MADISON, N.J.

The firm serves clients across Los Angeles County.<\/p>\n

Co-owners Susan Featherly, Peter Micalchuck and Barinder Chhina established their company in 2014. Featherly ran a dance studio before starting a real estate career in 2004. Micalchuck parlayed his success as a restaurateur into a second career selling and investing in real estate. Chhina, a biomedical engineer, is a former client of Featherly and Micalchuck and a real estate investor. All three have experience as real estate investors with an extensive network of home improvement and renovation specialists.<\/p>\n

Burbank is known as the \u201cmedia capital of the world\u201d and is home to many film, television and entertainment companies such as Walt Disney Studios, Warner Bros. Studios and Nickelodeon Animation Studios. A majority of the firm\u2019s clientele is in the film and music industry. Located near the Verdugo mountains, Burbank is just 12 miles north of downtown Los Angeles and 25 miles from the beach, providing easy access to many outdoor and cultural pursuits.<\/p>\n

\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The firm\u2019s leadership will expand the business by attracting new agents and investing in specialized support staff to help increase agent efficiency and productivity.<\/p>\n
