About Kurtesa

A real person, on your side.

I am a licensed real estate agent and a Certified Senior Transition Specialist serving the San Fernando and San Gabriel Valleys of Los Angeles, Southern California. As a former bank examiner and bank auditor I have extensive knowledge of consumer and commercial real estate laws and regulations, and foreclosure processes. I use this expertise to help clients confidently navigate the real estate market and make informed decisions. I specialize in assisting older adults and their families through every step of the transition process. Whether you're preparing a home sale, exploring independent living, assisted living, or skilled nursing communities or coordinating a move, I provide personalized guidance and trusted resources. Through my network of referral partners, I can also connect you with professionals who help manage the move and identify options to help pay for senior living. If you or a loved one are planning a move or need real estate guidance, I'd be honored to help.

What Kurtesa can put to work

Three programs. One recommendation.

Kurtesa stays your agent of record. Zoom Casa is the underwriter and operational backstop behind the offer, never the salesperson.

Up to 85% up front, less reserves. The remaining balance (minus a one-time program fee) is paid when the home resells on the open market. Final terms are issued in writing. Not all properties qualify.

The standard

One standard. Six rules. Every consultant.

Whichever consultant you talk to, these are the things they will not bend on. They are the operating creed John writes for the floor: Casa Core. Now you get to hold us to them.

  1. 01
    Your offer is back in 24 hours.
    Underwritten by hand by your consultant before they call. No "we strive to," no "times may vary." Twenty-four hours.
  2. 02
    If the math doesn't work, we tell you.
    Same call. We'd rather lose a deal cleanly than win one with pressure. If a different option fits better (listing traditionally, a HELOC, sitting tight), we say so.
  3. 03
    You get one named human, start to close.
    Direct line, direct email. The same consultant from offer to keys. Not a rep, not a queue, not a "your account is being transferred to."
  4. 04
    Every fee is on the term sheet.
    Program fee, holdback, closing math, the upside split, all on one page, all in plain numbers. No "subject to underwriting," no surprises at signing.
  5. 05
    You keep the upside. We document the floor.
    Cash Offer+ pays you up to 85% upfront in as fast as 10 to 15 days; the remaining 15%+ (minus fee) comes back when the home re-sells. We earn on the program fee, not on your equity.
  6. 06
    No pressure language. Anywhere.
    No countdown timers. No "act fast." No "limited spots." If the deal works for both sides, both sides will know within an hour of the call.
