Ryan M - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Irvine
I have relied exclusively on Ali Govahi for leasing my home in Turtle Rock, Irvine over the years and have consistently been impressed by his results. Ali’s deep knowledge of the market, combined with his meticulous and selective tenant screening process, ensures that only the most qualified and reliable tenants are chosen. His expertise in marketing, pricing, and showcasing properties enables him to secure tenants with remarkable efficiency, often with no downtime between leases.
For example, with our most recent lease in mid-August of this year, Ali not only ensured zero laps in cash flow between tenants but also negotiated a rental rate that exceeded our expectations, along with securing an excellent tenant. In comparison, a similar unit in our complex remained on the market for 35 days, while we successfully completed our lease within that time.
Ali's exceptional service is supported by his team, 'the crew,' who handle everything from repairs to painting, plumbing, and cleaning. The quality of his marketing materials—professional photos and brochures—consistently surpasses the standards typically seen, even among agents listing homes for sale.
Ali was recommended to us by a friend, and I am extremely grateful for the introduction. He is truly our Realtor for life.
Thanks Ali for your Help over the years
Greg Lally - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Anaheim Hills
It was our distinct pleasure to engage Ali Govahi from Seven Gables Real Estate for the sale of our home. The results were exceptional, with our property selling swiftly and for a price that not only met but exceeded our expectations—outperforming comparable homes in our area, including one directly across the street.
Ali’s professionalism and comprehensive understanding of both the nuanced and broader aspects of the real estate market were apparent from the outset. He remained abreast of the latest industry developments, which empowered him to guide the sales process with unmatched precision. His meticulous preparation of our property was thorough, covering everything from pre-listing inspections to consultations with staging experts and professional photographers, and even ensuring compliance with local regulations given our home’s location in a wooded area. His strategic marketing efforts generated significant interest, culminating in multiple competitive offers.
What distinguished Ali most was his steadfast commitment to our interests. Throughout the process, he consistently prioritized our needs, ensuring all decisions were made with our best interests in mind. This approach not only mitigated many of the known and latent risks, but also maximized our sales’ successful closing.
We unreservedly recommend Ali Govahi to all our friends (which we have already and will continue to do!) and family and anyone considering buying or selling a property. Ali is more than just a real estate broker and agent; he is trustworthy, a very dependable professional whose expertise and dedication are guaranteed at every stage of the process. We are immensely grateful to Ali for his outstanding support and for making our selling experience so rewarding and seamless.

Navigating the competitive and challenging rental market on my own for months proved to be an arduous task, especially with my specific locational, school district, and budgetary constraints. That’s when I turned to Ali Govahi, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, Ali managed and set my expectations realistically. His expertise was evident as he guided me to complete a thorough application package, ensuring I was well-prepared for any opportunity. Ali's dedication and professionalism were instrumental in finding the perfect property that met all our needs.
Ali’s ability to build a professional and cordial relationship with the other party was impressive, and his negotiation skills were top-notch. He adeptly handled the finer points and terms, securing the best possible deal for us.
I highly recommend Ali Govahi to anyone with a real estate need! He is not just a real estate professional; he has become my trusted advisor for life. I have already recommended him to all my friends and family, confident that they will receive the same outstanding service that I did.
Vitaly Lee - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Tustin & North Tustin
10 out of 10! Ali was truly God-sent. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional. His knowledge of the real estate business (home values, transaction flow, strategy, marketing approach, and escrow/financing business) is far superior to anything I have ever experienced! Not to mention - his enviable Rolodex of reputable and affordable contractors who agreed to push their busy schedules and other clients - at Ali's request to accommodate our urgent needs. He was with us every step of the way, it was like having a close mentor and a friend whom you can trust completely. It just also happened so that I needed to go overseas for half of the escrow/closing time, so Ali was gracious and generous with his time - directing and managing all inspections, repair/maintenance work, taking care of our 93 lbs Doberman and even fronting some of his money to cover our expenses! I have definitely found a friend and my life-long Real Estate Agent! From the bottom of our hearts - thank you, Ali!
Carol M. - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Yorba Linda
I loved working with Ali. He was attentive, listened to my needs, and was always available for me. Buying and selling a home can be extremely stressful, and Ali handled the transaction with ease. Not having to worry about any issues, because Ali paid attention to all the details in the transaction, taking the stress off of me. Ali is an agent who is very involved, and was present for showings, inspections and any other important meetings. He was extremely responsive and negotiated beautifully always looking out for my best interest, which I appreciate. Ali actually made the home buying and selling process as painless as possible. He is a true professional and I would highly recommend him!

