Testimonials

  • Travis Canby and Judith Lovingfoss were amazing realtors. My husband I were buying our first home together in a residential area of Orange County, and they were incredibly helpful and patient as we fumbled our way through the process. Immediately after we began to work with them, they had put us on a program that would inform us of what homes were available in the areas and price ranges that we were looking for. We were able to see some of these homes before they were even posted to Zillow or Redfin. They explained every detail very clearly and answered every text message promptly. They ensured that we stayed on track every step of the way through escrow. Working with them, we were able to buy a home that we loved in less than two months. My husband and I are very satisfied with their diligence and work ethic and cannot recommend them enough as your next real estate agent (s).

  • “Absolutely loved working with Judith Lovingfoss and Travis Candy (Realtors)! As a first time home buyer their guidance and market insights were much appreciated. While many factors may contribute to securing a dream home, all the credit should go to Judith and Travis. They went above and beyond to close the deal in a very competitive market. Furthermore they ensured a seamless purchasing process by managing all parties involved and being available 24/7. I highly recommend Judith and Travis as real estate agents and look forward working with them in the future!”

  • “I cannot say enough amazing things about my real estate agents Judith Lovingfoss and Travis Canby. I’m typing this review from my beautiful new condo in Sherman Oaks, CA. A home I have because of them. I was a first-time home buyer who didn’t know anything about the home buying process. Anyone who has ever bought or sold a home knows how complicated, confusing, and overwhelming it can be, especially when you’re doing it by yourself. But Judith and Travis were there every step of the way and always had my back. Buying or selling your home is a huge life decision and it’s important to trust you realtor. And these are the most trustworthy real estate agents you will ever meet. And here’s why. Travis and Judith constantly go above and beyond. I was in the midst of having knee surgery when looking for my condo. They vetted showings for me, worked around my busy schedule, managed my inspection when I was on crutches, met my contractor for me when I couldn’t drive, took measurements on my behalf, and even helped me physically move items the seller had left behind because I couldn’t do heavy lifting after surgery. This isn’t even a comprehensive list. They never rushed or pushed me beyond my comfort level, they took the time to show me all my options, run comps on the area, and allowed me to make truly informed decisions while giving me excellent advice and guidance. Their only goal was to make sure I found a home I loved and that was clear. And while buying a home while having knee surgery doesn’t necessarily seem like a good idea, I needed that timing due to other variables. And the only reason I was able to do both was because of their support. Anytime I expressed a concern, mainly around buying a home while undergoing surgery, their response was “how can WE solve this,” we were a team. I’m not sure any other realtor would go to such great lengths to help their client. As I mentioned, I’m typing this review looking out the giant glass doors of my new living room, staring at the tips of the San Gabriel mountains in my recently purchased condo. This site made even sweeter when I remember I paid UNDER ASK. Yup, in LA, I paid under asking price because of Judith’s incredible negotiating skills. That is unheard of, especially in Los Angeles real estate. With all this evidence of their exemplary professionalism, trustworthiness, and outstanding qualifications..it bears mentioning that I am leaving out a crucial detail. When you work with Judith Lovingfoss and Travis Canby you are guaranteed to have fun. They make a typically difficult, strenuous, and complicated process an enjoyable experience. They are hilarious, high-energy, positive, and a blast to be around. It’s infectious. They are not only your realtors, they are your friends. I’ve even hung out with them since my purchase and it won’t be the last time. Yelp is not the first forum where I have recommended Travis Canby and Judith Lovingfoss. When my under-ask offer was accepted, I took the news to Instagram. Immediately a friend from work told me she and her husband were ready to buy a home and were looking for real estate agents they could trust, so I put them in touch. She and her husband had TWO offers for single-family SoCal homes accepted in their budget in like one week. Which is out of control how does that happen??? It seems like witchcraft sometimes. I can’t explain it, but I don’t care because I’m staring at the San Gabriel mountains in my new home and life is good.”

