It was our good fortune to have George Fotion as our realtor for the sale of our Palos Verdes Estates home. His professionalism and knowledge was evident at every step and we appreciated his expertise. He actively listened and provided us with sound advice. We had a positive experience and highly recommend George.

George “The-magic-potion” Fotion was great to work with. He helped us to acquire a home in Hermosa Beach. We look forward to creating more family memories in the beautiful community.

Mr. George Fotion is one of the best Real Estate Agents I have ever known. His knowledge of the market, his expertise in the area, his promptness, and willingness to help is all you need to make the purchase process simple. I’ve already recommended him to one of my good friends. When I am looking to buy again I will not hesitate to call him.

George was an absolute delight to work with. His deep understanding of the Rancho Palos Verdes area was unparalleled, providing us with invaluable insights about the local market and recommendations of great inspectors. On top of this, his infectious humor made the process not just informative, but also highly enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend him for anyone seeking a knowledgeable real estate experience in the south bay area.

George made this entire process so easy. As an assistant, helping with purchasing and selling a home is such a pain, and agents don't always make it simple for assistants to get their jobs done. George was incredibly responsive and made the process on both the selling and buying side as easy as it could have been. I could not recommend him more highly!!

Call Realty w George Fotion went above and beyond all expectations. We never met George in person but his quiet, unpretentious efficiency and professionalism was the reason we picked him, and boy are we glad we did!!! We took his advice, allowed him to strategize, and sold the house for 200K above the listing price in 2 days. George knows Palos Verdes, he knows the market, and he knows what he’s doing. Thankyou Call Realty and George Fotion for making everything so smooth and profitable.

I am writing this review to communicate how amazing of a job George did for my parents in helping them sell their house in Rancho Palos Verdes. I researched a lot of brokers/agents for my parents, but what drew me to contact George was the significant number of reviews from people in the same situation as me-elderly parents that were selling their home on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Those reviews were glowing and after working with George I can definitely see why. From day one, George has been the knowledgeable, ethical professional my parents needed to help them with their sale. His deep history of living and working on the Palos Verdes Peninsula provides him with a depth of understanding of the local housing market I did not find in any of the multiple other agents/Brokers that I interviewed. In addition, his understanding of the broader economic trends, the psychology of buyers and sellers, and his ability to communicate this information in a way and everyday person can understand were huge plusses. I can’t say this enough, George’s communication skills are amazing-we always felt informed every step of the way, and he truly forms a partnership with his clients, ensuring they always feel heard. To top it off, his marketing strategy was amazing, producing a huge volume of showings and multiple offers to buy my parent’s property. This review wouldn’t be complete without talking about how great of a negotiator George is. Throughout this process George’s ability to negotiate with Agents and their buyers is something that really wowed my parents and I. To sum it up, from the day my parents signed their listing agreement to the day their escrow closed George had our best interests in heart and delivered amazing service. I would highly recommend George Fotion as a real estate broker for all your real estate needs.

We couldn't have been happier with George's services. His responsiveness was unbelievable. He not only answered all of our questions lightening quick, but he was always 3 steps ahead of us, seeing and addressing things before we even thought of them. He is eminently knowledgeable about not only the process, but the market too. That said, he also was willing to listen to us and talk through approach on things. He also worked extremely hard to get us a great deal. And he DID! Highest recommendation possible!

George is absolutely AMAZING!!! He helped us find and secure our dream home. We are so lucky to have found him, and to be able to work with him, because his level of customer service and communication is off the charts. I recommend using his services if you are serious about buying a home and want to enjoy the process along the way.

George is great help!

George Fotion was able to find a buyer for our vacant land in RPV. He's a very knowledgeable realtor in the South Bay. Knows the history of the area. Great communication, quick to respond and a real problem solver. Selling raw land anywhere is challenging but George was able to get the deal done. He put together a strong marketing plan and hit the ground running to find us a buyer. If you're looking for someone who has the years of experience in the industry and area....George Fotion is your man.

I highly recommend George Fotion for anyone looking for a real estate agent. He was professional, always responsive to calls and emails, and extremely knowledgeable of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. We had an issue that arose from the inspection. He took the reins and expertly guided us through a challenging escrow. He went above and beyond to keep the buyer alive and get the property sold.

We reached out to various agents in the South Bay (Palos Verdes) in our search for a home in the area. George was the most responsive, energetic and passionate. So, we hit it off. He patiently educated us the market conditions in the area, and it did not take long before he understood our parameters as he showed us various homes we were interested in. Of course, he was responsive via texts, calls and emails as we discussed the homes visited. At no point during the process that we felt pressured to enter into contract. He even advised us against a home that we liked because he felt obligated in letting us know the lack of comps to support the listed price in the specific neighborhood. Fast forward a month or so later, we regrouped with George once we identified a target. He was quick in providing a very candid assessment of the pros and cons, and gave us his gut valuation of the home. He also used web analytics from an in-house database of unique user views of the property, and incorporated that into his negotiation tool on our behalf during the contract process. He consistently pushed the bank and appraiser to meet the deadlines for closing. It is worth emphasizing that we came out of the process trusting George ever more in his integrity and diligence.

