Who knew house hunting within a during the holidays could be so much fun?!! If youre looking for professionalism, great advice, extensive knowledge of East Bay neighborhoods (schools, restaurants, vibe, etc) and LOTS of laughter, look no further than The Clark Group. This father and son team are truly a dynamic duo. They perfectly balance each other out and actually make searching for the perfect home fun. Their years of experience and insider connections helped me be the first to find out about an amazing property, which I ended up winning, and I wasnt even the highest bidder. Their connections

Over the past 30 or so years I've worked with numerous relators as I've purchased several homes and apartment buildings during that time. Until now, I've never been motivated to post a review. My experience with Dan and Ellis was exceptional for several reasons. The biggest was that they exceeded my expectations in all areas. They helped manage and coordinate a substantial amount of work in order to get top dollar for my home. Both my wife and I found them to be a delight to work with and can't think of a single thing they could have done better.
