Cindy's professionalism and vast knowledge of the real estate market were immediately apparent, and we quickly developed a strong connection with her. Throughout the entire process of purchasing a house, Cindy made us feel super comfortable and safe. Even though it was our first time buying a house in the US, she guided us with expertise and confidence. Her reassuring demeanor and attention to detail put us at ease, knowing that she had our best interests at heart. Cindy's kindness and patience were truly remarkable. She took the time to understand our unique needs and requirements, listening attentively to our concerns and preferences.

Read More...Cindy Ambuehl is a real estate agent expert and market analyst that I have known on a business and friendship basis for the past seven years. Our business and friendship relationship grew over the years as I was always impressed by her knowledge of current market events in my neighborhood and what was going on with current events in the world. Her tenacity, drive and energy was contagious. Everyone around her got caught up in the flow of energy and making things happen. My house was not on the market and Cindy came to me with a prospective buyer that was looking and wanted to see my home. Cindy showed the property like no one else could have done, pointing out all the points that made my house a home. She was an expert. Cindy's personal interest, her enthusiasm and knowledge of the market all became factors that assisted in closing escrow on my home. This was no ordinary decision for me as I lived in my home 57 years. I had talked about selling my home, but could not make the decision. If it weren't for Cindy, I would not have been able to sell the property. With Cindy, I was able to see the big picture. Without her expertise, this sale would have never happened and I am forever indebted to her tenacity, knowledge and expertise in every step toward the completion of the sale. There isn’t anyone that could have better represented the property. Cindy knew everything, including the prospective possibilities for the property with improving and building. She had experts at her fingertips that could verify, or help with consideration of alternatives for the property. Cindy is a professional. If you want the best representation, honesty, and the best outcome possible, it’s Cindy. There are no words to describe my experience of a life time after 57 years. I made the right choice, I chose Cindy. She is my real estate agent, my confidant, my lifetime friend. It doesn’t get any better than her. Cindy is the best.
Read More...I have had the pleasure of working with Cindy and her team over the past several years, and most recently through the sale of our family home. Cindy's in-depth knowledge and commitment to the LA real estate market is inspiring and is clearly reflected in her success. I would recommend anyone to Cindy and her team and thank them for the wonderful job they did in helping with my families most recent transaction.
Read More...Cindy and her team have purchased and sold several homes for me since 2010. I have always been impressed with her attention to detail, her ability to negotiate with finesse, and her resources to refresh a property or handle any permit/inspection issues. I wouldn’t want anyone else by my side throughout the overwhelming process of changing homes.
Read More...I have worked with Cindy for over 10 years. She has helped me buy and sell around six homes. I cannot say enough good things about her. Cindy makes every single client feel special. She takes the time to get to know YOU and then works tirelessly to find the perfect home. Cindy has an amazing team that is on top of everything; I always feel like I'm their only client. That's how personalized the experience is. In a city like Los Angeles where there are real estate agents at every corner, Cindy is a breathe of fresh air. Her heart and passion always shine through.
Read More...As a real estate developer and investor over the past 10 years, I’ve purchased, built, or sold dozens of residential and commercial properties throughout the United States. I’m proud to say that after meeting Cindy Ambuehl four years ago, and watching her navigate the successful sale of one of my complex investment properties in Pacific Palisades, she earned my trust and respect and has become the exclusive real estate professional I turn to for all of my Southern California projects. Whether I’m buying or selling, Cindy is my first call. More importantly, Cindy is also my go-to real estate advisor when we’re designing a new home and want to know exactly what today’s top tier buyers are looking for. Her clientele have excellent taste and exacting standards. We want to deliver an exquisite home that will live up to their expectations. Cindy’s early involvement ensures we bring the perfect product to the market and no critical details are overlooked. There’s no doubt, Cindy knows real estate. She also knows people. She has a unique gift of quickly connecting with them and understanding their needs and desires, as well as their worries and fears. She can empathize with buyers and sellers and always finds a way to ensure both parties feel listened to, understood, and valued. From that perspective, she’s able to bring both parties together for win-win real estate transactions, and in some cases, long lasting friendships. I hold Cindy in the highest regard and wholeheartedly endorse her as a trustworthy, high energy, hard working, and highly effective real estate professional. Do yourself a favor, give her a call.