I can't say enough nice things about George and his efforts to help us sell our parent's home. He was the consummate professional and worked hard to make sure our needs were taken care of quickly and efficiently. He was very patient with all of our questions and timely in his responses to even the most novice of questions. His advice was spot on and he worked incredibly hard to make sure everything was completed in the end. We trusted him completely and were well-rewarded in the end. I thank him so much and most highly recommend him.

Excellent service , quick response ,Very professional , explained all steps in detail , and we sold successfully , I will recommend George to all My friends

We were lucky enough to accidentally run into George as he was representing the seller of the 1st home that we looked at in the RPV neighborhood. My wife and I felt an instant connection with George and we were immediately impressed with his knowledge of the area and his ability to guide us through the process of home buying. He was always there to answer our questions and stayed on top of all involved in the sale the whole way through. 5 stars George!!

As a trusted broker with invaluable experience in the South Bay, George guided us every step of the way with his knowledge and feedback while always keeping our interests at heart. The sale of our home really could not have gone any smoother thanks to George!

We sold our parents’ home thru George Fotion, who’d provided a market valuation estimate of the house for our mother a couple of years earlier. George is a truly warm and caring individual with an uncanny understanding of the Palos Verdes real estate market (locations, home values, buyers, and sellers), a rock-solid process for producing successful sales, and a Rolodex full of great support people. George helped us understand the strengths of the house, advised us on how to address its weaknesses, and provided names for landscape services, repair and inspection contractors, and staging as an integrated team. He provided us with a well-reasoned sale price, two dozen would-be buyers, and five offers. Despite a challenging environment, we sold the house at its suggested list price. Even so, beyond simply doing the job of “selling” the house, George was always ready to answer questions, provide information, insight, and advice, and support the emotional side of this challenging transaction. Palos Verdes is blessed to have George there, and we have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who’s selling a home or looking to find one in the area.

It is a pleasure and a privilege to post this 5 star review and publicly thank George Fotion at Call Realty for the outstanding job he has done for our family with the completed sale of our inherited home , and to express my gratitude on-line for his assistance in so many ways with the responsibilities for managing this aspect of our parents' legacy At the very outset, George laid out a brilliant strategy consistent with our request for an ambitious timeline, and at every step of the way, he has provided hands-on assistance and participation with expert team members to achieve stellar results. The process included inspections, preparations of the house for showing, online marketing exposure, open houses, interactions with buyers agents, and more. The pricing model he developed helped us list with a competitive price to motivate potential buyers, and paired with a powerful marketing strategy combined with integrity and transparency allowed us to realize the true value of the property at time of sale and peace of mind throughout the escrow process. George's professionalism and hard work has culminated in a smooth sales process and has rewarded our family's confidence in him. I give him my highest recommendation him as a listing agent for your home in Palos Verdes or elsewhere in the South Bay.

Our family chose George Fotion to help us sell our parents' home of 52 years in Rancho Palos Verdes and he did a brilliant job. From start to finish, George was thorough, thoughtful and impressively responsive. We especially appreciated his accurate assessment of local market conditions and his honest and sincere approach. His use of clever and unique internet-based material was also impressive. George articulated a simple yet cohesive strategy from the beginning and was extremely organized and helpful throughout the process. He kept his finger on the pulse at every stage, and had creative and effective solutions to situations as they arose. He kept our stress level to a minimum and made this potentially difficult process as smooth as is could be. We would strongly recommend George to be your real estate resource.

George is that one-in-a-million realtor: personable, knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. He goes the extra mile to make sure that his clients thoroughly understand the market, the realities, and the possibilities. And.... best part - he updates in real time! A joy.

Having known George for many years, I knew he would do a fantastic job for us. Not only was he the consummate professional, he also go us multiple terrific offers. He was able to work through the challenges of juggling multiple offers and the outcome was excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend George wholeheartedly.

George Fotion is a great agent. He knows the southern California neighborhoods and the real estate dynamics exceptionally well. We were searching for homes in either the Long Beach or Palos Verdes area and he was extremely helpful in listening to our goals and narrowing the selections down to the perfect properties.

George is a true professional who is passionate about his work. He has extensive knowledge of both real estate and the PV Peninsula. Always a pleasure to work with!

We've been working with George Fotion for over a year and, despite the housing market being an absolute fustercluck thanks to COVID, he has been with us every step of the way. George has a unique style for getting things done with his passionate gungho-ness and that was exactly the type of real estate agent we needed to navigate this temperamental housing market. Thanks to him and his hard work and steadfast dedication, we are now first time homeowners! Absolutely recommend George as the go-to guy if you're in the market to buy a house!

