License #: 02003691 Relentlessly passionate about real estate, market education and her clients’ satisfaction, Katrina Palandri brings knowledge, experience and a track record of success to The Agency.
With 15 years in finance and extensive experience personally buying, renovating and selling homes in Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles, Diamond Bar and Phoenix, Katrina has the vision and knowledge to help her clients sell their homes quickly and at the best possible price. Specializing in East Hollywood, West Hollywood and beyond, Katrina is known for her optimism, persistence and unwavering commitment to her clients. Her explicit knowledge of the building, designing and marketing processes ensures her clients have a true competitive advantage and are always abreast of the latest market trends. Having researched thousands of homes and put in hundreds of offers, in addition to completing countless closings and inspections, she serves as a trusted guide throughout every step of the transaction process.
Prior to her career in real estate, Katrina spent several years in luxury sales, where she was the top salesperson and first female sales manager of a 30-year-old company. Katrina sought out her real estate license after actively investing in real estate herself. Dismayed at the struggle she experienced in finding an effective real estate agent to represent her interests, she began working for a developer and later as a buyer’s agent under a service-oriented broker before joining The Agency. Her experience advocating on behalf of buyers across L.A. has proven invaluable when listing a client’s home for sale, as she knows exactly what buyers are searching for in today’s competitive market.
Outside of real estate, Katrina enjoys spending time with her husband and four-year-old daughter, exploring new places in the city, traveling, reading, practicing yoga, meditation and pilates and studying interior design and architecture. She supports Foster More and Habitat for Humanity.
"I worked directly with Katrina of the Gina Michelle Project. Being a first time home buyer there was a lot I did not know. Katrina, was with me every step of this process, and while it would take several months for me to find the place that was right for me, never once did Katrina make me feel rushed, or try to "push" a property on me. There are so many impressive things about Katrina, her knowledge, direction, common sense, response time, sense of humor (don't underestimate the need for this when trying to purchase a home) good handle on repair costs, assertiveness; the list could go on and on. I had an opportunity to work with Marcia who was very helpful, and Gina who was on top of the closing (in Katrina's absence) when things hit a snag; responded quickly and became an assertive advocate for me....it ended well for us. This team also walked me through every step of the closing which made it very easy for me the buyer! This is a team you should work with for your home selling and buying needs"

"Professional, efficient, knowledgeable and simply a pleasure to work with. Katrina was extremely patient and displayed a laid back, no-pressure approach to navigating the property search (which was exactly what we hoped for and needed in a Agent). However, when its time for business, such as negotiations, documentation and all that entails getting to closing, Katrina flips the switch and goes into Terminator Mode and makes things happen! We will definitely call Katrina again for all of our future Real Estate needs, and will most definitely recommend her services to our friends, and family!"
