Ben did a great job for me on a very short timeline and took care of a lot of additional things that came up even after the close. A very good guy to boot.

Ben is the absolute best. He has helped my husband and I find multiple properties and made the process from start to finish not only feel effortless, but also enjoyable. He always makes time for us and has spent countless hours with us and he does it with a big smile on his face. He’s professional and knowledgeable and shares all his real estate wisdom with us so we can make informed decisions on properties. He listens to what we’re looking for and our list of preferences and helps us find properties that check all the boxes for us. He never rushes us to get a property just to make a sale, he takes his time so it’s right and we’re happy with it. He’s smart, detail-oriented, kind and patient. We always prefer working with Ben because we know we’re truly in good hands.

I can not speak highly enough of Ben and the team at Hilton & Hyland. His professionalism, experience, and knowledge guided me through the successful sale of my Beverly Hills home this past year. I followed his guidance and was thrilled with the results - multiple offers above asking price. Highly recommend! Could not ask for more !! Thank you.

I have worked with Ben on three occasions, one commercial lease, and two residential deals. Two instances had hiccups arise that would jeopardize most deals. However, Ben's ability to adapt, communicate quickly, and overcome obstacles saved the day. I often tell people neither deal would have closed without the work of my agent. I can't recommend Ben highly enough. He is extremely professional and most importantly, honest. Buying and selling real estate can be very stressful and it seems everyone has a "friend" or an "agent" they can recommend, however, experience, honesty, and integrity matter, and I received all three with Ben!

Do you have off-market or pocket listings?

Ben Kruger - Luxury Real Estate Agent in Beverly Hills, CA | Dec 29, 2021

Yes – Hilton and Hyland has an incredible intra-office network of off-market listings allowing for many of our top deals to be handled in house. About a staggering 27% of our $3.5 Billion in sales volume in 2020 was conducted in house. This is higher than any other Beverly Hills real estate company. Give me a call to discuss your search or off-market real estate needs.

The entire LA region has a lot to offer to singles, families, retirees, and everyone in between. Malibu, Malibu Beach, Pacific Palisades, Marina del Rey, and Venice are iconic LA neighborhoods with amazing beach fronts and proximity to other areas of the city like Beverly Hills and Downtown LA. They’re also among the most expensive neighborhoods in Los Angeles. To find a property within your desired price range, browse the neighborhood map on my site or use the property search feature.

Who pays for closing costs in California?

Ben Kruger - Luxury Real Estate Agent in Beverly Hills, CA | Dec 29, 2021
Ben Kruger - Luxury Real Estate Agent in Beverly Hills, CA | Dec 29, 2021

Closing costs in California are typically split between the buyer and the seller. As the buyer, you can expect to pay financing fees associated with your loan, the settlement fee, home inspection fees, insurance fees, and more. The seller’s closing costs typically include broker’s fees, which are split between the buying and selling agents. In most closings, the buyer and seller divvy up escrow fees. It all depends on what you agree with in the negotiation stage. Check out the blog posts on my site or give me a call to learn more.

The best places to buy a house in Los Angeles depend on your real estate goals and budget. If you’re looking to invest in luxury real estate, consider Trousdale Estates in Beverly Hills, or other communities like Bel Air and Holmby Hills. There are view properties in the Hollywood Hills, and ocean view and beachfront homes in Malibu and Pacific Palisades. Get in touch with me so we can discuss which area may be the best fit. Alternatively, head to my website which has a Property Search feature by community.

What is a gated community and is Beverly Hills or Calabasas a gated community?

Ben Kruger - Luxury Real Estate Agent in Beverly Hills, CA | Dec 29, 2021
Ben Kruger - Luxury Real Estate Agent in Beverly Hills, CA | Dec 29, 2021

A gated community is an enclosed neighborhood, typically with 24-hour security. Visitors cannot enter the gated community without permission. For its size, Los Angeles has relatively few gated communities. However, Beverly Hills has some upscale ones, such as Beverly Park, Hidden Valley Estates, and Mulholland Estates. Brentwood also has a handful including Brentwood Country Estates and Brentwood Circle. Farther north, The Oaks in Calabasas and Hidden Hills are two other gated communities. See my website to learn about these neighborhoods.

Ask questions to ensure you understand the process of buying a home in LA. You might start with market trends and recommended neighborhoods. Other questions to ask include agent’s experience, including areas and property types of focus, the scope of their services, and their fees. Call me to learn about the home buying services I offer.

Can you clarify the difference between Beverly Hills and Beverly Hills Post Office neighborhoods?

Ben Kruger - Luxury Real Estate Agent in Beverly Hills, CA | Dec 29, 2021
Ben Kruger - Luxury Real Estate Agent in Beverly Hills, CA | Dec 29, 2021

Beverly Hills Post Office or BHPO falls outside of the city limits. This section of LA shares the 90210 zip code and post office with the City of Beverly Hills. Property addresses in BHPO may be written as Beverly Hills, CA 90210. These neighborhood distinctions can play a large factor in a property value, so it’s important to work with a local Beverly Hills Realtor during your purchase or sale.
