What our clients are saying
“Julie and Sara were great to work with and helped us find our dream home in Silver Lake. They were responsive and helped us through all the ups and downs of looking for and buying a home. While home buying in LA can be daunting, they gave us the confidence and guidance we needed throughout the process.
Both Julie and Sara are also incredibly real. They doesn't sell to you; instead, they show you homes and highlights the pros and cons both as experts and locals to the area. When we attended open houses, they noted realistic updates we would need to make certain locations more comfortable based on our needs. As people who are straight-forward, we greatly appreciated this honesty.
Julie and Sara held our hands throughout the process and provided unwavering support. We are forever grateful!”
— Kathleen Higashiyama
“As a fellow real estate professional who recently closed a transaction with Julie Mollo and Sara Franco, I can confidently say it was a complete pleasure working with their team. They were consistently responsive throughout the entire escrow, extremely accommodating whenever we needed to coordinate inspections, walkthroughs, or property access, and always stayed on top of the details.
What stood out most was their professionalism and consideration toward both sides of the transaction. They helped create a smooth and cooperative process from start to finish, which ultimately made for a better experience for everyone involved. I truly appreciated the opportunity to work together and would gladly do so again in the future.”
— Jack Harriman
“Julie and Sara helped my family purchase our first home, and we couldn’t have asked for better guides through the process. They were patient with us as we learned the ins and outs of home buying, and they quickly understood what we were looking for. When our wishlist didn’t quite match our budget, they gently but honestly helped set our expectations.
And they are truly well-connected! It felt like every agent we encountered already knew and loved working with them. They also surrounded us with a great support network including our lender and inspectors who shared their same approach — kind, warm, and dependable.
Our path to closing wasn’t exactly smooth — we closed a week before Christmas! But they handled every curveball with calm and grace. We can’t recommend them enough. We are thrilled to be homeowners and will always be grateful for our friends Julie and Sara.”
— Satish Kunisi
“Julie and her team worked hard, and showed incredible dedication and care throughout the process of purchasing our home. From start to finish, they made the process feel effortless, and we’re so grateful for their steady guidance and expertise every step of the way. From open house visits to final punch list negotiations - and everything in between - their professionalism and grace truly shined.”
— Antonio Guzman
“After three years of searching for a home, submitting dozens of offers, and facing rejections, I felt discouraged and decided to part ways with my previous real estate agent.
Then, on the same day, I found a home I instantly fell in love with. Though skeptical, I decided to reach out to Julie and ask her for her help on a trial run. It took Julie and her team just one offer (two, if you count the final one) to secure the home I’m in now. Once the offer was accepted, Julie and the team executed flawlessly. I didn’t realize it at the time, but Julie is well-established, recognized, and highly connected within the community, able to move quickly by involving the right people when needed. I felt confident and in control throughout a process that could have been chaotic and stressful—thanks to Julie.
My biggest takeaway from this experience is the importance of finding a strong executor and a local real estate expert. Julie is exactly that. She has in-depth knowledge of the ever-changing market and a strong understanding of the greater Los Angeles area. While I can’t guarantee you’ll have a one-offer experience like mine, after working with Julie, I can confidently say she is THE EXPERT you should trust. I’m grateful to have found not just my forever real estate agent, but also a friend.”

“Julie is truly the best. I've worked with her on a couple different properties and she has always been kind, helpful, communicative, and completely open. I came to her with a long list of hopes for a property and she worked overtime to deliver. She led us to a house that ticked all of our boxes and more. I can't recommend her enough!”
— SAM
“Julie Mollo and her team are just what the doctor ordered! For selling our home, their detailed process worked wonders. We thank them for their expertise, timing and always being available. It truly was a pleasure working with them, and we strongly recommend them!”
— Dr. Richard and Lena
"We really cannot praise Julie, Sara, and the rest of the team enough for the effort and attention they put into helping us secure an amazing home. As first time homebuyers, and considering how competitive and quickly things move, you could definitely say we felt intimidated by the whole process. However, the level of professionalism, communication, transparency, and patience they exhibited helped us feel so at ease throughout the entire process. Never once did we feel pushed, swayed or influenced into doing anything we didn't feel 100% confident in, and they were so patient with every question we raised, doubt we had, or comment we made. We had a couple friends ask us what advice we would give for other first time homebuyers and immediately I said to connect with the right team and everything else will fall into place. We always felt right at home with Julie and Sara, who treated us like human beings first, and clients second. I would recommend Julie Mollo's group time and again, and I know who I'll be calling when future me is looking again. Thanks again to the team, we could not have done any of this without you!"
— Jeremy
“When my husband and I decided to explore homebuying in LA, we are 100% so glad we came across Sara. Being new to everything, we were a bit intimidated and had LOTS of questions. Sara was a champ and made sure we knew exactly what we were up against, answered our questions thoroughly, and made sure we felt good about each decision. She truly cared for our personal needs and goals when looking at homes, never once rushed us into doing anything we weren't sure on, and took time when she could to meet us for open houses. She communicated clearly and thoughtfully, and checked in adequately without pressure – which we really appreciated. We didn't think we'd get the house that we ultimately wanted, but somehow did!! Very grateful that Sara & Julie were there to ease us through the whirlwind of closing – they're very good (and fast) at what they do.
Sara and her team at Julie Mollo Homes Group are the sweetest people, and are often hosting some kind of fun/educational community event. I'd highly recommend attending one of these events or workshops! It's a great way to learn more about real estate and meet the team.”

