Allison and Heather’s guidance led to getting our full asking price and a 21 day escrow!

Todd was very responsive. He almost always personally answered our phone calls. We were able to close escrow for our new home on schedule. When it comes to Costa Mesa, Todd really knows and understands the market. Thanks Todd!

Allison Panetta and Heather Proud did a fantastic job selling our Newport Beach home. They were easy to work with, attentive to all our needs and work tirelessly to find a buyer and close the deal. We would highly recommend Panetta and Proud.

Todd was the best agent. He saw our vision, knew exactly what we wanted and helped us to attain it. He was patient when we were being picky and helped us do everything it took to the secure the house of our dreams when we found it. I would recommend Todd to anyone looking for a new home! Very patient and knowledgeable. Took the time to explain the fundamentals which ultimately lead my wife and I to make the perfect decision.

Todd knows his stuff. He helped us buy a house through a small home builder. The price was set so we did not get to see his negotiation skills, but everything we did see was great. And he patiently worked with our lender, and was able to convince the builder to move up our closing date so that we would not have to pay to extend our interest rate lock. Saved us serious money. Many thanks to Todd and my wife and I highly recommend him. Thanks Todd!

Todd was fantastic in helping us to buy our house. He is very knowledgeable about the area and really puts forth an extra effort for his clients. He not only was willing to show us many houses, but he smoothly negotiated our transaction and then went above and beyond his responsibilities even after we were in escrow, providing information on everything from a landscaper to where to buy furniture. We highly recommend him. Thanks for everything Todd.

Heather and Allison handled the sale of my investment property from beginning to end, including improvement recommendations, obtaining bids for work, hiring the contractors, overseeing the work, and more. They kept me informed and ensured the scheduled deadlines were met. They understand the market and priced the home appropriately. As a result, it sold within 2 days for significantly more than it would have prior to the improvements, I couldn’t be more please.

After Allison and Heather helped us purchase a home, we were so pleased with their professionalism, expertise, and tireless efforts on our behalf that we used their services again, three times. They served as our real estate agents in the purchase of two houses, the sale of a house, and the lease of another. Through it all, they were knowledgeable and thorough. They took the time to understand our needs and earned our trust. Their guidance and advice were invaluable. The fact that they are caring and fun to be around is a bonus. We wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again.

Todd Bousman, President of bouHAUS was our Broker for our Midtown (www.midtown10.com) project of 10 new homes located in Westside Costa Mesa. Todd possesses an assorted wealth of both professional experience and personal passion for Real Estate. His love for marketing, architecture and helping clients has attributed not only to his success as a real estate professional, but also as a trusted adviser. We sold out at Midtown 10 in seven and half weeks. This was due to Todd’s amazing attributes in real estate. We thank Todd with all our hearts for making Midtown a successful new home community.

Todd came through for us and we are now in our dream home. We couldn’t be happier with the end result. He thought outside of the box and was able to negotiate a very unique contract with the listing agent. We got a great deal on the house as well. Todd stuck with us through months of searching and never finding exactly what we wanted. Once we found the house we loved, he pulled out all the stops in order to make it a reality for us. He is excellent at what he does and although the area that we were searching in, wasn’t his expertise, he dug around and found all the info he could on the area and made it happen! Thanks for everything Todd!

I’ve known Todd for many years and know him to be a great guy and a determined, passionate broker. He is a savvy marketer which recently helped net us a great result on the sale of a investment property. On the buy side, Todd also represented us on a challenging hunt for a replacement property which ended with him negotiating a great deal for us. Additionally, Todd’s design aesthetic has been really valuable in assisting us in the upgrades that we plan to do to maximize our new investment. With Todd you get an experienced broker with years of background in Orange County markets, great marketing expertise, design vision, and tenacious representation....

We are truly blessed to find Todd as our real estate agent in helping us purchase our new home. He was patient, good humored,responsive, professional, and accommodating to our schedule, needs and interests. We simply loved his “no pressure” approach and deep knowledge of this complex market and local neighborhood. He made the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable. Todd helped drive our wants and needs into surface and took care of things we didn’t consider. That’s what you want in a realtor. Thanks to Todd, we now own the house of our dreams down the street from our grandkids and we all couldn’t be happier! We would use Todd again in a heart be...

