    Finding Off-Market Properties For Buyers in Berkeley

    BySusie Wyshak February 9, 2026February 20, 2026

    When it comes to looking for properties for clients, showing the same houses everyone who’s house hunting can find online is not an option.

    BySusie Wyshak December 8, 2025March 5, 2026

    Why work with Susie Wyshak to buy a home?

    The price of gold is at an all time high, more than 10x what it was around 1980 when the price shot up. Before then it had been relatively flat for decades. The price of Bay Area real estate has had a slower trajectory up. As you can see in this Median Home Price Trends…

Convincing aspiring home buyers NOT to buy a house or to understand what it will take to fix up a house is JOB #1 as a buyer's agent. Showing houses after a torrential rain is a joy. How is the property draining? Is any water getting into the foundation or the house? Where is the water coming from - the roof or the earth or both? What isn't job #1? Getting you to buy any old house. Get more home buying tips from your straightshooting Agent Susie at https://www.susiewyshak.com DRE 02144226 Compass
