Testimonials
“I first heard about Rob and Take Sunset from a close friend. Rob listed my buddy's house at a price he would have happily accepted, but Take Sunset's marketing generated so much interest in the property, that a bidding war ensued and the closing price was 30% over ask. A couple of years later, Rob did the exact same thing for another friend. So, when it was time for me to sell my bungalow in Silverlake, I knew I was going to ask Rob to be my agent, and I am so glad I did.”

“We are so grateful we found your agency to sell our property. We cannot say enough about the professionalism and thoughtfulness of Justin throughout the many ordeals we had to go through in order to get an inherited house sold. Justin went above and beyond what he had to in order to help us to sell this property.”
- David D.
“Rob and his team are amazing. He listed and sold our home this spring and helped us find a great new house -- all in less than 2 months. He is knowledgable, approachable and professional. He answered every question and handled everything with grace (even when we were stressed out and emotional). We had multiple offers on our beloved first home and he helped us find the best buyers and get an incredible price. We felt understood and taken care of and like he would work with us for as long as it took to find us exactly what we wanted in our new home. Rob and Laura helped us find exactly what we were looking for. He and his team are the best of the best.”

“Rob and Mary did an excellent job selling our home quickly, despite some difficult issues with the structure. They were very accommodating of us and our tenants and were always friendly and easy to work with.”
- Maxwell H.
“Rob is the cats meow! He helped us sell our home in Koreatown last year and it was sold for above and beyond what we'd hoped for. His whole team is extremely professional, lovely to work with and do a fantastic job. The photography was so well done our home made it into LA TIMES and other real estate publications!! Rob is a seasoned pro who understands the LA real estate market, marketing homes and what people are looking for. My husband and I can't recommend him more highly.”
- Abby K.
“I have known and worked with Rob for over 5 years. He sold me my first home four years ago and just listed it for me this past year (where I profited quite well!). Both times my experience with Rob couldn't have been better. He's low key, easy-going and a no-pressure kind of person to work with, but he gets the job done and is extremely professional and knowledgeable about the Los Angeles real estate market. When it came to negotiating the sale of my home, he got me the best offer possible and at the highest price any house in the Echo Park area had received for its size at the time. I'd work with Rob again in a heartbeat. Since I was a first time home buyer, his advice was so appreciated and he never made my pretty inexperienced questions seem unimportant. Hire Rob - you won't be sorry!”
- Victoria S.
“Rob and his team are the best! We worked with Rob this past summer to sell our home in Silver Lake. He gave us great advice as to how to make the home ready (we ended up staging it as his suggestion) and prepare it for getting the best offers. We received four excellent qualified offers within the first week the house was listed. We received over 15% higher than our listing price in an all cash transaction that closed earlier than scheduled.”
- Joe R.
“Laura is an incredible agent! As first time home buyers we had no idea what to expect, and she held our hand through the whole process with professionalism, speed, and reassurance. She got us to close in 30 days during the pandemic, and stayed on top of deadlines like a boss. We loved working with her and you will too. She's who you want to work with when finding your next home!”
- Alexa K.
“Laura is one of the most kind, thoughtful, organized, thorough and professional people that I've ever met. She was a pleasure to work with, she made sure the buying process was as seamless and stress free as possible and has remained present and available for all questions and concerns since closing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER :)”
- Angela B.
“Laura was amazing. She picked up on what I was going for without a lot of guidance. We shared similarities in terms of neighborhood and home styling. Because she's even working on her own renovations, she was able to give great tips for how to fix up the properties we saw and make them my own. She navigated some tricky escrow situations with ease and poise. She always made me feel calm, looped in, and like she was on my team every step of the way. Work with her and you won't be disappointed!”
- Claire A.
“We have worked with Mary for the past several years. She has impeccable taste and will find the house you're looking for even in this crazy market. She sold our house for way over asking and helped us find our dream home immediately. During such a wild time in real estate we always felt Mary was looking out for our best interests and truly listened to us. Mary Regal is the best in the business, and we whole heartedly recommend her for all of your real estate needs!”
