Testimonials
“I had the pleasure of working with Richard Ehrlich recently on a property search in Malibu. I found him highly professional, fully informed about all aspects of the market, thoughtful, intelligent, and fully committed to making the best deal for us rather than a quick deal. Richard was always available, and immediately responsive to questions and the resolution of issues, many of which he guided us to consider for our benefit. He came to us highly recommended by friends who had worked with him in the past and who are very involved in the real estate market, and he met and exceeded their laudatory description of his capabilities and performance. I would enthusiastically recommend Richard to anyone seeking assistance in pursuing a real estate transaction. ”

“I would HIGHLY recommend Richard Ehrlich from Westside Estate Agency. I was deeply impressed with his dedication and vast knowledge of the real estate market. He knew exactly how to sell my home and he did....for over asking price! I cannot speak highly enough of him.”
— Sonya Rosenfeld, Creative Artists Agency
“When Richard sold my house after only one showing, I was convinced that he’s the only realtor I’ll ever need. His knowledge, professionalism and incredible instincts have led to excellent outcomes. It is truly a pleasure to work with Richard – I’ve found that he keeps his client’s best interests in sharp focus and you can always trust that he is on top of every detail, big and small, which brings great peace of mind in any real estate transaction.”

“We knew immediately that we wanted to list our house with Richard. He didn't smother us with the standard pitch. Richard went through the house, told us candidly what we needed as well as what we didn't need. He came up with a plan for selling the house which made a lot of sense to us, and you arranged for a buyer who you had in mind to see the house that afternoon. To our amazement and delight that buyer made an all cash offer the next morning for the full asking price. You never even had a chance to have it listed on the MLS! We know this doesn't happen every day, but it would never have happened without your being so well connected in the community. His professionalism and sense of humor are an unbeatable combination. We would recommend Richard Ehrlich without hesitation to any prospective client.”
— Bob Bookman & Debbie Wambach
“Richard has represented me five times over the past twenty years, both as a buyer and a seller. Each and every time I’ve felt considered, protected and he has never once wasted my time. Richard has excellent taste, which helps - but it is his integrity, attention to detail and follow through that make him an exceptional realtor. I cannot imagine buying or selling a property without his expert guidance which extends well beyond the sale.”
— Eve Somer
“Richard has worked his way up from newly minted agent in 2000 to become a partner at WEA. During this time he has proven his tenacity, loyalty, work ethic and more importantly his knowledge of the business and the market. Anyone, be it buyer or seller, who chooses to hire Richard will be obtaining the best representation possible.”
— Stephen Shapiro, Founder Westside Estate Agency
“Richard has represented us on numerous home purchases and sales over the past ten years. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and has excellent taste. What most impressed us is when you hire Richard, you get Richard. He was personally at all showings, inspections, and negotiations. This was invaluable for feeling our interests were protected. He was nuanced in every detail of all transactions. We couldn't recommend a more highly skilled or professional real estate agent.”
— Greg Hodes, WME & Heidi Hertel
“When you are dealing with selling a home in almost all cases it’s your most prized investment and that’s tied up with a great deal strategy and emotion. Richard advised on staging the home, timing of when to list and setting a price that would garner multiple bids. His knowledge of the area was on point and was ALWAYS responsive to calls, emails and questions. Above all else he was easy to work with and gave incredibly valuable advice evaluating the offers that came in for us.”
