Melea Avrach / Compass - Pasadena, California

Sasha B.

Melea is a fantastic realtor that helped us navigate the sale of our home. What we expected to be a daunting and stressful undertaking was made extremely smooth due to her outstanding service and availability throughout the process. We were able to sell our home extremely quickly and without any hang ups during closing. I can’t recommend her enough!

I recently bought a house and sold a house with Melea. She made my real estate dreams come true with both transactions. She took time to understand my reasons for moving, and recommended the perfect neighborhood for my search - somewhere I hadn’t considered looking but am so happy to live in now. When we found my dream house, she gave me advice to make a strong offer, including connecting me to an amazing lender. She guided me through the process, explained everything to me so I understood the terms of the deal, and made the transaction go smoothly. Then, she sold my old house quickly and for a great price. She connected me to the best handymen and contractors to get the house ready to sell and managed the renovations. Whenever a problem came up, she always presented it with a solution and a backup plan. Melea is honest, hardworking, well-connected, and a delight to work with.

Melea was a fantastic asset during our home buying journey. As first time home buyers, we were beyond nervous - especially during a pandemic! We probably would have put it off for several more years if it weren’t for Melea. She held our hands, so to speak, answered our questions and lead us gently through the whole process. We found the best house for us and are so grateful. If you need a realtor in Los Angeles and want a luxury experience, you can’t go wrong with Melea Avrach!

Melea is an amazing realtor in Pasadena, CA. She was an incredible partner to us in our real estate journey to buy our first house. We started with her in May of 2022, and she rode the weird waves of the summer/fall '22 real estate market with us. As first-time buyers, we had a lot of questions, and she was there for us every step of the way with expert guidance, perspective, and a fantastic sense of humor. We felt as if we were getting a luxury service agent even though we were buying on the low end of the Pasadena market. We found our house in December of 2022, and Melea helped us navigate escrow and closing through the holiday season. Even after we closed and moved in, she helped us find house-related vendors and we've had great experiences with them all. We are so happy with our house, and so grateful to Melea.

We couldn’t have worked with a better realtor than Melea Avrach when we decided to sell our hillside home in Mt. Washington. Melea is an ace in the real estate game. A consummate professional that really knows the North East Los Angeles / NELA market, she is also super warm and supportive, an excellent communicator, always on top of everything, and full of great ideas for workable strategies. Selling a beloved house that has been your family home for a long time is about more than getting the best offer. (Of course, we did get it!) It can be a challenging experience, but Melea isn’t just incredibly well-versed in the real estate field, she is also an exceptionally warm and compassionate person. She is truly a gem, and I highly recommend working with her and relying on her tremendous expertise and luxury service.

Working with Melea Avrach & Associates has been an absolute pleasure and a game-changer in the world of Trust sales and buying real estate. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication have not only made the process seamless but also incredibly rewarding.

We initially approached Melea Avrach & Associates to sell our family estate in Altadena, CA. From the very beginning, they impressed us with their in-depth knowledge of the market, strategic approach, and unparalleled attention to detail. They meticulously assessed every aspect of the property, from its unique features to its historical significance, and devised a tailored marketing plan that showcased its full potential. Thanks to their expertise, our estate sold swiftly and at a price that exceeded our expectations.

But the journey didn't end there. With the successful sale of our estate, we entrusted Melea Avrach with helping us find our dream home in Bel Air, CA. Once again, she proved to be an invaluable asset in navigating the competitive luxury market. Melea listened attentively to our preferences and tirelessly searched for properties that met our criteria. Melea’s keen eye for quality and understanding of our needs ensured that we found the perfect home that surpassed our wildest dreams.

Melea is more than a luxury service agent, she's a friend. She really listens to her clients, learns what they are looking for, and fights to get them what they want. It all feels effortless in fact. She is available literally 24/7 and handled our worries and concerns as if she is a professional therapist! We sold our hillside property in Highland Park for way more than we had expected, with little to work with, and bought our new, bigger and much nicer home...for less! In this market! Though our new home had multiple bidders chomping at the bit and there were some closing hiccups on the buyer's side, she was able to get us all closed in a timely and painless fashion -- at Christmastime, no less. Melea never stops working and is always quick to find homes that creatives and industry folks like us love. I've met several other buyers who've worked with her, and they have all been nothing but satisfied with the whole process. We truly value Melea and her help with the Compass app, which made looking for and comparing homes very simple, not to mention the ability to borrow funds through Compass Concierge in order to finish the house we were trying to sell and make it more marketable. She even helped us with staging. We will always refer her to friends and use her again when we are back on the market. Thanks, Melea!
