Thank You for coming to web4homes.com where our goal is to give you lots of information about this community and our services.  We specialize in real estate for your residential or investment needs.   Our recent projects range from $100,000 condominiums to $8 million estates.  We can handle your commercial investments and leasing as well: apartments, office, retail and industrial. 

Our Mission is to provide you with the benefits of our skill, experience, and patience, whether you are buying or selling a home or seeking funding for a purchase or refinance.  Our motto is "Competence with Compassion."   Our ultimate reward is your recommendation to friends and neighbors.  Please review our credentials and try our service.  Your confidence will be well placed.

Community Involvement helps us to understand our community, and allows us to share our good fortune with others.   We are actively involved in fundraising projects for many charities with our Bay Tour Cruises  We support the Taylor Family Foundation, Contra Costa Interfaith Housing, Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, Special Olympics, Soroptimists, and several local elementary and high schools.

We are also active in Northern California Special Olympics; we were awarded Volunteer Couple of the Year for 2007.  Renee was recognized individually as Volunteer of the Year for 2009.  Renee also helps organize events for the  Multiple Sclerosis Foundation.

Kevin serves on the Board of Directors for the Berkeley Yacht Club, currently as Vice Commodore, and is one of the organizers of the 2010 Sarcoma Cup Regatta   Proceeds go to Beat Sarcoma, which funds research at Stanford and UCSF.  Kevin is also a fundraising-event leader for Pegasus Project, which is dedicated to introducing underprivileged children to sailings and other on-water activities. 

Kevin is 2010 Chair of the Berkeley Yacht Club's Youth Sailing Program, and is a past volunteer coach for Lafayette Moraga Youth Association and Lafayette Peanut League.  While in college, he was active in student government at Diablo Valley College, Cal Berkeley, and Notre Dame MBA program.   At the former he was President of the Associated Student, and at the latter he was volunteer leader of a recruitment program to attract women and minority MBA candidates.   And participated in an outreach program to assist small business development in South Bend.

We have also been very active in opposing irresponsible development in the community.   Our most recent involvement is with Save Acalanes Ridge preventing the unsightly development of Acalanes Ridge between Lafayette and Walnut Creek.  Our own project No2Blight.com is at present devoted to that issue, but available for involvement in other causes.