- Amantha W.
“Mary is amazing, if we ever sell or buy another house in our lifetime, Mary will be our agent. She is, without a doubt, such an integral reason why we were able to successfully purchase in this crazy, pandemic-driven LA market. We were actually working with another agent and had such a negative experience, we were considering pulling out of trying to buy altogether. But we found Mary, chatted with her on the phone, and felt hopeful that she would be able to help us. And she did!”
- Tiffany L.
“Mary was quite simply a dream to work with: calm, responsive, whip smart with strong knowledge of the areas we were looking in. As renters, you don't always get such a high touch experience, but Mary was our biggest champion in an admittedly arduous search process and she couldn't have been a better partner. Could not recommend Mary more and look forward to eventually working with her in the future as well.”
“We went into this process following a very difficult real estate endeavor. Rob was cool, calm and collected. He is real professional who clearly loves his work. He worked his ass off, kept us calm and just handled everything. We got significantly more money than we listed the home for and Rob had great advice throughout the negotiating process. I highly recommend Rob and would absolutely use him again.”
- Taylor G.
“Rob is the best real estate agent I've ever worked with (and I've bought and sold a lot of houses). He is thorough, organized, a wise negotiator, VERY knowledgeable about Silver Lake, and a genuinely kind and thoughtful person. I discovered him by googling online and finding that he had by far the most sales and the highest reviews of anyone. I interviewed him along with several other agents, but there was no contest.”
- Amos B.
“Buying a house with Rob is like consulting a friend you trust implicitly, who knows a lot more than you do, but isn't a jerk about it. He's as cool a cucumber as it gets - he leads you through the truly terrifying process of buying a house like he's leading a meditation class… If you're buying or selling a house on the Eastside, there's no one better.”
-Jessie G.
“Rob is amazing. We were looking to buy in Silverlake, and as first time homebuyers we had no idea what we were doing or what to expect. Rob guided us through the process and was quick to answer all of our questions. He sent us the place we ended up buying the day it went on the market, and we were able to snatch it up! He gave us great advice, and ensured that everything went smoothly.
We will most definitely be using Rob with our future home sales and purchases!”
-Nicole S.
“Rob was amazing to work with throughout the entire selling process. Not only did he price the house to sell, we also sold way above our asking price and closed within 3 weeks of putting it on the market. I couldn't be happier with my experience with him and I recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in LA. Thanks again Rob!”
-Robert F.
“I can't say enough great things about Rob. He's extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and most importantly, super nice. He knows NELA like the back of his hand and loves mid century architecture. We never felt any pressure from him to do things a certain way. He was able to get our house sold really fast and for over asking price. I can't recommend Rob enough!”
-Rich K.
“We have had quite the journey with Rob. It took us almost a year to find our home and he was with us every step of the way, up to Studio City, over to Silver Lake and back to Los Feliz. Rob was an excellent guide for a first-time home buyer in LA. We truly appreciated his real estate expertise and how responsive he was with regards to all of our questions, even after the close of our home. Having his assistant Mary's help during the closing process was priceless. We look forward to working with Rob in the future when the time is right to sell and buy again. We would recommend Rob for anyone looking to join the adventure of looking for a home in LA.”
-Eileen H.
“Laura is the best!!! We just closed my first house during the pandemic and I truly believe this would not have happened if wasn't for Laura. She made the whole process go smoothly and put me at ease every step of the way. She has a wonderful rapport with people, is extremely professional and just a joy to work with! If you work with Laura, she WILL help you accomplish your dreams. I couldn't be happier with my experience!!”

“Laura did an EXCELLENT job helping me find and purchase a house in Eagle Rock. She was patient and work diligently to ensure I got a great deal and everything was painless. We closed on the house in 21 Days, which was a rush for her but not a problem at all. Highly recommended if you like being stress-free during an otherwise stressful situation. I probably won't buy a house again for a long time but I will definitely call her when the time comes!”
