June 2020 at a glance
Each city is broken out by property type. Reporting a single blended median would misstate this market, most of all in Moraga, where condominium and townhouse prices sit well below detached homes.

Full bioEight reasons Lamorinda sellers choose a different approach
Most listings need more than MLS exposure. BrightWork diagnoses, designs, and executes a full strategy for homes across Lafayette, Moraga, and Orinda, combining presentation, modern tools, financial programs, and long-cycle local experience.
Superior Presentation
Professional photography, floor plans, 3D tours, and Sky Tours on every listing. Not the luxury package. The baseline.
Premium Portal Presence
Zillow Showcase and premium homes.com membership. Higher view counts, better placement, and buyer inquiries that route to your listing team.
Integrated Campaigns
Every sign, mailer, and open house connects to a digital system. Curious neighbors become trackable leads.
Modern Offer Management
Real-time portal data guides pricing decisions. Final Offer platform for properties with strong multi-offer potential.
Financial Tools & Capital Programs
Capital to fund pre-sale improvements with no out-of-pocket cost until close. Plus programs that remove the timing trap entirely.
Off-Market Strategy
A private list of serious Bay Area buyers. Test demand quietly or gain early access before properties hit MLS.
Advocacy for Unsold Homes
When a home hasn't sold, we don't re-list at a lower price. We conduct a forensic review and relaunch with a rebuilt strategy.
Built to Close Clean
Pre-sale prep, real fixes, and full disclosure to every buyer before the house lists. The preparation is the negotiation.
