My husband and I had a wonderful experience working with Cormac and Wailani O'Herlihy on a very difficult sale. They always kept their cool and professional viewpoint at trying times in our escrow. I would highly recommend using them for any of your Real Estate needs. Patricia Wisda
I recently had the pleasure of working alongside Wailani O’Herlihy as she worked with our clients in the purchase of a townhome, and I couldn’t have asked for a better advocate. Wailani was incredibly thorough, curating a targeted list of properties, patiently walking our clients through every showing, and making sure they understood the pros and cons of each home. When it came time to negotiate, she fought tirelessly on their behalf to secure the best possible price and terms. Most importantly, Wailani was there every step of the way, from initial search through closing, providing clear communication, expert guidance, and unwavering support. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top tier real estate advisor who truly puts her clients first.
If you want to find your dream home or vacation home, the O’Herlihys will take great care of you...This is a team that really cares. They take all of your desires in mind and find the perfect fit. I highly recommend them.
Cormac and Wailani O'Herlihy went above and beyond our expectations throughout the entire sale process. Their deep understanding of the Malibu market, combined with their experience, strategic approach, and dedication, made all the difference. From the initial stages to the final closing of escrow, their proactive communication and protection of our interests ensured we received top dollar for our home. We are incredibly grateful for their countless hours of hard work, from showing our home and answering our myriad questions to preparing offers and expertly guiding us through the escrow process. We couldn't have achieved such success without their unwavering support.
Very straightforward and professional. They always had our best interest in the purchase of our townhouse. Thanks again well done!
Wailani and her team were so incredibly responsive and helpful. THey went out of their way to make a typically stressful situation one that was very peaceful. Highly recommend!
I have had the pleasure of working with Cormac and Wailani for over 3 decades. Their relentless pursuit of excellence for their clients is truly amazing. Cormac is a genuine "DEAL MAKER". He has the focus, determination and tenacity to see thru the fog of complex transactions and guide his clients to success. It's always a pleasure to work with real professionals like Cormac and Wailani
Cormac and Wailani worked very hard to sell my house. They were always professional. I recommend them.
While making some inquiries regarding real estate in the Malibu area, I was in contact with Cormac O'Herlihy and it was very nice to be treated in such a thoroughly professional, friendly and empathetic manner. He and his business partner and wife, Wailani O'Herlihy, certainly know the area and surrounding neighborhoods, north, south and east. While I'm no longer pursuing a property in SoCal, I would highly recommend this couple for all your real estate needs.
Thee best experience. Dealing with two qualified friendly , knowledgeable and non pushy humans was as much fun as a home sale can be. I’d trust them totally
Cormac and Wailani O'Herlihy are very experienced, especially in Malibu, and were incredibly responsive throughout the process of both the sale of our house and purchase of the next one. We made the decision to move/sell/buy very quickly and they jumped into action. We're very thankful!
I have conducted 2 Malibu real estate transactions with the O’Herlihys. The first was sale of my multimillion dollar home thru Cormac 2 years ago; the second rental of my guest house a few weeks ago thru Wailani. Both transactions involved advertising and multiple showings. Both involved quite complex interactions with the buyer/tenant that required openness, sensitivity, and good judgment well beyond obtaining signatures. In both transactions, I ended up thankful that the O’Herlihys represented me. They have encyclopedic Malibu real estate knowledge, having lived and worked here for decades. They are exceptionally diligent in seeking, finding and screening potential buyers/renters. Both seller and buyer end up feeling that their ethics are impeccable. As such, O’Herlihys represent the best in the meaning of “broker,” one who fairly seeks and achieves a win-win solution in a real estate transaction.
Cormac and Wailani are extremely knowledgeable real estate experts. I strongly would recommend them for any of your real estate needs! They are both very responsive and and professional.
Cormac and Wailani are very professional, personable and caring! They work tirelessly for their clients, and as both a client and a home stager who works with them quite often, I see how quickly they help their clients sell, buy, or rent their homes. They are also very well known in the area both socially and professionally, so they are the go-to realtors of Malibu!
Wailani and Cormac are professional, attentive, friendly and knowledgeable! And very active in the community! Thank you for all your help !
I was very happy with Cormac and Wailani being my agents. During the time that they listed my Malibu beach house for sale they also found me top dollar tenants who agreed to show the house while they lived there. Everything went smoothly and if I ever move back to Malibu I’ll be calling them.
