Client Reviews
From local home sellers & buyers

When it comes time to select a real estate agent in the South Bay, George Fotion should be your first choice. Throughout the process George was friendly, knowledgeable, and hands-on, meeting with us when needed and openly communicating at each step. His ability to analyze the area housing “Comps” and strategize on how set the list price were spot-on. Together we determined that listing “as-is” was the best approach for this specific property. George provided terrific resources to handle property photography, property clean-out and even a moving crew. Having dealt with many agents on numerous properties in the past, integrity and responsiveness are key traits we look for . . . George possesses both of these. George’s efforts yielded multiple offers within a few days. Clearly the best real estate professional we have ever worked with.

George was able to find a buyer for our vacant land in RPV. He's a very knowledgeable realtor in the South Bay. Knows the history of the area. Great communication, quick to respond and a real problem solver. Selling raw land anywhere is challenging but George was able to get the deal done. He put together a strong marketing plan and hit the ground running to find us a buyer. If you're looking for someone who has the years of experience in the industry and area....George is your man.

We reached out to various agents in the South Bay (Palos Verdes) in our search for a home in the area. George was the most responsive, energetic and passionate. So, we hit it off. He patiently educated us the market conditions in the area, and it did not take long before he understood our parameters as he showed us various homes we were interested in. Of course, he was responsive via texts, calls and emails as we discussed the homes visited. At no point during the process that we felt pressured to enter into contract. He even advised us against a home that we liked because he felt obligated in letting us know the lack of comps to support the listed price in the specific neighborhood.Fast forward a month or so later, we regrouped with George once we identified a target. He was quick in providing a very candid assessment of the pros and cons, and gave us his gut valuation of the home. He also used web analytics from an in-house database of unique user views of the property, and incorporated that into his negotiation tool on our behalf during the contract process. He consistently pushed the bank and appraiser to meet the deadlines for closing. It is worth emphasizing that we came out of the process trusting George ever more in his integrity and diligence.

Excellent service , quick response ,Very professional , explained all steps in detail , and we sold successfully , I will recommend George to all My friends

I am writing this review to communicate how amazing of a job George did for my parents in helping them sell their house in Rancho Palos Verdes (Just closed the sale last week). I researched a lot of brokers/agents for my parents, but what drew me to contact George was the significant number of reviews from people in the same situation as me-elderly parents that were selling their home on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Those reviews were glowing and after working with George I can definitely see why. From day one, George has been the knowledgeable, ethical professional my parents needed to help them with their sale. His deep history of living and working on the Palos Verdes Peninsula provides him with a depth of understanding of the local housing market I did not find in any of the multiple other agents/Brokers that I interviewed. In addition, his understanding of the broader economic trends, the psychology of buyers and sellers, and his ability to communicate this information in a way and everyday person can understand were huge plusses. I can’t say this enough, George’s communication skills are amazing-we always felt informed every step of the way, and he truly forms a partnership with his clients, ensuring they always feel heard. To top it off, his marketing strategy was amazing, producing a huge volume of showings and multiple offers to buy my parent’s property. This review wouldn’t be complete without talking about how great of a negotiator George is. Throughout this process George’s ability to negotiate with Agents and their buyers is something that really wowed my parents and I. To sum it up, from the day my parents signed their listing agreement to the day their escrow closed George had our best interests in heart and delivered amazing service. I would highly recommend George Fotion as a real estate broker for all your real estate needs.

I highly recommend George Fotion for anyone looking for a real estate agent. He was professional, always responsive to calls and emails, and extremely knowledgeable of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. We had an issue that arose from the inspection. He took the reins and expertly guided us through a challenging escrow. He went above and beyond to keep the buyer alive and get the property sold.

I can't say enough nice things about George and his efforts to help us sell our parent's home. He was the consummate professional and worked hard to make sure our needs were taken care of quickly and efficiently. He was very patient with all of our questions and timely in his responses to even the most novice of questions. His advice was spot on and he worked incredibly hard to make sure everything was completed in the end. We trusted him completely and were well-rewarded in the end. I thank him so much and most highly recommend him.

We couldn't have been happier with George's services. His responsiveness was unbelievable. He not only answered all of our questions lightening quick, but he was always 3 steps ahead of us, seeing and addressing things before we even thought of them. He is eminently knowledgeable about not only the process, but the market too. That said, he also was willing to listen to us and talk through approach on things. He also worked extremely hard to get us a great deal. And he DID! Highest recommendation possible!

George Fotion has a soul. His advice, guidance, expertise is driven solely by what is in the best interest of his client, and never his own. He is a man who can be trusted, who honors his every word, and who is willing to dig in and go the extra distance. I never intended to sell my once in a lifetime luxury estate on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, but George approached me with an opportunity i could not refuse, and it played out exactly as he thought it would- while making the process seamless, painless, and effortless on my part- all while i was living on the east coast. On a scale of 1-10, George Fotion crushes the scale, sets the new standard, and exceeds all expectation. thank you George for everything you did for me.
