We had been looking for a home for a very long time, often changing our minds about locations and the type of home we we were looking for.

Ned was immensely patient throughout a lengthy search, always fastidious and hugely knowledgeable about all facets of the home buying process and his ability to successfully manage other agents and home owners was at all times exemplary.

Ned has a wide network of contacts in the real estate industry and his reputation in the field is stellar, which was immensely beneficial to us.

When we finally settled on a home we liked, Ned's ability to skillfully manage the buying process made us feel at all times safe and well looked after. He was able to handle a complex negotiation with great diplomacy and attention to detail. At the same time he was aggressive when it mattered in order to get us the deal we wanted.

We couldn't recommend Ned any more highly.

I am very happy and thankful for working with Ned Brown for the sale of my mom’s home. Right before the onset of the pandemic I was faced with losing my mom who lived in LA and I live in NY. My mom had discussed market value with Ned a little before her passing (surreal in its own way) and told me that if I ever had to sell the house that is who she wanted me to use. Nobody expected the time to come so quickly that’s for sure but I contacted Ned after her passing. I knew Ned would be a great person to work with right from the beginning, and I feel even stronger about this now having gone through the whole process with him and closing on the house. His professionalism, compassion, extra efforts, knowledge, foresight and prompt responsiveness to any question or issue was way above and beyond my expectations. He helped make an absolutely horrible circumstance easier to deal with. We also were faced with trying to sell a home in the new world order, working through not being able to show the home, to virtual tours, and finally being able to show it with all of the precautions necessary...and we were able to sell the home in a much quicker time than I expected. And once again being in NY and trying to sell a home in LA already was stressful enough but it truly could not have been smoother thanks to Ned! My family and I thank you Ned and I highly recommend if anybody needs to sell their home look no further!

I am sorry to be so late in putting my praise and appreciation on paper. But the reason I have been able to focus so completely on my journalistic work at this time is because our broker, Ned Brown, did his work so efficiently. He removed all the stress of finding tenants for our upstairs duplex rental unit, understanding intuitively the need for the right match considering we would be sharing our backyard and pool with strangers. I have to admit I was nervous, but he did his job so unobtrusively and so quickly, just like that, the deal was done. Six months + later, we still adore our renters, and cannot say enough good about Ned. and how well he took care of us.

My wife and I listed our former CA residence with Ned who was recommended to me by a good friend saying that he is one the best real estate agents he ever worked with. My friend’s recommendation was spot on, I couldn’t be more satisfied with Ned’s advice and service. Our property had a lot of issues, physical and possibly legal, which had to be addressed before the sale one way or another. Ned’s general advice on how to deal with such issues, including how to select experts when needed, was extremely valuable. What I particularly appreciated was that he listed the different choices available to us, pointing out to the pros and cons of each option. He was also a good negotiator dealing with potential buyers and their agents, overseeing multiple rounds of offers and counteroffers. Accordingly, like my friend’s advice, I can full heartedly recommend Ned to everybody.

Ned was responsive and vigilant in helping me to close on a difficult property. He was available online, by phone, text, and in person when I came cross-country to look at homes. He was highly recommended by friends (and their extended family), and I'm glad we were able to work together. Thank you!

Being an out of state seller, Ned jumped in and made all arrangements to get the house in great condition (including new painting, refinishing flooring, staging, etc.). House sold quickly and Ned handled everything expeditiously and professionally. Would highly recommend him.

I can't speak highly enough of my experience with Ned Brown. Throughout the past several months, He’s been there every step of the way. His professionalism, knowledge, honesty, and hard work ethic are much respected and appreciated. I never felt that he was just trying to sell my house, but that he was a mentor to answer my questions and help me to make the best decision for me and my girls. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is searching for a new home or looking to sell there exiting home. Thanks again to Ned Brown for being such a pleasure to work with.

Ned represented us in the sale of our Carthay home. We no longer live in the area - Ned handled all the details and made the entire process extremely easy. He is very responsive and a great negotiator, and I highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home in Los Angeles.

Ned was a great agent: extraordinarily knowledgeable about Carthay real estate, incredibly patient and helpful with all of our questions, and always available (including evenings, weekends, early mornings, etc.). We felt that we were in excellent hands at every point in the process. I recommend him very highly.

Ned knows the area better than most. Selling a home is about the home and the neighborhood as well. He is responsive, professional, and easy to get along with. He has a large rolodex of clients and associates, and that helps get the job done. I was unable to sell a house that could sell itself, and ultimately changed to Ned. He sold it in one day….the agent does make a difference. I strongly recommend NED and am sure he can sell your house, or help you find one.

