Melissa and Paul met in 1997 and never looked back. An instant synergy soon became not only what is now an incredible entrepreneurial success, but a love for each other and the family of our dreams. Everything we cherish comes from Topanga: our livelihood, our friendships, and the ability to contribute to a place like no other.
Ours is a daily practice of sharing the beauty of The Topanga Life. We recognize the privilege it is to be part of this Community and will always remain committed to leading in all that is Topanga real estate. We have a passion for what we do and it drives us to constantly reimagine what’s possible for Topanga Real Estate and the Community itself.
Ever since the ancient Chumash Indians first settled here in Topanga, people have discovered the delightful charms of this 18 square-mile community whose name means “above it all”.
Nestled above the glorious Pacific Ocean, Topanga Canyon is home to 11,000 acres of state park. Explore horse trails, and rushing brooks, savor spectacular mountain vistas; but also enjoy the vibrancy of Topanga village, boasting unique boutiques, art studios, organic restaurants, cosmopolitan cafes, yoga, and live theater.
With Santa Monica and Malibu only minutes away and easy access to the 101 freeway to downtown LA, this unique oasis sports 21st-century amenities while maintaining the serenity of a rural retreat.
Topanga invites you to join an eclectic community of musicians and artists, globetrotters and jet setters, who appreciate the splendor of nature, whilst being only a laptop away from the fast lane.
Paul and Melissa approached my house with such a helpful critical eye. They pointed out a few things I had missed in preparing my house for sale on my own. They didn't settle for good enough, but really wanted each room to shine. They loaned me a few key pieces to help this happen. Their photographer also has an excellent aesthetic sense, and is willing to make adjustments for each photo. In the end, they got my house on the market in less than a week, and it sold for the amount I wanted, with the terms I wanted, in under 48 hours.

The best in Topanga. I recommend Melissa to all. The process of buying and selling is important at every stage. I am confident Melissa can lead you through every stage from the beginning to the end until your goal is reached. Good luck to all.
Buyer | Seller
We found our dream house and needed to sell ours immediately. Paul & Melissa represented both us and the Seller, negotiated a fair deal, listed our house during the holiday break in record rain, then brought us an over full price offer from a wonderful family they represented within a few days. We closed soon after and love our new home. They gave 100% and their ability to deal with a complicated transaction with everyone coming out happy was very impressive. Great people too. Highly recommended!
