Taylor started The Group CRE because he saw a gap in the market—too many sellers weren’t getting the clarity or strategy they needed to make smart decisions. Some were left guessing about their property’s true value, others felt like just another deal on a broker’s list. He built this firm to change that.
Over the years, he’s built more than a brokerage—he’s built a trusted resource for property owners and investors across LA. His podcast, No Vacancy, is where decision-makers turn for real insights on the market. His Instagram and YouTube breakdown everything from rent control shifts to smart investment strategies.
But beyond the content, beyond the numbers, people trust Taylor because he actually knows this market inside and out.
Taylor has closed over $300M in multifamily deals.
He’s been recognized as one of LA’s top real estate professionals.
And when industry insiders want to know where the market is headed, they ask him.
Taylor is also the host of the No Vacancy Podcast, the top podcast for Southern California owners, investors, and industry professionals looking to navigate LA’s multi-family market.

We’re not the biggest brokerage in town, and we like it that way.A smaller, sharper team means more focus on you.
It means we can be strategic instead of transactional.
It means you’re never left wondering what’s happening with your listing because you’ll always have a direct line to the people actually working on it.
We don’t believe in high-pressure sales tactics. We believe in data, relationships, and giving owners real clarity on their options. Because when you have the right information, you make better decisions—and better decisions lead to better deals.
If you just want an agent who will throw your property on the market and hope for the best, we’re probably not the right fit.
But if you want a team that thinks bigger—a team that treats your sale like a business decision, not just another deal—
we should talk.
