I have been a Halton Pardee + Partners client from before the Halton and Partners parts were added to the name. I have now worked with them in…multiple capacities, and my experiences are overwhelmingly positive. Rachael Peterson was my buyer agent in acquiring a property in late 2015. It was not my first purchase, but it was significantly more complicated than my first in several ways: it is a multi-family property, the rental income was necessary in qualifying for the mortgage, there was a tenant to dislodge from the unit that we wanted to occupy ourselves, and it is Los Angeles. Rachael was helpful throughout the process, taking care of a lot of coordination because we had not yet moved to LA. I am happy with every service provider suggestion that she gave, and more than just doing what was necessary or what I knew to ask her to do, she provided guidance when I had open-ended questions. Even if I were to use hindsight in an unfair way, I would find that all of Rachael's opinions proved correct. My only complaint is arguably unreasonable: she did not proactively prevent me from mistakenly considering the house to be in move-in condition. More recently, Keri Coughlan and Josh Flynn have helped me lease one of the units. Most of my contact has been with Keri. I am very happy to have worked with Keri, and I plan to continue to work with her. Paralleling what I wrote about Rachael, an agent adds a lot of value by having well-justified opinions informed by local knowledge and experience. Keri helped me decide which minor renovations were worth completing prior to renting, and importantly she did not encourage me to go overboard. I am confident that she was thinking through my long-term ROI rather than her commission. Rachael and Keri have earned my trust. I have intentionally left "Negotiation skills" blank because I do not have enough basis for an opinion on that.
