ABOUT MIMI AND JON

     Mimi Stevens Torp

Born in beautiful Santa Monica and raised in Santa Monica and Brentwood, Mimi Stevens Torp is that rare breed of second generation, native Southern Californian. Having attended local schools, Mimi has experienced the Westside's incredible growth first hand. This has afforded her invaluable insights and an unparalleled comprehensive overview of Westside properties.

An art major in college, upon graduation, Mimi worked in accounting at the J. Paul Getty Museum and later was a business manager for an interior design magazine in Los Angeles. Mimi began her real estate career with the Jon Douglas Company in 1987. Her special expertise is in the sale and marketing of single-family homes and condos from Beverly Hills to Malibu.

In consideration of her consistently excellent sales production, Mimi has been an honored member of the elite Coldwell Banker President’s Circle for the past five years.

Mimi is renowned for her personalized service, compassionate professionalism and unrivaled attention to detail. In fact, Mimi's past clients have been so impressed and pleased with her poised proficiency that the majority of her business is a direct result of referrals and industry word-of-mouth.

Mimi has been active with charities including Friends of Animals, Stray Haven, Pet Orphans Fund, The American Cancer Society and the Center For Healthy Aging.

She currently resides in Santa Monica with her real estate partner and husband, Jon Torp, their daughter, Emily, Beagle pup “Rocky” and overly excitable, "All American" dog, Natty.

JON TORP joins his wife, Mimi Stevens, in real estate sales following successful careers in Public Relations and the Entertainment Industry. As a sales professional, Jon's background in marketing support, public relations and the Internet/ communications media provides clients with the real estate advantage they so richly deserve.

Prior to practicing real estate, Jon served as senior account executive with The Klinger Group, a Los Angeles based marketing and public relations agency. During his seven-year tenure, Jon honed those special skills that greatly benefit his real estate clients: strategizing marketing plans, inter-industry networking and most of all, client service.

In addition, Jon has written a number of Television pilots and feature film scripts. This hands-on experience has given him a special empathy for the special needs, incredible pressures and extreme time restraints confronting Steven-Torp's extensive entertainment industry clientele -- and as a result has produced a unique and remarkable bond.

Jon not only embraces, but outright bear hugs the Internet and its potential. An award-winning Web Consultant and Designer, Jon has the working knowledge and resources to fully tap the greatest real estate marketing resource currently available. This affords Stevens-Torp clients the advantage of direct access and exposure to an ever-expanding marketplace and pool of buyers.

Avid environmentalists, Jon and Mimi developed, created and sponsors the hugely successful “Environ-Medals” program at their daughter Emily’s school. This program rewards kids with an “Environ-Medal” for successfully completing a series of Earth Friendly tasks.  The program has quickly spread throughout the Santa Monica School District and beyond.  Jon and Mimi were recognized by the Los Angeles business Journal with a "Green Agent Award" for this worthwhile program.   CNN also featured the program on their Headline News.

Along with coaching his daughter Emily’s AYSO Soccer and ASA Fast Pitch Softball teams,  Jon does volunteer work for charities including Friends of Animals, Stray Haven, Pet Orphans Fund and the American Cancer Society.
