Kim and Jamie We can’t say enough about Brad. He has been our realtor for 21 years, and he has bought and sold for us it least 10 times. There have been times when I didn’t have him as our realtor, because its either been a transaction out of state or in Southern California, and I can tell you, we noticed the difference. Brad would approach every transaction as if it was for him and his family. Brad would go through every inspection reports in its entirety, which I can verify from personal experiences, doesn’t always happen. There are some realtors that seem to be in it just for the commission, and would not put a lot of effort if there was “hiccup” that could possibly complicate the sale. Brad would be there every step of the way, and there never was a time that we felt Brad wasn’t giving us the best advise. Brad is an honest and very trustworthy person...Something that’s very hard to come by. You want someone who is ethical, smart and has a big heart? Brad Gothberg is you realtor.

“
If you want someone to have your best interest at heart then Sante is your broker! He guided us ever step of the way to make sure we received top dollar for our home. He invested a ton of hours and energy to ensure we maximized our marketing and brought in a large amount of interested buyers. In addition, once we accepted an offer Sante made sure to follow up with the escrow company and even funded us
earlier then the original closing date. It’s rare that I come on Yelp to write a review but I highly value
good service and Sante is one of those rare brokers who believes in doing the right thing and building a relationship instead of a quick sale. Needless to say when it’s time to buy again we have our broker!” SELLER AND BUYER REVIEW

The Horner House
A California Historic Landmark
An Immaculate Remnant from a Bygone Era…
For nearly 175 years, the Horner House has been more than a place of residence. It’s a California landmark, built by a key figure in Bay Area history, and a link to one of the most important periods in our state’s history: The Gold Rush. Despite being one of the oldest homes on the California Register, the home is in pristine condition due to painstaking restoration and refinishing. Eligible for the Mills Act, ownership will provide you with significant property tax benefits. Ranch house to the rear of main house can be used as office space, additional family housing or rentals. 9 Beds, 5 Baths | 7016 SF | ADU - 1,402SF 2 Car Garage plus Upper Unit | Lot Size 27,705 SF
