Jimmy Bayan

Jimmy is nothing short of a rock star. Truly, his knowledge of real estate, friendly and pleasant demeanor and dedication to personally ensuring the complete happiness of his clients is unbelievable.
My husband and I fortuitously stumbled upon Jimmy when he was selling some of the neighboring properties in our area. He asked if we had considered selling ourselves, and we casually answered «yes», not knowing what to expect. Well, Jimmy began forwarding us personalized recommendations based on the criteria we had expressed we wanted in our dream house. His picks for housing were dead-​on with our personalities and desires, and appropriately priced. He really listened to our feedback to ensure he was sending us listings relevant to our preferences.
Fast forward a few months and we are living in the house of our dreams — a gorgeous house that is as unique and quirky as my husband and I. :) Moreover, every single step of the process was made seamless by Jimmy’s tireless efforts to support us. He would oversee contractors when we were unable to make time. He reviewed documentation with a professional eye and acted as a liason day and night with banking agents, the client and the other representatives. He is currently assisting us with selling our old house, which under his guidance, got an offer literally the same day of the first open house.
Jimmy, you are so much more than a real estate agent to my husband and I. We cannot thank you enough or commend all of your many wonderful traits with accurate enough praise. You are a gem, a gentleman and a friend. I strongly urge anyone reading this looking for property-​related representation to go with Jimmy.

Jimmy is a class act. He has this really straight-​forward style that I love. He was my agent when I bought my Tri-​Plex. I was in a 1031 Exchange after my divorce and was anxious to get into a property. I called Jimmy to show me a building on Centinela Blvd on the West Side. It was a duplex that needed some work, It was small, but I felt it would work for me. Jimmy walked inside looked around and walked out. He said; «You don’t want this, lets be patient and look for a deal» — At that point I knew he had my best interest at heart. Later in the week, he took me out to look a some more properties. Just when we were about to quit, he asked me to see one more in Mid City and BINGO I was floored. Jimmy guided me through this nightmare escrow where the seller tried to cancel the sale after accepting our offer. The end result was I purchased my beautiful, Spanish Style, 3-​Unit in a fantastic neighborhood at nearly the same price as the duplex Jimmy had urged me not to buy. Not only does it cover my mortgage, but provides a couple thousand dollars beyond that. Jimmy is a shrew negotiator, yet the consummate professional. Through this rocky transaction, he never flinched and assured me it will work out favorably. I can’t say enough. He’s prompt, always kept me in the loop through the escrow with updates. I refer him all my friends and family, because I know they are getting the best representation in Los Angeles. I don’t know a harder working agent in LA. He’s a great father and husband, also. Don’t hesitate to call him if you want the best!

If you’re selling your house or condo you MUST call Jimmy! He assessed my condo and put forth a strategy to get the best price. From staging to photos to reaching out to other realtors, jimmy was aggressive and it paid off. I sold the condo in less than a week at the highest price of any comparable unit In my building or on my street. Even larger units sold for less. Jimmy told me what we could expect and he delivered. And… He’s a good guy to boot.

Jimmy sold my house in the Franklin Hills, an area with a lot of history and personality. He knew the area and the people to bring to the house. My house listed February 11, 2015 and escrow closed March 13, 2015! It sold for asking price. I was ecstatic!
The house had been listed with another agent and agency during the summer of 2014. The there was not much traffic or response to the listing. When I decided to re-​list in 2015 I was VERY careful about picking an agent. I interviewed many agents and a few who I liked ALMOST as much as Jimmy.
But Jimmy was my guy. He took the time to talk to me about what I might do differently and more importantly, what he would do differently for the new listing.
It worked!!!
All the details were handled effortlessly. I knew what to expect and what to do each step of the way. I had never sold a house and needed coaching.
I was really happy with the whole experience.

Jimmy sold my house In the Hollywood Hills. I chose him over other realtors because of his knowledge of the Hollywood Hills, and in particular, his knowledge of my house and the architect who designed it. He really knew the inventory and the area market very well. He had great energy and was very positive. He had great photos taken and got the listing on Curbed LA. All in all, I feel the house was priced well, and we got a good price for it.

Jimmy sold our house in the Hollywood Hills. He’s very knowledgable about the area and had previously interviewed the architect of our unique home so he had a good understanding of the property and how it should be marketed. He priced the house well, hired a great photographer, got us on Curbed which resulted in good turnouts for the open houses. An above asking offer was on the table within a couple weeks.
Once the offer was in, he was totally on top of all aspects of the escrow process. He communicated well any milestones that might be coming up and took care of pretty much everything, we had total peace of mind through the final closing.
All in all, really happy with the service Jimmy provided.

Jimmy was the real estate agent for my recently acquired house I am leasing. Jimmy is a very pleasant and attentive real estate professional who worked very diligently to foster my transaction and I can’t thank him enough for that. If you want an agent that you can trust to get the job done, give Jimmy a shot!

Growing up my dad was always the nice cop who told me I was wonderful and could do no wrong.
Mom on the other hand, was quick to express her displeasure with A-​minuses on report cards, and reminded me that the world was not going to respect me until I earned it first.
Dad held my hand, but mom cared about (and got) results.
As a real estate agent, Jimmy’s style is definitely more like my mom than my dad.
Jimmy will not waste your time. He will tell you how it is — even if it’s something you don’t want to hear. He will be honest and he will aggressively work to complete the transaction. He promptly returns phone calls, stays in contact with you, and pursues deadlines on your behalf.
On 1÷30÷2013 we closed escrow on a 1 bedroom short sale condo in Los Angeles with Jimmy representing me as a buyer.
If you want to work with an agent that will relentlessly pursue your objectives and tells it like it is, visit Jimmy in the gorgeous 11^th floor offices of Keller Williams Hollywood Hills.
