Doug Buenz Buyer Services

Experience and Knowledge

Doug Buenz has provided professional real estate services to his clients since 1989. He is not a pushy, hard-sell type of agent, but rather takes a consultative approach to evaluate his client's needs, and devise a strategy to help them achieve their goals.

Doug's experience and knowledge of the market is extensive. He has seen all types of market conditions, from the frenzied, multiple offer sellers markets to sluggish buyers markets, and everything in between. But while market conditions are constantly changing, Doug's commitment to providing the most professional real estate services available has never wavered. He understands the dynamics of the local real estate market, and can give his clients the perspective and insights they need to make smart decisions.

The Power of Information.

Doug maintains his 680 Blog, where he regularly provides information, commentary, and insights into market trends and local news. It is an excellent source of information for buyers to keep tabs on what is going on in the local market.

On this site, we also feature extensive school information and community information. If you are relocating to the Tri-Valley area, take advantage of our free relocation package for additional information and resources to assist you with your move. And visit our newsletter and tips & advice sections, where you will find a comprehensive library of articles and insights to help you make smart decisions.

Because of Doug's tremendous track record and years of experience in this market, he can provide you with the inside information and sense of perspective on prospective homes that you can't find with most agents. We listen carefully to your needs, and work hard to find neighborhoods and homes that will be suitable for you now, and a good investment in the long term.

The Art of Negotiation.

Finding your next home is only part of the process. Our service doesn't end with locating your next home… it is just the beginning of the process. From here we negotiate the contract on your behalf, making sure we have a sound strategy to obtain the best possible price and terms. We have negotiated hundreds of transactions, and have the instincts and skill to successfully reach an agreement on your behalf.

The Process.

Once you have successfully negotiated a purchase contract, our team works diligently to coordinating inspections and disclosures, interacting with the lender, and handling the dozens of tasks involved in closing the transaction. We are there to guide you and protect your interests through every step in the transaction, and beyond. Our excellent follow through and systematic communication means you will be informed every step of the way, from finding your home through closing. We have a large network of contractors and trades people to assist with all aspects of the sale. And our experience means that any unexpected issues or challenges can be dealt with quickly, and resolved in a satisfactory manner.

Our Focus.

Throughout the process, we are focused on you and your goals, and will use all of our considerable resources to ensure that you find a home that will not only meet your needs, but will be a source of pride and a solid investment for you for the long run.
