Five Star Professional partnered with Los Angeles magazine to identify
real estate, mortgage and insurance professionals in the Los Angeles
area who deliver outstanding service and client satisfaction. The Five
Star Professional research team contacted thousands of recent
homebuyers, as well as other consumers. Clients may also submit evaluations online. Phone, mail and online
respondents rated their service professional on criteria such as overall satisfaction and whether they would
recommend the provider to a friend. The research methodology allows no more than 7 percent of
professionals in each category to receive the award. This year ’s winners are listed and profiled in the
following pages (see each award winner’s listing for more details).
Research

Home/Auto Insurance Professionals do not pay a fee to be included

pending.
• T he inclusion of a real estate agent, mortgage professional or

order to identify the professionals in the local market who score
highest in overall satisfaction. These professionals are not included
on the list unless their score is statistically valid.

I was beyond flattered when chosen by my clients for this
distinguished nomination. I am truly grateful that I continue to be
provided the opportunity to help others. After a career in raising
three lovable children, I sought a new challenge and embarked in a
real estate career in October 2005. The challenge of the times seemed
insurmountable but hard work, dedication and the needs of my
clients were paramount. With straight talk and current market facts,
I’m able to provide the necessary tools for my clients to make a smart
decision. Nothing satisfies me more than seeing the smiles that come
with a successful sale or the purchase of a lifetime.
I am thankful that I continue to do what I love … working with buyers
and sellers in the real estate industry.
