Taylor displayed expert-level knowledge of the market in which my property was located. I truly believe he was able to squeeze every penny of value out of the transaction, and for that I am grateful. Would happily recommend him.
Sandy and Ray Homicz, 110 S Swall Seller
Working with Taylor was like having an insider guide to the Los Angeles multifamily market. He identified opportunities others missed and was straightforward about both potential and limitations. The Group CRE delivers results!

If you are looking for a hardworking, professional commercial real estate agent, look no further than Taylor. He guided us through every step of a 1031 exchange and brought us a buyer for our apartment building at top price. We found him to be 100% dedicated to helping his clients achieve their goals. When we decided to sell the income units that our family had owned for decades, it was imperative that the agent know the local market and understand our unique situation. We needed a trusted advisor, not just another agent, and that was where Taylor delivered. In our experience, you cannot go wrong with Taylor and his team. We highly recommend him!

Taylor is a pleasure to work with. Professional,  experienced, cooperative, knowledgeable and most of all caring. I have always relied on Taylor’s expertise as he gives me his honest opinion.  I feel I am in good hands with Taylor Avakian. He has my best interest in mind, unlike other brokers who just push to sell, no matter what
Working with Freddie was a game-changer for us at Caswell&Dainow. He secured our very first land deal, which was such an important milestone in our journey. From the outset, Freddie was proactive, professional, and always went the extra mile to make the process smooth and straightforward. His knowledge of the market and ability to connect the right opportunities made all the difference. We’re hugely grateful for his support and can honestly say that without him, we wouldn’t have gotten off the ground in the way we did.
Adam Dainow, Caswell&Dainow
Working with Taylor has been amazing. He has deep expertise in the Los Angeles multifamily market, combined with a strategic and data-driven approach. Taylor exemplifies professionalism, deep market expertise, and effort and honesty. I couldn't recommend Taylor enough.

Taylor is one of the most honest and hard-working brokers I have worked with. I would highly recommend working with him if given the opportunity!
Mark Colman,
Real Estate Investor, MCP
We worked with Freddie across 4 transactions between 2023-2025, both on the buy and sell side. As our retained agent he worked really hard on our behalf on both transactions, really understanding our objectives and price aspirations. He ensured we achieved our targets. Often agents just want to negotiate a deal to get their fee, but Freddie is different, and we felt like he was absolutely part of our team

Taylor is one of the top multifamily brokers in LA for a reason. He’s incredibly focused on his market, asks the right questions, and—most importantly—listens intently to his clients. His deep market knowledge and thoughtful approach consistently lead to great outcomes. On top of that, his podcast showcases his role as a real thought leader in the space. Highly recommend working with him.

Taylor is an excellent broker. He has creative ideas about properties that meet my needs that I might never have thought of and he is so charming he gets both parties to want to make the deal. He keeps in touch and he gets the paperwork done quickly.

If you asked me who has a finger on the pulse of LA’s real estate market, I’d say look no further than Taylor Avakian. He has excellent and up-to-date market insights. He is in constant contact with a large field of both buyers and sellers. He operates with the highest ethics and integrity. You would be hard-pressed to find someone who works harder and smarter than Taylor.
June Kim
We first met Freddie when he introduced us to our very first development project, which was a turning point for our company. From that moment on, he was involved in several of our key deals and always played an important role in our growth. What stood out most about working with Freddie was his deep market knowledge, his professionalism, and the way he made every step of the process straightforward and enjoyable. He wasn’t just an agent to us — he became a trusted partner and a pleasure to work with. We’ve truly missed working with him since his move to LA, but we’re excited to see him thriving there.
Dogan Karalar, Kreado
