A home is the biggest decision most of us make. We don't rush it.

Fourteen years, 380 closings. From a first home to a commercial investment, in Korean and English, from the first call to the keys.

About Hanna

380 families, many of them first-time buyers new to this country

I came here at twelve and grew up in a one-bedroom apartment in Koreatown. When my parents bought their first house, I was the one reading them every page of the paperwork. That's why I do this.

Since my license in 2012 I've closed 380 transactions across LA and Orange County: first-time buyers, retirees downsizing, investors buying multifamily and commercial. Each needs a different plan.

We're a team of three. Two colleagues work alongside me on lending, escrow and inspections, all in Korean. Questions at any hour go to KakaoTalk.

Questions

How are you paid?
Buyers usually pay nothing. Seller commission is stated clearly at the first meeting. No hidden fees.
How much do I need for a down payment?
Some programs start at 3 percent, and first-time buyer assistance exists. We'll match you to what fits.
Does my visa or residency status matter?
Non-citizens and visa holders can buy. Loan terms differ, so let's talk it through.
Which areas do you cover?
All of LA County and Orange County, most often Koreatown, Glendale, La Crescenta, Torrance, Fullerton and Irvine.
Is the valuation really free?
Yes, with no strings. You don't have to sell.