  • “Our experience with Canby and Co. was exceptional! We first met Travis at an open house that he was hosting. The reason we went to this open house without a real estate agent was because we had two bad experiences with other agents that supposedly wanted to represent us. The first agent we found on Redfin. She did not have time for us, let alone to meet us in person. Our second agent continued to lie and told us, the home we were interested in had an offer. One week later we saw an open house on the same home. So, we decided to ditch our real estate agent and go to the open house. This was our first encounter with Travis, the tallest guy in the room, hosting the open house. His bubbly and friendly personality was very inviting. We decided to give him a call and have him represent us. This was the start of an awesome journey in finding our first home! Travis invited us to go over a plan of attack in finding our first home. His office was professional and very modern looking. He sat us down and had a list of questions for us. So, he can get an idea of what we were looking for in a home. He also walked us through the process on home buying. We left his office feeling comfortable and positive that we we’re going to find our home in this crazy market. Not even a day later and Travis was texting us about homes in areas we were interested in living. We didn’t experience this level of aggressive compassion before and not when looking for a home. This is important because in today’s market homes are selling within days after they are listed. Travis was really responsive. It was crazy because I could text him at anytime of the day and he would text me back faster than some of my friends. He would get responses on listings very fast, sometimes even immediately after we had spoken. The hunt for our first home was on. We thought this process was going to be easy. It wasn’t easy but with Travis as our agent he would tell us to keep level headed and forward and “be engaged in the process – not attached to the outcome”. That always stuck with me. There were times when listing agents were not so helpful. There was this one time we were interested in a house and Travis kept trying his hardest to reach out to the listing agent named Marvin. Through numerous calls, emails, voice-mails and text messages Marvin finally responded after 4 days. He claims he was busy and the home was already off the market. I can’t believe they’re real estate agents like Marvin out there. We thought this was the only real estate agent with an issue. Thank God we had Travis as our agent and we found another house that we wanted to put an offer on. He reached out to Louis, another listing agent who told Travis, he didn’t want to show the home until the open house the following week. Possibly to get a bidding war started. We showed up to the open house and we nicknamed this house “The Purple House”. This house was Laker purple from the outside and the inside. They had closed curtains, completely blocking out the light, it made it feel like a dungeon. Thank God Travis was there. He was the only real estate agent that spoke up about how dark it was and demanding the curtains be open. Finally we got to see the true colors of the home and I do not mean purple. We decided to make an offer on this house anyway because of the location. Louis the listing agent did not respond on our offer, he told us he was waiting for other offers to come in. What a jerk! Travis kept bugging him to make a decision so we can move forward. Finally they took a cash offer and we were left in the dust. Travis motivated us and explained it was not meant to be and we would find something better. I can’t believe the dedication in Travis. After three months and numerous declined offers. Travis held a meeting with us and he told us he would dedicate a whole week to us. Also, he promised he would find us a house that week. We were doubtful but felt reassured by him. We went to his office and printed out numerous listings that we went to go see that week. We must have seen over five homes a day. Our plan of attack was to put multiple offers on multiple listings. There was an house in particular that my girlfriend thought we would not get since it was at the top our budget. Travis wasn’t so doubtful and took us to go see it anyway. Unfortunately it was raining that day. Poor Travis was underneath the rain getting soaked trying to open this weird supra lock code. While this was happening another seller’s agent showed up asking why we were there. Travis told the agent we had an appointment during this time. He was of no help and did not know how to open the lock box. Eventually Travis propped it open and we walked into an amazing 1920’s Tudor home. This house was gorgeous and we instantly fell in love with it. We shortly made an offer, which was accepted the next day. Just like Travis said, he found us our home that week. He was with us during the whole escrow and closing process. He was always calling us and making sure everything was okay. It was so crazy we moved in days before Christmas. When we finally got our keys and opened the door, Travis left us a beautiful welcoming card and a beautiful bottle of champagne. This guy will go beyond your expectations. We are so happy to have found an awesome real estate agent and a new friend.”

