If you're buying or selling in the East Bay, Patrick is the person to call. We worked with him to buy our home and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. He invested a lot of time upfront getting to know us, our priorities, and what we were looking for, and did a genuine deep dive on the neighborhoods, market dynamics, and the kinds of nuances that only someone with real local knowledge would think to bring up. It never felt transactional. He's also incredibly communicative throughout the whole process. We always knew where things stood, what was coming next, and what to expect. There was no chasing him down and no ambiguity. More than anything, we felt like he was consistently looking out for our best interests rather than just moving a deal forward. Patrick is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and a great person to have in your corner. We'd recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

Patrick helped us both with a purchase and a sale; throughout the two experiences he was calm, and ready to see both the humor and the difficulties in what we were about to do. He knows the Oakland-area market; he knows regulations; he knows the crafts- and trades-people who can make a house liveable and sellable. We plan to buy again soon, and will absolutely be working with him.

I can't recommend Patrick enough. His level of service was exceptional — he helped us figure out what we were actually looking for, dial in price, and land our dream home off market. He is very personable and made the whole process feel manageable. If you're looking for someone who will really show up for you, Patrick is your person.

Nashaba is an oracle when it comes to East Bay real estate. She was spot on with leads and expert at talking to sellers' agents to help us close the deal. She is incredibly kind, always adjusted to our schedule, and took us to see endless properties with a smile. As first-time homeowners with no local connections, having access to her network of lenders and contractors was a great head start for us. We highly recommend her!

When I started my home search, I reached out to a few top Bay Area agents at the same time. From day one, Nashaba stood out for her incredible responsiveness and how quickly she understood what I was really looking for. I was searching remotely from the Midwest with a packed work schedule, but that was never an issue. Nashaba was flexible, respectful of my time, and made the entire process feel seamless. What I appreciated most was that she never pushed any property — instead, she focused on making sure I felt confident and comfortable with every option we considered. During a short work trip to the East Bay, we found the perfect home (thanks to her thoughtful planning!). She handled everything — from negotiations and inspections to follow-ups and the final key handoff — so all I had to do was fly back to pick up my keys. Nashaba is not just a highly professional agent but also someone who genuinely cares about her clients. I couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience and would absolutely work with her again or recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted real estate partner.

Faye first found us a house in 1991 — it hadn’t even gone on the market yet but she knew it was just what we were looking for, and she made it happen. Fast forward 35 years and she just helped us quickly and efficiently sell our most recent house in the hills. The real estate business has evolved dramatically over those 35 years — it’s more complicated and requires attention to the most minute details — but Faye hasn’t missed a beat. She’s totally on top of all the issues and makes things as clean and easy as possible for her clients. Through it all she’s cheerful, upbeat and always available. Whenever we’re asked to recommend an agent, we don’t hesitate — it’s always Faye Keogh. Setting aside the real estate aspect, Faye’s also just been a good friend over those 35 years. She’s the best.

Forget about “Better Call Saul” ‘cause you “Better Call Faye” as she is the absolute BEST in real estate. My husband and I both highly recommend her as we bought and sold our house with her! In 2013, we moved from Boston to Berkeley and we needed to find a house for our growing family. We were extremely fortunate to find Faye Keogh at The Grubb Company who became our realtor! It seems like such a cliche, but she actually listened to us and only took us to houses that had true potential for our family. I remember walking into this beautiful Mediterranean house that she found and instantly thinking, “This is it!” We made so many beautiful and wonderful memories there as a family and with our friends. Twelve years later in 2025, with our kids in college and officially empty-nesters, we decided to downsize and put the house on the market. We went straight back to Faye! She returned and walked us through the entire selling process, keeping a keen, trained, and experienced eye on the current housing market, offered helpful suggestions for refreshing the house (We did live in it for 12 years with 2 busy kids!), organized effective Open Houses, and she hired the most amazing photographer, landscapers, house cleaners, and other professionals to showcase the house to its fullest potential. She is a true and seasoned professional, organized, kind, knowledgeable, an excellent communicator, and always very generous with her time, energy, and spirit. We really appreciated this! Plus, she knows the Berkeley area like the back of her hand! It was pure pleasure to work with her because buying and selling your most precious possession should be easy, drama- free, and dare I even say it…enjoyable and fun too. We truly had an amazing experience working with Faye!
