We Are Different
Large brokerages charge high commissions to pay their expensive overhead.
We have lower expenses and pass along savings to our clients:
- 1% – 1.5% sales price rebate to buyers
- 1% – 1.5% commission to represent sellers
Buying or selling a home is not a time to cut corners and Realtors play a vital role in protecting their clients’ interests, but 2.5% commissions are outdated.
We have a 5-Star Yelp rating and 100+ reviews from clients who enthusiastically endorse our service.
Since 1998, we have sold small condos, large estates and everything in between. Call me and let’s discuss how we can help.

Posted on Google Lawrence SilvaJuly 6, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just bought our second home here in the East Bay with Anita Sever, and I can’t recommend her enough. Even though we’ve been through the home-buying process before, this transaction threw some curveballs our way. We were dealing with constant delays with the underwriter that threatened to stall the whole deal. On top of that, Anita managed to successfully negotiate certain contingencies for us—which is incredibly rare and difficult to pull off in this specific market. Every time an obstacle popped up, she was already on top of it, protecting our interests and pushing the process forward. Anita is sharp, highly proactive, and exactly the kind of advocate you want in your corner when a deal gets complicated. If you want a realtor who actually delivers and knows how to navigate a tough market, go with Anita.Posted on Google Catherine DavidsonMay 29, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. You will get your dream home working with Hugh and Anita! They are the best at what they do, their knowledge in the field, their patience, and ability to get things done is unmatched! They helped us close on our first home and didn’t promise anything without delivering! We will definitely be returning clients!Posted on Google Margaret RoweMay 29, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a real estate investor, I have worked with countless real estate agents over the years, and very few have truly impressed me. In fact, aside from one exceptional agent I worked with in Phoenix, Anita is the only Realtor I have encountered in Los Angeles whom I would enthusiastically recommend without reservation. Selling my 1920s Spanish-style Santa Monica condo was not an easy transaction. The property presented unique challenges and buyer objections, yet Anita navigated every step of the process with intelligence, persistence, and remarkable strategic insight. She took the time to thoughtfully discuss prospective buyers, analyze feedback, and develop solutions that ultimately led to a successful sale. What sets Anita apart is her dedication to her clients. She was always available, highly responsive, and consistently provided thoughtful guidance throughout the transaction. Beyond her professional expertise, she brought warmth, positivity, and even a bit of wisdom and humor to the process, making what could have been a stressful experience far more enjoyable. I am deeply grateful for Anita's hard work, professionalism, and commitment. She achieved an outcome that at times felt unlikely, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking an exceptional real estate professional.Posted on Google Jacobe JayMay 8, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic communication from the first phone call and Anita is the total package, both personal and professional. Such a smooth process all around. Highly recommend and I look forward to working with them again in the future.Posted on Google Linda PMarch 13, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just purchased our first home--thanks to the amazing support of Anita! She was a recommendation from family, and I'm so glad we had such an amazing partner throughout this experience. As a first time homebuyer, it was so helpful to have trustworthy representation of someone seasoned in the industry. In this hyper competitive market, it was also so helpful that Anita was super agile and strategic. I highly recommend working with Anita and team!Posted on Google Grace SuNovember 21, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After having worked with numerous realtors over the years, Anita is one of the best agents in the industry, hands down. We found Anita and Hugh through Yelp and Google, and after we identified a home we wanted to purchase, we reached out. I had not worked previously with Hugh or Anita, but the first call with them made me confident that they would work hard for us and have the experience to navigate all the bumps we might run into during escrow. Anita went straight to work, negotiating with the listing agent/sellers. To put this all in perspective, we identified the home we wanted to buy on Friday afternoon. By Friday evening, Anita had coordinated with the seller to accept our offer exclusively (they had 3 other offers on the table), and Anita submitted the offer on our behalf the same evening. Less than 24 hours, we received an email acceptance of our offer and by Monday morning, we opened escrow with the contract signed by the sellers. While this was all happening from Friday-Monday, she was out of town and YET still working so diligently for us. It takes an experienced agent to be able to coordinate and close escrow within 30 days. That being said, we closed escrow in under 18 DAYS, and it speaks volumes to Anita's incredible work ethic. She was extremely organized, responsive, and kept everything going per or even ahead of schedule. She always gave me a heads up on things that were coming up that needed to be signed, and she reviewed each document with me thoroughly, highlighting items that would be important to note. For a purchase as big as a home purchase, this was the smoothest transaction I have ever been a part of. I'm extremely hands on with all transactions, but Anita gave me confidence that everything would be taken care of and I could leave it to her to handle. She answered all of my questions (I had many), and she would so kindly provide me with her contacts if I needed to cost compare. If you're considering buying or selling your property/home and need a strong and skilled agent, I highly recommend