EXPERIENCE: As a top producing agent of Sotheby's International Realty Los Feliz Brokerage, Rick Yohon is an integral part of one of the highest selling offices in the area. Without a doubt he is known for selling some of the most beautiful, important, and highest priced homes in the area. Please see Rick's 'select solds' to view his sales. With over $491 million in sales, over 440 closings through 2019, and over 20 years of experience, Rick is consistently one of the top producers in the area and has knowledge that only comes from doing the work. Being an effective realtor requires a broad range of knowledge including contract work, negotiations, home improvements, neighborhoods, advertising, and photography. Rick specializes in single-family homes, condominiums, and income properties and believes that the common thread throughout every deal is that every seller and buyer wants to be treated with fairness and respect. HANDS ON WORK. Many of Rick’s competitors are on teams--which means that the person you meet at the listing will not be the same person showing and selling your house. Many busy agents do not even want to take phone calls regarding their own listings! Rick works hands on and most of his business comes from repeat business and referrals from satisfied clients. A full-time realtor who is committed to client service and hands-on work, Rick is accessible by cell phone and believes in empowering clients with knowledge and proof. Possessing an interest and motivation in his job that only comes from a passion for Los Angeles and the unique and beautiful architecture that the city is renowned for, Rick recognizes that each property has something special and believes that it is his job to effectively communicate the positive attributes. He feels lucky to have found an occupation that he truly cherishes and enjoys. In addition, he keeps very close track of the inventory in Los Feliz, Silver Lake, and the Hollywood Hills. Rick believes it is important to not only sell a home, but also sell a location and an area. UNPARALLELED LOCAL MARKET KNOWLEDGE. Realtors who can most effectively represent properties are those with knowledge of comparable homes in the area who work at a local real estate company. For those considering selling a home, Rick can show a tailor-made plan including agent and Sunday open houses and extensive internet advertising and publicity. Rick can also assist and advise on low cost and no cost preparations to ensure that each seller is getting the most they can out of the sale. Rick has extensive knowledge of the local inventory from selling and living in the area. He keeps very close tabs on new listings and has the ability to furnish listings right when they come onto the MLS and sometimes even before they appear on the MLS. Rick has a degree in business administration from the University of Notre Dame and has a previous background in management and film and television production.