Read More...I have had the great pleasure of working with Cindy Ambuehl exclusively on the West Side of Los Angeles for more than 15 years. Cindy engineered our family’s move from Venice to a home that was not for sale in the Palisades that I had texted her a photograph of - for more than a decade it was my favorite house in Los Angeles, and now it is my home. Cindy understands that real estate is personal and that a client/agent relationship is sacred. When both client and agent do all they can to support each other’s success, the results can be special. Cindy is a genius at tuning out the inevitable static that enshrouds the always dynamic Los Angeles market - noise from agents, lenders, insurers, appraisers, title companies, buyers, sellers, and, yes, even us, her clients - and both rooting out and devoting herself to the market fundamentals relevant to a particular transaction. As she eschews hype and both unfounded optimism and pessimism, she burnishes her reputation for being right. Armed with my relationship with Cindy Ambuehl and her sober assessment of contemporaneous entrance and exit numbers, Aeries Development is able to confidently take on projects that make sense in any kind of market. But what is as important to me, and in my company’s mission statement, is that I truly enjoy my day-to-day experience doing this hard work of development. I insist on being surrounded by positive energy and good humor and I want to feel the presence and support of my business relationships ongoing, whether there’s a deal at hand or not - and so always feel ready for what’s next. Cindy always provides this experience in spades. I couldn’t recommend Cindy Ambuehl more highly.
Read More...Cindy is a fantastic agent. She is knowledgeable, attentive, goes to bat for you and is just so much fun! We had the pleasure of not only selling our house for top dollar with her; but also getting an amazing off market property with her. She is constantly “in the know” about upcoming listings and her expertise and guidance throughout the entire process is second to none. We highly recommend working with Cindy and her lovely team.
Read More...Working with Cindy Ambuehl was joyful, efficient, and produced results! From the moment we met, Cindy truly “saw” our needs and desires, and within days she gave us data on pricing for our property, showed us our dream home, and supported us to make an informed decision on next steps. Her team was impeccable, helping us prepare everything from staging our home to financing options to buying and selling in the most efficient time frame. Cindy helped us reimagine our entire life plan - and we have a new home for our family and friends for years to come. We could not be more grateful.
Read More...Cindy Ambuehl is a force of nature! We had worked with a few brokers before we met her, but no one comes close to her work ethic, expertise, knowledge and accessibility. More important than all of that though is that she is honest, straight forward, and has a high moral standard. That is the reason we have used her and her amazing team for many transactions, both buying and selling high end properties. They have great marketing, and esthetic sense. She is also a joy to be around, has a great sense of humor and happy to call her a friend. Highly recommended in every way.
Read More...The best in the business. Cindy sold our last house when we moved into a rental (to get a big yard, our old house lacked any yard) and was extremely hands-on with every detail including marketing, staging, escrow, and closing. We were in contract immediately for a lot over asking and the process was seamless. 10/10 on selling. When we looked to leave the rental Cindy searched everywhere. She was knocking on doors of strangers for us and riding the waves of offers, counters, lost chances, accepted offers, inspections, etc. We were in escrow multiple times but discovered everything from an undisclosed 50 year flood plane to past lawsuits with neighbors and Cindy was there connecting us with surveyors or lawyers, each time even if it "probably will be fine" advising us to exit escrow even though she could have gotten her commission and moved on. The house we bought she originally showed us as a pocket listing but the price was too high. After listing then multiple price reductions we made our offer but so did others. However the relationship Cindy and we had built with the owners helped get us the house. She pushed the inspectors hard to get us credits then without being asked negotiated down the price of final repairs (chimneys, etc) with different trades before we closed. Start to finish our house search took almost 8 months with multiple times out of escrow. Cindy was available, patient, honest, responsive and professional the whole time. 12/10 on buying. Cindy is incredibly well-connected across LA builders, realtors, landscapers, developers, etc. She knows who cuts corners and who does great work, she will not just help you find the home but make sure you are ready to take it over and make it right. She is also a wonderful person, and really a pleasure to work with.
Read More...I have never worked with an agent who was more thoughtful and concerned with my interests above all else. She was incredibly patient as I looked at home after home, for almost a year, waiting on the perfect property. When we finally found my dream property her tenacity and professionalism combined to get me a deal I never thought possible. Cindy is truly first class.
Read More...We could not be happier with Cindy. Her knowledge and expertise are truly unique, combined with great people skills. She answer your call at any time or place, or will get back to you the second she has an opening. That is something we really value in a real estate professional, where so much is about timing and responsiveness. Cindy is as good as it gets.
