About Shana Tavangarian

Shana is a Los Angeles native who grew up with real estate in her DNA, developing a passion for the industry at an early age. With a refined eye for design, a natural ability to connect with people, and an instinct for uncovering a property’s true potential, she approaches every client relationship with care, intention, and unwavering work ethic. Understanding each client’s unique personality, vision, and taste remains at the core of her process, allowing her to thoughtfully tailor every home search—or the search for the right buyer.

In under 5 years of experience in real estate, Shana has closed over $450 million in sales. As a member of Carolwood Estates, Shana has firmly made her mark on the Los Angeles luxury landscape. From negotiating dream deals for first-time buyers to representing some of the city’s most notable estates, her work has earned recognition from The Wall Street Journal, Robb Report, Architectural Digest, and numerous local and national publications.

Some awards received by Shana include the Leader of Influence for residential real estate by the Los Angeles Business Journal, RealTrends, and Real Estate All Star by Los Angeles Magazine. Shana and Emila have also received the Top Team award two years in a row at The Beverly Hills Estates.

Each step of her career has been a foundation for excellence in luxury residential brokerage. A graduate of the University of Southern California with a degree in Communications, her background in hospitality and event production at the h.wood Group, and retail and restaurant brokerage at Cushman & Wakefield has shaped her into a highly skilled, service-driven advisor.

Her intuition, strategic vision, and deep understanding of the Los Angeles market allowed her to place restaurants that have since become integral to their surrounding communities. “What sets me apart is that I grew up immersed in the LA real estate world and know this city—the people, the culture, and the nuances—intimately,” Shana says. “My background in hospitality taught me how to work under pressure, deliver at the highest level, and maintain genuine relationships. I want every client to feel they can reach me at any time, and that I truly understand their sensitivities, aspirations, and needs.”

Her experience balancing the goals of high-profile individuals and large corporations has uniquely prepared her to anticipate and exceed the expectations of Carolwood Estates’ discerning clientele. Shana is also fluent in Spanish and Farsi, allowing her to seamlessly serve a global audience.
