Meet Liliana Chavez

We have known Shelton for almost 6 years. She found us our first lease in LA and now, 5 years later just helped us buy our first (incredible!) house. Her whole team was always on hand for help and advice. I am convinced that Shelton’s personable, unique and friendly approach was what bagged us the house of our dreams! Could not recommend more!

Shelton and her team are unparalleled! We could not have had a smoother or more successful sale of our beloved home.

Shelton is our superhero! We first met Shelton ten years ago when she wasn’t in real estate yet and reconnected a couple of months ago when she was the selling agent at an open house. As soon as I saw the way she had presented the house, her knowledge of the market, and her overall professionalism, I told my husband I wanted her as our agent. The thing that really stuck with me the most was her kindness and warmth, and all-in attitude. She was committed, and her positivity radiated to everyone around her. Within one month, yes, one month, in this competitive market, she not only found us a great off-market offer for our condo but also found us our d...

This was my first home purchase, and I cannot speak highly enough about Shelton and her team. The attention to detail is phenomenal. Shelton is a force of nature and makes this process even more exciting than I expected. Her authentic enthusiasm and never-forcing-or-selling-anything attitude are exactly what I wanted in my broker. She knows the home will speak to you and sell itself. To say I recommend Shelton and her team would be an understatement. It would be a mistake not to use her.

Shelton is a top-notch realtor and my wife and I both highly recommend her. She has represented us both as the buyer and the seller. Her team is lightning quick, responsive, and organized, and makes the process of buying or selling both stress-free and actually enjoyable. She never pushes you and is always in your corner; she returns every call within minutes, and because of her, we have both found an incredible home and made a LOT more money than we anticipated when we sold. She has incredible contractor resources and has a keen sense for design when it comes to preparing your home for sale. The money we invested to prepare our home, guided by Shel...

Shelton and her team are amazing! They really do go above and beyond for their clients. The whole experience from start to finish is enjoyable with them. They take the stress out of buying a house and guide you through every step of the way. I cannot recommend them enough!

I was referred to Shelton when I was just beginning to think about buying my first place. At the time, I was still on the fence between a condo and a house, but Shelton helped me organize my thoughts and was very knowledgeable about real estate and investments. Even in the current crazy market, I found my perfect place and got it below asking, unheard of right now. The escrow process with all the inspections was seamless. As a first-time buyer, I needed a lot of hand-holding, and Shelton and her team were there for me every step of the way. I couldn't have asked for a better or more hardworking agent.

Shelton Wilder is always all in! Her expertise in the LA real estate market is knowledgeable, genuine, and honest. What you see is what you get. She and each member of her team will make sure you have a smooth transaction to get you into your new home or help you sell your existing home. Each member of her team was easy to work with and executed the necessary steps in order for us to complete the purchase easily. In our initial conversation, she listened to our goals and asked questions to refine the criteria carefully. During showings, she gave her honest opinion and guided us through the process. It's no wonder she's increased her team size to acc...

Best realtor in LA! She goes above and beyond for her clients. She held our hand through every part of the listing process and escrow. Cannot recommend her enough!

Shelton and her team are incredible. I got so lucky with Shelton on my side for buying my first home. She thinks of everything and is 100% invested in her client’s happiness. I would give her 10 stars if I could! Thank you, Shelton! You are a game-changer!

Shelton wilder is a rockstar! Her team got my house listed in one week, had 130 showings in 5 days, received 35 offers, closed in 10 days at 41% over the asking price! Shelton is a phenomenon!

Shelton Wilder proved me wrong. When I first met her, I thought Here we go, another real estate agent and yeah, she's nice and all, but can she sell a house? Ladies and gentlemen, I severely underestimated her. She is one of the hardest-working people I've ever met. She is also incredibly motivated. She walked into our house, looked around, and decided our place was an undiscovered gem. My husband agreed, and from then on, they were unstoppable. I was thinking great, we have some dreamers trying to sell a house. Boy, was I wrong. Let's just say our house sold for $200,000 more than the listing price. We were ecstatic. She kept us thoroughly informed...

It is impossible to refer to Shelton Wilder as merely a realtor. Her insight, creativity, commitment, and marketing intelligence have gone so far beyond any other realtor I've ever worked with, and there have been quite a few in my lifetime. Shelton is, in a word, brilliant. She has boundless talent in what she does and has brought selling houses to an entirely different level altogether. With regard to my house, she took it over from another Realtor® who had let it sit on the market for 3 months. Shelton had a vision of how my house would sell quickly and above the list price and she brought her vision to fruition. My house was sold by the end of t...

