Meet the Team
Lawrence Whalen
With a strong background and deep roots in the Malibu community, I bring over 25 years of experience living in this beautiful coastal paradise. Originally hailing from England, I have embraced the Malibu lifestyle and its vibrant culture, making it my home.
My family has been entrenched in the real estate and development industry for over 40 years, providing me with invaluable insights and knowledge about the market. This familial legacy has fueled my passion for real estate and inspired me to help others find their dream homes in Malibu. I pursued my education at university in San Francisco, where I developed a strong foundation in business and real estate principles. Today, I manage several properties throughout Malibu, ensuring that each home is cared for and that tenants enjoy a seamless living experience.
When I'm not assisting clients or managing properties, you can find me enjoying the beach, playing soccer, or hitting the local gym. I believe in maintaining a balanced lifestyle and staying active in the community. Whether you are looking to buy, sell, invest or rent in Malibu, I am dedicated to providing personalized service and expert guidance to help you navigate the real estate market. Let's work together to make your Malibu dreams a reality!
