Twenty-four years ago, in the market town of Aylesbury, England, Christopher Rogers began working on one of the top-producing real estate teams in the area. In 2005, Chris moved to the United States and went to work earning his domestic license, learning the ins-and-outs of the American market. In short order, he launched his stateside career serving Los Angeles’ beach cities and quickly excelled in his new environment. Ten years after his American debut, Chris now serves the Los Angeles Westside and has executed over 700 transactions, amassing critical experience along the way. Over the course of his lengthy industry tenure, he has maintained a sterling reputation for delivering attuned, client-centric care to those he serves.

Today, Chris extends his expertise to Westchester, Santa Monica, Venice, Mar Vista, and even as far afield as North Hollywood and Lake Balboa in the valley and Dana Point in Orange County. He has joined forces with Jeff Pantanella at independent real estate firm Pantanella & Partners, with delineated systems in place for his vendors—be it a photographer, stager, or other necessary professionals to assist clients through each transactional phase. With over 80% of his business generated by repeat and referral clientele, Chris keeps business consistent by establishing trust early on and taking a big-picture view of his clients’ goals. From the outset, he takes the time to get to know his clients and their long-term vision. Because of his experience and demonstrable follow-through, his clients are confident in Chris’s ability to deliver every penny possible for their property. Likewise, Chris is mindful in his communication, reviewing all the relevant details with his clients’ to best prepare them for the sale process. To further ease the inherent anxiety of the buying or selling process, Chris remains accessible at all times for his clients’ benefit, no matter the time of day. In representing buyers, he instills a sense of security in clients by referring experienced, reliable lenders who can close a deal on time. In today’s competitive market, this efficiency and competency provides a desirable edge and added value. “It’s not about carrying a massive array of transactions,” Chris explains, “People know I care, and I deliver on my word.”

As for marketing his listings, Chris recognizes that in this day and age, curating striking online photography is of the utmost importance. Accordingly, he pays for staging when a property would benefit, and helps clients declutter and prep homes for sale. Once a professional photographer documents the home, listings are syndicated to all major listing websites and promoted across social media. As for staying in touch with past clients, Chris reaches out over social media and makes personal calls to see how former clients are faring. All in all, those that work with him remember Chris for the confidence and sense of loyalty they were left with at the closing table. Reflecting on his favorite aspect of his work, Chris says: “I love the feeling of getting an offer accepted. After experiencing clients’ fears and being able to remind them of the bigger picture, it’s a great feeling to help someone build a financial future just by living in a home.”

Outside of the office, Chris is active in his community through volunteer work and by serving as the Vice President of his Home Owners Association for the last three years. He also enjoys playing on his local soccer team on the Westside, which he participates in three times a week and serving as assistant organizer of the West L.A. Soccer Meetup Group. Above all, Chris relishes time spent with his son—one of their favorite pastimes being playing the piano. When he finds the time and opportunity, he likes to DJ, with his biggest gig being at the Windsor Castle for the Queen at her 50^th Anniversary Jubilee. As an adoptive Angelino, he loves to go to shows at the Hollywood Bowl, Greek Theatre, and the Disney Concert Hall. He and his wife—a Trojan alumna—also enjoy attending football games and the annual Festival of Books at USC.

With an eye toward the future, Chris plans to further grow his business, while maintaining the same superlative service he’s built a prosperous career upon. Within the next few years, he hopes to develop a portfolio of his own of homes bought, renovated, and sold. Now, with more than two decades of diverse, hard-won experience and an innate instinct for his clients’ successes in the Southern California market, the best is assuredly still to come for Christopher Rogers
