Why Work with The Grubb Company?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
Our house was a vessel for peak memories in our life, a place of safety and security, and ultimately a silent family member. Yet when we were deciding who to trust with selling our beloved home, that decision was easy. Lisa Chan Carnazzo is truly one of a kind.
She shared her knowledge of the local real estate market, educated us on the latest architectural trends, introduced us to amazing local resources. She's a constant professional who addresses all of our big and small questions but with the tender heart that we truly valued throughout this process. We love that Lisa's glow shines and radiates on all others. We couldn't be happier or more grateful! THANK YOU SO MUCH, LISA!!!!!!

I found Lisa a year before we were ready to start making offers. Piedmont was our first choice and we wanted to work with a realtor who knew the area well and who could maximize our chances of getting into Piedmont. Lisa was responsive and assured us we could get into Piedmont at our price point. Over the course of a year, we kept in contact with her until we were ready to make offers. When we were, Lisa never pressured us to make an offer; instead, she encouraged us to only make offers on homes where we imagined that we'd be happy for the long term. How refreshing! We looked for three months before we found a house we really wanted. Our offer was accepted! And we were the only offer and we didn't have to counter! We are very happy with the price we got it at given the size of the house and the fact that we have great public schools K-12. I never dreamed we would be able to get into our dream location, and we are so happy we were. I would highly recommend Lisa, she knows the ins and outs of the market and is very knowledgeable and responsive. Thank you for all of your help, Lisa! We are two happy clients!

I've had the pleasure of working with Lisa and her clients on a few transactions now. Each time Lisa has exhibited excellent communication skills which is imperative in a Real Estate transaction. Lisa is a true professional and client advocate.
If you are looking to buy or sell in the Piedmont/Oakland area, I would high recommend her!

Lisa came to us highly recommended and now we know why. We listed a property in Hayward with her and couldn't have hoped for a smoother sales cycle or better result.
Lisa took care of everything. She advised us to remodel the property and brought in contractors she regularly works with. She suggested what work to do and what materials and colors to choose. She understands the markets she works in and knows what buyers are looking for today. In addition she has great taste, so we trusted her completely and just followed her advice.
We had 12 offers and the property sold for over 20% above asking.
An amazing experience.

Lisa helped us out through the entire home selling process, hearing my concerns and offering options for how to sell, when to sell, how to prepare, ideas for movers, what to do about the tenant occupied ADU, and much more. Lisa managed all of the house preparations like yardwork, painting, staging, while we were away, taking care of all the details for us. She was super responsive and real through the whole process. We ended up with a great offer and are very pleased with the outcome.
Great job, Lisa! Thank you!

Lisa was instrumental in helping us sell our property and exceed our goals for both time on the market and price. We had a very challenging property that was tenant occupied during the pandemic. We needed creative solutions to prepare the house for market. Lisa was a problem solver and she always knew the right questions to ask and most fruitful avenues to pursue. As difficult and stressful as the situation was for me, Lisa was a pleasure to work with. She was always professional and accessible and she worked tirelessly to take care of all of the details. Lisa was a true advocate, and was both caring about us and supportive of our goals. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

There was nothing more daunting than looking for a new home on the West Coast from the East Coast. We grew to quickly trust Lisa's experience, her ability to navigate the competitive landscape and the advice she had going into contract submissions. Once we got a contract on a home, she tirelessly advocated for us at each step. I wouldn't have wanted to do this without her, because in between the stressful moments (of which there were a lot), we laughed and became friends. She wanted this for us as much as we did -- and it showed.

With Lisa's help and guidance, we moved out of our house, sold it, and had the keys to our dream home in less than six weeks. Lisa is laser-focused, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the market. Her attention to detail meant that we never missed a document, a deadline, or an opportunity to do our best in this challenging market. She knows exactly how to get the most for your home and what it takes to bid on a new one.
She's also warm, thoughtful, and has a great sense of humor. If you're going to do something as intense and terrifying as buying or selling a home in the Bay Area, Lisa is exactly who you want by your side.

Selling a house isn't easy, but Lisa makes it painless. She told us what appliances to replace and upgrade to get the most bang for our buck, handled all the vendors (landscaping, handyman, hardwood floor refinishers, staging, etc), and priced the house just right to get us over twenty bids and an unbelievable price. She's professional, hard-working, strategic, fun, and relatable. Her real estate knowledge is immense and you will feel lucky to have known and worked with her.

Lisa was a great realtor to work with. From day one she took the time to listen to what we were looking for in our first home. We never felt any pressure during our 9 month search, and Lisa patiently guided us through countless walkthroughs, offers and disappointments. Thanks Lisa for all of your support and for really getting to know us in the process!