Ali Govahi worked tirelessly over 18 months to list and sell our home that had structural problems. He was always upbeat, had excellent communication skills that made it easy for us to work together. We received offers that were above the asking price and were very pleased with the end outcome. A job well done! I will endorse him as a Real Estate Agent without any hesitation.
Steve O'Connor - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Anaheim Hills
Ali is a wonderful and excellent realtor! He is kind, professional, and most importantly, very attentive. He demonstrates the utmost in ethical behavior, and represents his clients' interests as if they were his own. As a retired police officer, I look for, and only deal with, those who are ethical, moral, and responsible. Accordingly, I was fervently impressed with Ali; not just in how he handled the purchasing of my home, but also because he demonstrated the utmost in attention as a fiduciary acting on my behalf. If one wishes to hire a realtor with their best interests in mind, one needs to look no further than Ali. He exemplifies the best of what it means to be a "True American," and he will not fail you in your greatest time of need. With passion and conviction, I highly recommend Ali to anyone seeking the professionalism, guidance, and care of a true and exceptionally honest realtor!
Taylor Ashton - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Garden Grove
We heard about Ali Govahi of Seven Gables Real Estate when he listed, help flip the property across the street by providing hands on management of the trades, and was able to sell it for a nice profit for the investor. We even toured that property and looked at the craftsmanship and details that he was able to produce by his crew. We hired Ali and his team to find us an investor for our property as we were just interested in selling ours as-is. Ali was able to get us over 15 or so offers with at least 5 of them all cash quick closes through his vast network of investors and clients. We ended up choosing one of the 5 with 2 back up offers. Ali was able to bring up the buyer’s price and also shift the commissions burden from the seller to the buyer, with a 7 day closing! We were impressed by his ability to negotiate the deal and work through the transaction with efficiency and effectiveness with both sides to accomplish the goals and make it a win-win for all concerned! We highly recommend Ali Govahi and the SoldByAliG Team of professionals that helped get this deal from start to a glorious finish!

I would highly recommend him and also I will contact him again for any real estate buy and sell in future.
Kia Kolahi - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Bel Air Residence & Van Nuys Multifamily
On my initial collaboration with Ali several years ago, I sought to refinance a multi-million-dollar commercial loan despite the presence of a Lis Pendis, which made it unapproachable by other parties. Ali not only successfully facilitated the refinancing, but also obtained a highly favorable rate. My subsequent partnership with Ali occurred during the sale of a luxury Bel Air residential property, which had previously been listed with a local broker but had not garnered any offers. Despite the broker's specialization in the area, I enlisted Ali's services and within 22 days, four legitimate buyers emerged, culminating in the prompt sale of the property. Ali is distinguished by his profound expertise in real estate matters and his consistent delivery of favorable outcomes. This is evidenced by our continued collaborations, which included the identification and subsequent renovation of a property in Garden Grove that we promptly bought and sold within a few months. His skills are not limited to his mastery of all aspects of real estate, but also extend to his remarkable negotiation abilities. We regard Ali as our esteemed and reliable family real estate professional, and look forward to future successful collaborations with him.
Lisa Fuller - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Anaheim Hills
Ali Govahi helped me to find a home this year. He was beyond amazing! He was able to secure my dream home in the midst of multiple offers, without getting into a bidding war with the other potential buyers. He was very honest and got us a very good price. He never pressured us and was very respectful of our budget and our needs. He is very well connected and knows EVERYONE. Everyone loves him and I very clearly understand why. He took care of everything, including all the inspections while I was on vacation. He follows up and checks on my family still today. He connected us with people for repairs, landscaping, pool maintenance, and anything else we needed assistance with. Every person he sent to our house was wonderful and reasonable priced. I cannot adequately express how much my family appreciates him and all he did in helping us find and move in to our perfect home! He is our agent for life!!
Nick Nawaz - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Valencia
It was truly a pleasure working with Ali. Ali made the entire process easy to understand and stress free. He was always there, any day and any time, to answers questions and provide guidance. Ali not only made the home buying experience and negotiating easy, he also helped with guidance on financing, repairs, painting, water system, security system, utilities, and flooring. Truly a one stop shop. We were relocating and not familiar with the area. Having to figure all this out on our own in a short amount of time would have been extremely stressful. Ali had all the answers and made the entire process a joy. We thank Ali and it is our pleasure to recommend Ali to everyone for all their real estate needs. Thank you Ali!!
Shannon Campbell - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Aliso Viejo
Ali is a referral from a trusted friend. When my agent could not deliver, I called on Ali and he helped me lease my 3-bedroom condo for 10% over what the market comparables were indicating, at less than half of the time the comparables were on the market, to a VERY HIGHLY qualified tenants! His professionalism showed through and through with his no holds barred approach to marketing the property, walking it, pointing out things that ultimately helped us get TOP DOLLAR for our investment property. We also retained his company’s service to professionally manage our property! He had professional photos done including drone still and video, inside photos and walk through videos as you would only expect from a luxury selling agent but he did it for our rental! His process includes a vigorous screening process as well as a face to face meeting with each and every applicant. Who does that? I think this comes from the fact that he is multifaceted real estate professional and an expert who is an investor himself so he treats every transaction as major and treats it as if it’s his own business and reputation. We loved the service we got and wondered why would anyone use any other agent and how much one could leave on the table dealing with anyone else? We are glad we have Ali and his team on our side. He is our trusted family realtor!
Jocob H. - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Long Beach

