The price
I start with homes like yours that sold nearby and the ones a buyer will compare yours with today, then the house itself. You get a range and every sale behind it.
For homeowners
Free home valuation, in Los Angeles and Orange County
What’s your home worth?
Not an instant estimate. Type your address, and I’ll weigh recent sales and the home itself, then send you a realistic range.
Free and no obligation. A real person reviews every address.

How we’d sell your home. Starting with the price.
The launch
Before it’s listed, we plan it with you: what’s worth fixing and what to skip, the photos and the video, the price and the day it goes live. Then the MLS, our audience and Explore’s buyer alerts carry it.
The offers
Joe and I read every offer together and lay them out side by side: the price, the buyer’s loan, the contingencies and the dates. Then we tell you which one we’d take and why.

“I had a very positive experience working with Slava. I was pleasantly surprised how professional and knowledgeable he was for his age. He helped me with the valuation of my house. His knowledge of the housing market helped me feel confident in making an informed decision. I felt like he really took the time to learn my situation and what I am looking for. In the past I have worked with agents who didn't take the time to do this. I would highly recommend Slava to any of my friends and family in the future.”
“Great experience working with Slava and Joe. They were knowledgeable responsive and really worked well together. You can tell they care about their clients and make the process a lot less stressful. Would absolutely work with them again.”
“Working with Slava was such a fantastic experience! He has this wonderful mix of discretion, precision, and genuine care that really sets him apart. From our very first chat, I could tell he was all about handling every detail with professionalism and honesty, which is pretty rare in real estate. If you’re looking for someone who really gets the ins and outs of luxury living and knows how important trust is, Slava is definitely the guy you need!”
Home valuation questions.
A CMA is a personalized report that compares your home to similar properties that recently sold or are on the market nearby. It is prepared by a licensed REALTOR® using local MLS data, the condition of your home and the neighborhood context, not a generic online guess. The goal is a realistic listing or sale price range for your specific home right now.
Online estimates are built on broad data and often miss upgrades, layout, street noise, or how homes on your block actually sell. A CMA from Slava Ploshkin looks at your home, comparable sales, active competition and current trends in Los Angeles or Orange County. An automated widget cannot weigh any of that.
Yes. You can request a free comparative market analysis (CMA) for any property in Los Angeles or Orange County. A CMA is a broker-prepared market report, not a licensed appraisal. There is no obligation to list or sell.
Both of us. Slava is your day-to-day contact: the price, the prep, the launch, showings, offers and every escrow deadline. Joe, a broker for more than 25 years, reads every offer and contract with him before you sign. You get two people on your sale, and the second one costs you nothing extra.
Yes. That's the whole point of asking us instead of an algorithm. A high number feels good for a week, then the house sits on the market and you cut the price in public. We show you the sales behind every figure, tell you where we would list, and explain what could raise it. If the honest answer is 'not yet', you'll hear that.
Usually you need to do less than you think. Paint, lighting, landscaping and the small repairs buyers notice in the first minute tend to pay off. Full remodels rarely do right before a sale. We walk the house with you, split the list into 'worth it' and 'skip it', and give you two prices: as is, and after the short list. Then you decide with real numbers.
The MLS is only the start, since every listing goes there. We film your home for TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, where Slava has an audience of more than 10 million, and on the day it lists Explore emails it to every buyer whose saved search fits.
Then we find out why before anyone talks about cutting the price. We look at it every week: showings, views on Explore, and what buyers and their agents say. If people come and don't offer, it's usually the price or something they see in the house, and we'll tell you which. If few come at all, we change how the home is shown first.
Side by side, and not only by price. We look at the buyer's loan and down payment, the contingencies, the deposit, the closing date and anything they're asking of you, because the highest offer isn't always the one that closes. Joe and Slava read every offer together, then tell you which one we'd take and why.
