Thank you to everyone who joined us last week’s BARC Workshop at Kai Real Estate in Berkeley! ✨

We had an incredible afternoon diving into “Building a Business That Runs on Relationships, Not Ads”. A huge thank you to our guest speakers—Declan Spring, Brian McCarthy, and June McDaniels—for sharing their proven strategies on turning existing spheres of influence into reliable, referral-driven lead sources.

A special shoutout to Andy Spellman at La Salle Mortgage for sponsoring the food and drinks for teh workshop!

Join us for an in-person Monthly Mastermind at the Kai Real Estate office!

This in-person mastermind brings together three seasoned East Bay agents, June McDaniels, Brian McCarthy, and Declan Spring. They’ll unpack how they’ve grown lasting real estate businesses without relying on paid ads.

Between them, they represent decades of experience across market cycles, hundreds of millions in sales, and very different paths to the same result: strong, referral-driven client relationships. Expect a candid breakdown of the specific habits, networking, community events & staying top of mind that turned their existing spheres of influence into their most reliable lead source.

I am so excited to share this success story! My clients, W+K, decided to move from the East Coast to start a new chapter here in the Inner Bay Area.

There was definitely a lot to navigate regarding the different styles of real estate transactions between the two coasts. However, after writing two offers, they were able to snag an amazing home with a stunning view of the SF Bay Area!

The best part? We closed and I was able to hand them their keys within just 14 days.

Thank you, W+K, for trusting us with this major milestone!
Thank you Leslie Bandy of Red Oak Realty and for a smooth transaction!

R, K, and H closed on their new home after a whirlwind 14-day escrow!

While they initially set their sights on one specific neighborhood, our journey together revealed that the Inner Bay Area had so much more to offer. After exploring a few different properties and navigating the competitive market, we pivoted their search to find the perfect fit.

Their winning offer beat out three others, and I was thrilled to hand them the keys just two weeks later.

Thanks to Leslie Bandy with Red Oak Realty and cristinatabada with Chicago Title company for a smooth transaction.
