One Percent Broker

I couldn't recommend Hugh and Anita more highly when buying or selling a house. They were persistent (worked with us for 1+ year, 2 houses in escrow), professional (highly knowledgable about real estate nuances / contracts), and a pleasure to work with (made sure we felt good about purchase). On top of all of this, you will save a lot of money with the 1+% cash back.
My wife and I were looking for a house for roughly 1 year, and Hugh and Anita were always patient and responded quickly to all of our requests for tours. When we finally found a house and had an accepted offer, another house popped

I am so GRATEFUL and I can't say thank you enough to 1% Brokers, Realtors. They are the best and I really really recommend them. Hugh (my father figure) and Anita worked around the clock and on weekends tirelessly to make me a homeowner. Marine tirelessly accompanied me on home visits and she was always on time.
At my early age of 26 years with limited finances, and knowledge about buying a home they gave me parental love, support, guidance and professionally doing everything possible to make my home buying process really smooth, and I am now a HOMEOWNER in this tough market.

My husband and I started out with very little knowledge about the home buying process. Anita and Hugh were there for us every step of the way which made us more informed and confident as buyers. They both have the experience, expertise, and professionalism that served us well in procuring our dream home. There were some hiccups along the way but it was handled perfectly. They went beyond their roles as brokers and we look to them as friends whom we can trust. With the pandemic and the competitive housing market, it is an amazing feat that we were able to acquire the home that we really wanted.

1% Broker is absolutely the best. Hugh and his team are extremely thorough, deeply informed and leave no stone unturned to ensure a successful outcome of your real estate transaction. My recent property purchase would have failed without the support and advice provided by Hugh. We were under tight timelines and had several parties who needed support and constant communication to keep the deal moving. Without Hugh, I would not own the property I own today. Moving forward, I refuse to work with anyone else! Hugh is simply the best.

Hugh and Anita were great to work with buying my home. They are very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and pleasant to work with. They made the daunting process of buying a home seem very easy and straightforward and are very responsive and I always felt like they were looking after my best interest. They guide you through the whole process efficiently while saving thousands of dollars with the commission return. I would definitely highly recommend them.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value
Hugh and Anita made buying my first home as easy, stress free and quick as possible (especially during Covid)! They were always available for any questions, taught me what I needed to know and were extremely trustworthy. Would definitely recommend this great team!

We could not be MORE enthusiastic in our recommendation of Hugh and Anita for your next home purchase!! Hugh and Anita recently helped my wife and I purchase our second home. We started with very broad search criteria across neighborhoods in Los Angeles and a range of homes all the way from “move-in ready“ to ones requiring a complete tear down. The guidance and insight they provided was critical in our ability to evaluate all the different options and understand the pros and cons of each property we considered. They responded to texts within minutes and arranged showings for us almost instantaneously

A seamless and absolutely amazing experience we had with Hugh as our realtor in the Los Angeles area. We have recently bought a house and have been more than happier with the hard work and dedication that he put into making it happen in a timely manner. His knowledge was invaluable and helped us save thousands of dollars.
He always made me and my family feel like his #1 priority. I am confident in saying that if you are looking for a realtor in the Los Angeles area, I highly recommend him.

I can't say enough to relate how pleased I was with Hugh and Anita. I'm not one that hesitates to ask questions when I'm in unknown territory and they happily gave informed responses to each and every one. Any reservations you may have regarding a discount realtor should be completely dispelled with this team. Buying or selling a home is the largest transaction most people have in their lives. If you want to feel confident every step of the way, you can't go wrong having Hugh represent you.

My wife and I decided to try 1% Broker on our third home purchase and we could not be happier with the smooth process. Having gone through previous escrows, Hugh made the entire transaction so much easier than we expected. from start to finish, He was professional, knowledgeable, and very patient with all of our questions. We would not hesitate to use this company in the future and highly recommend this company.

