R I N G I N G T E S T I M O N I A LS Tina was incredibly professional in dealing with all parties involved in the sale of my home, prospective buyers included. Her attention to detail is remarkable and her responsiveness is spot-on. She has a very calming, supportive and warm approach which was very much appreciated in this stressful real estate market. She has a flawless reputation for being highly competent, ethical and easy to work with. Her opinions are well founded; I relied on her heavily for counsel, but was also very respectful of my opinions. She’s a true pro - highly recommend her wherever you are and whether you’re buying or selling!
- Jean Sinatra
Houston strikes again! Tina first helped me purchase my home 14 years ago and she returned for the sale of it with the same guidance and professionalism she provided so long ago. In fact, in the past 2 years, this is the second property sold in our family with Tina as our real estate maven. I can honestly say that she continually delivers, first class service, time and time again. For anyone buying or selling a home, for the first time or for the fourth time, let Tina put her talents to work for you. Her understanding of the market and experience in the industry makes the entire process a smooth and less arduous one. Not only is Tina a very dear friend but she will forever be our family Realtor®.
- Ron Johnson
We were first time home buyers and didn’t know anything about the process. Tina Houston helped us every step of the way. She was there to answer any questions that we had right away (and we had a lot of questions). From house hunting to signing papers, Tina Houston made what could have been a stressful process, quick and easy. We are so happy that she was with us throughout the whole experience and will definitely recommend her to our friends and family.
-Geraldine & Carson Araula
Tina was an great negotiator, and was able to understand our needs, she never made us feel pushed to take a decision, but her advices helped us tremendously to choose the right home. We would not hesitate to recommend Tina because she is great at what she does as a Real Estate Agent, experience people it’s what we need when we are investing buying a home, and her advice was very important to us.
- Paula & Sang Lee
We were referred to Tina through my wife’s cousin who is a Real Estate Broker for Dilbeck in Arcadia, CA. Tina stayed with us and kept us informed of the buyers situation with respect to getting a loan. We decided to stay with the original buyers even though we had a few sound back-up offers, even when they had to find another lender in order to qualify for a loan to purchase our property. It turned into a long and frustrating ordeal, but eventually our patience paid off and the buyers were able to secure the loan they needed and the home was sold! Tina was professional and thorough in just about every detail. When I had questions she responded in a timely and courteous manner, and I always felt she knew the situation/problem we faced even though I didn’t. - Maryann & Robin Weiland After dealing with four Realtors® with my four previous homes and after being completely underwhelmed by their performance and how well they were paid to “under perform”, I was pretty set on selling my prime area townhouse in Studio City - “By Owner”. A friend suggested that I at least speak to Tina who had sold him his house, and several of his friends whom had used her in both selling and purchasing their properties, I agreed., and I am so glad I did.Tina was first and foremost, extremely professional. She also made me feel very comfortable from our first meeting. An under performer she was not. I would rather say she was beyond an over performer in every way. I could go on and on but let me just say, Tina went way and above my expectations as a realtor and she has a client for life. I wouldn’t consider using any another Realtor® and I would highly recommend her to all my colleagues, friends and family.