Todd was a true professional to work with. My wife and I sold our home as a pocket listing, and to our surprise, it sold quickly. This meant that the two of us, along with our one year old daughter, had to act fast. Todd helped us narrow down our search parameters for a new home to move into, as well as prioritize our needs since we had to move quickly. Not only was he attentive to our timeline, but he paid close attention to detail, and because of this, was able to keep us focused on what we truly wanted in a home. He also had a pulse on the local market trends and price fluctuations, which played a major role in us navigating a multi-offer scenari...

Margaret and I are so impressed with the experience we had selling our home. Allison gave us professional representation like we never imagined possible! Your marketing of every sort was unparalleled in our opinion, week after week after week in the best publications, with great photography and copy. That, coupled with incredible contacts (basically knowing everyone in, on, near or even familiar with Big Canyon and the Club) made the eventual sale a certainty and made getting us close to our asking price a reality. With our hectic travel schedules it was wonderful to know we never had to worry about the house, the grounds or the showings, and we tha...

We are extremely fortunate to have recently worked with Todd Bousman on not only selling a home in 2009, but also in purchasing a home in 2010. Todd and the entire Tim Carr Group treated us with the upmost respect and care. We credit Todd with finding a home that wasn’t even on the market, through his many connections within the industry. Todd guided us through the entire process, from loan prequalification to searching for houses to making the offer and closing the deal. He also assisted in recommendations and problem solving for the work that had to be done after the close of escrow to make the house our home. Todd is savvy, personable and knows t...

Todd was a part of my first purchase experience which started back in Feb. of this year. The Condo complex was a new construction and it was the builders first project. Todd was very professional and quick to respond to our every need. Being that my wife and I were first time homebuyers we had many needs that most real estate agents would of ignored. Todd would answer my calls late at night and meet me at the Condo so I could take all kinds of measurements. Todd even guided my wife and I to places that would have the type of furniture that would blend with the design of Condo. Todd sold 10 Condos in a matter of 6 or so weeks and I can tell you that ...

The usual descriptives do not adequately address the outstanding service Heather Proud provided. She immersed herself in the all aspects of our home sale process. From preparation of the home, to securing contractors, to marketing, to the close of escrow, Heather made the process seamless and stress free. She was available when needed, worked collaboratively with everyone and researched unfamiliar aspects of the home and neighborhood diligently. Heather sold our Eichler home to buyers with a genuine interest in this unique mid-century modern home. Not only did Heather negotiate an excellent price, she found buyers that would care for and enjoy our f...

I’ve known Todd and we have been great friends for many years. We also worked together in the real estate industry several years back. Todd was the obvious choice to represent us to sell our income property in Newport Beach. Even though I have my own real estate license and I could have tried to sell the duplex myself, I knew that I would not put in the time or effort, nor would I have the same level of local marketing expertise that Todd brought to the equation. Along with local market knowledge, Todd used his quality resources to help make the property show well and he understood the financial nuances of selling income property. Even though I was ...

I want to share my distinctively unique experience with Todd Bousman as a realtor, and a professional. I have known Todd since he was a young boy, and he was just as delightful then as he is now. Many years went by without seeing him, but I knew of his outstanding reputation. I recently relocated and was living in the Huntington Beach area. I needed to lease out my home for a few years, in order to be able to spend some much needed time with my elderly Mother. Having lived most his life in Coastal Orange County, I knew Todd could provide potential clients with his invaluable knowledge relating to all of the wonderful amenities in the local beach com...

My husband and I recently decided to buy our first home together in the rapidly escalating, highly competitive Eastside Costa Mesa real estate market. With a budget well below a million dollars, finding an affordable home that fit our size, condition and location criteria sometimes seemed like it would be impossible. After five months of intensive searching with Todd, we finally found “the” home. Unfortunately, a lot of other people had found it, too. We had limited financial ability to engage in a bidding war, and we were competing with eight other offers. Ugh! With an agent any less skilled than Todd, I feel we wouldn’t have secured the home. Howe...