To date, I have never worked with someone who has more perseverance, dedication, and consistency than you. Your work ethic is the best around and your spirit is a bright light that has shot through me and that shines everywhere you go. You are not simply a real estate agent you are an incredible worker, an ambitious businesswoman, and a compassionate friend. Shelton, there are not enough words to thank you for your tireless efforts in helping my husband and me find a place to root down here in LA. I am not just recommending you for any and all real estate needs people may have; I am singing your goddamn praises because you so deserve it. Thank you f...

I cannot imagine having a more helpful and conscientious real estate agent. Leah helped us step by step through any and all procedures, for example, something as basic as using DocuSign. Leah is efficient, anticipates sellers' questions and needs, knows the ropes of her profession, and never seems like she is bothered or too busy to help a client for any reason. She is also very cheerful under all circumstances. I recommend her very highly. She is a class act in her field.

Leah Josephson Smith deserves a thumbs up big time for her sensitivity, professional attitude, thoroughness, and conscientious can-do behavior as a realtor. My sister and I were very lucky to have been represented by her. She was always available to answer questions and be helpful in any way we needed her. She was thoughtful and enthusiastic, and did an excellent job selling our mom's condo in Beverly Hills. We are grateful.

Leah went above and beyond my expectations as an agent. Her positivity, responsiveness, professionalism, and ability to perform made this process both quick and enjoyable. I'd recommend her to anyone.

Shelton represented the sale of my Brentwood condominium and she surpassed all of my expectations. Shelton and her team took care of the entire process from start to finish. In record time, my home was staged, beautifully photographed and launched onto the market. As a busy professional, the last thing I wanted to worry about was the stress of selling my home. Shelton made sure we felt guided throughout the entire process and I honestly can’t imagine choosing any other real estate agent to represent us. Five stars!

I am so grateful I hired Shelton to sell my home. Her patience, calm demeanor, and upbeat positivity helped to take the emotions out of what I was afraid would be an extremely stressful endeavor. Firstly, she knows how to price a home correctly, so that it attracts a lot of buyers, and doesn’t necessitate price cuts. Then she is always available for questions, advice, and hand-holding. Her team is professional and upbeat, and savvy to great marketing strategies. My home sold within 24 hours of hitting the MLS above my asking price, and I credit Shelton for facilitating this. She is the best of the best!

Shelton and her team are a breath of fresh air in the hustle and bustle of the LA area bringing Southern charm and impeccable white glove service to our real estate transaction this past year. We are so grateful to Shelton and her team for the out-of-this-world marketing of our home in the Santa Monica Canyon and for getting multiple offers and the house sold in just one week for $1M over the asking price. Shelton then took us from house to house listening to all of our dreams and needs and together we found the most incredible place to call home and enjoy our family including our eight grandchildren. The home was not yet complete and Shelton ensure...

Shelton was wonderful to work with! She was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and her team was great as well. She was patient and considerate of our needs, and always available to answer any questions and concerns that we had. Shelton kept us informed throughout the process of selling our home, and made sure we were comfortable with each step along the way, from staging and listing, and to the escrow process. The sale went smoothly, and we're happy she found us a great buyer!

Shelton is amazing! We trusted her to purchase our home (sight unseen!) and are very happy we did. Shelton and her team are great with communication and kept us updated on everything from Facetime tours to inspections. Shelton's hard work kept the homebuying process exciting and enjoyable for us. Her aid in negotiating the purchase of the existing furniture was invaluable. She is an absolute pleasure, extremely informed and her relationships with other agents were key in securing our new home. As soon as we landed in LA, our new Palisades home was ready for us and we could not be more elated to have had such a smooth transition. Thank you, Shelton...

Shelton and her team are the best to work with. My husband and I easily viewed over 50 homes with Shelton, and she remained positive and optimistic throughout the 1-year process. Her communication and honesty were beyond appreciated - we never felt like we were in the dark, and even had our first baby during escrow on our new home. She was able to get significantly below asking in a seller’s market, and we highly recommend the SWG to any and everyone looking to buy or sell!

Shelton and her team are outstanding. True professionals. They were always available and worked with us through the entire process. Whenever there was an issue it was addressed immediately. Their knowledge of the local market, experience, and level of service is elite. They communicated with us, always keeping us informed and up to date. Shelton is one of the most impressive people I've ever worked with. I'm grateful she represented us.

Working with Shelton and her team was an absolute dream. Her level of care and attention to what we wanted in a home was incredible. While the process of looking for the house was fun and easy-going, Shelton and her team really shone once we settled on a place. We had heard from others about their home-buying experience with other realtors, and it sounded like a nightmare. Working with Shelton was a breeze! Her team was exceptionally organized and well connected - we hardly felt any stress at all. It was so, so lovely. Anyone should feel lucky to work with Shelton and her team. When the time comes, we will absolutely be working with her again.

