Two people on every deal
I read every offer and contract before it goes out, and Slava is with you every day: the search, the showings, the offer and the negotiating. Both of us cost you one commission.
The Tandem
Joe Goodman and Slava Ploshkin. We work every deal together.
Slava is with you from the first call to the keys, and I read every offer and contract with him.

How we work.
The Tandem
“No agency matched us. A street in Long Beach did.”
Straight answers on the tour
If something's wrong with the house or the price, we tell you on the tour, before you sign anything.
Our own search, updated daily
Slava built Explore, the live MLS map we both work from. You see every listing and the numbers behind it, the same screen we look at, and we call when a home is worth the call.
Who you'll work with. Me and Slava.

Who does what. And what we do together.
Slava: with you every day
The search or the sale, the showings, the offer, the negotiation and every deadline in escrow, in English or Russian.
Joe: every offer and contract
I read every offer and contract with Slava, look for the traps and negotiate to protect your number. Hayden & Bach, my brokerage, stands behind every deal.
Both of us: one phone call
Call either of us. We share every update, so you never repeat yourself, and nothing gets signed until we've both read it.
Two websites, and what each one is for.
Use whichever site is handier. Either one reaches both of us.
What our clients wrote.
“Joe is an amazing realtor. His combination of spot-on intuition and knowledge of market trends, both current and historical, are one of a kind. Not to mention perfect negotiation skills. Plus, he loves what he does! I would work with Joe again in a heartbeat.”
“Joe is an extremely knowledgeable real estate professional. I have used him for for both the sale and purchase of 3 different properties. … He uses his unique skills to not only get you the best price but most importantly close the deal on time.”
“Great experience working with Slava and Joe. They were knowledgeable, responsive and really worked well together. You can tell they care about their clients and make the process a lot less stressful. Would absolutely work with them again.”
Questions about the two of us.
Slava is with you day to day, and I read every offer and contract with him, so every page you sign gets a broker's second read.
No. You pay one commission, the same as with one agent.
Either of us. Me at (818) 400-4501, Slava at (424) 400-9003. We keep each other up to date, so whoever answers knows where your deal stands.
I walked past a sidewalk café in Long Beach and saw a young guy with a coffee and a real estate book. That was Slava, a few weeks after he'd moved here. I stopped to talk, and we've worked together ever since. No agency put us together.
Slava's brand and website, theslavahouse.com. It's where our team's live home search, Explore, and the neighborhood guides live. Hayden & Bach is the brokerage we both work under.
Yes. Slava works with clients in Russian and English, and every document gets explained plainly in either language.