Hugh and his associate Anita somehow managed to get me through a complicated purchase with unrestricted giving of their time, effort and knowledge. Throughout, I was able to feel confident with every decision due to their willingness to respond to the barrage of questions that must have felt nonstop to them. Hour long conference calls and more emails than I care to count were the daily norm. This is the total dedication to the task you only dream of when making what is most likely, one of the largest purchases in your lifetime. A very rare instance for someone like myself, I don't have a single

I wrote this review years ago and I'd say the exact same raving review of 1%broker now. It's amazing how Hugh will still give me advice whenever I need it. He is my trusted advisor on all real estate issues. Now, please read my review from 2010. --------- 6/4/2010 I just had the greatest experience buying my first home because of the individual care of One Percent Broker. I assumed a discount broker would not take care of me in this unknown process of finding, negotiating and buying a home.
I really knew nothing about this business but that was okay because I had the guidance of Hugh Borax. He

Thanks to Hugh and Anita, we are living in our dream midcentury modern view home AND we saved TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS on the purchase because of their reduced commission. All along the way, Hugh and Anita provided valuable guidance and advice. Aside from requiring the Buyer to find the house, they provide every service that a FULL SERVICE broker provides. Hugh got us in to see a house the same day that I contacted him for a home that it turned out already had an offer on it. Later that day, our offer was the one the Sellers accepted and we were in escrow - before the first open house,

John was our agent and he did a fantastic job representing us. Very professional and knowledgeable. He stayed on top everything and did a great job communicating with us and the listing agent. John genuinely cares.

Hugh was easy to work with and very helpful. We completed a private sale as a buyer, and we were going to do it without a broker. The seller suggested hiring a low cost broker to keep everything on track and to help with all the paperwork. There was a lot of paperwork. I'm glad they hired Hugh. He represented both sides and was always available to answer questions and send us documents to sign electronically. He kept everything on track and made sure everyone's needs were met.

We had the pleasure of working with Hugh on a recent home purchase. He was the consummate professional in terms of satisfying our requests, handling tough negotiations with counter-parties, and being available as needed for consultation. Hugh's services are a great fit for those who are proactive and have some knowledge about the industry. Offering discount brokerage services does not mean any less quality--quite the opposite--Hugh was one of the best realtors we've worked with on either the buying or selling side.

This is a shady business. BEWARE.

I contacted Hugh to see what were his actual costs charged when selling a home after reading another reviewer stating that he found in the small print of his contract that Hugh actually charges a minimum of $8,000 when selling a home.

Hugh refused to answer the direct question and stated "Thank you for contacting us. We respectfully pass, but wish you good luck with your sale"

Hugh try to be professional....you obviously have been called out on NOT being HONEST with your deceitful advertisement. The other reviewer said they found in your micro

To Hugh who replied; There's a reason I was not a customer ("client) of yours. I didn't solicit your recommendation(s), since some of us can research and learn on our own, nor do we need our hand-held and think you're "amazing" for finding homes on the MLS which anyone could do if they spent the time. What I would recommend is not advertise in a bait & switch-type manner. Your min commission should be foremost in your advertisements, not in fine print.

And because I have written negative reviews, it has no bearing on your review; sounds like deflection, per

This review has been overdue for sometime. We started working with one percent brokers and Lauri early 2014. They were recommended by a friend and to be honest my first attraction was the rebate option that was provided .
By the end it was the people like Lauri that made all the difference in the buying experience

Our first meeting with Lauri was in Burbank for a condo. She was veRy pleasant and patient with us. As first time home buyers we were confused about what we really liked and wanted.

As time went on, Lauri got a great feel of what we liked. The best part of working with Lauri was that

I read all of the positive reviews on Angieslist and on Yelp so decided to give Hugh a call to discuss the possibility of listing our house in Culver City. Hugh connected me with Alan Austin and Alan arranged to meet up with us a few hours later at a local cafe. Alan was really professional and spent a long time explaining the process, helping us weigh the options of selling versus holding onto our house. I usually like to interview a lot of different people / get a lot of bids for jobs but we were so impressed with Alan's professionalism, honesty, and knowledge base that we decided to go