-Robert F.
“Laura is amazing. Knowledgeable, savvy, and patient. The last point being so important as a first time buyer. She helped me find a beautiful mid century modern condo in Pasadena. Entering into the LA market was stressful, but Laura's expertise and experience truly paid off and help me cinch the winning offer, for which I'm so grateful.”
-Mimi Z.
“Despite being out of state, COVID restrictions and a wild west real estate market that threw everything it could at us, Mary was incredibly dedicated to helping us first time home buyers find exactly what we needed. She helped us build the team that gave us the competitive edge when we finally found the right place and was incredibly patient in teaching us about home buying and the area. Most importantly, I've heard so many horror stories about escrow and she helped us get in and through seamlessly in what I think is record time. Working with Mary made the whole wild experience of buying a home in Los Angeles in a Pandemic as simple as humanly possible. Would definitely use her again!”
-Alison P.
“Mary is the best! We spent 6 months trying to navigate the market on our own and when we met Mary and started working with her we learned so much about how to navigate the process and began competing much more successfully win offers. The market is very competitive, way more so than we originally anticipated, and you definitely need a savvy and respected agent like Mary working on your side. Plus she has great taste and is fun to hang out with!!! We closed last month on a duplex in Echo Park that is absolutely ideal for us. We're looking forward to working with her again in the future.”
-Ellen F.
“As a first time home buyer, I was completely overwhelmed by the entire process that I did not even know where to even start. That changed when I first spoke with Mary. She didn't hesitate one bit to answer all of my questions. But my favorite reason for working with Mary wast that she was so incredibly easy to reach. Text message or phone call, she was available at any given moment or would reply via text message if she was busy. As a first time buyer, or any buyer/seller, this was so comforting just knowing that your agent was reliable, responsive, and fast! Which brings me to the next reason you should have Mary as your agent. She got things DONE. We went through many revisions due to inspections, appraisals, and loan contingencies and she always provided those revisions and updates asap to give us the most time to complete other tasks. If it wasn't for Mary, we seriously would not have had the home we have today.”
-James J.
“We worked with Mary to sell our home in Burbank, and we couldn't have been happier. Not only was she very professional and experienced, she made us feel comfortable and was really easy to work with. The entire process was effortless, as she had the best guidance for how to approach every situation. We ended up selling our home for significantly more than we listed it for, and we truly believe it was largely due to the care and effort Mary put into helping us get our property ready to go to market. She genuinely took our needs to heart, and found the best way to elevate them to more than what we could have done on our own. When it came to fielding offers and reviewing the final steps before entering escrow, she had the right perspective for how to engage each particular offer and potential deal. If we could sell again, we'd use her in a heartbeat. We really wouldn't have been able to have such a successful sale of our home without her.”
-Kyle P.
“Mary was recommended to me by close friends whose judgement I trust. So I was not surprised when she turned out to be fantastic. I was a first time home buyer. An opportunity to purchase a place near friends came up suddenly so I was underprepared and had lots of questions and needed to be walked through each step of the process - the offer, the inspections, and closing Escrow . Mary was great about fielding all of of my questions and concerns. She had great recommendations for people to pull permits on the place and do various inspections. She was responsive and responsible and just generally good to work with. Thank you, Mary!”
-Carlin W.
“"If Wired married Dwell and had a Realtor baby, it would be Matt Morgus. We've bought and sold previous homes, but our experience with Matt as our listing agent blew everyone else we've worked with away. His calm and professional demeanor combined with his tech-savvy and creative approach sold our house in 2 weeks. Whether buying or selling, skip the others and go straight to Matt."
- Kirsten L.
“Matt helped me buy my condo 5 years ago and just recently sold it. He is a very knowledgeable agent, and he has the best sales style. Low pressure, great communication, and really helpful. The process of buying (and selling) a condo can be so stressful, but Matt helped every step along the way, answered all my questions, and took care of all the back and forth. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
- Colleen C.
