“We wanted to share our recent experience working with Rae Lord to find a home in the South Bay area. Given that our move was based on a new job opportunity on the West Coast and that we resided on the East Coast, one would assume that the home buying process would be quite a headache for us. However, we really don’t know how much smoother it could have gone, and we have Rae to thank for that.

With very little notice, Rae fit us into her schedule to view homes and to help explain neighborhoods. From offer through escrow, Rae always seemed to have our best interests in mind and helped guide us through the process with such honest and straightforward feedback, all while remaining professional and respectful. We also really appreciated how quick Rae was to respond to any of our questions.

With inspections done while we were literally on the other side of the country, Rae was amazing at supervising the process and immediately lining up any supplemental specialist inspections that needed to be completed. Even before receiving written reports, Rae had the inspectors on the phone with us to provide their opinions. To top it off, after we had successfully purchased our home, Rae even offered to coordinate home repairs for us prior to our move-in.

We were really dreading the home buying process in such a seller’s market, but we were so lucky to work with Rae and had such a positive experience throughout the whole process. We are so excited about our new home and highly recommend Rae to anyone searching for a home in the South Bay area!”

“I would highly recommend Rae Lord for your residential real estate needs. We were selling a 3-bedroom, 3-bath house in Torrance. Rae quickly mobilized a strategy to do a market analysis to arrive at a sales price, ready the house with necessary spruce up and repairs, and list the property effectively. The result was a quick sale for top dollar. Throughout the process, Rae kept us informed and was readily accessible if we had questions. She and her team are professional and easy to work with. If you want results without the hassle, Rae Lord is an outstanding results-oriented professional.”

“Our recent experience with Rae Lord, Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker was very satisfactory. She was diligent in marketing the property, available whenever needed, attentive to detail and enthusiastic. She kept us informed throughout and was professional at all times. Most important, multiple offers received within one week of listing, and the property was sold for top dollar. We wanted to take a moment to truly thank you for all you did to get our little house sold. We are so grateful to you for the peace of mind that came along with selling the house before beginning our journey across the country! Now we are ready to begin another journey, but we will always remember all you did to help get us where we are.”

“I was so fortunate to find Rae to assist with the sale of an income property I was letting go of. She is accessible, reliable, an excellent negotiator, strategic, kind, and easy to work with. She made the sale seamless and virtually effortless, on my part. My property was located in Hermosa Beach and her knowledge of the market in that area was immediately evident and instrumental in establishing the right price and approach to selling. We were forced to switch buyers midway through. Rae had the foresight to establish a solid backup offer, making the transition smooth and fast. She worked tirelessly with my tenants to keep them motivated to comply with the sales process and she kept me consistently informed. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to endure the stress of the sale process knowing they are in expert hands!

“Our entire experience working with Mrs. Lord has been positive. She was able to help us throughout the sale of a very complex property and continue to be of assistance even after the final closing. Mrs. Lord was extremely knowledgeable with the real estate in the Los Angeles beach cities area. On this very unique older property she worked hard and was able to make a very comprehensive price comparison once we were able to put our home up for sale. She listened to and incorporated our concerns into our treasured home. We were very satisfied with the price she set for us. Her communication was always very clear. When the time for the sale came, she was totally committed to aggressively advertise our home. She gave realtors a private showing and hit the road running. Ads were mailed out, placed in local businesses and sent all over the South Bay area. I would say we had over 50 in less than a month besides coordinating an open house. She found a serious buyer on the first day of showing. No one can guarantee such success with every sale, but I’d give my full trust in Mrs. Lord’s effort and integrity for her next home purchase or sale. She is a star performer. We could not be more pleased with her commitment to us.”

“Rae Lord is the best agent we have worked with in Southern California. She is extremely professional and a fantastic listener, a key factor when you are buying and selling a home. We had to relocate to Saint Louis, MO from the South Bay (Gardena, CA) rather quickly due to a promotional opportunity, and we were so fortunate to work with Rae at Coldwell Banker. We found Rae because she sold a home three houses down from us in record time a year prior. For this reason, she was first on our list to call for a listing presentation with the added bonus that she was approved by our relocation provider. Rae jumped right in to staging our home and got it ready to go on the market within three days of signing our contract with her!

Not only did Rae get our home ready to sell, but she marketed it tirelessly. Just because our home was not in the upper end of the South Bay price ranges, we did not feel any less important than her clients in the $1M plus price range. In fact, she hosted on Open House, and we had multiple offers to entertain. Our home went into escrow within 5 days of being on the market. We had to relocate to STL during the escrow process, and Rae made it seamless for us. She also advocated for us and gave guidance where warranted. Her relaxed demeanor and excellent follow up are another bonus to working with Rae. Rae is client centered, extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and has a strong work ethic. We cannot recommend her enough and hope to keep in touch with her beyond the sale of our home!”

“This letter is in regards to your services you provided us on the purchase of our second home in Redondo Beach. It was a pleasure working with Rae Lord on the purchase of the house. Rae has fantastic understanding of the real estate field and understands the proper way to coordinate the different professionals and different teams involved. Her personality is always calm and even keel, never getting frustrated with all of the questions I needed answered no matter what time of the day or night it happened to be. It made for a fantastic working relationship and a pleasurable purchase experience. I would recommend Rae to anyone that is considering a new purchase or any question someone might have even considered selling their home. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to work with Rae on future purchases.”

“Thank you so much for all of your help during my home sale process. I really appreciate you making multiple trips to the house to retrieve the items I left behind in my haste to relocate to Texas. You truly were a lifesaver towards the end of the process. Again, thanks so much for your help!”
