Donald J. Grubb founded The Grubb Company in 1967. Many things have changed since then. But some – those important things that define us as a company – have endured.

Our community has certainly changed. It has grown, evolved and seen its share of real estate ups and downs. The business of transacting real estate is different, too. More complexity, more agents and fewer independent real estate companies deeply connected to our community characterize today’s market.

What hasn’t changed is more fundamental. Buyers and sellers in our community want expert real estate advice, skilled representation and support from a trusted local brand.

We still deliver that.

Our foundation of discipline, accountability, and teamwork is as strong as ever. Our market leadership and unmatched local knowledge are being put to work for a new generation of families in Piedmont, Berkeley, Oakland and Kensington.

The best agents, a higher level of service

Real estate is important. Who you work with matters. That’s why we retain only the best, most productive agents at The Grubb Company. In fact, Grubb Company agents have a higher sales volume than agents at any other independent real estate company in our community.

That means more experience and more local knowledge behind every transaction.

We also recognize that real estate is more than pricing, rates and getting to the closing table. It’s about service too. Full service. The sort of support too few offer these days, but anyone buying or selling something as precious as a home deserves.

Unlike other residential Realtors, our offices in Oakland and Berkeley are staffed with highly trained transaction coordinators, a full marketing team and 14 operational staff members. They are there to make sure your real estate experience is smooth, professional and successful.
