We chose the L34 Group to help us purchase our first home mostly based on their IG account, their online reviews and the fact that we're based out of NELA.
Francine from L34 Group was an absolute pleasure to work with! My partner and I were new to the process and weren’t entirely sure what we were doing, but Francine guided us through every step with patience and expertise. She didn’t overwhelm us with too many properties, which we appreciated, as we enjoyed being involved in that part of the search. However, when it came time to make an offer, Francine really stood out! Her knowledge and strategic advice helped us secure a much better deal than the sellers were asking for. Thanks to her guidance, what could have been a stressful experience felt seamless and stress-free. Her network of trustworthy professionals also made everything feel smooth from start to finish!
It certainly takes a village to purchase a home and we're eternally grateful to have had Francine and her network guiding us through it all.

Francine from L34 Group is everything we could have asked for in a realtor. She made the buying process so smooth and was incredibly knowledgeable and informative every step of the way. As first time buyers, we had a lot of questions about the process, and she was there to guide us continuously, so we felt assured that we were making the best decisions. Everything from connecting us with an amazing lender, to explaining contingencies, inspections, appraisals, the escrow process, and more, her sound advice on all matters was impeccable. We’re happy homeowners now and we couldn’t have done it without Francine. She’ll be our realtor for life, and highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home. Thank you Francine for everything!

Truly the best team. We started working with Francine and the L34 team to look for our dream home. Francine was patient, communicative and just all around excellent through the search process and incredibly helpful through the entire offer/closing process as well. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Buying a house is one of the most puzzling, difficult, and nuanced things someone can undergo whilst living in California. Nevertheless, there are some (a rare breed) that make this process friendly, AND fulfilling: they are called the L34 Group. My wife and I are/were first time homebuyers with a few ‘extra’ complications (selling a property, 1031 rollover, New Development purchase etc.). Francine Biton from L34 Group was a Godsend. Francine was infinitely patient with us, walking us through each step, and going well above-and-beyond the call of duty (regularly) to ensure all of the contributing parties were on course at every step of the way. My wife and I cannot recommend her partnership, professionalism, and thoroughness enough. Thank you, Francine, you really made all the difference!

We had a wonderful experience working with Francine from L34 Group. Francine was so knowledgable and so patient with my husband and my 1000 questions! She understood exactly what we were looking for and showed us so many beautiful homes. Never pushy, always kind, great communication - we felt so taken care of by Francine. She came recommended to us by multiple friends, and we are so happy to pass that recommendation on.

We had an exceptional homebuying experience with Francine from the L34 Group. As New York transplants, her dedication was evident as she conducted virtual home tours on our behalf, and provided detailed videos to help us make informed decisions. Throughout the process, Francine's communication was outstanding, and she guided us through the offer, escrow, and closing with ease. Her honesty about the pros and cons of each property was refreshing, and we felt confident in her expertise. Thanks to Francine's personalized and attentive service, we found our dream home and highly recommend her and the L34 Group for anyone in search of a reliable and caring realtor.

Francine from L34 Group has helped us purchase our second home, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her expertise and dedication. Throughout the home-buying experience, she was patient and extremely knowledgeable, guiding us through every step with care and professionalism. We attended an open house the Sunday before our wedding, placed an offer that Wednesday, and by Friday, Francine had strategically helped us win over other bidders and secure the home. She worked to close escrow on an expedited timeline and ensured we got our keys the day before we flew out for our honeymoon. Her attention to detail and commitment made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Francine to anyone looking for a realtor who is dedicated, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in helping you find your dream home.

I had been following Francine from L34 Group for a while, so when it was time to sell our place, I knew her and her team were the ones to call - and it was hands down the best decision we could have made! They are so knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate and with their expertise, our home sold quickly and well above asking price. They led us through decluttering, staging, pre-inspections, and multiple offers and counter offers and helped us weigh all of our options and make the best decisions for our family! If you're in the NELA area and are buying/selling a home, do yourself a favor and reach out to Francine from L34 Group!