Working with Shelton and her team was fantastic. Her communication was always clear and concise. She's a great listener. On this particular transaction, she represented me selling a property for the first time. 4 and 1/2 years ago, she was amazing then as well supporting me and getting my mother out of harm's way in her residence of 36 years with stairs. My mother would have never moved if it was not for Shelton. Five stars is not enough, she should get more.

Shelton is simply the best! She worked to find us the perfect home and went the extra mile even after we closed. So grateful! Shelton and her team are incredibly detail oriented, passionate and thoughtful.

Shelton and her team were beyond amazing. So efficient, knowledgeable, friendly, professional and easy to work with. In a difficult market she got us the most amazing outcome. I highly recommend Shelton she is a super star!

I have never come across a company that has been headed up by the most amazing woman, Shelton Wilder. Shelton and her team took care of everything. They all show up looking like they have walked off a Paris runway, they are punctual, they have a look that is unified and every single aspect of setting up open house with Shelton's magical touches. Her monogrammed M&Ms, measuring tapes with Shelton's initials, hot chocolate chip cookies and an array of fantastic marketing artistic photos of all the sold homes and condo's she has sold around the world. Shelton is very hands on and was in touch with me many different times a day by phone, texting with al...

Shelton and her team are the most extraordinary group in this industry! I cannot say enough positive things about how they helped us through this process. At every turn they helped us navigate. We are the homeowners we are today because of the SW group! We love you Shelton and Team!

I cannot thank Shelton and her team enough for helping us buy our first home. Shelton is warm, charming and always does best by her clients. Shelton stuck with us through a long search (1.5 years) where she kept up hope that we would find exactly what we wanted. Shelton was never pushy when we passed on places we didn't love and would always say "this or better!" When the perfect home came on market, Shelton made sure we got it! Shelton and her team are good people, have high integrity and are frankly a pleasure to spend a Sunday afternoon at an open house with. Highly recommend!

Working with Shelton and team was a dream! The best I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve worked with quite a few for our different property-related needs. They are friendly, knowledgeable, kind, and we never felt like they were pressuring us. They went out of their way to accommodate our needs. And even though they are very busy and have many clients, they treat you like you were their only client! Whether buying selling, or renting, can’t go wrong with Shelton.

To say I don't write reviews is an understatement. However Shelton and her team were so exceptional I wanted to write something. They helped us prepare our family home, they stayed present while we navigated a lot of challenging dynamics and we sold our house to the best buyer for us being guided all the way. She and her team are both professional and warm and kept us on top of everything we needed to do. I would work with them over and over again.

Elana was an outstanding agent, helping throughout the process and making the selling experience less stressful. I would recommend her highly for all your selling and buying needs.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Shelton Wilder and it was truly an incredible experience. I wholeheartedly endorse her with the strongest of recommendations. Shelton's dedication and commitment to her clients are truly exceptional. Her helpful nature and positive personality make the entire real estate process not only efficient but also enjoyable. Shelton's ability to pivot and adapt to the ever-changing real estate landscape is second to none. She approaches challenges with a can-do attitude, always finding effective solutions and opportunities where others might see obstacles. Her positivity is infectious, creating an at...

Shelton and her whole team are a dream to work with. She makes you feel like you are the most important client she has, regardless of how big or small the buy or lease is. Shelton cares about every part of the process, finding you the perfect home, negotiating the most insane deals, making sure your emotional state is being respected, and then celebrating the win at the end! Her connections with other realtors have helped us each time, getting us the perfect home before it even goes on the market. Truly the best realtor and team out there!

When I crossed paths with Shelton, I was stuck in a rut of doubt, convinced that buying a home in bustling Los Angeles was beyond my reach. With the impending arrival of our first child and the urgency to flee our unsafe neighborhood, the pressure was mounting. The real estate market felt like a maze of uncertainty, and as a first-time buyer, I was overwhelmed by fear. But Shelton she was more than just a realtor; she was a beacon of hope in my darkest hour. From the moment we met, she took my trembling hand and guided me through every twist and turn of the home-buying process. With her by my side, what once seemed insurmountable became manageable. ...

Shelton is amazing! Very professional, honest and reliable. I cannot recommend a better agent. From the moment I called her she was easy to talk to understood our families urgency to find a home. Even though it was late into the evening when we first spoke she immediately made appointments for us to see homes that met all our needs. In less than 24 hours we saw 4 homes. She is fast, thoughtful and truly out for her clients best interest. She did not pressure me or try to convince me in a direction that would make her more money. I had seen another property with another agent earlier in my home searching journey and because of the rules of real estat...

