If I could give Angela Bond 10 stars, I would. I could not have found a kinder or more professional agent to represent me. Almost four years ago, she helped me sell my duplex in Los Angeles to move to Ohio to take care of my mother. That was a difficult decision, but she left me with such an overall positive experience, that I called on her again when I decided a year ago to move back to LA. This time was a more challenging situation for both of us because I was living 2000 miles away, and the real estate market was much more expensive and just as competitive. Angela sent me daily listings and even though I was often discouraged by my prospects, she remained upbeat and positive about my chances of finding a desirable property in my price range. She supported me through several disappointing experiences of making offers on properties that would have stretched my budget too far (which w…

If I could give Angela Bond 10 stars, I would. I could not have found a kinder or more professional agent to represent me. Almost four years ago, she helped me sell my duplex in Los Angeles to move to Ohio to take care of my mother.

This time was a more challenging situation for both of us because I was living 2000 miles away, and the real estate market was much more expensive and just as competitive. Angela sent me daily listings and even though I was often discouraged by my prospects, she remained upbeat and positive about my chances of finding a desirable property in my price range. She supported me through several disappointing experiences of making offers on properties that would have stretched my budget too far (which was my idea, not hers). She eventually guided me back to a more affordable community she had had in mind for me from the very beginning of my search. I was finally ready to listen, flew out to LA, and fell in love with a beautiful light-filled condo with private outdoor spaces located on 65 acres of parkland, all within my budget! Angela's talents go far beyond her exceptional professionalism in every detail of her job and caring for the interests of her clients. She is a great listener and incredibly intuitive and insightful. I felt she understood my unique situation, my priorities, my style and even the more psychological aspects of purchasing a property. She has a great eye for design and gave me so many great ideas to maximize the use of my new space. She was always available to chat about any of my concerns, no matter how small. What more can I say? I can't wait to have her and her husband over (he helped too) for the happy housewarming!

Right after my husband and I had our first face-to-face interaction with Angela, he turned to me and said, "I'm not sure if that house was right for us, but we're totally sticking with her. SHE IS AMAZING." And it's true -- it's all true. Angela was glowingly recommended to us by an acquaintance, and between that and her Yelp reviews, my expectations were sky high. After only five minutes chatting with her, I knew she'd be everything that was promised. This was our first time working with a realtor to buy a property, and I can't imagine it would have been better with anyone else: Angela was enthusiastic, detailed, fun, knowledgable, resourceful, and thorough. She knew the areas we were looking in really well. When we added a neighborhood or two to our search that she wasn't as familiar with, she was honest with us about it, and then ended up researching those areas until she could tell…

This was our first time working with a realtor to buy a property, and I can't imagine it would have been better with anyone else: Angela was enthusiastic, detailed, fun, knowledgable, resourceful, and thorough. She knew the areas we were looking in really well. When we added a neighborhood or two to our search that she wasn't as familiar with, she was honest with us about it, and then ended up researching those areas until she could tell us anything we needed to know about them. When we found our house and went through the offer and inspection processes, that's when I found Angela to be of most value -- this part's not fun at all, and frankly a bit of a letdown after the excitement of house-hunting. But even though our enthusiasm waned a bit, hers didn't at all, and she found us all the right professionals to conduct inspections, and clearly laid out all the details of the offer/counter-offer process until we were happy. I'd HIGHLY recommend Angela to anyone who's looking to buy or sell a house -- she's an absolute gem, and I can't see us ever working with anyone else! PS I feel like this shouldn't matter, but it does to me: Angela is Very Charmingly English, to the point where I can hear her accent when she emails us. Love it! PPS Did you know (I didn't until recently!) that the property buyers usually don't have to pay their agent? Payment of both agents' commissions is typically done by the property seller, as laid out in the contract. Just a little bonus knowledge for you!

After talking to several realtors, Angela impressed me with her thoroughness and professionalism in our first meeting, imbuing me with confidence to trust my purchase in her hands. Before we even started looking at properties, Angela really took the time to talk through with me my expectations, concerns, timeline, wants, needs, and requirements. She tackled my questions directly and made sure to address my concerns, letting me know when expectations were unrealistic, or where considerations I overlooked may warrant a second look. Once we started viewing properties, Angela set up a brisk schedule that allowed us to efficiently go through properties, always taking the time to talk through concerns, point out issues, or explain strengths and weaknesses to each property. She was also very willing to express her opinion on properties when asked, and was honest about what she thought was nec…

She was also very willing to express her opinion on properties when asked, and was honest about what she thought was necessary or unnecessary. Her insight was very valuable in helping me shape my own assessment. Once we were in the position to bid, Angela was extremely responsive to questions and concerns, and worked diligently to put my offer together. Angela was also extremely helpful in garnering a wealth of information to help formulate a strong bid, and gave excellent insight into the mindset of the seller to help negotiate from a position of strength. Throughout escrow and the closing process, Angela was wonderful in lining up inspections, making sure everything moved at a fast clip, and all the gears functioned properly. Angela was in contact with everyone in the escrow process and helped add pressure wherever it was needed so that the closing process was painless and efficient. I have no doubt that I will come back to Angela when the time comes for me to need an agent again.
