My partner and I were referred to Zak because "he is the best" and she was right! We worked with him to buy a condo in Long Beach. He was extremely responsive and meticulous and found us some great options within our budget. The sale of our house was bumpier than we were expecting but Zak was very patient and kind throughout the whole process. Highly recommend!

Sasha Kuczynki helped me purchase a house recently. Working with Sasha was one of the best decisions I made during my home-buying process. She’s an excellent communicator, incredibly knowledgeable, and gets things done quickly and efficiently. My transaction had some serious complications, including some major issues discovered during the inspection. Sasha handled everything perfectly, negotiating with the seller and finding a solution that worked for everyone. What really stood out about Sasha was her no-nonsense, down-to-earth approach—she wasn’t just trying to make a sale; she was truly invested in helping me achieve my goals. She also is quite knowledgeable about house repairs and was there to provide great insights even before the inspection was done as well as after. Throughout the process, I never felt pressured—she made sure I was comfortable and in control at every step.

Thanks to Sasha, I now own my dream home. I would highly recommend Sasha to anyone looking for an agent who’s direct, efficient, and truly looks out for her clients.

We Highly Recommend Nicki!

As first-time homebuyers, my husband and I were nervous, but working with Nicki made the entire process feel safe and seamless. Her communication was outstanding—she was always available, even drafting offers while we were on vacation! Born and raised in Long Beach, she knew the area inside and out, helping us find the perfect home. Despite multiple offers and negotiations, Nicki guided us with professionalism and dedication. She went above and beyond, connecting us with trusted movers, cleaners, and more. As a gay couple, we never felt judged, only supported. Nicki’s ambition and care made all the difference. We trust her completely and will definitely work with her again when we outgrow our home.

They say teamwork makes the dream work, and my experience with Zack Kuczynski exemplifies this perfectly! When he reached out to help his clients sell their San Diego home, I was ready to dive in. Despite facing a few bumps along the way—like multiple buyers backing out—we maintained our partnership and navigated the challenges together.

I'm thrilled to share that my client has officially closed on the sale of their San Diego home, and Zack's buyers, Sam and Caitlin, are now preparing to move into their dream home in Long Beach! It was a pleasure to play an integral role in this process. Thank you, Zack, for trusting me with your clients’ journey. Here’s to many more successful collaborations in the future!

Nicki did an amazing job calming us as we attempted to purchase this home while selling our first home. Nicki helped us remember what our "must have list" was and not settle despite our long search. We are so thankful for her knowledge and experience as we searched for our dream home with 3 busy kids, while keeping schools, drive, and space in mind. We have been in the home for a few months and still cannot believe it is ours.

As a first time home buyer, I was very nervous yet excited at the same time. I was referred to Zak and he made the experience AWESOME from his friendly demeanor to his professionalism. He answered EVERY one of my many questions and had an impressive knowledge base of not just the market but the entire home buying process. During home visits, Zak was helpful in pointing out the pros and cons of each home and I honestly felt that he truly cared about what his clients were looking for and wanted. He was also very reliable (when he said he was going to be there, he was there) and proved to be a great liaison/ negotiator! He was so reliable and walked me through the whole experience. I highly recommend Zak! You won't be disappointed!

Zak is awesome! He helped my boyfriend and I purchase our first home. He was recommended to us after we had a bad experience with a previous agent and made us feel comfortable right from the start. We had already found a house we liked when we called him and he called the listing agent for us to get more information and then he helped us make an offer and worked with us to make sure it was accepted. Zak was very honest and upfront about everything. He kept us informed every step of the way and was always available and willing to answer all our questions and made sure we understand what was going on. He made our first-time-buyer experience as smooth and stress free as we could have hoped for. We could not thank him enough.

We were first time homebuyers and Zak was great to work with. We purchased a single family home in Lakewood. We appreciated his responsiveness and honesty to our many questions. His past experience as a home inspector was helpful in navigating the many pages of the inspection report and letting us know what fixes were actually necessary. Once we identified our home, Zak made sure the whole process was smooth - from start to finish, it took about a month to find our home and close escrow! We definitely recommend working with Zak!
