Los Angeles real estate expert Jessie Gortikov is a dynamic dealmaker with a keen eye for opportunity. She's highly skilled and knowledgeable, and as a devoted people person, she truly thrives on helping her clients. Jessie is driven to help people find the home or investment of their dreams, to understand every facet of the transaction, and to guide them through what might be a stressful process with her confident, capable approach. Her personality and endearment make a stressful situation become an enjoyable one. Inspired by her father and brother who are in the commercial real estate world, a career in the field was always in the cards for Jessie.

As a native Angeleno, Jessie has an encyclopedic understanding of the city's many enclaves, from the Valley to the Westside. She's an expert in residential buying and selling, and a sought-after resource for investors of large-scale acquisitions, dispositions and leasing projects. A longtime Santa Monica resident, Jessie loves living near the beach and great local shops and eateries. She is passionate about her involvement with Westside German Shepherd Rescue, assisting with off-site adoption events, and advocating for animal adoption. She can often be found along the boardwalk or Palisades Park with her beloved dogs, Hank and Bean, working out at Orangetheory Santa Monica, or trying out new Los Angeles hikes with her friends.