“I naturally went with Matt again when it was time to sell. Through it all he was there to help decide when to list and at what price, photography, staging, open houses, and was always a quick text or phone call away. After one broker open and one public open house, we had three interested parties. Ultimately we decided on a quick, all-cash buyer and everything closed smoothly within 2 weeks, and I have Matt to thank for that. Buying, selling, the guy will get it done.”
- Josh S.
“Can't say enough good things about Matt. He was an invaluable asset for my wife and me as we purchased our first home. He knows the ins and outs of the process and is able to present them to you in easy-to-understand ways--he's incredibly knowledgeable about the market as well. Lastly, I really appreciated Matt's love and passion for real estate/architecture/historical neighborhoods. He loves what he does. And it shows in his work and dedication. I look forward to working with him in the future.”
- Brian F.
“Matt helped me buy a house two years ago in Mt. Washington. As everyone knows, buying a home in LA can be a high pressure, high stakes ordeal to a first time home buyer. Matt was extremely patient and walked me through the process thoroughly. He knows a great deal about the NELA area, design, renovation, landscaping, etc... and had no problems answering any of the million questions I had for him. BIG THUMBS UP! When we sell our home, we'll be sure to use Matt again as our agent!”
- Rich K.
“Justin helped our family find and close on our first home in an extremely competitive market, and held our hand through a process that we had absolutely not experience in or understanding of. He was available to us whenever we needed him, he explained each step of the process, and most importantly we trusted him with the most important purchase of our lives. He was someone who we wanted to spend time with too, which matters! His opinion mattered a great deal to us, and he is extremely knowledgable and professional. It's not hyperbole to say that we wouldn't have our home without Justin. We will never forget his role in making our dreams come true for our family. I'd work with him again in a heartbeat, and have recommended him far and wide. Count yourself lucky if you have the chance to work with him.”
- Britta C.
“Justin was an absolute pleasure to work with. Successful, impactful , interactive open houses and viewings got us the # we were looking for. No stress at all. Seamless process from start to finish working with Justin (and Take Sunset).”
- Matt A.
“Working with Justin was such a breeze. We looked at a lot of properties together. He was super responsive, very knowledgeable about the local market, and resourceful. He provided excellent guidance during the property selection and negotiating phases. He was very thorough during the home inspection phase, which was very important to us. He also gave us some great contractor referrals after the closing. We trust him very much. Overall he's just a great partner to have in your corner when purchasing a home.”
- Sol S.
"I was extremely impressed by how kind and patient Justin was. He tirelessly showed us places and never made us feel pressured, no matter how long the process took. As a first time buyer, I was so thankful that he put in extra work to help us navigate daunting HOA documents and the added stress of buying into a condo building. On top of that, he and his team (Take Sunset) also have such an incredible eye for architecture and design. I can't wait to have him list our place in a few years when we are ready to sell!"
- Dani B.
"Justin helped us with the purchase of our first family home after a long search in an incredibly competitive market. We absolutely loved working with him and are confident we wouldn't have been able to get the home we did without his expertise. After an unsuccessful experience with a different agency, we made the switch to Justin and the Take Sunset team and are so glad we did. Aside from his knowledge and professionalism, Justin was a joy to work with, was always reachable, and he answered all of our first-time-buyer questions with calm guidance. If and when we ever return to the home buying (and selling!) market, it's Justin and Take Sunset that we'll return to."
- Andi R.
"My partner Matt and I really enjoyed working with Justin! We had a very limited time frame to purchase due to relocating and Justin and the entire Take Sunset team were so quick to accommodate us and worked diligently to meet our needs. As first time home buyers our questions were endless, but Justin was thoughtful, thorough and always reassured us during our house hunt. We were extremely lucky that our 3rd offer was accepted but I have no doubt we would still be looking if we did not have Justin's guidance, advice and expertise. We still keep in touch and are sending photos of our renovations, it's really rewarding to continue our journey with Justin and the Take Sunset team still fully invested in our home and future!"
