Testimonials

My Agent to Agent experience could have not been any smoother! Sammy and Marisa were both amazing. Great agents and their clients were very fortunate to have them.

Sammy and Marisa were both absolutely incredible all throughout the process of buying a home. They made everything clear and hid nothing about the realities of looking for a home and the process of financing it as well. They have a great team with good people and I’m glad I went with them in my home buying endeavor.

Sammy was a fantastic agent to work with. This was a difficult transaction for a handful of reasons, but Sammy ensured that we got it done. He was a pleasure to work with and true professional.

Working with Sammy Lyon is always an absolute pleasure. We recently teamed up on two incredible transactions — one for first-time homebuyers who secured their dream single-family home in Los Angeles, and another for a client who purchased 20 acres of land in Malibu to live off-grid.

Sammy is a dream agent to collaborate with. His communication is always clear, timely, and professional, which makes every transaction seamless from start to finish. He’s a true advocate for his clients, always negotiating strategically and ensuring they get the best possible outcome.

As a lending partner, I can confidently say that working with Sammy elevates every deal. He brings expertise, empathy, and an unwavering commitment to helping his clients achieve their real estate goals.

It was a full circle moment to work with Sammy! He was my teacher/mentor during high school when he was in academia, before real estate. When I was ready to start my home buying journey, I called Sammy right away because I trusted his guidance. From the first conversation, Sammy talked me through the ins and outs, gave me all the information to make informed decisions, answered my frantic calls and texts, and was with me with friends and family to receive my keys. I could not think of a better realtor to be in your corner because he will fight for you and make things happen. His values and work with non-profits and social justice causes make him the perfect person to help anyone in the home buying process. I can’t wait to continue working with him.

Sammy was a pleasure to work with – professional, communicative, and collaborative from start to finish. He represented his buyers with care and helped make the transaction smooth for everyone involved. Would happily work together again!

Working with Sammy Lyon is like have a trusted advisor, neighborhood expert, and skilled negotiator all rolled into one. What truly sets Sammy apart is patience, care & integrity. Whether you are selling or buying your your first or 10th home; when working with Sammy you never feel like a transaction – you feel heard, respected, and supported every step of the way.

I am so glad I found Sammy. I researched many real estate professionals, and his bio highlighted the experience I was looking for. His personal touch, attention to detail, and his connections in the industry were invaluable. He listened to what I wanted and helped me find the perfect property. You will not be disappointed if you choose Sammy as your real estate professional.

My partner and I enjoyed our experience with Sammy and their team! Words cannot explain how happy and grateful I feel to have had this team through out our housing journey. We never had thought we would be able to buy a house but Sammy gave us the confidence to go for it and I am happy to say we are now homeowners! I appreciated all the support we got and we were able to get answers to our questions quick with no judgment. I will forever be grateful for all the support. Thank you!

Working with Sammy Lyon has been a life-saving experience. Sammy is so genuinely authentic, professional, patient, experienced, and personable. I actually met him through a mutual friend years ago, and we kept in touch through the community events he has for clients. I hadn’t even worked with him but I would attend the events. This year I needed to sell my house and our agent-client relationship actually began. First thing Sammy asked me was, “What do YOU want to do?” He gave me all my options and his advice. When I was sure I wanted to sell, Sammy jumped into gear with pictures, listings, potential buyers, and appointments for viewings. What I appreciate most is how Sammy always heard me, fought for me, was honest with me, kept me focused, and guided me through the process because as a first time homebuyer and seller–there were so many things I didn’t know. Sammy truly CARED for ME–the buyer. There’s so many real estate agents who just want to make a deal in their best interest with no care or concern for what happens to the buyer after. They get their cut either way. Sammy focuses on his client. For women, first time homebuyers, or anyone who doesn’t fully know the ins and outs of buying or selling–you’re going to need someone on your side. You’re going to need someone who makes the best deal for YOU. You’re going to need someone with the patience to explain what you don’t understand, and the professional expertise and network to get the best deal made on your behalf. There’s so many details, papers to sign, and ways for a client to get lost or less than they deserve that a real estate agent with a good heart and good business mind is essential to the process! I sincerely recommend Sammy for anyone looking for a great agent. When I buy again, it will ABSOLUTELY be with Sammy. The first and only call I will ever make when it comes to buying or selling property. Thank you SO much, Sammy!

We bought a single-family home in El Sereno with Sammy Lyon’s help, and we were up against 12 offers—but thanks to his guidance and strategy, we got the house. His communication was outstanding—not just with us, but also with the seller’s side—and he made every step feel clear and manageable. Even when he had a vacation planned during escrow, he was so responsive and organized that it felt like he never left.

I called Sammy in a crisis situation about my property. I needed financial guidance and direction on how to develop the property. He didn’t know me at all but listened to all the details of my story and took them seriously. He referred me to a number of financial experts and did his own research on how best to proceed with development (or why not to!). He also kept in close touch with me until all my questions were answered.
He was a huge help to me when I needed advice but didn’t lean me in one direction or the other. He is a great resource and sounding board. If I decide to sell my property, he would be the man! I can’t say enough about my amazing experience with him.
