I've seen a lot of people hate on Valnes and company, but have not actually experienced the services. He is the most knowledgeable realtor in all of Santa Monica. He sold my house for 250k over market value. The housing market goes over ups and downs. No Realtor is going to be able to tell with 100% certainty where the market is going. In my case, he provided me with the sale and made the whole process easy and simple for me. I thank him and his company for their service.