Anita. I have so much respect for professionals like Anita who keep hustling and raising the standard for the profession, and Anita deserves the highest praise for her hard work, determination, and negotiation skills. After this experience, she's someone I would trust with every one of our real estate transactions. Anita, I can't thank you enough for your dedication to us throughout our entire buying process. We hope to work with you again and again.Posted on Google Jessica LongeOctober 5, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anita and her team worked so hard to sell our first home. Anita truly went above and beyond to make everything as easy and fast as possible. She was always available any time of day for a quick call or to answer any of our questions. She made us feel like we were her only clients. We HIGHLY recommend Anita and her team for anyone buying or selling. We are so grateful to have found her! Thank you !!!Posted on Google C RSeptember 12, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. How to adequately sing the praises of Anita? I've now bought two homes in my life. This is supposed to be one of the most stressful experiences, right? The first time around, it WAS very stressful, even though I liked my agent quite a bit! But this time around? With Anita by my side? It was, dare I say, fun! FUN! Who has fun with a process like buying a house? People working with Anita, that's who. She is all the things you dream of in an agent: smart, ridiculously knowledgeable, resourceful, responsive, personable, funny, detail-oriented, and alternately calm or urgent, depending on what the situation calls for. Indeed, her judgment and strategy calls were impeccable throughout the process -- she helped us to thread the needle *perfectly*, coming out on top of a multi-offer situation while still feeling good about our offer! But honestly, my favorite part? It was knowing and experiencing how deeply and truly she CARED about my little home buying journey! Even though she's done this hundreds of times before for hundreds of other people -- you would have thought I was her first and only client, or a dear family friend! She's just THAT KIND OF LOVELY. Even my lender remarked upon how genuine her caring and enthusiasm was for us, knowing that we'd found our (beyond) dream home after looking for some time. To be able to *feel* that level of investment from her, from day one to day last? It's truly priceless, and yet somehow -- somehow?!?! -- her rates are unbelievable!! I'm still gob-smacked that I lucked into finding her. If you've never bought a home before, you won't believe how often you will find yourself on the phone/texting with your agent. So chemistry and personality and good-humanness really MATTERS, and Anita is just the MOST incredible find. Run don't walk to her inbox :)Posted on Google Marina MagnanoSeptember 9, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It is with great pleasure that I can once again give rave reviews for 1% Broker! Hugh and Anita are an incredible team—the kind of professionals you want guiding and supporting you when purchasing a property. I cannot give them enough accolades! They are knowledgeable, efficient, and always looking out for their clients’ best interests. This is the third time I have worked with 1% Broker, and I would never go anywhere else for representation. Hugh and Anita bring a remarkable sense of calm and reassurance, backed by over 30 years of expertise, and they handle every detail of the process with confidence and care. The icing on the cake? Not only is their service unmatched, but they also rebate you money toward your closing costs. If you need a broker or realtor, call Hugh and Anita—you’ll be so glad to have them in your corner!Posted on Google Janet AbrahamsonAugust 15, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anita and Hugh helped me close three transactions totaling over $10 million in the last 6 years, representing me both on the buy side and the listing side. I give them my highest recommendation. Working with a Realtor to buy a primary residence is a very close relationship. Much more so than a typical business relationship. Ideally you’ll be able to get to know each other on a deeper level so that they really get you. There is no other team I would work with. Period. Not only do they know how to get a deal closed, they have a wealth of knowledge about the process and the legal requirements. They patiently walked me through hundreds of pages of disclosures so I could understand exactly what I was signing. On top of that, they score A++ for strategic advice. And their advice is not simply to offer more money, but to condition the offer/counter attractively enough to move the negotiations forward. On the first transaction, they helped me get into escrow before the first open house. With numerous back-up offers, I was still able to get a seller credit. I sold that property in a weak market with a considerably wide bid-ask disparity. We negotiated a deal without going into escrow as I didn’t want to taint the property if it didn’t close. After a few weeks of negotiating and inspections, the day we had a meeting of the minds, we went into escrow all contingencies dropped and had a fast close. Recently they helped me close on a property that had 9 offers, went to a multiple counter and I was not the highest bidder. Less than 2 weeks after closing, the backup offer called Anita to offer me a handsome profit to flip the property as-is. What I have learned on this journey with Hugh and Anita is that they are professional, extraordinarily ethical, tenacious and put the client first. They will offer advice that is contrary to their own benefit. Anita once gave me advice and prefaced it as what she would tell me as my Realtor vs. the advice she would give as a sister. Between Hugh and Anita, their communication is seamless - talking to one is essentially speaking to both of them, so there are no gaps in communications or messages that didn’t get through (it’s remarkable, really). They have worked tirelessly on my behalf, putting themselves completely into each project. And their pricing is so reasonable. If I ever venture back into the real estate world, they will be the first people I call.Load more
