The only drawback to James finding us a home so quickly was that we didn’t get to spend more time with him.

After weeks of searching for homes online and going to open houses on our own, we were fortunate to be introduced to James. Planning too far in advance for several hours of home tours proved tough with a newborn in tow, but James was always accommodating to our schedule. He listened closely to our needs and our thoughts on the homes we visited, and on our second day of tours he got an alert that a home right up our alley had entered the market. Thanks to James were the first folks to walk through the door for a private viewing and within a few days we were one of six couples vying for the home. A month later we were closing and now we’re all moved in and couldn’t be happier!

I can’t recommend James enough. He’s easy going and fun to spend time with, but extremely professional and very sharp. If you’re organized and quick to turn around paperwork, you’ll appreciate how responsive and on top of things he is. And if you’re disorganized and slow to move, you’ll need someone like him to help you stay ahead in this fast paced market. Weeks after we moved in, he’s still following up to see how the move went and make sure all is well—that’s the kind of guy you want on your side during the stressful process of purchasing a home.

I can't thank James enough for his hard work and dedication in selling our home in Culver City. When looking for an agent, we interviewed many top sellers in the neighborhood until James was highly recommended to us.

James understood the market and had many smart suggestions on how to prepare and present the home for sale. Because of his expertise, we were able to list the house for a much higher price than what was recommended by the other agents we had interviewed. Within a couple weeks, we had multiple offers and sold the house for $42K over the asking price.

Because James is an attorney / real estate agent, though I was out of the country, I didn't worry. I felt that James always had our interest in mind and walked us through each and every step of the process.

I am happy to recommend James Yoo to anyone who wants professional expertise and commitment to their clients goals in selling their property.

James worked exceptionally hard for my wife and I in selling out home. He was there with lots of information, great ideas and advice on how to best present our house to appeal to the widest range of buyers and command top price. I would not hesitate in going with James in any future deal, either as seller or buyer.

My husband and I partnered with James Yoo to lease out the front unit of our duplex. James found us a great tenant within two weeks of us giving him the listing. His communication skills and his knowledge of the Santa Monica rental market was essential for us as owners of a vacant unit. I will be recommending him to my friends Ms family.

After 3 Years of looking to find a home for my family, we were almost going to give up when we got introduced to James. James, not just found us a home, but he was able to get us a great deal. He is very responsive and professional and ensured the whole process went through with no delay or unforeseen surprises. He is very thorough in what he does. He was always available to answer our questions and went above and beyond to get us through this deal. He is very knowledgeable and advised us appropriately during the process.

After working with 3 different agents over the period of 3 years and our endless search for a home in the scarce market led us to James. He was very patient and, worked with us in finding our dream home. He was prompt in answering our questions irrespective of the time of day, some qualities that we have not experienced before. He gave us the right advice and guided towards a great home buying experience.

I am really glad that we met James.

James helped us buy our first home in Culver City in 2016. James put us at ease with the whole process and was an invaluable resource on all aspects of the purchase. We've referred many friends his way and would wholeheartedly use his services again in the future if needed. Would give 10 stars if I could!

James was the amazing realtor who helped us to both sell our house and buy our new place. Before we even listed our house, he came multiple times to make suggestions for any repairs/updates and referred an amazing designer/stager (per our request). Even with his busy schedule, he went above and beyond his duty to research and find us various laborers for repairs. Not only was James on point listing our house, he was an impressive negotiator getting us $90K above asking. It was during this sale process, he also made time to house hunt for us to move into. He is a consummate professional with attention to details, great communication skills, and excellent negotiation ability (given his law degree) as a realtor for both seller and buyer. We highly recommend James to everyone!
