HOW WERE YOUR EXPERIENCES AS A CLIENT WITH SRM REAL ESTATE GROUP AND BOOST MORTGAGE?

When I was an inexperienced first-time buyer working with Scott Morris’ mortgage brokerage, he not only secured a fantastic interest rate for my mortgage, but also patiently answered my million-and-one questions about all aspects of the process of buying a home.

Most recently, Scott worked with me as the real estate agent who listed that same first home for sale. He provided his usual smart and ethically-grounded advice throughout every step of the process—from pricing strategy to staging to marketing to selecting the best buyer in the resulting multiple offer situation. Scott also went above and beyond with almost daily private showings, in addition to the open houses that he personally held. The property sold almost instantly, and escrow proceeded without the slightest hitch.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE OTHERS TO KNOW ABOUT WORKING WITH SRM REAL ESTATE GROUP AND BOOST MORTGAGE?

Quite simply, Scott Morris is the best real estate agent and mortgage broker that anyone could have the privilege to know. During my conversations with Scott, I felt like I was being mentored by a trusted friend, and he was the one person who really shepherded me through the complicated, intimidating and ultimately rewarding process of purchasing a home. And as an added bonus, Scott charges very fair commissions and also donates generously to diabetes research. So in summary, you should work with him, too!

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO DIRECT YOUR SRM DONATION TO BEST FRIENDS ANIMAL SOCIETY?

I choose to give to Best Friends Animal Society because it’s a non-profit animal welfare and rescue organization where a small number of dollars can make a big difference. Best Friends has a clear and attainable goal to “save them all,” helping all U.S. animal shelters become no-kill by 2025. Locally, Best Friends launched a campaign to make Los Angeles the nation’s largest no-kill city through a public-private partnership with a city shelter, high-volume pet adoption events, celebrity-driven marketing campaigns, low-cost spay and neuter services, and other smart strategies. Since launching the No-Kill LA campaign in 2011, the save rate in the city’s shelters has increased from 57.7% to nearly 90%. My two rescue cats are also big fans of Best Friends!
