Dana had the patience and tenacity

I had already been "fired" by two real estate agents before I was referred to Dana Ehrlich. I had been told that I was "unrealistic," and I would "never find what I wanted" at a price I was willing to spend, not in today's market. But Dana had the patience and tenacity to stick with me as I looked over scores of condos, and wavered about what area I wanted to live in. Finally, with Dana's help, I focused on what was most important to me and located a home I love.  In working with Dana, I was impressed, time and time again, with her warmth, her personability, her knowledge and her eagerness to assist. Not only did she guide me through the search and massive amounts of paperwork, but also she possessed a wealth of knowledge about the outside contractors and services I would need to make the place my own. She gave me referrals for skilled inspectors, movers, painters, and upholstery cleaners. All in all, I'd have to say that my third try at buying a home--with Dana at my side--was the charm.

Dana gave solid advice

Dana´s negotiating skills are impressive and her advice was very solid.  I felt I paid a very fair price and she made sure we acted quickly so that we didn´t end up in a bidding war.

Dana was tireless in her strategy

It was a very fast transaction, complicated by a few unforeseen circumstances.  During this process, Dana kept a level head, a positive disposition and a caring consistency.   As we purchased our new home, we needed to sell our old home.  With the changing real estate market, we needed to make several adjustments to position our home in the best possible light.  Dana was tireless in her strategy, her promotion and the presentation of our home.  In the end, we received multiple offers and sold at a price exceeding our expectations!

We love our new home and are thrilled with the sale of our old home!  Dana's presence added tremendous value to our experience.  She excelled in her performance as a realtor, a confident, a strategist and a friend.

It is with high regard that I would recommend Dana Ehrlich as a realtor. She is professional, positive and remarkably service oriented.

What a great experience

The best part of our home buying experience is the great experience we had with you!  For first-time home buyers, you made everything understandable.  You were dedicated, fun to work with, and...it was fast and easy!

Dana took time to listen

I want to thank you for the great job you did on helping find my condo.  You took the time to listen to what I was looking for and only showed me units that met my requirements.  You have a great knowledge of the West Los Angeles area and knew what areas I would be comfortable in.  You made the extra effort to come to my office whenever something needed to be signed.  I first met you when you were in marketing but I think you have found your calling in real estate.  Thanks for all the extra effort that you put in, I would (and have) recommended you to my friends and colleagues.

Dana's ability to listen to my requests

The first thing that impressed me about Dana was when she took the time to come visit my current apartment to see the type/ style and level of property I was interested in. No real estate agent has ever taken the time to come and see my current living conditions to better understand my future needs.

When I started out looking for a property I knew that I had very specific demands.  Her ability to listen to my requests and NOT show me any thing that varied from the Brief showed me her true selfless integrity in looking out for exactly what I needed and wanted. The level of warmth, genuineness and pure sincerity made me feel that not only was she working for me as an agent but that she could become a friend I would love to have for years to come. This is rare indeed in this very fickle city.

Dana was wonderful to work with

It was pure luck (or perhaps even fate) that Dana popped into my life just as I was considering buying a house.  I was completely clueless as to where I should even begin however, all my confusion was put at ease when Dana sat down and explained all that was involved in the process of purchasing real estate.  She also helped me to refine exactly what I was looking for in a house, to determine the best location for my needs, and to develop a realistic budget.  

Dana was amazingly attentive and competent through the entire process: from selecting the perfect house and negotiating an offer, to closing escrow and delivering my keys.  She made the whole experience flow seamlessly.  But truly, what made Dana so wonderful to work with was more than her experience and competence-it was her personality.  With the countless back-and-forth phone calls and meetings that take place in a real estate transaction, it
was so nice to feel that I was always working with a friend.

Dana knows customer service

Dana was referred to us by a friend and she made all of the difference in our move. Since we were living in New Jersey, we had a small window of opportunity to come to CA to look at homes. Dana was more than accommodating with our schedule. Not only does she know the market in the West Side, but she knows customer service.

She was always available to talk and I took full advantage of it. She would go out of her way to make sure the units would be available at the times we needed. She is always happy, sincere, and willing to do whatever it takes to make sure all of our needs are met.

It has been almost a year since we purchased and she still makes herself available when I have questions. Dana made this as easy as a cross country relo can be.
