We made the move from Toronto, Canada to Redondo Beach, California this past January which in itself is a big deal, and more so when you don't have a clue about the area you are moving to. It was with a huge sigh of relief when we met Anna Rivas who helped us to get to know the area as a local, with respect to mapping out various neighborhoods and the benefits of each.

The process of selling our home was a smooth and amazingly stress-free process, thanks to our realtor, Anna Doherty Rivas. From our very first meeting, we recognized and appreciated Anna’s professional and organized approach. The communication flow was just right—she kept us apprised of important developments and checked in periodically to see if we had any questions or concerns. We knew we could reach out to her at any time and would receive a response in a very timely manner. We feel we got the best price for home with the perfect buyer and are extremely satisfied with the advice that Anna

Anna is the best! Our first purchase in the state of CA after being here for 14 years could not have been handled any better. We were reluctant in purchasing as we were stung before when we sold our home (Midwest) and we moved out here (CA) in 2008 (yep...2008). Anna was exactly what we needed in a market that was similar to the Hunger Games Franchise. Anna's attention to detail and overall knowledge led us to the perfect townhome in Redondo Beach, CA. She helped us navigate through a process that had been completely flipped upside down due to the pandemic. She told us that we would always

Anna was terrific in our search for a home! Buying a home right now is exhausting-- I heard frequently how wild the market is, but still underestimated the emotional toll it would take as we searched. The process is overwhelming for first-time buyers in a normal situation, and I think right now is anything but normal. Anna was always checking in on us-- she answered everything we asked and made sure to meet us at our comfort level. She became out biggest counselor and cheerleader through the entire process. In the end, we bought a home that made it all worth it, and so much of that was due to Anna

Anna was the perfect agent for us first-time homebuyers. She made us feel like her only clients (even though she was juggling others) and was quick to act when we spotted a home online that we wanted to see. Anna goes above and beyond to build relationships with the sellers agents as a way to give us an edge among the competition and get much-needed intel. Anna has your best interest at heart, especially when you are weighing making an offer that is also a wise investment on a home. She's the agent you want by your side when you're stressed out about making one of life's biggest decisions AND when

You might think you have a great real estate agent, but until you've worked with Anna you really have no idea just how mind-blowingly amazing a realtor can be. Anna went so far above and beyond managing contractors and repairs to our property (prior to listing) that we literally felt guilty about how much work she did for us - just for the standard agent's fee. Thanks to all her hard work (and very little, if any, of ours), she got us way more money for our property than we ever imagined we'd get. On top of this all, she's intelligent, knowledgeable, reliable, and an absolute pleasure to work with

We've been in our house for a year now, and we're continually thankful for owning a house at this point in time. And we're also incredibly thankful for all of Anna's work in getting us our house.
While we had some second-hand experience in the home buying process, it was very helpful having Anna walk us through everything. She was very knowledgeable in the area and was always very organized when we would meet with her to discuss our options and next steps. She was able to tailor the homes she would show us based on what we were looking for (and also not looking for!) so we were able to limit the

Working with Anna was an amazing experience. She is very organized and attentive. Anna answered all of our questions, helped us get quotes, and was very transparent on the whole transaction. We consistently felt like we were in the loop and knew all the steps to take. She hired reputable home Inspectors and really wanted the best for us. She is truly a dream to work with I would definitely trust her with ALL of my future purchases.

Anna was hands down the best realtor we've ever worked with. Our timeline changed dramaticaly during our search and we needed to find a house in about two weeks. She advised us in stressful situations (like competing with 25 offers on one house)! In the end we found our perfect dream home and Anna was with us every step of the way. What we love about Anna is that she is in constant contact with us, always responds promptly, and is so personable! She's also very knowledgeable about the Pasadena/Altadena area and gave us so many tips on neighborhoods, schools, local restaurants, and so

My husband and I recently bought our first home with the help of Anna and we cannot recommend her enough. Anna is professional, warm, responsive, incredibly detail-oriented and prepared. We ended up putting an offer on a house we saw and began working very closely with her right from the start. From start to finish, we felt like we were in very capable hands and extremely prepared about the next steps. She also made sure we understood each of the contingency periods and what our rights were, while reiterating throughout the process that her ultimate goal was for us to find a home that we loved

Anna made our home buying experience flawless. Her ability to maneuver through some very difficult hurdles placed in front of her was nothing short of heroic. She put our best interests ahead of anything else in the process, and really listened to our feedback.

As first time buyers, my wife and I needed to work with an agent who we felt comfortable with but who was also experienced and well connected in the South Bay. Anna was all of that and more! We never felt stressed throughout our home search and purchase process because we had Anna in our corner. She was an absolute pleasure to work with!

Anna is everything you would want in an agent. She is very involved in the South Bay community, so she has an extensive network and truly knows the area. She is friendly, engaging, and proactive. She listens, pays impeccable attention to detail, and has excellent communication skills. She is incredibly patient, always had our best interests in mind, and made sure we felt completely comfortable from the beginning to the end of our home search.
As first-time homebuyers, this whole process was incredibly daunting. Anna provided us with multiple resources to guide us. As you can imagine,
