Get To Know The West Los Angeles Team:

Robert Schmalz 

The Broker and Founder of West Los Angeles Real Estate Group

I am the CEO of West LA Real Estate Group. For many years I was in the garment industry manufacturing and selling to many of the Top Retailers such as Gap, Anne Klein, and Abercrombie to name a few. I built this business from the ground up and grew it to $60 million before the pressures from overseas made manufacturing in the US and Mexico un-profitable.

 

I was involved in many aspects of Real Estate for over 20 years, first working with investments in shopping malls, multi-unit dwellings, and condos. About 12 years ago I moved into Residential properties, decided to get my Brokers license, which I have now for about 10 years and shortly thereafter I started my boutique Realty®, West Los Angeles Real Estate Group

 

I have lived in the Santa Monica and Brentwood areas of Los Angeles for over 25 years, I have three grown children and along with my associates at my firm we handle all aspects of Real Estate throughout greater Los Angeles.

 

My commitment to my clients is only surpassed by my commitment to my family.  I bring top-notch negotiating skills (Trust me you have never negotiated until you negotiate for pennies with the Gap) along with my education as a Broker to my customers.

I hope I have the chance to work with you on reaching your real estate goals.

Testimonials

 

  • Plain and simple, we wouldn't have our home if it weren't for Bob…   He worked with us for over four months, sending us listings every week, going out with us to see several each Saturday or Sunday, always with a smile on his face and the most helpful advice…he protected us from a couple of potentially bad decisions.  He actually steered us away from a couple of places with higher listing prices (and therefore higher commissions) than what we eventually bought, because, in his words, they were "money pits" that would cost us too much in remodeling, etc…. Ira C 

 

  • Robert Schmalz found a great home for my husband and I.  We were first time buyers in 2009, and he was so helpful in helping us find what we were looking for!  He always was there to help us, and what really amazes me is that he is here for us even today.  Christina H

 

  • Bob is a one of the best negotiator you can find. Due to his expertise we were able to sell my place and close escrow in 3 weeks, and received an over the asking price. He guided me through the selling process and worked with escrow, loan officer, title and the buying agent together so that we could close this deal. Bob will always guide you through the process in an ethical and trustworthy manner. Thank you for a fabulous job.  Barbara K 

 

  • I have collaborated with Mr. Schmalz on different concerns for clients; from finding loans to escrow and everything in between.  Bob's center of influence sphere has given me the ability to help many of my clients.  Bob's relentless tenacity to always make the customer happy allowed him to become the number one confidant at our company. Ed 

 

  • Robert Schmalz was highly recommended by a family friend as a great real estate agent. And that is exactly what he is:  he made my dream of being a homeowner come thru. He guided me from the very first meeting in a process of finding a perfect home, until closing. He explained every step in a process, understood perfectly all my worries and fears as the first time buyer, communicated with me constantly and promptly returned all my calls and correspondence.  Robert has a great sense of humor, that I love, which relaxes clients during very tense and nerve-wracking process of buying a home and obtaining a mortgage.  One of the most important calls I ever made was to call Robert to find me a home and to represent me in my real estate transaction.  As a result, I live in a great home! Robert can be trusted completely to represent you (with a smile!) in any real estate deal. Gordanna
