Specializing in luxury real estate across Beverly Hills, Hollywood Hills, and West Hollywood, William Cerqueira brings nearly a decade of real estate experience and his reputation for enthusiasm and tenacity to The Agency.
William joins The Agency team after several standout years at Keller Williams Realty — Hollywood Hills, where he quickly established himself as a dedicated and knowledgeable advocate for his clients. Priding himself on his commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for his clients, William finds few things more rewarding than making that special phone call to let a client know escrow has officially closed.
Beginning his real estate career at the height of the 2008 housing market crash, William quickly learned the importance of hard work and perseverance, setting himself apart from other agents with his resourcefulness and out-of-the-box thinking. Originally from Brazil, he earned his bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, learning vital skills that would eventually distinguish him as a tech-savvy agent in today’s increasingly competitive real estate market. Having spent several years living in New York City, and elsewhere across the globe, William is comfortable working alongside individuals from all walks of life and takes a warm and gracious approach to all whom he encounters.
Fluent in Portuguese and conversant in Spanish, when William’s not serving his clients in real estate, he enjoys spending time with his wife and son, dining out, playing ping pong, snorkeling off the coast of California, and devouring as many gripping documentaries about world issues as he can.
"I had to find a new house to rent for my boss in very short period, and I had no idea how I could find the one he likes.. But I found William, who is fast, responsible, kind, and literally 24/7 working for his clients. He gave us tons of lists and made appointments for viewing very quickly every time we want. After we found a wonderful, great deal house, William kept helping us finish all the documents that we needed to do for an agreement. I had to do as soon as possible since my boss wanted to move in right away, but William made this so much easier. He even picked up calls during christmas holidays. That happens very rarely. I strongly recommend William :)"

I have had the pleasure of working with William multiple times for both renting an income property and also for purchasing a new home. William is a reliable, responsive, hard working, quality individual who takes pride in his job. He knows the real estate process and guides his clients in a calm & and effective manner. I am happy to have William on my team which is why I continue to call him for all of my real estate related needs. I would highly recommend him!

"William had exactly the right temperament to guide me through that process. During the listing, including after I moved out of state, William was very responsive to my texts and to inquiries about the property. His screening of people and background checks saved me a huge hassle. And, the lease form he used and document management procedure made everything a breeze. The tenant who rented the house wanted to close the deal the day after seeing it and I was so surprised we were able to get through the lease process in less than two days. Bottom line is I will be calling William when my tenant's lease expires!"

"William is fast, efficient, friendly, and gets the deal done. I went through him to lease a home in West Hollywood and won't consider using any realtor but him when I decide to buy. He makes you feel like you're his most important client even though he services a ton of VIPs in the Beverly Hills, Hollywood Hills, and West Hollywood areas. He even left me a bottle of primo champagne when I picked up the keys!?"

"Thank you William for a great job guiding us through the process from searching for the property to closing on one. We would highly recommend working with William to our friends and we would love to work with him again."

"I hope I don't have any vacancies again anytime soon, but if I do, I'll call William in a heartbeat and not waste precious time. He is pleasant to work with, hard working and very knowledgable. I highly recommend William for leasing and would certainly contact him in the future to help buy or sell a property."

"William is an incredible agent. I purchased a home through him and he was available to me 24/7, always sending me listings including "pocket listings" that not everyone knew about. He is kind and energetic, and a consummate professional. You are in good hands when you work with William."
