Across the Tri-Valley and Surrounding East Bay Communities

Learn about the character and amenities of each area as you tour, insights you can’t get from photos alone.

“Working with Doug was an amazing experience.
We actually started looking for our home in 2019, as we started looking the market just took off. We saw so many homes and through this process Doug, got better at understanding what we were looking for.
We NEVER felt pressured to make a decision. Doug was professional, always responsive and on time with all our requests. He also knows the area like the back of his hand.
Once we found the home we were all in on, he was already preparing for inspections. He negotiated diligently on our behalf never once making us feel like we were under the gun. Truly felt like he was on our side. After we closed Doug had all the local contacts for moving, cleaning, repairs etc.
I HIGHLY recommend working with Doug if you are looking for someone who is professional, patient and knows his market.
You’re amazing Doug!”
