Luxury Homes and Real Estate - Sotheby’s International Realty

Laura Shnitzer has been helping people buy and sell real estate in the Los Angeles area for over ten years. With a wide range of knowledge, experience and expertise in the LA market, Laura brings integrity, outstanding service and expert negotiating skills to her clients and all of her transactions, and can guide clients through this process with confidence and ease.

Although Laura specializes in the Hollywood Hills and West Hollywood areas, she has sold real estate from downtown LA to the beach and has represented both the buyer and seller throughout her career. As a Realtor, Laura has vast experience in all realms of the real estate business including the residential market, condo market and investment market. She also knows first hand what her clients experience when buying or selling real estate because she has bought, sold and rehabbed property herself. She knows that whether buying or selling, the process can be very stressful. She likes to minimize the stress and help people achieve their goals and create their dreams.

Outstanding service, integrity and experience are certainly key elements that Laura brings to all of her clients, but community and giving back are also cornerstones of her philosophy and business. Laura loves where she lives, and she lives where she works. She loves her neighborhood, a small-character filled pocket in the heart of Los Angeles, close to the hills and all that a vibrant city has to offer. The area is a great dog walking neighborhood, where wonderful period architecture is abundant and everyone knows their neighbors. Laura finds a real feeling of community that is often absent in a major urban setting, as well as an abundance of creativity, great architecture and diversity. Laura thrives on knowing what her clients want and getting it for them, whether it's the best price for their home or the right home for her clients. She also likes to give back by donating a certain percentage of every transaction to a charity or cause. Her favorites include animal shelters and rescue organizations.
