EXCELLENT Based on 11 reviews Posted on Carol DTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was apprehensive helping my brother sell his inherited property long distance. David was very helpful and understood our situation with kindness and professionalism. He went above and beyond what the average realtor would do for us. Communication was excellent and he kept us informed all along in the process. We are very happy.Posted on Tam BuiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t be happier with the job my agent, David Messiah, did selling my rental property. There were many challenges during the sale of the property due to strict rent controlled laws/regulations in the City of Los Angeles. Fortunately, David is extremely knowledgeable in this area. From start to finish, he was professional, reliable, patient, and clearly very committed to getting the best possible outcome. He worked hard, stayed on top of everything, and always made sure I felt informed and confident. The results exceeded my expectations, and I’m very grateful for his support. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.Posted on Tom McMurrayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the pleasure of working with David through mutual clients I’ve been helping for over five years. These clients were preapproved long ago, worked with multiple agents, submitted countless offers, and were frankly spinning their wheels…until they met David. David is the consummate professional. His expertise, negotiation skills, and steady patience were exactly what they needed to finally cross the finish line. Without him, I truly believe they’d still be searching for a home. He brought the focus, strategy, and guidance that made the difference. Grateful our paths crossed and looking forward to working together again.Posted on Elle GTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David represented me on a multifamily deal in Santa Monica. I’ve known David for 3 years through his informative newsletters. He actually sourced the deal for me. From start to finish, David was professional, responsive, and reliable. His market knowledge was also incredibly helpful when it came to pricing and location. I trusted David to tap into his resources, handle the inspections, and gather quotes during the due diligence period and he delivered. He even negotiated a price reduction based on our findings during escrow, which made a big difference. If you’re buying or selling in LA, definitely reach out to David. He is the best!Posted on Bing ShengTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Found great tenants for my rental unit quickly, and efficiently handled all the transactional logistics.Posted on Teresa Reynolds BatesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David has been the ultimate professional in selling our income property. Due to a death in the family, David was respectful and worked tirelessly on selling the building in a tough market. His determination to get the best deal along with helping the family navigate through the maze of requirements was so appreciated. He is a fabulous agent.Posted on Linda ReynoldsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our 4 unit apartment just sold thanks to David Messiah.
