Founded in 1967 by Donald J. Grubb Sr. and now run by Principals D.J. Grubb and John Karnay, The Grubb Company has built its foundation on discipline, accountability, and teamwork. For nearly four decades, our full-service boutique has led the real estate market serving generations of families in Piedmont, Berkeley, Oakland and Kensington.

When you walk into The Grubb Company, you are treated exactly the same whether you are spending $400,000 or $4 million. Unlike other residential realtors, our offices in Oakland and Berkeley contain transaction coordinators and a full marketing team that expedites your business within each location. Because The Grubb Company is a self-contained brokerage firm, all decisions are made at the local level, and not far away in some impersonal corporate office. This assures your constant personal attention and our ability to offer a unique variety of services to help you consummate a successful sale.

Our highly developed team of 55 agents is deeply knowledgeable about our community and they have been carefully selected for their human empathy, attention to detail, and strong work ethic. In fact, The Grubb Company generates the highest individual sales volumes of any residential real estate firm in Northern California. Our 14 operational staff fully supports our agents and ensures that every real estate transaction runs smoothly and professionally. The result is a well-orchestrated, complete residential real estate company unmatched in the industry.