  • “We initially selected Travis Canby & Judith Lovingfoss of Canby & Company since they had sold a house nearby to our uncle’s home in Hollywood Hills. They were knowledgeable, energetic and on top of that, they were really nice people. As soon as they became our realtors, the COVID pandemic hit, but they still had a positive attitude that they would be able to find a buyer. Although we had 2 different buyers that fell out, they persisted and eventually found “the Buyer” without going on the MLS. Travis & Judith always kept us informed every step of the way as to how things were progressing or not. We were so fortunate to have them as our real estate agents and would recommend them highly!”

  • “I had the pleasure of working with Travis Canby and Judith Lovingfoss at Canby & Co for multiple real estate transactions. They’ve represented me as both a buyer and a seller. Working with Canby & Co as a buyer, I was thrilled they were able to pin point desirable properties and obtain them for significantly under market value (typically unheard of in this market)! As a seller I could not have been more thrilled with their stellar marketing and shrewd negotiating. They successfully sold our home within a week without it ever hitting the MLS! We received multiple above asking offers as a result of their efforts and proceeded to close quickly with the smoothest escrow of all time. Travis & Judy are professional, organized, and extremely hard working real estate agents. Beyond that, I am proud to call them my friends! They have such great personalities that every transaction is truly as much fun as it is profitable. If you are looking to buy or sell a home I highly recommend working with Canby & Company as your Realtor!”

  • “These two!! Last year my husband and I started looking for a house that can accommodate our growing family. A friend recommended Travis and Judith so we reached out to them, and I’m SO GLAD we did! We fell in love with them from the very first time we met them and sat down to discuss what type of property we wanted. I couldn’t help but notice their enthusiasm and positive energy. All throughout the search process (which took a whole year!!) they were always on top of things, always on time, always within reach even though this was a LONG drive for them. And when we finally found our dream house, we started one of the most painful escrows in the history of escrow, lol! No joke! But these guys were absolutely amazing. There was not a problem that popped up that they didn’t take care of, and believe me, there were A LOT. We ended up buying our dream house AND selling our current house in a matter of days. I cannot say enough great things about Travis and Judith. They are truly pleasant, hard-working, wonderful people (not to mention totally adorable!) we feel incredibly blessed to have found them! God bless!”

  • “We are so lucky to have met this duo! Being new to LA and home buying we needed guidance, education, and someone trustworthy to guide us. Travis and Judy did that and more. Not only did they help us find an amazing home, but we will be friends for life with them and will always remember how knowledgeable and amazing they were in helping us achieve our goal. We can not recommend them enough. Thank you for an amazing experience!”

  • “I had the pleasure of working with Travis Canby and Judith Lovingfoss, owners of the Canby & Co. real estate team when selling my home in Burbank. These Realtors are unlike any I’ve encountered before, their work ethic and communication is impeccable! They fought daily marketing my property and defending the price. Long story short, they sold my home with a RECORD BREAKING SALE for the neighborhood! I’m blessed to have these 2 real estate agents on my side and you will too!”

    Jules L.
  • “I could never praise Travis & Judith enough! I can share many reasons why they should be your choice but one instance stands out… I decided to sell my home in the Hollywood Hills and the previous realtor I hired wasn’t getting the job done. Canby & Co. stepped in with a brilliant game plan and a week later when I came to pick up some mail I find both in work out clothes and a shovel putting mulch on the bare spots on my yard, trimming the trees and sweeping the decks. All without me ever asking! I was blown away with their initiative. If that wasn’t enough, their marketing was so good we sold my home 3 days before the first opening house at $15k over asking price! They will be my realtors for life! They are great people, fantastic communicators and through working together have actually become friends.”

  • “These guys are legit people and professional realtors. They have been helping my clients out like no other real estate agent has, and have given me the best service I could ask for. Very easy to talk to, courteous, and they both have a passion for helping people. Would certainly recommend them to anyone I come across.“

    Luke K.
  • “Being a real estate photographer I meet a tremendous amount of real estate agents. Traveling up to the Hollywood Hills I had the pleasure of working with the Canby and Co duo and they were ultra professional and a ton of laughs. Im a stickler when it comes to details but they were next level. They made sure everything was beyond perfect for their clients. It’s really nice to see agents have a true passion for their work. I have my favorite agents our there but if you are looking for realtors who are humble with a ton of knowledge and a successful track record selling and buying homes – look no further. I really like this team and I know you will too!”

