If This Sounds Familiar

The math that worked ten years ago doesn't work anymore.

If you're a West LA property owner sitting on meaningful equity, three forces are quietly reshaping the decision to hold or sell. Most agents will tell you one side. I'll show you all three — in 30 minutes.

01

Your cash flow isn't what it used to be.

AB 1482 capping increases. Vacancy costs. A mortgage rate locked in at 3.5% you can never touch again. The yield on your equity is likely a fraction of what it could be.

02

A straight sale could cost you six figures.

Capital gains, depreciation recapture, and Measure ULA can hand 30–50% of your equity to the government. A properly structured 1031 is the legal path to defer all of it.

03

You need real numbers — not another pitch.

Every agent will tell you "now is a great time to sell." You deserve the actual net-proceeds math on your property — so you can decide whether any of this is even worth it.

What Happens In Your 30 Minutes

Three steps. No fluff. No pressure.

You'll walk away with a clear picture of your options and a specific next step — whether that's starting the process, waiting, or doing nothing at all.

1

Book your time slot

Pick any 30-minute slot on my calendar. Share your property address and a couple of quick notes — I'll do the prep work so we don't waste time on the call.

2

We run your real numbers

On the call, we'll walk through your net equity, tax exposure, and a side-by-side of a straight sale vs. a 1031 exchange — using your actual property, not a template.

3

You leave with a plan

By the end of our call, you'll know exactly what your options are, what each path would net you, and what the next step looks like — with no obligation to take it.

What Clients Say

The numbers, plainly laid out.

Ryan actually ran the numbers before telling us what to do. We almost sold without thinking about the 1031 and would have lost $160K to taxes. He saved us from ourselves.

Former condo owners · Mar Vista

I've worked with three agents in LA. Ryan is the only one who talks like an investor. He owns property himself and actually knows depreciation and exchange timelines.

David K.
Rental property owner · West LA

The consultation was the most valuable hour I've spent on real estate in ten years. No sales pitch. Just the math, clearly. I knew exactly what to do by the end.

About Ryan

I've done this myself.

I'm a West LA Realtor at Keller Williams — and more importantly, I'm a real estate investor. I know what a 1031 timeline actually feels like.

Most agents will tell you to list. My job is different: help you figure out whether selling is actually the right move — and if it is, protect as much of your equity as legally possible. That's what this consultation is for.

Honest Answers

Questions before we talk?

No catch. Yes — really free. I offer this consultation because most property owners make the sell/hold/exchange decision without ever seeing real numbers, and I'd rather earn your trust with useful information than with a sales pitch. If you eventually decide to sell or exchange, I'd love to represent you. If not, that's fine too.
Book the consultation anyway. The best time to run the numbers is before you need to make a decision. Understanding your equity position, tax exposure, and replacement options now lets you plan your timeline strategically — not reactively.
Absolutely. Most of my consultations are with owners who have never done a 1031. I'll walk you through the mechanics — the 45-day identification window, the 180-day close, what qualifies, and what kills the deal — in plain English, with your specific numbers.
No. The entire reason I call this a "no-obligation" consultation is because it is. If your numbers say hold, I'll tell you hold. If a different agent is a better fit, I'll say that too. I'd rather earn a referral six months from now than push a bad decision today.
Just your property address, approximate equity, and anything that's been on your mind. I'll do the prep work — pulling recent comps, running preliminary tax estimates, and sketching a 1031 framework — so our 30 minutes is actually useful.
Most realtors are great at selling. Few can speak fluently about depreciation recapture, ULA implications, or replacement-property cash-flow modeling. I invest in real estate myself and specialize in 1031 exchanges — so you're talking to someone who thinks about this the way an investor would.