Shelton's expertise, dedication, and personalized approach made purchasing and selling our homes an exceptional experience from start to finish. When we met Shelton, her passion for real estate and commitment to her clients shone through. She took the time to understand our needs, preferences, and goals, ensuring that every step of the process was tailored to our specific situation. One of Shelton's greatest strengths is her deep knowledge of the Santa Monica market. Her insights into local trends, neighborhoods, and property values were invaluable. Communication was another area where Shelton truly excelled. She was always accessible, responsive, a...

Shelton was an outstanding advocate for selling our home and purchasing a new one. She is a clear communicator with integrity and heart, and was always committed to meeting our needs. We were fortunate to have her represent us.

Shelton Wilder provided us with the most excellent service in selling our home, and in buying a new home. She is the consummate professional. Among the 7 real estate agents we have worked with in the past, she easily stands out. Shelton made a genuine commitment to take care of our business during these transactions and did not disappoint. We felt free to contact her with any questions and concerns and if she didn't respond immediately, she always returned our calls promptly. Her extensive experience enabled her to counsel us in making decisions that were fair and appropriate. We felt respected and once she gave us input, she stepped aside and honor...

We've turned to Shelton for multiple transactions over the years, and each experience has been nothing short of fantastic. When it came time to lease my house, Shelton made everything so easy and stress-free. Their attention to detail and market know-how really stood out from the start. She kept me in the loop the whole time and was always there to answer any questions. Shelton's openness and professionalism gave me peace of mind, knowing my property was in good hands.

Shelton Wilder and her team are exceptional, an absolute pleasure and fun to work with! From start to finish, they were professional, communicative, and always responsive to our needs. Every team member was incredibly knowledgeable and made the entire home-buying process smooth and stress-free. We learned a lot throughout the whole process as they were educating us every step of the way and we also learned so much about the market. Their dedication and honesty ensured we found our dream home within our desired price range, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Shelton and her team truly went above and beyond, ensuring we felt confident every ...

We’ve had the pleasure of selling two homes with Shelton, and in both cases, she has gone above and beyond every step of the way. She successfully sold both properties off-market and above asking, each with tight closing windows—and made it feel effortless. Her market knowledge, strategic guidance, and unwavering commitment to her clients set her apart. What truly makes Shelton exceptional is how seamless and personal she makes the process. Her team is incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and supportive—from start to finish, they handled everything with care and precision. We’ve always felt fully taken care of, and more than that, we’ve always e...

Shelton came in to our place after 3 months of a failed listing and expertly provided feedback on why it hadn’t sold, listed it and negotiated a wonderful deal for our closure. We are very happy. Jessica Yang was incredibly helpful from her team as well.

We loved working with Shelton for the purchase of our home! She was very knowledgeable, patient, positive and kind, which is incredible necessary when you are going through the very complicated process of buying a home in LA. Her team was so organized and responsive and handled our buy perfectly, with lots of great recommendations for inspectors, insurance agents, and tradesman for repairs along the way. Their level of service was unparalleled. We will absolutely work with her again and recommend her to anyone!

I honestly can’t say an enough good things about Shelton and her team. From day one, she made the process of selling my house feel manageable—and enjoyable. Thanks to their guidance on pricing, timing, and staging, we had multiple offers within just a few days of listing. I was blown away by how quickly and smoothly everything moved. Throughout it all, Shelton was super communicative, honest, and incredibly supportive. I always felt like Shelton genuinely cared about getting me the best outcome. I highly recommend Shelton. You will be in great hands.

Shelton is an excellent negotiator who surrounds herself with a highly capable team. Not only is Shelton a market expert, skillful negotiator, and subject matter expert, but she was also very kind and empathetic when discussing our concerns. She was a great advocate for us, and she masterfully managed what was (for us) a challenging escrow process. Shelton was very responsive to our calls and texts, and we appreciated how she both understood and fully answered our questions. Her team reflects her attributes, and she seems like a great boss who respects those who work for her.

Shelton and her team overdelivered on every front. I had zero extra cycles to spend on my project, and through clear and consistent communication with Shelton and crew, I quickly learned that I wouldn't need to worry at all. Every step of the way, she had the right answers and the right experts to get the job done.

I cannot recommend Shelton Wilder and her team highly enough. We've now had the good fortune to have her as our agent twice in one year and she has proven, yet again, to be the utmost professional, kind, considerate, funny, smart and really knows her stuff! Not only is she a terrific agent but she's a great person. Do yourself a favor and don't hesitate to call Shelton and her team for any and all of your real estate needs! You won't be disappointed!