He's friendly, thoughtful, cares about our satisfaction & I would absolutely recommend him to friends and family.
Sonia Su - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Anaheim (Golden Triangle)
Ali is the best! He is very proactive and supportive in the entire process and has helped me from start to finish of buying my first home. He never pressured me to buy because he always says “I don’t want you to not be comfortable and happy with your decision.”However, he helped answer all my questions and apprehensions which definitely enlightened and helped me decide to take the big leap of faith. It took two showings before I found the place for me. And the entire time he has been very supportive. He explained things to me before I signed paperwork which is good since it’s my first time to do this! He helped me not just getting my first home closed but even in getting savings for my insurance and other expenses that goes with owning a home. He introduced me to people I need like handyman, cleaner. That to me is excellent service! Plus the service came with lots of laughter as well! That’s an added bonus for free! I highly recommend Ali to be anybody’s real estate agent, that’s the least I can do for the excellent service he’s provided me in owning my very first home!

Ali and Sherry are a great team that work so well together. They turned a small home that needed much love into a sweet little cottage that sold on the first day of open house. You couldn’t ask for anyone better to represent you.

I just moved in to my dream house which I purchased recently with Ali’s help. We closed a great deal during post COVID crazy seller’s market and we could not have done it without having a great agent like Ali! Ali is a wonderful negotiator and he has a sense of humor that’s necessary for this job, along with 100% respect to his costumer. He goes above and beyond to help you out, but he would never push you to get into a bad deal. He is 100% honest with you and a moral person. You’ll definitely need all above on your stressful journey of house hunting. I will definitely give him a call if I need to buy/sell another property.

We purchased our dream home after months of search. Ali spent tremendous time showing us homes, negotiating with seller agents, writing offers, and reviewing inspections. He is patient, cool, and trustworthy. We looked remotely for homes in orange county. When we started, we had an unclear vision about the area. We enjoyed Ali's local knowledge to finally narrowed down our search to the neighborhood that suited our desires. Since this was our first home, we could not perceive the challenges of picking the right property. Ali was very transparent about sharing his professional view of the list of criteria we had to verify. That reduced a lot of surprises. Ali did not push for buying a home ASAP. He coped with our pickiness and waited for the right moment that market meets our goals. He carefully adapted to our expectations and guided us through our search. I can't exaggerate about his negotiation skills. He is a man of tact. I witnessed how he settled with the seller throughout the process, from the approval for after-hour visits to the property to agreement for more favorable terms during the escrow. Since we were doing remote search (with occasional onsite visits), we put plenty of trust in his expertise and loyalty. We are satisfied with our investment. :)

We used Ali to both sell our previous home and to buy our new home. With selling of our home his service was impressionable as we sold our home within 21 days at 99% of asking price. During this process he was not only exceptionally knowledgeable but readily available and willing to work as hard as necessary to make our house sell. With buying of our home he found us a pocket listing that perfectly suited our needs! He represented us well and with Ali's help we were able to get the house even though it had several offers on the table. Highly recommend. Ali is a true pleasure to work with!
