Since launching his real estate journey in 1979 in the heart of Burbank, California, Brad has consistently elevated himself as a distinguished and deeply trusted figure in the greater Los Angeles real estate landscape. His name echoes through many communities, synonymous with excellence, thanks to an unwavering stream of enthusiastic referrals, brilliant ad campaigns, and a celebrated track record of selling homes faster—and for more money—than clients dared to imagine. Brad's success in one of America's most competitive markets stems from his commitment to a perpetual learning curve. Guided by the mantra "focused on what matters to you," he has achieved remarkable milestones. From helping clients build robust retirement incomes through income and investment properties to facilitating 1031 trade-ups and navigating the sale and purchase of residential properties spanning from family homes to luxury estates, equestrian properties, and other unique offerings. Recent accolades from the Wall Street Journal and Real Trends further solidify Brad Korb Real Estate Group's position among the top 1,000 real estate teams in the U.S. This achievement is a testament to Brad's leadership, supported by a handpicked team comprising 2 listing specialists, 8 buyer specialists, and 5 administration experts. Notably, his team includes his wife of 32 years, Nancy; their daughter, Courtney; and their son, Tyler. Beyond the transactional success of helping over 1,500 families with their real estate needs, Brad is a cherished member of his community. His generosity extends to vital causes, including the YMCA and numerous school, music, art, and sports programs. For an insider's look into Brad's real estate insights and endeavors, explore his social media presence on YouTube: Brad Korb Real Estate Channel. Discover a legacy built on trust, expertise, and a genuine commitment to what matters most. ??

"Brad and his team are amazing! As a first time homebuyer, I had lots of questions, and they were always just a phone call (or text) away. They made the process accessible, easy to navigate and helped us find our forever home! Heather is a star, and Brad made sure we felt supported throughout the entire purchase process. Generous with their many resources, they made our home buying process as painless as possible. I highly recommend Brad Korb and team!"

"I found Wayne on here a couple days ago & when I contacted him, he responded very quickly! I sent him pictures of what we needed removed & gave me a couple price quotes on what I was looking at price wise. We agreed on for Friday, 3 days after I first reached out to him. Wayne & his guys were great! He told me he would arrive between 1:45 & 2:00PM on 8/24 & arrived at 2:20 with communication letting me know he would arrive late due to traffic. No problem! They showed up, got straight to work & hauled heavy, dirty, rusted old junk into a huge moving van. Wayne was very very nice & his guys worked hard in the hot sun! They were in & out in about an hour & a half having filled up a 20-foot truck filled with junk! Very patient & accommodating. We will be contacting Wayne & his guys in the future for our next cleaning phase. Thanks Wayne!"

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Stylish drop tiles, such as wood or metal, could add value to your home if the drop ceiling hides imperfections on an old surface. However, traditional fiberboard and plastic drop ceilings can have the opposite effect, especially if new prospective buyers do not like that aesthetic. Savvy buyers may also know that drop ceilings are a go-to ceiling option in areas where leaks are an issue, given the easy access to the area above the ceiling and the ease of replacing a single tile. This could dissuade a buyer from purchasing your home.

Yes, adding central air can increase your home value by as much as 10%. Generally speaking, prospective buyers prefer a central AC system over a ductless system or room-by-room AC units. That’s because central air conditioning blends into the home easier than individual room air conditioners and typically has less equipment to maintain.

Whether or not new windows increase property taxes depends on where you live and by how much your upgrade increases your home’s value. Smaller projects likely won’t result in increased property taxes, but it’s always a good idea to err on the side of caution and check. Contact your local county appraisal department for the most accurate information about property taxes in your area. 

While installing a carport will have only a slight, if any, bearing on increasing the selling price of your home, simply having a high-quality and well-maintained carport can improve the selling appeal to would-be house buyers. However, a poorly-maintained carport in disrepair can have the opposite effect and hurt the home's sales appeal.

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.