When it comes time to select a real estate agent in the South Bay, George Fotion should be your first choice. Throughout the process George was friendly, knowledgeable, and hands-on, meeting with us when needed and openly communicating at each step. His ability to analyze the area housing “Comps” and strategize on how set the list price were spot-on. Together we determined that listing “as-is” was the best approach for this specific property. George provided terrific resources to handle property photography, property clean-out and even a moving crew. Having dealt with many agents on numerous properties in the past, integrity and responsiveness are key traits we look for . . . George possesses both of these. George’s efforts yielded multiple offers within a few days. Clearly the best real estate professional we have ever worked with.

George did a wonderful job selling our home. It was well marketed and we experienced a steady flow of potential buyers. We had great communication throughout the entire process. He is a nice and is very easy to work with. Highly recommended.

George Fotion is a GOLD star realtor! I've been in the position of thinking of down-sizing , and George has been super informatoive and so helpful: George has gone out of his way to get added information for me. I feel with George, that, of course, he'd benefit from selling my home, but, more importantly, he wants to do a admirable job for me and wants me to be happy with my decision. *One super quality of George is if you email him a question you have an answer pronto- be it good or bad. If he hasn't an answer to your question he contacts someone who does. Can't say enough good things about George!!!!!

George Fotion has a soul. His advice, guidance, expertise is driven solely by what is in the best interest of his client, and never his own. He is a man who can be trusted, who honors his every word, and who is willing to dig in and go the extra distance. I never intended to sell my once in a lifetime luxury estate on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, but George approached me with an opportunity i could not refuse, and it played out exactly as he thought it would- while making the process seamless, painless, and effortless on my part- all while i was living on the east coast. On a scale of 1-10, George Fotion crushes the scale, sets the new standard, and exceeds all expectation. thank you George for everything you did for me.

His office staff as well are very efficient.George is a very special Real Estate extraordinaire. We aren't forgotten even after a sale. He always sends us his Christmas Family greetings which are very fun to read; along with a lovely calendar every year.He IS the best EVER Agent! Sheila and Peter Compton

I've worked with George Fotion on 2 real estate transactions, both buying my home and selling my home. Both times he made the process as easy and seamless as possible. When selling my home, his professional marketing skills attracted multiple offers within the first 2 days of listing, which greatly reduced the stresses of selling. I will definitely use his service again and I encourage anyone looking for an agent to do the same.

George represented us in the purchase of a home in Palos Verdes, and we highly recommend him. From our initial interaction through closing, he was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and trustworthy. He gave thoughtful, accurate, and timely responses to our many questions. The depth of his experience in the local market and skill as a realtor proved to be a tremendous value as we navigated a hot market with limited inventory. We never doubted his integrity—he steered us away from problematic properties and cautioned us against overbidding. From talking to us on Christmas Day about making an offer to putting us in touch with vendors, George has consistently gone above and beyond for us as clients. His insight was invaluable in negotiating and ultimately making the right to decision for our family. You can’t go wrong with engaging George as your agent.

My wife and I recently purchased a house is Rancho Palos Verdes. Our realtor was George Fotion. We had a very complicated purchase process and George was there with us every step of the way. George’s knowledge of the Palos Verdes Peninsula is unrivaled. If you’re looking for an honest, knowledgeable realtor that will truly work for you, then George is your guy.

George Fotion provided an invaluable service in the sale of my parent's home in Palos Verdes Estates. He helped me navigate through a seemingly endless list of issues that arose in preparing an older property for sale, including trust issues, permits, water damage and reconstruction, etc. He was always available to tackle the issues as the came up. He has a deep understanding of the real estate market in Palos Verdes and a unique ability to get things done efficiently and effectively. I could not have been more satisfied with the experience and the outcome.

My brothers and I have been involved in wheeling and dealing in real estate all our adult lives. We hardly ever use realtors, but we hired George to sell a house in Palos Verdes because none of us were around. It turns out that George was the best realtor any of us have ever run into! And, his clients got the house because of his novel and very interesting way he wrote up the offer; it put them first among multiple bidders. He is the only realtor that I would recommend to a friend!

George is a remarkable, hard working and brilliant realtor. I asked several questions regarding value, marketability and the market himself. His responses allowed me to make a reasoned, other than emotional, decision. I recommend Mr. George Fotion enthusiastically and fully.

To my surprise, George was able to sell my house! My husband found George through recommendations and I reluctantly agreed to put our house on the market thinking it was never going to sell. He was able to sell our house without any open houses and we even stopped showing the inside after the first two weeks. He was able to make the process as non-intrusive as possible. He was very professional and kept us informed. The whole process was very easy and it speaks to his expertise and experience in the local real estate market. Thank you George for taking such great care of us.

George helped me purchased my beautiful home in RPV. He provided exceptional service and expertise from making a very informed decision in the beginning to financing and explaining meticulous details about the home. He is very knowable about the housing market, extremely patient in explaining even the smallest details, very responsive in answering phone calls, texts, and emails. And most of all, just nice to talk with. I would definitely recommend George if you are hunting for a house, considering investing in the real estate market, or making a decision to sell.

He is not only a great real estate agent, but most importantly a terrific human being. We look forward to working with George again in the future.
