WithMartin Real Estate

WithMartin Real Estate Welcome to the WithMartin Real Estate Page! My name is James Martin and I’ve been helping people buy and sell their homes for nearly a decade now.

I started in Coldwell Banker in 2005, right before the start of the collapse of the market, and while other agents were busy getting out of the industry, I dug in my heels and worked my way through it. And I’m glad I did. Making my way through an economic downturn blessed me with a wealth of knowledge on all the various real estate transaction types. Aside from the standard Residential purchase, I

also became an expert on Short Sales, REO’s, Probate & Trust Sales, and Real Estate Investment Analysis. I pride myself in the integrity I bring to my industry. I never strong-arm my clients into making rushed decisions. My number one priority is to make sure that my clients are empowered with all the information they need to make the decisions that feel right to them. Setting up the right environment for the Real Estate transaction process is another facet of my practice. Thoroughly explaining the sale process and indicating vulnerabilities in the contract that my clients may be exposed to throughout the sale helps me protect their bottom line and limit their liabilities.

Los Angeles has always had a complicated relationship with its past—but are we starting to appreciate it more?

In my latest post, I explore the rising interest in historic homes across LA: why it's happening, what it means for neighborhoods, and where this newfound affection might lead.

🏛️ From Spanish Revivals to Deco courtyards, there's more at stake than nostalgia.

It's here! My new Substack newsletter, "Beyond The Listing," has officially launched, and the first post is up! 🚀

"Beyond The Listing" is where I'll be sharing deeper insights into the world of Los Angeles real estate, with a special focus on:
* Architectural gems & historic homes
* Neighborhood stories & LA history
* Market trends for unique properties
* And the broader culture of SoCal living.

Why did I start it? Because there's so much more to discuss than what fits in a typical post! I'm excited to share more in-depth perspectives and connect with fellow enthusiasts of LA's character-rich homes.

I know many people who have lost their homes in the Eaton Canyon and Palisades fire - both clients, associates, and friends. I sold Ed and Angela their home right before Christmas in 2008. They started off as clients, and ended up becoming dear friends of mine. It was heartbreaking to hear that their insurance had been cancelled. They left the house without even a pair of extra socks when the embers came raining down on them. They lost everything. I'd like to help them reach their goal of $35k. Please share this if you can.

My name is Olga and I'm helping raise money for Ed, his wife and young… Olga L needs your support for Ed and his family have nothing left after the Eaton Fire