    Jared K.
  • “Travis and Judith are an answered prayer. They sold my great aunt’s home in 7 days for over what she wanted. They’re just as much about people as they are numbers and are a pleasure to work with. I’ll use them in the future and recommend them to everyone.”

    Melanie S.
  • “Travis and Judith are a breath of fresh air in today’s ultra competitive real estate sales market. As an “experienced” realtor, it was a pleasure to work with these two young, vibrant, up and coming superstars in the Hollywood Hills Real Estate market. I was extremely impressed with their enthusiasm and positivity throughout a very tough listing and sales transaction in the Outpost Estates community. If you are seeking first rate service, integrity and professionalism, I highly recommend Canby and Co. for your next sale and purchase.”

    Realtor, Keith S.
  • “Both Travis and Judy are excellent communicators. They truly do their best to work fast at finding exactly what you want. Both business locations and homes. Even when my communication may not be the best, they always stay on top of things. Judy met with me and I could see she really wanted to get to know me and made changes in her search without me even asking. Making appointments and doing extra research on local crime statistics in the areas. This is always helpful especially when you have little ones. I just wanted to thank you both and wish you the best!!!”

    Paulina S.
  • “Excellent Real Estate group! Canby & Co (Travis and Judy) are exceptional people with superlative knowledge when it comes to the real estate market of the LA and Southern California area. They go above and beyond to serve their clients.”

    Matthew R.
  • “If you want a realtor who will take great care of you, go the extra mile for you and have some fun with you…….these two are for you!! As a fellow agent in the industry I am always impressed with their creativity, diligence and hard work. They do what others resist!! I am not concerned that I am giving praise to a fellow agent as there is plenty of business to go around, and it should be assuring that someone in the business thinks highly enough about a competitor to put in a Yelp review. Travis and Judith are top notch people and will bust their — for you!!!”

    Realtor, Gregg S.
  • “I was absolutely blown away by Canby & Co. – I had my home on the market for 6 months with another realtor, then Travis & Judith stepped in and generated for me an offer ABOVE asking within days. Absolutely miracle workers. Their marketing is head and shoulders above the rest. They did a drone tour of my house which people are still talking about to this day (and I still show it off). Since then I have recommended them to family, friends and neighbors and they are constantly talk about how hard they work.”

    Michelle W.
  • “Canby & Co. helped me out with a purchase of an investment property back in late 2015. The property was far from where I was living and not easy to go see. They consistently went above and beyond in making sure I had all the relevant pictures, rental data, inspections, etc for the property to make an informed decision. Even after the purchase as I had an issue with a contractor, Travis & Judith took care of that situation to make my life easier. I’ve made multiple property purchases and there is not another more knowledgeable, but mainly hard working and honest agents available. I highly recommend Canby & Co. and hope I have to the opportunity to work with both again.”

    Richard N.
  • “Travis Canby and Judith Lovingfoss listed and sold my home in the Outpost Estates of Hollywood Hills.
    They were very professional and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed working with them and would recommend them to anyone.”

    Stephanie M.
  • “OMG! Best real estate agent ever! My fiancée and I were looking to purchase our first home. We had no idea what we were doing and didn’t know anything about real estate agents. We tried two real estate agents before we tried Travis. I guess third time is the charm. The first two real estate agents did not want to communicate with us and we felt that they were serving their high end clients before us. Travis made us feel really comfortable and was super professional. He was really genuine and really felt like he was working for you. There were times I felt sorry for him because I thought we would never find a home. But he was really patient and optimistic. I highly recommend Travis as your real estate agent because he’s not only an agent but makes you feel like family. Now we’re happy with are beautiful historical Tudor home that he found us. Also, wanted to add that the sweetest thing he did was leaving a bottle of champagne and a welcome card in our new home when we opened the door for the first time. We literally have a soft spot for Travis.”

