We couldn't be happier with choosing Brad Gothberg as our realtor to find our forever home. From the beginning, Brad was attentive, caring, and thoughtful. He did an amazing job helping us figure out what we were looking for in a home given that we were first time home buyers in a very crazy market. He has been in the business a long time, so his connections to others were so helpful when it came time to review disclosures, negotiate offers, and finalize our contract. A master negotiator, Brad always kept our interests at the forefront of his conversations with the selling agent. Calm under stress, deeply knowledgeable, and well connected; you simply can't go wrong with choosing Brad as your agent.
We can't say enough about Brad. He has been our realtor for 21 years, and he has bought and sold for us at least 10 times. There have been times when I didn't have him as our realtor because it's 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 report in its entirety, which I can verify from personal experiences, doesn't always happen. Some realtors seem to be in it just for the commission, and would not put a lot of effort if there was a "hiccup" that could 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 advice. Brad is an honest and very trustworthy person.

Brad is the most competent real estate agent I have ever dealt with. He is very responsive to your needs during the negotiation process and the processing of the transaction.
Our family has been buying properties through Brad and this time Brad helped us in buying another rental property. In short, our buying process was smooth and hassle free. His professional attributes and knowledge of the local real estate market, communication skills, his thorough review and inspection of the property, and his collaborative skills with the selling agent were remarkable. He provided excellent service and kept us informed from inception to the finish. If we need to buy another property, the choice is very obvious. it Brad. Good luck in your business and keep the good work.
Brad went above and beyond his agent responsibilities by overseeing and managing the install and permitting of a new furnace in order to prepare my deceased parents’ home for sale in CA, where I don’t live. He educated me and explained in detail the CA real estate contract, and assisted me with communicating with and providing the estate attorneys the documents they required. He provided a detailed timetable and calendar of what needed to be done to prepare the home for sale and he met every date. He communicated with me daily and was honest in his assessment of the home’s value and did not over inflate its value. The home received an offer higher than the list price within a day of the open house. Brad is the consummate professional, an expert in his field, and a very thoughtful and kind man. I consider me and my family very blessed to have had him represent us and sell our parents’ hom…

My family and I had to put our childhood home on the market after my mother passed and Brad was the consummate pro. From the minute he walked into our house we knew Brad was the right guy. He understood what the house meant to us, and you could tell this wasn't a guy just out to make a sale. He cares. He listened to our concerns, and there was no heavy sales pitch. He was honest and forthright, and he knew the neighborhood and the market. All of his suggestions from staging to making last minute improvements to help bring further value were spot on. The house sold the first weekend it was listed to a family that will now take the memories of our wonderful home and make new ones for themselves. Selling a house that means so much to you and knowing what it meant to your parents is no easy task. You want to honor their memory and you want to honor the house that meant so much to them. Brad …

Selling a house that means so much to you and knowing what it meant to your parents is no easy task. You want to honor their memory and you want to honor the house that meant so much to them. Brad understood this and he made this experience joyous, hell, even cathartic. Trust me on this. He's THE guy you want.
We were referred to brad through close family members, and when we first met him, we knew we were in good hands. Brad is extremely experienced in real estate and is very personable. We were treated like we were his only clients at a time when the market was hot and very competitive; no simple feat, but Brad always made time for calls, texts, and impromptu house showings. Brad really listened to our wants and needs list and showed us homes within our price range. We love that he never pushed us through the process, but instead, guided us to make sure we had all of the information when making critical decisions and that we were taken care of. Brad always had our best interest in mind and was able to point out details that would maybe go unnoticed to the untrained eye. We would highly recommend Brad when buying or selling your home -- he's also just a lot of fun to be around!
Brad is a terrific buyer's agent. He worked tirelessly to help my family find a home in the westside Alamo/Danville area (even over the holidays!). We were very picky clients as I wanted to live within walking distance of my childhood home and my husband wanted to have a fully turnkey house. Brad followed up on leads, made sure we were first to see every listing and even went door to door to see if anyone in our desired neighborhood was interested in selling. When we did finally find a home, he coached us through the offer and buying process. Brad also gave us sound advice regarding what due diligence to do even though we put in a non-contingent offer. I could not recommend Brad enough!
Working with Brad on the sale of my home was a wonderful experience. His knowledge and expertise in real estate as well as my neighborhood and surrounding area is one of the reasons I hired him. Brad is honest and efficient and quite the expert in this field; he broke a record for the sale price in my neighborhood. My house was sold before it even went on the market and for over asking price. Brad pays attention to every detail and the entire process from start to finish was completed efficiently and easily. I was always comfortable and I felt well taken care of during the process of selling my home after owning it for the last 25 years
Choosing a realtor for a trust sale after the passing of a parent is difficult. Your agent must be patient, empathetic and knowledgeable on all trust laws. This is equally true if there are 5 siblings involved! We interviewed multiple agent's prior to listing my moms house, and chose Brad. He assisted with all aspects of sale , as well as providing referrals for CPA's for trust distribution , and generally last and final taxes. We received multiple offers on my moms house, over asking price after brad assisted with staging and general repairs for the house. He helped co-ordinate both! Brad Gothberg exceeded all our needs and i highly recommend him . All transactions went smoothly and were done in an expedient manner. Thank you Brad for all you did to help us during this time of grief. Sincerely The Jeffrey Family.
