Since then, she's continued to work with me - helping me rent my home, advising me on renovation plans to maximize value, even consulting on landscape design! Hoffman Murphy is truly a full service group, and their support doesn't end at closing!"
"Living 3.000 miles away from the property I was investing in was not an easy thing to do. Until I met Bob Walaka and his team. I could not have done it without Bob. He went above and beyond to make my dream come true."

"I can't say enough about Hoffman Murphy and the amazing experience my sister and I just had getting our mom's house ready, on the market and SOLD! Marie Hoffman and Laura Grabner were just the best - they listened and had great ideas to get us going. Once we agreed on a plan, Laura and her team just ran with it. She had excellent partners who all did what they said the…
"Everything about my experience with Melissa Pilon at Hoffman Murphy was exceptional. She oversaw getting my home ready for leasing since I now live out of town. She stayed in frequent touch with me to make sure everything was done just the way I wanted it. Most importantly, she gave me great advice about what to do (and what not to do) to get a great tenant at a great rent…
"If I could give Melissa Pilon a hundred stars, I would. Her passion for matching people with the home of their dreams is so heartwarming and inspiring. She's an amazing listener. She got to know me (and my wishlist!) well and helped me find a magical little spot to call my own. But finding, I realize, is the easy part in California! The next step is beating out all of the …
"We would give 100 STARS for this amazing real estate team! Patient, professional, passionate, knowledgable, dedicated, kind, considerate... there aren't enough adjectives to describe just how incredible this team is from start to finish.

"Valerie and the whole Hoffman Murphy team were great to work with. Not only did they help us find the perfect home, but they also found us great renters for our previous property. Professional, friendly, and great service!!"
"We worked with Melissa Pilon at Hoffman Murphy and we highly recommend her. She is enthusiastic, professional, fun to be with, and was absolutely dedicated to getting us the house we wanted. She worked morning, noon, and night for us, and was incredibly responsive to any emails or calls. We eventually found ourselves in a bidding war with 25 other offers on the table, and …
"While this Thanksgiving holiday may be different from other years, it may well be the most memorable. As we’re starting to unpack and getting ready for the holidays, we couldn’t believe we are here @ our dream home... our biggest thanks and kudos go to the Hoffman Murphy team! We had a tough start with selling our townhome in Redondo Beach, and we knew we need to go with…

"I found the perfect South Bay property for me. It was represented by Hoffman Murphy. I needed to sell my house in order to get my dream property in the Hollywood Riviera. My home needed lots of work to get top dollar. I contacted Marie and she was able to get my home sold and represent me and the seller. This type of transaction can be extremely tricky for both sides…
"Talk about a client-centered approach to real estate! Bob and Laura are an amazing team, bringing years of experience, integrity, and unique insights to the home selling process. They helped my wife and me sell our house by first carefully listening to our needs, followed by recommendations which resulted in a quick sale at the price we told them we wanted. They clearly c…

He was friendly and fun, and answered all of our millions of questions without complaint. We switched to this company after a few months with a different company that we weren't connecting with, and …
"Sue Murphy helped us find our first home in Manhattan Beach when our twins were infants and we didn't know what we were doing. When it was time she helped us sell that home, from staging negotiating and she got us got the price we had hoped for. That was over thirty years ago. Recently she helped us find perfect home for my wife and I in Redondo Beach and everything wo…
"The Hoffman Murphy Team was invaluable in helping us secure a home that we have been coveting for several years while renting in the South Bay. Our realtor, Laura, jumped into action the moment the house hit the market and did not stop until the house was ours. She calmly managed all of the common home buying fears and anxieties that came up for us along the way, and utili…
"Laura was my agent. I found them as they had recently sold another unit in my building. At first, because of their distance from me I was a little hesitant, they are in Hermosa Beach, and I am in the Valley, but after talking to Laura and Matt, I was confident they will do a great a great job. My condo was sold pretty quickley, and everyone I came in contact with, both dir…

"If you are looking for a realtor in the South Bay and surrounding areas, look no further! Hoffman Murphy, and specifically my agent Val Alexander was unbelievably responsive and attentive.
