We interviewed quite a few agents and are extremely pleased we chose to work with Diane. From our very first meeting, we appreciated her preparation, her thoroughness, and her deep understanding of the real estate market. Diane has all the skills one would want in a realtor: a grasp of the market and economic factors, attention to detail, strong ethics, great marketing and project management, highly effective communication skills, a tireless work ethic, and quick response times. She did an amazing job managing the process of preparing our home for sale. She and her partner Wendy Bond both had thoughtful and innovative ideas about what upgrades were worth our investment. Their ability to bring in reliable contractors and manage the process (staying within the budget and on schedule) made a huge difference in selling our home and made it less stressful for us. Diane and Wendy made sure that our property looked its best and was marketed thoroughly and effectively. They both worked hard. Even after the sale, Diane has remained extremely helpful with any follow-up items. We really enjoyed working with Diane and Wendy. We are so grateful for the results they helped us to achieve in selling our home, and we would highly recommend them.

Dealing with Diane and Patty was a pleasure. They delivered on so many levels that selling my home, though very complex, was actually relatively easy. The vast number of transaction details required were more than I had ever anticipated; however, Diane walked me through each in a very expeditious manner. Meanwhile, “behind the scenes” the Dwyer team cleared out all of the many things I had “just left” and then brought in teams to clean all rooms, resurface the floors, and prepare the house to be shown. Within a few days they had a buyer with a very clean offer and we closed in record time. Thank you for a job well done!

Diane was recommended by a friend that had purchased previously purchased a home in Orinda. We could not be happier that we had a chance to work with her. She has meticulous knowledge of the homes, neighborhoods, schools, cultures and people in the Lamorinda area. I was so impressed with her expertise. She has the knowledge and intuition to help you craft the right offer and she's an excellent negotiator that knows the market and the players. Personally, she's fun to work with. Buying a home in this market is incredibly stressful and time consuming so you're going to want to spend time with someone that makes it as painless as possible and have a little fun in the process. I trust her enough to always recommend her to my closes friends!!
