Joel Simon

We had an excellent experience working with Joel and his team. They helped us through a complex rental as well as purchasing our new home. He and Sharona are personable and knowledgeable. We definitely recommend him to others looking for a realtor.

As an out of town buyer, the team was considerate of our time and made each visit to the local area worthwhile. There was no undue pressure or false sense of urgency in the buying process, and Joel and his team provided sound feedback to help us in the negotiations. Even as we had questions about the market and adjacent markets that weren't highly relevant, like zoning and transportation questions, the team patiently did the research and answered our questions.

Joel helped us buy and sell a home. What he does best is help us understand our options. He is also a consultant for questions that we needed to ask so that we can make the right decisions on many aspects of the process.

Joel was great throughout the whole purchase process. He was very patient with our needs and wants in a home. He was always able to meet with us or send his associate Tommy to meet with us who was great as well. Joel answered any questions we had and explained many things in the real estate market we were unfamiliar with. He always has a great attitude and is dedicated to his work and as well as his family. My wife and I highly recommend Joel Simon.

Anybody can be a realtor, but not everybody can get the house you want with little inventory. Joel can. We bid on a bank owned home we really wanted and so did many others. Because of Joel's experience, due diligence and capacity to connect and cooperate with the sellers in a respectful way, we obtained an advantage and got the house. Joel is knowledgable, calm, knows the comps, is down to earth, honest and always available. We greatly benefitted from his negotiating skills and sound advice. If we ever move again, Joel will be our first choice realtor.

Joel is a great real estate agent. He's honest and trustworthy and gets along with everyone. He knows how to handle people and understands how to keep everyone calm and focused on the end result. Joel knows his craft - he understands how a real estate transaction should work and does his best to ensure that the deal gets done to everyone's satisfaction. I would highly recommend Joel to any potential buyer/seller who's looking for a sharp, hard working agent.

Extremely honest, knowledgable and professional. He went above and beyond. We moved out of state and he continues to help us with repairs and items that probably other agents would not be willing to help with. He did great with the negotiations and he even helped us identify and schedule companies to do necessary repairs, etc. He was patient and kind with our barking dogs. He had a team of professionals to help take pictures and stand in when he wasn't available. He even worked hard for us in negotiations while he was on vacation. His character is strong, he is laid back and friendly, yet efficient. Many other agents in the past kept us in the dark at times, but with Joel we always felt fully informed and up to date. I highly recommend Joel. And he is an expert in the Calabasas market and he lives there as well.

Joel was referred to us by our realtor when we started looking for a house outside of the area she covers. We knew nothing about him, really, but we took a chance. He did a GREAT job and we would happily refer him. The words that come to mind most are "on-the-ball". We were buying in a time when the inventory was sparse and there were multiple offers on every worthwhile property. We watched the listings religiously. Many times, as soon as one came on the market that we were interested in seeing, Joel called us to set up a viewing before we could call him because he knew our taste and knew we would want to see it. He didn't do what some realtors do and push us to go see houses that he knew were not the right fit. He was extremely patient and helped us to wait for the right house. He was always quick to respond to calls, texts, and emails.When we finally found the right house, Joel was very good at following up and making sure all the details of escrow were handled efficiently.It was a pleasure to work with Joel. Nice guy, professional, knowledgable and very proficient.

Joel assisted us in both buying our new home and selling our old home. Joel, first helped us find and buy just the right house, at the right price. Then, Joel helped us sell our home quickly and easily at an excellant price. His professionalism was top notch. His ability to patiently work with us and negotiate with other real estate agents was outstanding. If we ever buy or sell another property, we will definitely work with Joel Simon. We highly recommend him to all my friends and family.

Joel Simon is a true professional! He is knowledgable and most helpful. It was a joy to work with him when selling my rental home. He negotiated a fair price and followed through with all the details. He is extremely respected by his fellow agents. I highly recommend Joel Simon.

Joel Simon has follow through. He works diligently towards the end goal while keeping in mind what the client wants. He is great at keeping clients informed at all times. His background and expertise in property located in the West San Fernando Valley and Conejo Valley provides him the tools to engage in competitive pricing. I found his rapport building skills provides for long lasting relationships. Joel Simon is one of a kind and I am glad I had the opportunity to work with him.

Joel is a great realtor because he's fun to house shop with--he really listens to what you want, looks for great options, and makes all of those hours in the car seem like fun. But he also can be tough when he's making an offer or dealing with the mortgage companies or escrow. He goes to bat for you when necessary while still being a joy to be with as you go through the journey. I can't imagine a better combination of skills. He's not only a great professional he's also a friend.
