Probate and trust sales
I plan the sale around court timelines and executor sign-offs from our first meeting, so nothing stalls at the end.

Most real estate transactions are straightforward. I built my career on the ones that are not.
I have helped buyers and sellers across Los Angeles and Riverside counties since 2005. Bring me the sale with a court date, a lender to answer to, or a family history in the house.

Specialties
Sales that need a steady hand.
Each of these sales has its own rules and its own paperwork. I learned them one transaction at a time, and I still read the fine print for you.
Proposition 19 tax transfers
A move can let you keep your property tax base. We go through the rules before you list, so the numbers hold no surprises.
Inherited homes with several heirs
Siblings often want different things. I help the family agree on price and timing, then run one clean sale.
Senior rightsizing
Leaving a home after decades takes patience. We set the pace together and plan each step before the sign goes up.
Short sales
When you owe more than the home is worth, the lender must approve the sale. I manage the lender file and keep you informed at every step.
VA home loans
Veterans and active duty buyers get an agent who knows the VA appraisal and approval steps. I hold the VA Certified Agent certificate from theVAloan.org.
Current listings and recent sales
From Los Angeles to Riverside.
Some lots are worth more for what they could become. I research what the zoning allows and market the property to the buyers who can use it.

“My agent, Elizabeth Samuels, was recommended to me and made the difficult experience of selling my grandmother's home a joy even when we came across bumps in the road. She prepared me for each step and walked me through as if she was a close friend. She really understood what I wanted and ended up selling my grandmother's house for more then the asking price!”
“I have bought and sold 9 properties over the years. No agent has ever worked more diligently for me than Liz... You're not just a dollar sign to her.”
“Thankful to have Liz's help and amazing personality with such great communication when it came to selling our home. A true professional! Made what can be a stressful situation seamless. Forever grateful.”
“...I was out of state but Liz made the process seamless and smooth where selling my home was one less thing I had to worry about during my move.”
