Meet your real estate connector: Susie Wyshak

Find your place. Live your best life. From Berkeley to Bar Harbor to Barcelona.

Susie Wyshak with happy clients

Searching for a right-hand real estate advisor and East Bay expert? One who takes time to know and pursue your goals? Meet Susie Wyshak., Compass agent and UC Berkeley alum.

Let’s connect the dots to your best life, with clarity.

Know that feeling of finding your place? A place that makes you go “ahhh…”? Maybe it’s somewhere you vacation or somewhere you already live. Somewhere that makes you say “Stop asking me if I want to sell! I’m never leaving.” I’ve helped my clients do it. And have even done it for myself, as a solo buyer.

Expect a clear process, communication, and choice.

When buying a home, connecting the dots takes you to the vision of the life you want — with no pressure. When selling, connecting the dots helps you net the most with minimal stress, on your terms. And if buying before selling, our team helps make your transition as seamless as possible.

Kind reviews from clients…

After millions of dollars in home sales in Alameda, Oakland, Berkeley and beyond as an East Bay REALTOR®, it all became clear. My love of helping people achieve their lifestyle goals has led to my calling: Being a 5-star rated real estate agent for buyers and sellers.

BE AN EMPOWERED SINGLE HOME BUYER

Buying solo and want a trusted advisor who will help you stop renting?

You CAN live the life you want with the security and wealth-building benefits of home ownership.

As a single woman who’s bought property myself, including one in Rockridge, a team of trusted partners makes all the difference. That means honesty, no pressure, and a commitment to pointing out what you might not like about a place — and opportunities to build equity with a light fixer. That’s why my clients receive “How Your House Works” as a gift! Knowledge is power. Let’s team up!

How’s the East Bay real estate market in February 2026?

The Bay Area is a huge housing market as is the East Bay. Ask me for stats on any sub-markets:

  1. The AI boom and Mayor Daniel Lurie have transformed the San Francisco real estate market. San Francisco agents can’t find enough properties for all the buyers! This demand crosses the bridge into the East Bay market.
  2. In Berkeley and Rockridge, most single-family homes are still selling within two weeks with multiple offers over the asking price. Who’s buying? Buyers are often people in tech, seniors downsizing from the hills to the flats, as well as parents investing in properties for their UC Berkeley students.
  3. Buyer demand in the East Bay is still strong in many towns and neighborhoods — especially those that are near BART lines for transportation into the office.

Is it a good time to buy or sell? Take a quick look at recent sales stats and long-term home price trends. Then let’s chat. Ask me for an amazingly detailed real estate data online flip book, courtesy of Compass.

2026 Real Estate Trend: Co-buying a multi-family or compound with friends or family

Buying a multi-family property in the Bay Area with friends, family or even for co-workers can have so many benefits. Many clients ask about co-buying and co-housing. The most important thing is to have agreements, whether informal, written using a lawyer, or structured as legal Tenants in Common (TICs). You want to agree ahead of time how it will work and scenarios for the future if someone wants to sell, if repairs are needed, if one person wants to rent out their unit, etc.) Ask me to hear about potential multi-family properties or if you’d like a seminar on co-buying / co-housing.

Why Buy Together?

  • Get more for your money and have more choice in the ideal location.
  • Share in expenses such as utilities, upkeep and insurance.
  • Look out for and help each other especially single parents and elders.
  • Having friendly folks nearby can be the antidote to loneliness.
  • Build community with likeminded friends.
  • Live in your ideal location with increased buying power.

Thinking about leaving California?

I left my native California once. I blame the famous 1997 Kurt Vonnegut speech. Before long, I had returned to California. Statistics show that thousands of people move to California and leave California every year, most to and from a handful of states. (The one-way exodus is a myth.) If you’re pondering going back to California OR leaving, reach out for tips and connections to consulting groups and agents.