Can't say enough good things about our experience with Cormac & Wailani re: the sale of our Malibu property following the Woolsey fire. After we decided not to rebuild Cormac found a buyer for our land. He guided us through the escrow process which, as per usual, had the typical 'issues' pop up, all of them handled with professionalism and in an expeditious manner. This was our third time using Cormac and Wailani and we would not hesitate in using them again, or highly recommending them to anyone involved in purchasing, selling or renting.
Working with Cormac and Wailani was wonderful. Their professionalism and responsiveness to our concerns was second to none. We couldn’t have purchased this home without them.
Cormac and Wailani are consummate professionals, know their markets intimately and are a pleasure to work with. They have helped me with my real estate needs for many, many years on multiple transactions. I always look forward to working with them.

In terms of real estate representation you couldn't find better. He has the knowledge expertise and vast experience that works to the benefit of his clients.
We decided to hire Cormac & Wailani O'Herlihy after a failed listing with another realtor. They were amazing from always being in communication, having knowledge of the area as well as connecting and organizing us with vendors, for example Home staging. They made the experience of selling our home a smooth and simple process. We loved living in Oak Park, especially the "open space" but had an opportunity to live the island life and sold our dream home.
This is a seasoned Malibu team. They know the market well. This is not the first time we have used them.
My partner Barry Simson and I have over a 25 year amazing business relationship with The O Herlihy's...Wailani and Cormac are both the most polite, efficient, diligent detail oriented real estate professionals we have ever worked with. They know the W LA Pacific Palisades Malibu Westlake Village Agoura Hills Thousand Oaks real estate markets extremely well...we as private homeowners and investors with the O Herlihy's have been well served by their knowledge and negotiating skills!! We also love them as a beautiful family who care and graciously give back to the communities they serve. Simply the best!
For eighteen months we had struggled to sell our home with another agent. After the Woolsey Fire decimated the Malibu real estate market, we turned to the amazing team of Cormac and Wailani O'Herlihy and we are so happy we did. Despite the impact of the Woolsey disaster, Cormac and Wailani wasted no time in investing in an intense marketing campaign,devoting their full energies to the sale of our home. They are true professionals in their approach and attention to details, no hesitant to confront any obstacles. These past two years have been difficult for everyone and yet Cormac and Wailani were there for us. We highly recommend their services and we are confident you will agree.
Cormac-Wailani sold us our house in 2015 we were so happy it was our dream home and they brought us through a very difficult time negotiating everything since we had no idea what we were doing we were really lucky to have them working with us . we were very happy with their performance as real estate agents and recommend them to anyone coming to Malibu and looking to find their dream home!!!
Cormac and Wailani are not only expert Malibu realtors (few know the market better), but they are also wonderful people who have exceptional integrity. They are honest, decent, straight shooters, and they add value at all points in the sales transaction, from beginning to end. I can highly recommend Cormac and Wailani for any Malibu purchase or sale. I believe they are the gold standard of Malibu realtors.
I loved working with Cormac and Wailani! They are professional, kind, intelligent, and devoted to their clients!
Excellent service from start to finish!

We had a really bad leasing experience with this realtor that hung us out to dry and do not want others to go through if leasing through this realtor. When we were looking to lease a property in Malibu the response was very good. However, after staying at the property for 9 months, the move out experience with this firm was unprofessional, a very slow response, no final walk through from this firm or the landlord even though we requested one, and to our shock we did not get our original deposit back of over $10,000 due to unauthorized deductions by the landlord. What’s worse, to add insult to injury, they had also increased our rent by 50% for a few months during our stay! After spending almost $300,000 in leasing through this realtor, this turned out to be a horrible customer service experience with this this realtor that we do not want others to go through.
Cormac & Wailani acted as our real estate agents to sell our Malibu home. They were professional and conscientious, provided great advice, marketed our home extensively, and quickly closed a successful sale. We are very happy and highly recommend them to any buyer or seller.
We have been working with the O'Herlihy team for over a decade. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail has made it a pleasure to work with them. They keep current to what is happening in the real estate market to ensure you get the top dollar for your home along with having the latest tools to ensure the best marketing to sell your home. We highly recommend working with them!
Cormac and Wailani were an absolute pleasure to work with. During these uncertain times, they were a reliable team I could always count on. They were responsive, professional, transparent, kind, generous with their time, not pushy and most importantly, they closed the deal! This was the smoothest, easiest real estate transaction I've ever done and I can't thank Cormac and Wailani enough for helping us make this beautiful home ours.
We have bought and sold many homes over many years and these realtors were as competent, conscientious and committed as any. They are friendly, responsive professionals who provided good advice throughout the process.
