AboutRuben

Ruben Perez

Ruben Perez joined Compass after dedicating several years to selling high-end properties in Los Angeles, New York City and Paris. His global real estate experience has allowed him to build an extensive network of clients from Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. Over the last 20 years of worldwide real estate sales experience, Ruben has produced over $300 million in transactions.

Originally from Venezuela with Colombian roots, Ruben’s upbringing provided him with a broad and cultured worldview. He is fluent in both French and Spanish, making him a seasoned advocate for the goals and concerns of a vast range of clients. Honesty and discretion are two of Ruben’s values that are fundamental to his approach to real estate. Specializing in hillside residential real estate in the Hollywood Hills, Laurel Canyon and Beverly Crest communities of Los Angeles, Ruben leverages over 17 years of practical experience. This combined with his comprehensive market expertise, negotiation skills, marketing knowledge, and unwavering dedication to his clients has contributed to his sustained, successful career thoughtfully representing luxury real estate buyers and sellers.

While listing and selling properties is commonplace among agents, having vast knowledge and understanding of the Regulations and Design Guidelines of a particularly complicated landscape becomes critical in securing sales. Ruben has the right partners to research, report, and recommend on matters affecting planning and zoning. His insight and experience navigating the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety as well as the Mulholland Scenic Parkway Specific Plan for properties within the Inner and Outer Corridor gives Ruben an innate ability to achieve even the loftiest of design goals.

We are now the country's largest independent real estate company. Compass built the first modern real estate platform, pairing the industry’s top talent with technology to make the search and sell experience intelligent and seamless.

Compass takes a tech-driven, personalized approach, combining a collaborative agent community, in-house creative agency, and the industry’s most tenured leadership team.

“Mr. Ruben Perez was my agent as a first-time home buyer in Los Angeles. He was attentive and thorough in correctly completing all the involved paperwork (which would have been quite confusing without his utmost care in patiently explaining every single process and correspondence). He was diligent and hardworking, and went out of his way to make the process run smoothly and intercepted all possible hassles with the utmost professionalism. I highly recommend him to whomever wants to have property represented.”