    Marynes K.
  • “Canby & Co. is that rare realtor group who really works for their client and fights for their best interests. They sold our place for us and expertly employed resources that best marketed the property, securing the best offer possible. During every step of the process they were in constant communication with us and we were always updated on whatever changes popped up during the transaction, which was definitely welcomed and helped alleviate any anxiety, which naturally would come up with any big transaction like that. If you want realtors that are 100% on your side, Travis and his equally fantastic Judith are the team that will go above and beyond for you”

    Lawrence & Vincent
  • “Most agents I’ve dealt with in the past were very typical agents. They placed a sign in my yard and crossed their fingers hoping my home would sell. Travis was the complete opposite. I’ve honestly never had an agent work on my property day in and day out. He has a relentless mindset and sold our home for 9k over asking! We actually thought we were priced too high! It really does help to have a strong agent guiding you. I can highly recommended Travis Canby as your real estate agent.”

    Micheal G.
  • “Travis and Judith are AWESOME!!! What a pleasure is was working with both. From the beginning to the end of the sale of my rental property. It was challenging for them I know, they had to get a half bath permitted with the City of Carson (not easy to deal with) but they worked their butts off on this sale and if paid off. They dealt with the City of Carson, Planners, Engineers, Architect….but got the bathroom permitted.! They had quite a drive to the property that they made numerous times from the LA area to Carson. The whole experience was great, their marketing, knowledge and most of all he’s just nice people! We had one open house on a Sunday and the offers (32 offers) started coming in that day…. went into a 30 day escrow right away and it was such a great experience, I felt so comfortable with Canby & Co. and the best part we ended up selling the house for $61,000 over list price!!! I would highly recommend Canby & Co. if you are in the market to buy or sell.”

    Shelly O.
  • “Canby & Co. recently sold one of my investment properties in Tehachapi California. In my 45 years of experience, in buying and selling Real Estate, as an investor, this was by far the smoothest transaction I have had when doing a 1031 Exchange. The Canbys went above and beyond the normal duty of Realtors in order to “make it happen”. I am extremely happy with the outcome which, without their expertise and hard work, would have been impossible to achieve. I can highly recommend Canby & Co. to be your Realtors.”

    Ms. Mildred D.
  • “They sold our property in 11 days! Once again, 11 days! We love you Travis and Judy!”

    John & Katherine
  • “I had a job transfer from Atlanta to Los Angeles and was scared to death. I didn’t have a clue about the city nor where I was going to live. My friend told me to look up (#TallTravis) on Facebook and it was flooded with his good deeds. I reached out and we met for coffee and he walked me through a plan of attack. He promised me he would always be available and wouldn’t let me make a mistake. He kept his word. Travis kept me in line every step of the way. He even called up moving companies for me ( in Atlanta!) and got the best quote! Moving was a breeze and I will never use another agent. In my eyes, he is the best.”

    Mr. Jesse P.
  • “My move from Palm Springs to Los Angeles became easier knowing that I had someone in my corner working tirelessly to help me find the right apartment in the big city. My Palm Springs realtor referred Travis and Judith to me and I was immediately impressed. They always checked in, updated me every step of the way. When we found a few apartments that I liked, they were able to get me in to view them effortlessly – all while I resided two hours away. They finally found me THE place in Westwood and because I trusted his judgement and professionalism, I decided to rent the apartment based only on the videos they sent me from their viewing of the property. The apartment has been a great choice because it is close to my job and everything else that I am loving about Los Angeles. They went above and beyond ensuring that the landlord’s realtor compensated me for cleaning when the apartment was not received clean as well as helping me with some move-in day challenges. They treated me with respect and I felt like I was purchasing a million-dollar listing! Canby & Co. is simply the best when it comes to realtors. I am looking forward to working with both again in the future and hopefully they will help find my future homes.”
