David handled the sale of our family home in Berkeley after the passing of my dad. There was a lot of things to do before even getting the property on the market. David handled all of it (moving, contractors, minor repairs, plumbing issues) etc. It was hard enough having to sell the house, but David was really easy and thoughtful during the whole process. The open house was fantastic and we sold the house in record time. It was all very seamless. My sister in law was also selling her house in another area and marveled at how much more helpful and engaged David was in the sale of our place than her agent was in selling her place. I highly recommend David if you are looking for someone. -DTW
I would absolutely recommend David. I have experience with David both buying and selling a house. He has also given my family valuable advice over the years regarding the management and leasing of my parents home. David has so much experience in this area and an intimate knowledge of the particularities of East Bay real estate. I value and trust completely his judgement. A unique quality which David has is great people skills. In my opinion, the ability to understand people and help them determine what they actually want is key. David is realistic and is able to guide you through the labyrinth of details that are part and parcel with buying or selling a property. David helped us purchase a house in Albany for my father. It was critical that the purchase was a success as the house was directly across the street from my brother's house. David made it happen for us. Sadly, my father passed away suddenly before he was able to move in. We were left with a house that we didn't really want to keep and wanted to sell it immediately. Obviously it was a stressful time for me and my family. David handled everything regarding the sale, including staging the house and fixing the yard. It was a unique situation and David sold the house quickly, smoothly and for a very good price. I might add that while this was all happening David went on his honeymoon to Europe but never missed a beat and was available to help us no matter where he was. We have many friends who have used David to purchase or sell their houses over the years. If I have any real estate needs in the future I would not consider using anyone but David. -MB
