What have others said about working with Shawn?
Dear Shawn,
We just needed to thank you for a job well done!
You have shown to us in our past experience and now our present situation you have been so persistent and always willing and open
to any of our suggestions.
At your young age your have an uncanny ability
to market and sell beautiful properties.
I have bought and sold many properties in the past. My experience with Shawn was commendable. He drove all the way out to my house in Burbank to personally explain how he would help me sell my income property on the strand. Within one week he had found a buyer and we were in escrow.

To Shawn Dugan
Shawn I'd like to take this opportunity to extend my heartfelt thanks for the great job you did in renting my oceanfront Manhattan Beach apartment. As you know that these are tough times to have an apartment for rent, and mine had stood vacant for quite a long time. You assured me that listing it with you would expose the property to a much larger audience and that it would be a short time till you found a suitable tenant for me, It was a short time, barely two weeks and it is now rented with a great tenant and a year lease!
Again, thank you

Shawn is just the right guy to put you in your next home or investment property. His expertise, insight, and demeanor make him easy to work with and great at getting the job done. Shawn is my go-to-guy, all the way!

Working with Shawn to find the perfect place to live in the South Bay was a pleasure. He set us up with his own customized notification system to alert us of new listings the moment they came on the market. This was a fantastic free service that enabled us to be one of the first to see a listing and the very first to see the property. It was also empowering because it gave us our own choice as to what properties might be a good fit. If it weren't for Shawn's listing updates we might not have had the chance to live in our new dream home. Shawn was always available and very organized. He stayed on top of all the details from the beginning to end making the process seamless!

We've bought and sold five properties through Shawn (one on The Strand) and made a handsome profit on each. Shawn sold several of our properties above asking price within 7 days of taking the listing. His enthusiasm, integrity and dedication to his trade are second to none. And to top it off he's a really nice guy. Shawn is our #1 recommended Realtor to our close friends and family.
Shawn's value extends beyond just helping people buy and sell homes. His local knowledge has made a big difference for my family. Just when another party had led us to believe it was impossible for us to construct our new home in the Manhattan Beach Tree Section, Shawn's advice opened our eyes to new possibilities. The difference was night and day. Thanks to Shawn, our dream home is now under construction! We highly recommend you talk to Shawn for anything involving real estate.
My partner Chris and I are not particularly fond of real estate agents. But we do like Shawn. He is a creative thinker who finds a way to get the job done.
We initially interviewed several agents to market and sell our home. Looking back, we feel fortunate we chose Shawn. And pleasantly SHOCKED when he found a qualified buyer for our house within 24 hours! (Escrow closed less than a month later.) The transaction with Shawn was like a breath of fresh air-- far exceeding our expecations.
We would recommend Shawn to anyone thinking of selling their South Bay property, especially in today's market.
