Adam Bray-Ali

This is a long overdue review for Adam! I first started following Adam on Redfin’s forum and was quite impressed with his knowledge for various parts in LA. When we sold our loft on DT back in 2014 we reached out to him to help us to find temporary rental while we searched for our permanent home. While we end up renting an apartment in DT, we did not forget his excellent service so when we found our dream home in La Canada last year, we reached out to him immediately to have him represent us in the transaction. His utmost professionalism throughout the bidding process is probably one of the reasons why the Seller chose us to be the next caretaker of her home. If you know La Canada, it’s a seller’s market and extremely competitive, we would not have been able to buy a house there without Adam’s help. Also, if you are into graphs/​charts, Adam is the ONLY agent that I know who provides these to the clients to track sales data in any given city; both my husband and I found these charts meaningful and invaluable in helping us to set our expectations for price points.

As a first time home buyer, I had may questions about the entire process. Adam took the time to answer all my questions and made sure that I understood them. He showed me only properties that were in my price range and never pressured me to look outside my comfort zone.
Adam walked me through the offer, contract, and inspection process which was at times overwhelming. He handled the entire transaction with professionalism and cared more that I was getting the home that I wanted rather than to maximize his commission.
I will be using Adam for all my real estate needs moving forward and have recommended him to all my friends for their real estate needs.

I’ve consulted with Adam for five years. He’s honest, smart, knowledgeable, confident and always ON. He loves his work. I would recommend him for any real estate transaction.

Adam found us our dream home. How did he do it? Hitting the pavement, knowing and loving Los Angeles and putting in real hours. Adam lives and breathes Los Angeles. He truly loves what he does and that is invaluable. He also respects the fact that there is no one right answer for most questions that surface in the process of buying a home. Adam made himself available at all hours responding to calls, texts and emails with thoughtful and wise insights. Even well after closing, we’ve kept in touch and know we can count on him for excellent advise. Having attempted to work with a few other agents I can comfortably say that Adam is at the very top of his game.

we met adam at one of his own open houses, talked a bit about the place, and immediately realized this is the sort of guy we want to deal with. we quickly abandoned our agent to work with him instead.
he is sincere, well-​spoken, and really knows how to educate. we learned so much from him, not just about the buying process or the intricacies of our paperwork, but also things to look for in the inspection of a house & city matters like permits (which is really important in NELA).
adam was the only agent we’d met that wasn’t trying to strong-​arm us into closing with canned dialogue and realtor-​speak. there was never any pressure towards us. at the same time though, in office-​mode, adam gets shit done. he would dig up all sorts of info on houses from the city files & realtor databases that we don’t have access to, and he would aggressively phone&email with the agents of the homes we liked to get us in there or assess their offer situation.
as first time buyers, we wanted to take our time and find a place that was really right for us. we met at so many properties together, spent as much time as we needed, assessed damage and repair costs, permit issues, etc.
we worked together for six months (!!!), and when we found our dream house, adam put together a killer offer for it that was accepted immediately. i am writing this review from our new front porch. we would not have gotten here without his expertise!
moving is really intense & having a realtor you can trust is important. while you’re at it, you should really work with someone you’d actually want to invite to your home.
also — if you take a walk around highland park with adam, every 2 minutes someone will say hi to him, or point and give him a thumbs up or something. he is well respected in the neighborhood and they kinda treat him like the Fonz.

LOVE working with Adam Bray-​Ali. We’ve closed a couple deals together and I can tell you he is a top-​notch Realtor.
Follow-​up with his clients and the service providers associated with the deal is helpful, timely and appropriately aggressive without feeling pushy.
Love working with this true professional who is doing great business on the Eastside of Los Angeles for his buyers and sellers.

I always go to Adam to help me find tenants for my duplex. He’s very professional and makes the process worry free. If you need someone to manage your properties or need help finding tenants he’s the man! He has years of experience managing properties and he’s always willing to pass some of that knowlege on to you!!!

Adam knows the housing market in Alhambra inside and out, not just from a realtor’s perspective but as a resident and a Native Angelino. From the best schools to the best Vietnamese bakery, to the detailed attributes of every neighborhood… he knows his stuff. I trusted his advice because it quickly became clear that he understood what we were looking for and was committed to helping us find the best fit, rather than just trying to close a deal.
