Our Approach to Real Estate is Simple
Give your clients the kind of service you would expect to receive yourself. Since Kelly & Laura have very high standards, you will receive only the best service available. Working out of the beautiful Malaga Cove office in Palos Verdes Estates, Realtors, Kelly Evans & Laura Medina, have made a name for themselves throughout the South Bay by providing concierge-level real estate services to people who want to buy or sell a home on the Palos Verdes Peninsula and/or the coastal cities of the Hollywood Riviera, Torrance, Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, and Hermosa Beach. By providing a more engaging and reliable consumer experience, they are able to guide you through what can be a stressful transaction with experienced ease.
You’ll see these two sisters around town regularly helping their clients prepare their homes for sale or sharing the highlights of the South Bay lifestyle with new buyers in the area.
Kelly & Laura have been real estate agents here in the South Bay since 2000, thus have much insight to share about local schools, activities, restaurants & shopping, not to mention their many resources for remodeling, etc.
They completely understand the power of staging in creating a lifestyle that impacts the sale of property for both buyers & sellers in today’s market. They love working with both buyers and sellers to help them best understand the investment a home purchase provides and how to best sell it when it’s time to recoup as much equity as possible.
Although they sell homes all over the South Bay & Beach Cities – Torrance, Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, Gardena & Lomita—Kelly & Laura specialize in the Hollywood Riviera, an idyllic neighborhood, in which they both live, that is bounded by Torrance Beach, Redondo Beach & Palos Verdes Estates. This quaint area has approximately 3100 single-family homes plus some townhouses and condos, many of which have amazing ocean, city lights, and mountain views. Most were built in the 1950s, but the neighborhood got its start back in the 1920s. There are still a handful of the original 1920s Spanish colonial homes in the area that bring a sense of history and charm to our neighborhood. Many of the original 50’s homes have been updated or completely rebuilt which makes the neighborhood far from ‘cookie-cutter.’ The area attracts people from all over the South Bay, most of whom never leave once they find a home here.
Kelly & Laura love sharing their real estate expertise with first-time home buyers, repeat buyers & sellers, as well as people relocating to the South Bay. They strive to customize their proven systems with each and every buyer & seller. Give them a call today to discuss your real estate needs!

Kelly & Laura are sisters and business partners. We have been working together since 1996. 1996–1999, we opened our own paint-your-own-pottery studios, “Come Out & Clay” in Norwalk, CT and Mamaroneck, NY. They were two of the top-producing pottery studios in their day, according to our suppliers. We sold those and moved back to ‘ever-sunny’ Redondo Beach, California—where we both had lived since high school days. (We are both “Spartans” South High graduates.) Prior to that, we grew up as young children on the “Main Line” of Philadelphia.
Laura attended UCSB and earned a degree in Business Economics while Kelly attended San Diego State earning a Speech Communication degree and then attended the Design Institute of San Diego earning an Interior Design Degree.
Kelly is married and has 2 girls (18) and (14). Laura has 2 boys—(22) and (16). We both live, work, and play in the Hollywood Riviera. Our kids attend the local schools. We love it here! We both feel so lucky to wake up here every day. It really is a wonderful community!
We both started our real estate careers in 2000. Working first as Coldwell Banker agents in the Malaga Cove office, which is in Palos Verdes Estates. We were named “Rookies of the Year” our first year in business. We work well with each other and love real estate!! We both have different strengths and offer each other lots of moral support—which is important to our clients as well. Everyone needs moral support when they are working through a real estate transaction—whether as a buyer or seller! In 2003, we moved to Re/Max Estate Properties in Palos Verdes and we have really enjoyed our fruitful years there. We were honored to be in the Platinum Club each year there and even more honored to join the elite Chairman’s Circle for the year 2007/2012 & Hall of Fame in 2008. We are both very hardworking, but really enjoy what we do and think it shows. We laugh a lot and most people find that very contagious…another good thing when working through a real estate transaction—a good sense of humor!!
