Josephine Balzano is a true born and raised Southern Californian. She was born in Inglewood in 1974 to immigrant parents. She grew up in Harbor City and went to school at Le Lycee Francais de Los Angeles in Redondo Beach.
Josephine attended Cal State Long Beach and graduated with a B.S. in Business, Finance, and Real Estate. Her family still lives in Los Angeles, Los Feliz, Torrance, Hawthorne, Redondo Beach, Rancho Palos Verdes, and Palos Verdes Estates. Josephine continues to live in the South Bay with her husband and three children. Other languages she speaks are Spanish, French, and Arabic.
Josephine bought her first investment property in Hawthorne when she was 18 years old. For the past 30 years, she has been buying homes, fixing them up, and selling them for profit. For the past 15 years, she has been representing buyers and sellers in the South Bay and helping them do the same. She brings all of that knowledge to you when you are looking to buy or sell your home in Southern California.
Leasing a home in Southern California is not as easy as one might think. Even harder is connecting with a qualified, patient, and positive minded real estate expert. If you want to lose your mind - try doing it yourself. Better yet, work with the wrong person in the real estate industry and see where it lands you. I can tell you from personal experience - you will wind up in the wrong place and you will be miserable.
If you want a 5 star experience from soup to nuts and get exactly what you want there is no choice - hands down! Josephine Balzano is your professional. I cannot say enough about this person. She was thorough, professional, perso...

Josephine was the third agent we used to try and buy a house in Palos Verdes, but the first who understood what we were trying to accomplish. She listened to our likes and dislikes and was able to show us a lot of options. Finally, we found a house that worked for us and Josie advised us on pricing and negotiated a fantastic deal. We just closed and couldn't be happier! We spent over 3 years looking for a house with other agents, but with Josie, it took just 3 months!

Josephine Balzano is the most excellent Realtor® with whom I have ever had the experience of working. I have worked closely with two other Realtors® both for buying and selling homes and my experience with Josephine topped both of my experiences with other Realtors® completely. She is knowledgeable about real estate and the process and paperwork that involves buying a home. She immediately responded to all of my texts, emails, and phone calls with a clear answer and if she needed to speak to someone else to find out the answer, she contacted the other person immediately. She knew many experts in the field and sent me top-notch people, such as outsta...

I can't say enough good things about my experience working with Josie. Besides the market knowledge, personal integrity, sales expertise, and professional skills one expects from an agent, Josie also brought a very personal level of caring, compassion, and understanding of the stress of selling one’s home. She went above and beyond in every way to provide the best possible outcome geared to my personal needs. She had my back at every possible turn and for that, I’ll be forever grateful. Thank you so much, Josie!

Josephine has been so helpful in helping me find my first home. After renting for so long, I finally decided it was time to find something of my own. She has been so knowledgeable about reasonable expectations, market comparisons, and neighborhoods, and answered all my questions and concerns. Josephine is very responsive and makes you feel like she genuinely cares about helping you find the home you always wanted. I highly recommend using her services. You won't be disappointed.

We had great help from Jo, she knew everything we didn't know. She has been very helpful. My brother and I had no experience in selling a home. Our Dad passed and we were responsible to sell, quickly as we could. It was sold pretty fast and surprised us. If I had to sell my home, I would surely use Jo and I will tell my friends and family how well she does. She knows her business. Thanks again, Jo!

Jose was a great agent. She was extremely helpful in negotiating with us through a multiple offer listing to make sure we got the home we wanted. She was great about texting us back, explaining all the forms and details, and making sure we were her number one priority. I highly recommend her if you are looking for an agent who will get things done for you!
