Experience, Expertise, and a Fierce Independence Westside Estate Agency
Founded by renowned real estate agents Stephen Shapiro and Kurt Rappaport in 1999, WEA was built on a shared vision: to offer a more personalized, client-first approach to real estate. Driven by intelligence, integrity, and independence, the firm remains committed to delivering exceptional service tailored to the unique needs of each client.
Just as every home and every client is unique, so is every agent-advisor. We hand-select our real estate agent-advisors from the worlds of business, academia, entertainment, and, of course, real estate. They are high achievers from diverse fields and experts in the details and subtleties that define multi-million-dollar negotiations. Our agent-advisors possess a passion for fine architecture and intimate property-by-property knowledge of their local areas. They innately understand the finer points of caring for clients with high net worth and even higher expectations. We match our agent-advisors with our clients through a precise understanding of both, knowing which agent-advisor will inherently meet a client’s needs and goals.

WEA Clients
At Westside Estate Agency, we believe that every home is unique. We also recognize that every buyer and seller is equally unparalleled and highly distinct, and it is with this mindset that we approach working with our clients. Our agent-advisors do not simply list the homes we represent. They get to know each home intimately, from its one-of-a-kind features to its finest details. We combine this knowledge with an inherent understanding of our clients, their goals, needs, tastes, and interests to ensure a precise, well-curated sampling of prospective homes—avoiding anything we don’t think will fit.
