About Susan Stone

She has been awarded Coldwell Banker International President's Elite level of achievement. This acknowledgment represents sales achievements in the Top 2% of Coldwell Banker Sales Professionals. She has also been named Reader Recommended “Best of Pasadena” REALTOR® in the past.

 

Susan began a career in fashion sales and clothing manufacturing. She worked at department stores such as Robinson’s, Bullock’s, and Nordstrom. She proved to be a successful salesperson and rose to manage the designer fashion department and then on to becoming a buyer at Nordstrom. With those connections Susan then began sales for manufacturers, selling wholesale clothing to all department stores across the country, rising to the position of National Sales Manager.

 

Success in the fashion industry also means a significant amount of travel, which is glamorous for a single person. It eventually proved to be difficult to leave her husband and puppy-dogs every other week, so she decided to apply her design eye, negotiating, and sales skills to the real estate industry where she has thrived.

 

Susan was announced the winner of Coldwell Banker's Outstanding Achievement Award, President’s Elite, and President’s Circle. She is also recognized by Coldwell Banker as one of the Top Sales Associates nationwide. This experience proves extremely valuable to buyers and sellers because she knows how to take a contract to a completed sale.

 

In Southern California, Susan’s focus is generally San Gabriel Valley, specifically the neighborhood of Chapman Woods, and branching out farther to Pasadena, Altadena, and Arcadia areas. With that said, she has concluded deals throughout the city of Los Angeles, including West LA and “the valley,” Culver City, Glendale, Manhattan Beach, and more. However, she also has experience with real estate deals in Orange, Kern, Ventura, and Riverside counties. For example, she has listed property in Tehachapi, Bakersfield, and even farther afield. She specializes in residential sales, bankruptcy properties, income and commercial property, probate, trust sales, and REOs (Bank Owned Properties). She is also certified for leasing and property management.
