Lorin Ruttenberg and Monica Garcia-Grilli, The Savvy Duo, created a powerful, successful real estate partnership in 1999. Monica, a native of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Lorin, originally from the East Coast, both made Los Angeles their home in 1988.
Having lived and worked throughout most different areas of the city, The Savvy Duo has an extensive knowledge of Los Angeles and all of the neighborhoods. As mothers, Monica & Lorin are also extremely well-informed about the school systems throughout the city.
As a team, The Savvy Duo provides their clientele with the highest level of customer service, from two synergistic perspectives. Additionally, they negotiate with the strength and insight of two unique perspectives. Monica & Lorin intuitively strategize and brainstorm about how to best position their clients, both buyers and sellers, so that they may acquire the best deal possible.
“We sell it like it is” is The Savvy Duo’s approach to business. Because Lorin & Monica believe that it’s all about the customer and what’s best for them, they always stay true to the facts. To The Savvy Duo, success means being able to help a client define their goals and attain their dreams.
A sample of the letters received by The Savvy Duo….
Mr. Nourmand,
I would like to pass on to you my appreciation for the service and commitment that two of your agents, the “Savvy Duo” provided during the sale of my home. Both Lorin and Monica are sensitive caring professionals that handled every detail of the sale. I was extremely attached to my home due to several life events and its was time to move on. The Savvy Duo were aware and sensitive to my situation and handled me with a sophisticated combination of compassion and realism. I found their people oriented approach to be exactly what I needed to guide me thought the selling process. Lorin and Monica also eased the burden of sale by handling every minor detail associated with inspections, repairs, etc. This level of detail oversight was invaluable to me since I currently reside in Germany and have a extensive travel schedule. Lorin and Monica kept me well informed and as this sale was coordinated over several States and Countries. Their meticulous management of every detail permitted me to relax and focus on my job as a Department of Army civilian coordinating military equipment/weapons for the Army in support of Military Operations in Iraqi and Afghanistan.
They made it all so easy for me and I’m sure they provided as much for the buyers. They are Wonderful!
I’ll be returning to the greater Los Angeles area in the next year or so and my first stop will be with Nourmand Associates.
Please pass my gratitude on to them.
Meg Ardner
