the escrow, they were there to keep us informed and answer any and all the questions we had - one of them was always available to help us. If you are looking for an agent in the South Bay that will have your best interest at heart and give you the best chance of a winning offer, Cari & Britt are your agents!!! Could not recommend them enough!

    • Cari sold our Torrance house in Hickory Park a few years back, and helped us buy a large Rolling Hills Estates horse property. We didn't have horses, but the large lot and 4 car garage were perfect for our extra vehicles, including a RV! We even got used to the peacock noise, haha! On both transactions we felt like Cari had our best interest at heart. She asked a lot of questions, and had a great grasp on what our needs were. We since decided to sell our new property, and seek out a 1 level home. Cari & Britt did such a great job in marketing that our house had several offers. The aerial photographs taken were particularly effective. We sat at the kitchen table and reviewed the plusses and minuses of each offer, and countered a couple of them. We ended up selling for higher than the current market suggested we would. They even negotiated a rent-back to give us ample time to find our new home, which they once again found for us. We closed escrow on a charming Spanish style 1 level home last month, that has room for our RV as well. We would recommend using Cari and Britt 100%!

    • My wife and I recently bought a house through Cari and Britt. I'm not new to buying homes so for me to be so impressed with real estate agents takes a lot. The majority of our home purchase went pretty well UNTIL it came time for the sellers to rent the house back from us. They needed some extra time until their new house was ready and we agreed to letting them stay for an extra 30 days after the house closed escrow. Imagine our surprise when we went to our house and the sellers left behind many personal belongings and lots of trash. The walls were a mess and the carpets needed to be replaced because they were so filthy. My wife was pregnant and we were scheduled to host a shower in our new home a week later. This is where Cari and Britt went above and beyond for us: They had a team lined up in no time (more like a SWAT team) of vendors to come through, from painters to carpet people to a cleaning crew. Cari and Britt pulled these vendors together to get our house back in order and ready for the shower. They even helped us by suggesting a company to help unpack boxes. Cari and Britt could have easily walked away when they received their check, but they stuck with us.

    • Being new to Southern California, Cari and Britt helped us to not only find a rental home, but to also purchase our first home in the South Bay. They are very responsive and easy to get a hold of. We have two small children which causes our schedule to be pretty rigid. Cari and Britt were very flexible and available to talk/meet during off hours. They were also instrumental in helping us to negotiate our purchase price. I highly recommend them and we will continue to use them for our future needs!

    • Britt and Cari are absolutely fantastic. As first time homebuyers, my husband and I had many, many questions and Britt always had answers for us. Britt's honesty and integrity really helped alleviate my concerns (I had many) as she explained each aspect of the process thoroughly. Britt and Cari's combined experience and familiarity with Torrance made for suggestions that set our expectations accurately for each house we considered. Thanks to Britt's tenacity, we found our home within a few short months and the entire buying process went surprisingly smoothly. Additionally, both Cari and Britt have been an absolute joy to work with. Britt's kind, positive, and personable demeanor really make for a winning combination. Six months after our purchase, she's stayed in touch and still responds to my questions quickly. I am confident that our next home-buying experience will be in good hands. I strongly recommend working with Cari and Britt if you're looking for a home in the South Bay! They are the BEST!
