About Me

Finding the right real estate agent can be the difference between a happy, stress-free home buying or selling experience, and an unhappy, stressful experience.

First, you'll want an agent ready and able to make a full-time commitment to you. I can and will do that.

Second, you'll want an agent with the experience needed to know the local neighborhoods, schools, market conditions, ordinances, etc. With my years of experience in the local market - I have the expertise and track record of success you need.

Third, you'll want an agent who embraces the convenience of technology without losing the personal touch. You'll love the resources available on my website and the e-mail alerts that I send, but these will never replace the time I spend with you, serving as your personal guide through this exciting process.

Let's get together and talk about your home buying and/or selling plans. Call me at (310) 403-4004 or send me an e-mail at mmontoya@kw.com, and we'll set-up a time that is easy and convenient for you to meet.

Testimonials

"THANK YOU for doing such a great job of selling our LA condo! It was a real pleasure working with you, and we'll definitely keep you in mind for referrals and if we ever move back to the LA area. If you are ever up in the Bay area, let us know."

"I can start by saying Maria Montoya is fantastic, extraordinary, amazing, wonderful, stupendous … When I finally walked into the home that I would eventually purchase, I knew at that moment that Maria’s job had been accomplished. I will recommend her to every friend and family member who is ever in the market to purchase or sell. Los Angeles, CA"

I'm an East Coaster who has either lived in NYC or DC my whole life, and am getting ready to move to LA. Any?

Asked Sat Feb 23 2008, 12:58 by Jim - Los Angeles - General Area - 16 answers

Maria Montoya answered:

LA has lots of interesting and unique neighborhoods. Santa Monica is very fun, beachy, carefree. Hancock Park is more stately with its beautiful old homes and large front lawns. There are also a number of great neighborhoods in between: Mar Vista, Brentwood, Westwood, Cheviot Hills, Beverlywood, Laurel Canyon, to name a few. And don't forget "The Valley" with wonderful communities in Studio City, Valley Village, Sherman Oaks, Encino, etc.

Where you choose to live will depend on a number of factors including the following:
Where you will work, and what kind of commute you're willing to put up with;
Whether you are alone or with family (if kids, you'll probably be concerned with proximity to good schools);
Lifestyle preferences: if you're looking for ocean breezes, or amazing city views, maybe somehting rustic in the hills, or a more traditional, family neighborhood with manicured lawns and picket fences.

These are just a few things to consider. If you can swing it, my best recommendation would be to come out before your move and check out the various neighborhoods that interest you.

Good luck, and feel free to contact me if you need anything.

Best,

Maria Montoya

What is the difference between decorating and staging a home? Why is staging so important?

Asked Thu May 8 2008, 08:53 by Sandy Hess, … - 23703 - Home Selling - 14 answers

Maria Montoya answered:

Staging emphasizes a home's assets and it's decoration is meant to be generic enough to to appeal to the largest possible number of buyers. Decorating, on the other hand, is more about personalizing a home to reflect the owner's tastes and interests. When you're selling, you want the home to appeal to as many buyers as possible. - Thu May 8 2008, 09:36
