eal estate professionals Reza and Laura Shirangi of Keller Williams Realty – Luxury Homes in Laguna Niguel have consistently ranked in the top 1 percent of agents locally and nationwide for both listing and selling -- and with good reason. With a passionate commitment to both the industry and to the well-being of their clients, this is no part-time endeavor for the duo. This is life.
architecture and real estate. So with an entrepreneurial spirit and a gift for making people comfortable, he knew that the industry would allow him to earn the rewards of hard work while putting his knowledge to use for others. “There is no other business quite like real estate,” he says. “Helping people find their dream home or make the best investment they can is a very fulfilling career. This is an industry that is constantly evolving – no two transactions are the same and no two clients are the same.” Since obtaining his real estate license more than a decade ago, Reza’s dedication, passion, strong focus and desire to succeed lead him to become one of the top agents in Orange County. He’s also something of a technological guru and works closely with his clients to develop cuttingedge marketing campaigns for each listing. By using the
“I believe that for us, the difference is that we firmly believe that our clients deserve the best we can offer to them,” says Laura. “And that’s what we give them. The client always comes first, whether they’re buying a condo or a luxury property but no one can do that part-time. Our full attention rests with our clients and they know we’re here for them.” Born in Persia and raised in Paris, Reza was drawn to real estate by the opportunity it afforded him to work with clients from around the world and around the corner. Having travelled the globe, he was always fascinated by

A Team Approach Not long after Reza entered real estate, Laura, his wife, decided to join him. A Southern California native, she obtained her undergraduate degree from USC‘s Leventhal School of Accounting and recently obtained her MBA from Chapman University‘s School of Business. Though their backgrounds are different, the two share a philosophy of business and customer service that helps them provide an unparalleled real estate experience for their clients. “Working as a team helps us better provide our clients with service beyond their expectations through
the power of teamwork,” says Laura. “We understand the value of time and the importance of family.” Since joining forces the two have earned nearly every conceivable award for production and service, including: • Top 1 percent of Realtors® nationwide since 2002 • Top Producer award winners 2001 - 2013 • #1 Selling Agents in Laguna Niguel in 2009 - 2013 • Platinum Award Winners 2009 - 2013 • Certified Luxury Homes Specialists

Full-Time Agents Dedicated to Providing the Best Working through many types of markets, there isn’t a situation Reza and Laura haven’t faced. And regardless of market conditions or brokerage affiliation, the two have proven time and time again that consistency, communication and market knowledge are keys to helping their clients achieve their desired results. With his years in the industry, Reza has developed both strong negotiation skills as well as an aptitude for nearly spot-on market pricing. With that winning combination, he’s often able to obtain profits his clients had once thought impossible. One seller, a fellow real estate agent, had listed her home on her own and was shocked at the low offers she received. Knowing that her home was worth more than
the offers coming in, she contacted Reza. “He spent hours addressing all of my concerns even after he had my signature on the listing,” she says. “He was honest … yet he assured me he could sell my home fairly quickly.” Putting her trust in Reza’s abilities, she was surprised when, three weeks later, her home was not only in escrow, but had netted a price high enough to allow her to make another purchase. “I would highly recommend hiring Reza to sell any property,” she says, adding, “I certainly would NOT want to chance having to go against Reza on the other side of the sale!” That proactive approach to real estate has also earned the duo the respect of their brokers.

By working full time all the time, this is a duo that’s destined for continued success.
“Reza and Laura Shirangi have been an asset to our office and company and were chosen to be on the Keller Williams associate leadership council,” says Keller Williams Team Leader Rino Caturano. “Reza not only demonstrates professionalism but he gives back through training other sales associates. At Keller Williams we are proud to be in business with such a talented individual.” A True Mentor The two believe in giving back to their industry in a variety of ways, including mentoring newer agents. “This industry can be challenging and confusing,” says Reza. “By passing on the knowledge I’ve obtained, I’m able to help build good agents into great agents and make a positive impact on our local market and on our industry as a whole.” But they also believe in continuing education for themselves. Having recently earned a designation from the Institute for Luxury Homes and Estate Properties, Reza and Laura are even better equipped to help their buyers and sellers in the luxury home market. “It’s important that our clients have the best representation possible,” says Reza. “Choosing the right agent can make all the difference in the world. We offer our listings the most targeted exposure available and work closely with our buyers and sellers to ensure they get exactly what they ExecutiveAgent Magazine
