A big part of our job at Glitterati Tours is keeping up to date on real estate. It’s a must for our wildly popular celebrity homes tours as well as our “Underbelly LA” scandals tour. Our research delves into the history of particular homes, their well-known owners, and the listing and selling prices.
But, we can’t possibly know the ins and outs of every aspect of the ever-changing real estate market for potential buyers interested in purchasing homes in the general Los Angeles area.
Because of this, we’ve teamed up with a professional real estate agent name Frank Andriolo. He works with Sotheby’s, which is one of the most respected and prestigious real estate companies in the country. Frank has been a long-time friend of ours at Glitterati, and he’s the go-to pro whenever we have questions for clients looking for homes. Things like property taxes, rules and regulations, mortgage calculations, closing costs, inspections, and every else that goes along with buying a home in Southern California. Frank’s background in buying and selling properties goes back 30+ years. Plus, he’s just an all-around great guy and fantastic at what he does. Trustworthy, full of integrity, and passionate about properties.
If you’re serious about relocating to Los Angeles, and want the general lay of the land, we can provide you with one of our amazing private sightseeing tours, and have Frank on board to answer any and all real estate questions for you.
As we mention on our House Hunting Los Angeles Real Estate Tour page, there is no extra cost to have a realtor along on the tour. Our normal posted tour rates apply. Advance notice required so we can guarantee both your guide and realtor to provide an all-in-one sightseeing/house hunting tour. We can also prepare the perfect outing and estimate your timeframe depending on the areas you would like to explore, and open houses you may wish to view.
Areas can include, and are not limited to: Atwater Village, The Hollywood Hills, Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Hancock Park, Silverlake, Venice Beach, Malibu, Santa Monica, Coldwater Canyon, Beachwood Canyon, Nichols Canyon, Laurel Canyon, Holmby Hills, and Downtown Los Angeles.
This is ideal for those relocating from the East Coast to the West Coast, or even those changing careers from Silicon Valley up north, to a start-up tech company here down south in Silicon Beach.
If you already know the communities and want to skip the tour all-together, that’s perfectly fine! Perfect example —- we don’t provide tours of Palm Springs, but Frank knows this market extremely well. You can contact Frank Andriolo directly from his webpage.
Happy house and condominium hunting. You’re gonna LOVE L.A.!…we do.
