Hi! I’m Andrew Tyree — realtor, homeowner, and Highlander Park dad.
I specialize in first-time buyers and step-up buyers looking to move from their first home into a more spacious home. My specialty is transforming the act of buying or selling real estate from the overwhelming drag that it could – in other hands – be, into a genuinely enjoyable quest for your future self. Whether you’re working with a budget of 500K to upwards of 2 or 3 million, I’m with you every terrazzo step of the way.

Friends of mine who are avid cyclists absolutely LOVED the idea of living in up and coming Frogtown with the close access to the bike paths, breweries, restaurants and proximity to the entire city. We chatted a few times about them getting a house there but settled on the idea of purchasing an income property to offset some of the cost, as this would have been their second home.

Sam and Rich wanted to purchase their first home with a “first time buyer’s budget”. We were looking at single family homes in El Sereno and City Terrace. With this offer, we had visited multiple times and chatted with the agent a lot. We were able to beat out multiple offers, giving them a great first home that checked all of their boxes.

James and Maria wanted to purchase their first home with a “first time buyer’s budget”. We were looking at condos in Glendale for about the same price but they really wanted some outdoor space for their daughter who was about to turn 1. I offered to search a bit east of downtown and we found this gem of a house on the hill overlooking downtown. It fell out of escrow and I had kept up with the agents and snuck in a backup offer and got it!

We were able to find an AMAZING condo in Studio City. The photos on the MLS were terrible. The condo needed a lot of work but we were able to get an amazing place for an amazing price that is worth about $250k more that what they bought it for. Cherry on top is that the rent while they’re away covers the entire year worth of mortgage each year!

They were a referral who were working with an agent who wasn’t really helping them. Brooke was 5 months pregnant with an 18 month old toddler. They were on a timeline, for sure! I hit the ground running, we went to a ton of houses in the 2 month period we were searching and after beating out 26 other offers, we were able to move them in about a month before their new baby boy was born! Phew!
