San Fernando Valley · California

I represent sellers. Only sellers. Across the San Fernando Valley.

No buyer agency, ever. No divided loyalty. No dual agency. Not a pitch. A bookmark for when you’re ready.


Why I built this

A note from Connor.

I got started in real estate in 1998. Selling a house was incredibly stressful. And at the time, it seemed like there was no way around the way commission structures worked.

Then I watched how the industry started to change. And I thought: why not build a practice around undivided loyalty? So I did. I built the Seller's Only Agent architecture, and I offer it to you across the San Fernando Valley. A place I came to know not because I live here, but because I worked these streets for years with LAPD.

You might not be interested in real estate right now. Typically nobody really cares about it until it’s time to move or do something. I want to be the point of contact when you’re ready. And when you are, please reach out. Just save my information.

When the time comes, I’ll represent you and only you. Whether your house is $800,000 or $3 million. Doesn’t matter. I believe being a Sellers Only Agent is really the way to do things.

That’s who I am. I’m Connor with Honor. And I promise to serve you with Honor.

The Concept

Sellers Only. The model SFV homeowners understand instantly.

01

Built for sellers, only.

Every other Realtor splits time between listing and buyer-side work. I built a practice that does one thing, represent sellers, and never the other side.

02

No dual agency, ever.

I never represent the buyer on your sale. My fiduciary duty runs one direction, toward you, on every listing, every time.

03

Memorable. Defensible. Repeatable.

You will tell people what I do in one sentence. They will remember it. That alone gives your listing reach that a percentage-based generalist can’t match.

The Sellers-Only way

One client on every listing: you.

No buyer representation on your transaction, ever. No divided attention, no internal conflict of interest, no split loyalty. After the 2024 NAR settlement, the old assumptions about listing representation aren’t a given anymore. This is the model I built instead.

Why Sellers Win Here

Four ways a Sellers-Only model serves you better.

A

Undivided loyalty.

My fiduciary duty runs in one direction. Toward you. No buyer of mine ever sits across the table from you on your own sale.

B

Confidentiality, intact.

Anything you tell me about your motivation, your floor, your timeline, your situation stays inside our team. No leaks across an internal split.

C

Negotiation strength.

When the buyer’s agent calls, they know there’s no chance of dual representation. The conversation moves to terms faster and stays cleaner.

D

Brand clarity.

You tell a friend “he’s the Sellers Only Agent in the Valley.” They get it in seven words. That referral conversation is the cheapest marketing on earth. I built the model so it works.

Dual Agency vs. Sellers Only

Why the legacy model fails SFV sellers.

Dual agency, where the same brokerage represents both sides, is banned outright in 8 U.S. states and most of the world. Here’s the contrast.

The divided model

  • Same brokerage represents buyer and seller
  • Fiduciary duty diluted in both directions
  • Negotiation flattened to “keep the deal together”
  • Information you shared can move to the other side via internal channels
  • Commission incentives push toward closing the easiest deal, not the highest net

The Sellers Only model

  • One client: you
  • Full fiduciary duty to the seller, undiluted
  • Negotiation pushed all the way to the maximum the market will pay
  • Your confidential information stays on your side, always
  • No buyer client waiting in the wings to conflict with your interests

The Listing System

What happens on every San Fernando Valley listing.

A repeatable five-phase system. Every listing gets all of it.

Phase 1
Pre-list

Comp report, pricing strategy, prep recommendations

Block-level comp pull, net-to-you math, and prioritized prep recommendations before we list. No surprises on day one.

Phase 2
Launch

Photography, MLS, syndication, neighborhood blast

Professional photo + video package, full MLS entry, syndication to every major portal, dedicated single-property page, neighbor letter campaign.

Phase 3
Live market

Showings, open houses, weekly performance review

Coordinated showings, hosted open houses, weekly written report on traffic + feedback + pricing signal. You always know where you stand.

Phase 4
Offer + escrow

Offer review, counter strategy, escrow coordination

Side-by-side offer comparison with net-to-you math. Counter strategy aligned to your priorities. Escrow shepherded to close.

Phase 5
Forever

Post-close support & lifetime referral

I stay in your corner after closing. Tax docs, vendor referrals, market updates, the next move when it comes.

Counter-Pitch

What other agents will say about me. And the truth.

What they will say

“He turns away buyer commissions. That’s money left on the table.”

The truth: Referring every buyer out costs me real income on every listing. I do it anyway because it’s the only way my fiduciary duty to you stays undivided. My reputation is what brings the next seller, not a side commission on this one.

What they will say

“If something goes sideways in escrow, you want a full-service agent.”

The truth: 28 years of California real estate, including REO listings for Citigroup and short-sale work through the 2008-2012 crash. There are very few escrow scenarios I haven’t already seen and resolved.

What they will say

“Sellers Only means he can’t bring you a buyer.”

The truth: Buyers find your listing through MLS, syndication, signage, open houses, and the buyer’s own agent. None of that requires me to also represent the buyer. The model removes a conflict; it doesn’t remove an audience.

What they will say

“A sellers-only agent has a smaller network than a full-service team.”

The truth: Every buyer who calls about your listing gets referred to a dedicated buyer’s agent, so the relationship doesn’t die, it moves to someone whose only job is representing that buyer well. You still get full exposure. I just don’t sit on both sides of the table.

Common Questions

What SFV homeowners ask first.

What does “Sellers Only” actually mean?

I never represent buyers. When the buyer’s agent calls about your listing, they bring their own buyer, and my fiduciary duty is to you alone. Every brokerage involved is one-sided. No internal information leak, no “keep the deal together” pressure compromising your net.

What if a buyer reaches out without an agent? Can you represent them?

No. I refer unrepresented buyers to a buyer-only agent who can serve them properly. This protects my fiduciary duty to you and keeps the brand promise intact.

Is the Sellers Only model legal in California?

Yes. California permits dual agency with disclosure, but it does not require it. The Sellers Only model is a stricter, clearer choice within California law. It aligns with the direction the 2024 NAR settlement has been pushing the industry overall.

What does it cost to list with you?

The listing fee is standard and negotiable, and I go through it with you directly on a short call. What I can tell you up front is the model: sellers-only representation, full commission, full effort. Call (818) 536-7259 and I’ll walk you through it.

What if my home is in Sylmar specifically?

There’s a Sylmar-specific page at sfvsellersonlyagent.com/sylmar with current CRMLS market data for 91342: median sale price, days on market, sub-type mix. Every other SFV city gets its own page as the campaign rolls out.

Do you handle Spanish-speaking sellers?

I have someone on the team who handles Spanish-language inquiries. Reply in Spanish to any email, fill out the form in Spanish, or text in Spanish. We’ll handle it.

¿Prefieres español? Tenemos a alguien que puede ayudar. Responde en español y te contactaremos.

What if my home is underwater or in financial distress?

I led a short-sale team and was one of Citigroup’s REO listing agents during the 2008-2012 foreclosure cycle. If you’re facing a Notice of Default, short-sale scenario, or distressed-equity situation, I have direct experience with how lenders handle these and what your options actually look like. No judgement, no rush.

How do I get started without committing to anything?

Easiest path: fill out the analysis request form above. I’ll put together comps + net-to-you math for your specific home and email it back. No follow-up call unless you ask for one. If you decide later you want to talk, book the 17-minute call.