"We were so lucky to have found Julie. She immediately understood the type of home we were looking for and worked tirelessly to find it for us. Her enthusiasm and patience throughout the search was amazing. Once she found the home she knew would be perfect for us she was able to get us in for a viewing before anyone else saw it! After our offer was accepted she guided us through the entire closing. We don’t know what we would have done without her. Her experience in the industry and her joyful energy made the complex process calm and efficient. Now that we have moved in we are lucky to count her as a neighbor. We look forward to relying on her wisdom and generosity in the future!”
— MATT & LIZ
"We met Julie at an open house and were really drawn to her passion for LA and eye for design. As first time buyers, we were so nervous about finding the right realtor. As soon as we contacted her, she was so willing to answer all of our questions and was super flexible with our very tight schedules. Julie has so much knowledge and experience with many of the neighborhoods we were interested in and we felt safe and secure with our decision to work with her. She is well connected in the real estate game and values good communication and strong work ethic. She has been an absolute pleasure to work with! Even during this very competitive and unpredictable market, she was positive, encouraging, and supportive. Who knew she could double up as our real estate agent/therapist ;) We found our dream home after a short 1.5 month search and it was all due to her hard work and dedication! Even after close of escrow, she continues to play an important role in connecting us with people in the community who can help us make our new home everything we wish!"

"My partner and I cannot say enough good things about Julie. We are first-time home buyers and were understandably both excited and anxious. Julie made the experience fun, creative and informative throughout the entire process. She was always available for us and patiently answered each and every question we had with expertise and enthusiasm. She also put us in touch with reputable lenders, movers, designers, inspectors. Her experience and knowledge of the Los Angeles housing market is rivaled by none, as far as we are concerned. Daily, she would send us out comps and keep us in the loop of new listings. When we found the right place, she was quick, efficient and flawless. Basically, it’s like this: she showed us homes based on our needs and desires; she found us the perfect home at the perfect price; she instrumented the acquisition of that house, and guided us step by step from down payment to close of escrow. Beyond her keen business savvy and her immense knowledge is a delightful and warm person, always there to greet us with a smile and reassure us we had made the right decision."
— PAUL & TIM
"I have been working with Julie over the past 5 years on a move to Los Angeles. I first meet her at an open house in the Hollywood Hills and stayed in contact and once I was ready to make the commitment to a move, enlisted Julie’s help. From the beginning, she provided expert insight into the Los Angeles real estate market, the buying process as well as having a keen sense of what was going to be the right house for me. Working together we finally found an amazing house when I walked into it I knew it was ” the one.” Julie skillfully guided me through a tricky escrow with several unexpected issues that needed real professionalism and experience to deal with. But, 30 days later, my dream home closed and she really made the house of a lifetime mine. I wholeheartedly recommend Julie as “the one” for your real estate needs in Los Angeles."
— STEVE
“Julie is super thoughtful, personal, helpful and patient! Julie helped us find a home that fit our needs on a tight timeline, all the while familiarizing us with neighborhoods and providing detailed context for each place we considered. Julie went above and beyond to check in with us, connect us with people and places, and has continued to follow up with support and connections! Thank you!!”
— BUYER IN LOS ANGELES
"If you are looking to either buy or sell in the Los Angeles area, you couldn’t find a better realtor than Julie Mollo. She sold my townhouse above asking price with multiple offers and then easily guided me through the ensuing paperwork including quick responses to phone calls and emails. At this same time, we were in the market for a new home. Julie demonstrated a great knowledge of the market as she found just the right houses for us to view. She got to know us on a personal level and listened carefully so that she could find exactly what we were looking for. Although there were multiple offers on our “dream house,” Julie was able to procure the bid in our favor. Following the purchase of our home, she gave us excellent recommendations for professional services in the area. She went well beyond what we expected, and we were more than pleased that we chose her as our realtor."
— KALLI STAEHLING
"I have been a client of Julie’s for over 2 years, and I cannot say enough great things about her. She is smart, patient, and very easy to work with. Her professionalism and real estate expertise never cease to impress. I am currently living in my “dream home” thanks to Julie. Even though the house was priced out of our range, she convinced us to make our best offer. After it was rejected, Julie kept checking in with the seller’s agent over the course of 5 weeks, and her persistence payed off. A new price was agreed upon, and we moved in 33 days later. She is a great realtor and friend. I look forward to working with her again in the future."
— DANIELLE & BRENT
“Couldn't have been better. What amazed me the most was how Julie just knew what was the right house for us so quickly into the process. She showed us one -- going out of her way to say she felt it was a truly special house. And it was more perfect for us than we could have imagined. She was with us through the whole financing process and us being new to the US, was always happy to jump in and explain anything.”
