About
Brett

Brett Karns has been in the field of real estate practically his entire life. At the age of 15, an intern in his father’s office, Brett was introduced to a vocation that would ultimately become his passion, all while delivering flyers on a beloved skateboard. While attending college for a degree in Business, Brett concurrently obtained his real estate license, and thus began his real-estate career. However, selling homes wasn’t Brett’s truest passion. Well-before it was trending to “flip” houses, Brett purchased his first home (at the young age of twenty) and after remodeling the entire property he sold the home for profit. Brett would do this over a dozen more times throughout his twenties, honing his now signature style and building a respected reputation. On the forefront of home development in the Los Angeles, Brett was poised to make his entrance and in 2009, WestKoast Properties, LLC- A boutique development firm emphasizing quality over quantity, was born. WestKoast Properties is currently thriving, with multiple custom home & multi-residential projects throughout the Los Angeles area. Dedicated to building homes, where he personally would reside, Brett prides himself on his attention to detail and finding just the right buyer for each custom build. By selling his own properties, essentially “giving his creation away,” Brett has gained firsthand experience in the joy of changing someone’s life, while watching their next chapter unfold. As a Father & dedicated husband, Brett and his wife have placed great emphasis on giving back to their community as a way to teach their young daughter humility. By using his designer skills and builder background Brett and family have supported such causes as TreePeople LA, Habitat for Humanity, Union Station Homeless Services and Heal the Bay. With a passion for design, he created Brett D. Karns Designs, to bring a piece of his luxury home aesthetic into your space. Whether it be a bathroom, kitchen remodel, walk-in closet, or ADU Brett gives each client the same attention to detail that he’s built his impeccable reputation on. As an animal & nature lover, Brett enjoys quality time with his family and hikes through-out Los Angeles.
