“Mr. Ruben Perez was my agent as a first-time home buyer in Los Angeles. He was attentive and thorough in correctly completing all the involved paperwork (which would have been quite confusing without his utmost care in patiently explaining every single process and correspondence). He was diligent and hardworking, and went out of his way to make the process run smoothly and intercepted all possible hassles with the utmost professionalism. I highly recommend him to whomever wants to have property represented.”
