Introducing The Advisory

Powerhouse agents and visionary leaders Nick Segal, Shaun Alan-Lee, and Jane Dorian proudly present The Advisory—a service-oriented team within Carolwood Estates, a boutique brokerage nestled in the heart of Beverly Hills. With over six decades of combined experience, The Advisory is a masterclass in transactional excellence and white-glove service, having closed over $1.5 billion in sales across Los Angeles and Santa Barbara. Nick Segal, a luminary in the realm of real estate, has earned the industry's most prestigious honors, including the coveted William Mar Garland Award. With a legacy of founding and leading two successful brokerages, Segal's unparalleled leadership ensures The Advisory sets the gold standard in luxury real estate.

"Before one can say they are of service, one needs to fully embrace its consciousness, in both mindset and in action towards that selfless action of service," said Segal. "Each member of The Advisory understands and is fully committed to this service consciousness because we know it works for both our clients and our team. Our clients consistently experience a greater peace of mind and a quiet confidence that all of their needs and concerns are being met with professional and strategic acumen forged by years of experience and positive results. And from that client satisfaction, with each successful closed transaction, so too are our needs met thereafter." 

The current real estate climate, shaped by the recent NAR ruling, demands a heightened level of professionalism and adept innovation. The Advisory is meeting this challenge head-on with its proprietary technology that offers interactive refinement functionality, precision valuations, and real-time "Heat Mapping" intelligence. These insights empower clients with objective data, ensuring that decisions are made with clarity and confidence rather than subjective opinion.

"Collaborating to create The Advisory with Nick Segal and Jane Dorian is not just a strategic move; it's a pledge to deliver unparalleled excellence," states Shaun Alan-Lee. "This partnership unites exceptional talent and a shared vision to revolutionize client experiences. We're not simply combining forces; we're establishing a new standard for elite real estate service. Together, we're poised to positively impact the market and deliver phenomenal results for our clientele."

Central to The Advisory's ethos is a commitment to offering refined client services beyond the four walls of a transaction. The team's exclusive offering, The Black Book Reserve, epitomizes their dedication to client care. This white-glove concierge service provides clients with access to a range of tailored solutions, from securing trusted house managers for extended absences and coordinating comprehensive packing and relocation services to on-demand, hired security. The Black Book Reserve goes beyond the traditional bounds of real estate, catering to The Advisory's discerning national and international clientele.

"There are no two other people that I respect more than Nick and Shaun. We are so aligned when it comes to core values and work ethic. It's truly a partnership made in heaven," adds Jane Dorian.

In its inaugural year, The Advisory was recognized on REAL TRENDS' "The Thousand List", ranking No. 6 in Beverly Hills and distinguishing itself among the nation's Top 1% producing teams.

 We are privileged that you would take the time to better understand our mission and commitment to you, and welcome the opportunity to be of service to you.