Ned is very easy to work with, has tremendous knowledge of the neighborhood, and explained and helped me through every step of the process. He quickly responded to my texts and emails. Besides being friendly, straightforward and honest, he was patient enough to help me for almost a year to find a dream home.

Ned recently got a cash buyer for an ambitious asking price for our West Hollywood condo. We had a similar result with him in 06 when we sold our Carthay house. In between these sales he represented us in a purchase and in finding a renter. Ned has always demonstrated himself to be competent, professional and very

When my parents passed away in 2012, we used Ned to help us sell their duplex. Ned took care of everything and made the experience as easy as possible under the circumstances. It was a relief to have him handle the transaction with such expertise and experience. When we decided to sell our single-family home in Carthay in 2013, Ned was the obvious choice for us. Once again he handled everything above and beyond our expectations. We were very happy with the final outcome of the transaction. I would most definitely recommend Ned to anyone looking to purchase or sell property in Los Angeles, and if I need a realtor again in the area, I will look no further.

My wife and I used Ned for the sale of a duplex and the purchase of a single family home both in the Carthay area. Ned is very professional, diligent and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend Ned without hesitation and have referred friends to him. Ned has excellent knowledge of the area and market conditions. He is also very adept at using all the latest technology from web marketing, signing docs, staying in touch etc… everything to help make your transaction as successful, smooth and easy as possible.
We will definitely be using Ned again!

I can't recommend this team more highly! After my parents died, my siblings and I interviewed several realtors to sell their home and we chose Ned Brown. The home was very neglected but had a spectacular location and view. Ned was creative and extremely hardworking and sold the home in 4 days. My whole family is grateful and so impressed with his professionalism, accessibility, hard work and expertise. I have recommended him to many other people without reservation. I am so grateful for what they did for my family!

I highly recomend Ned, He provided excellent service. His unique approach to our listing proved to be especially useful and profitable. He is a cool and imaginative negotiator. You should have him on your side.

We have used Ned on three different transactions already and must say that I would not use anyone else in the future. The first sale was a short-sale and Ned led us through this stressful experience with expertise and diplomacy. He never lost patience with us and at times we were wondering where he gets his energy from to deal with the banks, the buyer and last but not least with us. The second sale was a Duplex in Carthay Circle, Ned succeeded to sell it for us at well above the asking price. Also the third transaction was smooth. Ned has shown that he is a professional and his strategies work. He is an honest, hard working individual that takes pride in his work. These are qualities that are hard to find these days.

01/17/2014 - derekchasin

Our family worked with Ned on the sale of our duplex and purchase of our home in Carthay Circle in May of 2013. During both the sale and the purchase we appreciated Ned's experience, communication skills, and professionalism. We relied on Ned's advice and guidance. Everything was handled promptly and very well. Ned was respectful, very professional, considerate and truly understands the market and works tirelessly to produce positive results. We sold our property within two weeks at a great price. Followup through closing was excellent. We definitely will use Ned again. Highly recommended!

I strongly recommend Ned and Jennifer Brown. They are superb agents, from the very first contact and continuing all the way through the closing. They do their homework, bring to bear important expertise and knowledge, always respond promptly, handle challenging clients (me) with grace and ease, and regularly go above and beyond for their clients. We couldn't have had a better experience with an agent.

My husband and I have completed three separate transactions with Ned Brown (two purchases and one sale), and have found him to be professional in every regard. His business acumen, attention to detail, marketing savvy and negotiating skill proved invaluable each time out, and garnered results that we are very happy with.

01/09/2014 - JamesPWhalenLA

Ned does an excellent job in the duplex market/multi-unit market. He is truly on top of the trends in real estate, and it's many challenges and opportunities. His level of professionalism is at the highest level; moreover, it does not distract him from being an aggressive advocate for his clients.

01/08/2014 - Julie and David Macht-Beenhouwer

My husband and I have worked with Ned on three transactions, selling and buying and selling again our family homes and he has been kind, considerate and incredibly professional in each transaction. Without ever being pushy, he has kept the process on track, moving quickly and comprehensively through each contract and negotiation. Best of all ,he is just a good guy and easy to work with. He is one of our most trusted advisors and we look forward to purchasing our next home with him.

Ned Brown is the most professional agent I have ever worked with, and I've worked with a lot of them. He put together a great marketing plan that resulted in selling our duplex in a few days for way more than any of the local comps. He made the process seamless and easy for us. Jennifer and Ned also helped us with the purchase of a new home and once again their experience and responsiveness made it a smooth and easy process. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell.