Read More...This was a challenging sale, and Cindy and her team did an outstanding job closing the deal. I see Cindy’s sign on property all over town, and now I know why. She facilitated the sale very professionally, making it extremely easy during the “signing” process. I would recommend them highly for any buyer or seller.
Read More...Cindy is an amazing realtor. We have been with her through both buying and selling homes. She has very detailed knowledge of the local market, has excellent contacts, will help you prepare your home for sale, can give you great advice on where and what to buy, and above all has a wonderful personality and is great to work with!
Read More...Cindy Ambuehl and her team we instrumental in getting our new home. Not only does she have unparalleled knowledge on real estate and years of experience,she is such a pleasure to work with and is so liked and respected by other agents. I honestly believe if it were not for Cindy we wouldn’t be living in our dream home. Thank you!
Read More...My husband and I worked with Cindy while relocating from Colorado. She was very knowledgeable about all the different neighborhoods and schools and was able to help us find the perfect location for our family. It was great to have someone we trusted overseeing the process since we were not able to be here in California the whole time. We would definitely recommend Cindy to friends and family!
Read More...As one of the largest residential developers in Los Angeles, Huntington Estate Homes, it is mandatory that we work with only the most knowledgeable and professional real estate agents in the business. Cindy Ambuehl and her team pay attention to all the details, making the process effortless for the buyer and the seller. She is beyond amazing and I look forward to working with her again and again.
Read More...Cindy Ambuehl is the only realtor I would have working for me in the luxury real estate market. I have done 4 separate transactions with Cindy representing my family in the past 7 years. Her knowledge of the market is unparalleled, She knows every desirable corner of 310. I’m in awe of her organization and attention to detail. When it’s time for negotiation her breadth of knowledge shines as she draws on decades of experience. The team surrounding her is world class and benefits from her very high standards in every part of the process. I doubt it’s possible to find a more professional and authentic person to understand your needs and represent your unique priorities and interests in this market.
Read More...I’ve had the great pleasure of working with Cindy as both a buyer and seller. First of all, I have never met anyone more passionate and dedicated to doing a fantastic, thorough, professional job, all while keeping a great sense of humor and staying perfectly lovely and graceful under fire. She is always going the extra mile- I honestly don’t know if she sleeps. But enough of the gushing, the bottom line is that Cindy pulled off what I consider my own little miracle. I was caught in a bidding war with 3 other offers, 2 of them cash (neither of them mine!). I couldn’t go higher and was tapping out when Cindy pulled out her secret weapon. Something she uses as a genius negotiation in just such cases. I would tell you what it is, but then she’d have to kill me. Suffice it to say, I am happily living in my dream house after Cindy’s bargaining prowess won the day and the bidding war! She was equally fantastic representing me as a seller. I feel so thankful to have had her at the helm, and I think this is where her years of expertise really pay off, because she is able to take what could be a very stressful time, and make the millions of little things that can go wrong, go right and all without batting an eyelash. She is worth her weight in gold as a professional and a friend.
Read More...There are real estate "agents" and then there is Cindy Ambuehl. I have a data point of only one but what a data point it was. Cindy worked with us for 3 years, very patiently. If the home was not in our ideal location by one block, no problem. If the home was perfect in every way but, for some unexplainable reason didn't feel right, no problem. She never rushed us. After showing us only a small number of homes, she "got us" and fine tuned the process to make sure that we didn't waste our time. Literally every house she showed us was a credible potential home for us based upon our very, very specific criteria even when we moved our target area from Santa Monica to Brentwood and then, again, to Pacific Palisades. She was not only an expert who shared thoughtful insights on market dynamics, local trends, quality of builders, etc. but also was a perfectionist who didn't want to just find us a home but wanted us to find our dream home. And, during a period of time when there was literally nothing that she thought would be amazing for us, whereas most brokers would have still tried to get us to buy something, She recommended to us that we rent. That's not a broker, that's a friend and helped us to find an amazing rental. Once we found our dream home, she was a master strategist who helped us to navigate a very competitive bidding situation in a complex transaction with expertise that would make even the finest corporate attorneys blush. She was not only super helpful but her contacts and relationships in the industry also saved us a lot of money through informal conversations that educated us on some thorny issues. While I don't expect to move for a long time, if I do, there's only one person I'll call.
Read More...Cindy Ambuehl has positioned herself as the “go to” agent for high end, luxury services, and it’s all due to her tenacity, trustworthiness, experience, and heart.
