"Our family is grateful to Fred and Dawn for all of their help and advice throughout the sale of my home. Their knowledge was welcomed and informative and made this whole process go easy for us. The price they got for my home and how quickly it sold were wonderful and unexpected. They were both so comfortable and easy to be with that to us they were not only our realtors but became special friends. We will gladly be sharing their contact info with our friends. I don't think there are realtors that could equal ours."

"We are entirely satisfied with the service Fred van Allen provided. We initially chose him as our agent because he is more than a realtor who sells homes in our neighborhood: He lives there is active in the community and has a deep familiarity with Craftsman-style historic homes such as our house. At the time we listed our home Fred explained in detail his strategy to bring our unique house to the attention of interested qualified buyers in a time-efficient manner and to highlight its features and amenities. To those efforts, he added a thorough and broad-based market analysis. Fred and his associate Dawn van Allen carried out the plan masterfully helped create outstanding photographic coverage and ran a very productive open house. Together they helped us take the sales process in stride and reach a good outcome."

"Buying and selling a home simultaneously is no easy task, especially having 4 small children. My husband and I knew we needed the right people to help our family. Fred and Dawn van Allen are well-known in the Pomona community and we contacted them to get the process started. From the start, they were both professional and willing to help us promptly. They were thorough in explaining what to expect and how they would work together as a team to ensure things went well. From start to finish we had excellent communication and they continually displayed a strong knowledge base. Truly gifted in what they do. They were there for us every step of the way even when we faced many challenges. So much so that even our kids grew to love them! We couldn't have asked for a better team! We will forever be grateful for all they have done and for helping us get our dream home. Thank you, Fred and Dawn! We highly recommend them!"

"Fred and Dawn and their incredible staff made the sale of the house my brothers sister and I grew up in. A fairly simple process. They kept me on track when I tried to make pricing changes. Their advice and direction when there were issues with the buyer were invaluable. What a team along with selling our family home they even took out the trash and set the cans out for weekly pick! Fred and Dawn kept me up to date and informed me every step of the way. Besides the Whittier area, they are very knowledgeable about the historic districts in Pomona. Not only do they work in the area they are homeowners in the Lincoln Park historic district also. I'd highly recommend FirstTeam Real Estate as # 1 in so cal and Fred and Dawn as Pomona's best realtors."

As the former executive vice president of FirstTeam Real Estate who oversaw all of the offices and management, I have rarely seen a commitment from a real estate agent like I have seen from Fred. Fred always seeks to enhance his knowledge professionalism and negotiation abilities through multiple educational channels. Whenever I arrived at a corporate training event the first person in the room was Fred. The last one to leave was Fred. The one person to take the initiative to implement what was taught was Fred. Fred is not only an amazing person but dedicated to his craft and clients. You will never go wrong hiring Fred to assist you in the purchase and/or sale of your home. Keep up the great work Fred!"
