About Harry
Twenty six years, more than 700 transactions, and a habit of answering the phone
Harry Shahbaz is a real estate consultant with Keller Williams VIP Properties in Porter Ranch, serving buyers, sellers and investors across the San Fernando Valley.
The short version
Market insight and financial guidance, from someone who has done both jobs
Having over twenty five years of experience in the real estate business, Harry has provided market insight and financial guidance that helps clients make informed real estate decisions. His knowledge in finance and real estate is what built the business relationships he has with clients and partners.
That combination matters more than it sounds. A property decision is really a financing decision wearing a different hat. Knowing how a loan will be underwritten, what an appraisal is likely to do, and which buyers can actually close changes how a home should be priced, marketed and negotiated.
Most of Harry's business comes from referrals. That is deliberate. It means the work has to be good enough that people put their own name behind it.

How Harry works
Why clients stay and refer
He understands both sides of the transaction
A financing background lets Harry help clients understand loan options and qualification, the two things that quietly decide most real estate outcomes. When a deal gets complicated, that is usually where it gets complicated.
Strategic marketing, not just putting a sign in the yard
Every property gets a customized marketing strategy designed to attract qualified buyers, generate real interest and position the home properly. A listing that is priced and presented correctly in the first two weeks does not need a price reduction in the sixth.
The goal is not simply to get an offer
It is to help you understand your options as a seller and negotiate terms that protect your interests. Price is one line in a contract. Contingencies, timelines, credits and who carries the risk are the rest of it.
You deserve a Realtor who follows through
Someone who answers your questions, communicates regularly and does what he said he would do. Decades of real-world experience helping clients navigate buying, selling, negotiating and financing is what makes that possible.

In their own words
Unedited reviews left on Google by clients Harry has represented.
“Harry did an excellent job of helping me through my first experience of buying a home. From start to finish, he was almost readily available to answer any questions I had and consistently went out of his way to make sure I felt very comfortable. As most know, purchasing a home is a very difficult and stressful process, but Harry helped to soothe any anxiety I had along the way. Would definitely recommend Harry and his team!”
“I highly recommend working with Harry!! He was truly exceptional! I met him at an Open House in the city of Northridge. I was a lil hesitant as I was just “browsing” but after a detailed conversation, so much knowledge and patience on his part, we went from “browsing” to soon to be home owners!!! After speaking with his lender we wasted no time and Harry focused on the importance of my choice in school district. Not only did we find a house, we found the home we will be creating memories in for the years to come!”
“Harry was AMAZING to work with! When no other local lenders would work with me, Harry took the time to listen to me, hear my story, and was willing to work with me in purchasing a property in another State. He was creative and supremely knowledgeable in his field. There was never a time that I didn't feel that Harry had my best interest at heart. His calm demeanor helped keep me focused on the task at hand. Harry helped me purchase the property of my dreams and I would work with him over and over again.”
“Harry was very professional and highly knowledgeable. He was extremely helpful. I highly recommend him!”
