With a career spanning 18 years in the dynamic and competitive Silicon Valley and San Francisco Bay Area real estate market, I have established myself as a REALTOR® who is much more than just a guide through buying and selling properties. My experience encompasses a vast spectrum of real estate services, catering to buyers, sellers, and investors with a level of expertise and insight that only years in the field can afford.
Early Beginnings and Evolution
My journey in the real estate industry began nearly two decades ago. Over the years, I have honed my skills and understanding of the market's nuances, adapting to its ever-changing dynamics. This experience has not only enriched my knowledge but has also allowed me to build a network of invaluable contacts and resources, critical in navigating the complex Silicon Valley real estate landscape.
Joining Compass
My recent move to join Compass marks a significant milestone in my career. Compass, renowned for its innovative approach and technological prowess, provides a platform that enhances my ability to serve my clients more efficiently. With Compass, the wealth of resources now at my disposal—including cutting-edge technology aids—enables me to reduce the manual workload substantially. This shift allows me to dedicate more time to my clients, offering a more personalized service and adding greater value to their real estate ventures.
The Wealth Builder Team Initiative
As a seasoned real estate broker, I am particularly excited about the creation of the “David Wealth Builder Team” under Compass's brokerage. This initiative isn't just about forming another real estate team; it's about crafting a group of professionals deeply committed to not just facilitating real estate transactions, but to aiding in wealth creation through strategic real estate investments.
The Wealth Builder Team stands apart in its approach. We believe real estate is a pivotal tool in wealth building, and our mission is to provide clients with not just homes or investment properties, but with opportunities to enhance their financial well-being. We pride ourselves on offering tailored advice and strategies that align with our clients' long-term financial goals, whether they are first-time buyers, seasoned homeowners, or savvy investors.
A Focus on Client Relationships and Market Expertise
In my 17 years in the industry, what has remained constant is my dedication to building lasting relationships with my clients. I believe in being a partner and advisor to them, rather than just a service provider. My approach is deeply personal, and I invest time in understanding each client's unique situation, preferences, and aspirations.
Staying abreast of the market trends is crucial in Silicon Valley's ever-evolving real estate landscape. I am committed to continuous learning and staying informed about the latest market developments, ensuring that my clients always receive the most accurate and current information to make well-informed decisions.
Looking Ahead
As I embark on this new chapter with Compass and the Wealth Builder Team, my commitment to my clients remains unwavering. I look forward to leveraging the new resources and technology at my disposal to offer an even higher level of service and expertise. My goal is to continue helping my clients navigate the complex real estate market, ensuring they achieve their property ownership and investment goals.
In the heart of Silicon Valley and Bay Area, where the real estate market is as vibrant and diverse as the community it serves, I am here to be your trusted advisor, your strategic negotiator, and your partner in your journey towards real estate success.

"I bought my first house with Dare in 2013 and had a great experience working with him.
I have sold that house with Dare as a listing agent in 2019 and bought a new house with him as a buyers agent! Dare is the one who can make real estate contracts happen!"

My husband and I were first-time home buyers, and were nervous about buying a home in this competitive market. We found Dare through Redfin, and we're so glad that we used him as our agent.
Dare is very knowledgeable about the area, professional, friendly and informative. During our first meet we talked about what we were looking for and our budget. He patiently walked us through the process, and made everything very easy for us.
Most importantly, we valued his integrity. We saw around 25 houses that looking back, it wasn't worth the price we would have paid for many of them. Dare could have pushed us like many other real estate's agents and sold us any of the house we were looking into, but he encouraged us to hold out for the right house. He never rushed us on anything and was very patient throughout the process. Getting us into the right house at a good value was more important to him than making a quick commission. We would highly recommend Dare for anyone buying or selling their home.

I'm a first time homebuyer and typically it is a nerve wrecking experience hearing from other's experiences. But my case was different, it was very straight forward with Dare's help. He was very professional, friendly with a good sense of humor. With Dare you don't just get a REALTOR® that shows you homes etc, he educates you on the state of the market, how to analyze your deals, things to lookout for and he goes the extra mile to ensure you get your money's worth. He is very knowledgeable. He was readily available for any stupid questions I had. It was all round a very wonderful experience having Dare as my REALTOR®.
I totally recommend Dare and trust me it will be the best decision you've made in your home buying experience.

"Dare is outright phenomenal. As first-time homebuyers, we couldn't have asked for a better agent to work with. Dare was more than excellent throughout the entire process - ensuring that we were understood and supported every step of the way. He was extremely proactive on both ends between us and the seller's party, making sure that any revisions were communicated as soon as they materialized. Dare went above and beyond in making this house a reality for us. Simply put, Dare gets it done and we would recommend him every, single, time."

"I live in Orlando FL and buying a house in Hayward CA wasn't going to be an easy task. I am totally new to the Bay area housing market and then the pandemic and the travel difficulties. Fortunately Dare David was the REALTOR® I contacted. We picked the house and quickly settled on an offering price, Dare handled everything well and it was a smooth process from then all the way up to taking possession of the house after Escrow closing. He coordinated the matters with the sellers and the Escrow company and was always available to answer calls and respond back to my emails quickly . We finished the whole process seamless without me ever making the trip to California. I will certainly recommend Dare for real estate transactions, buy or sell."

"I happily and confidently recommend Dare as a trusted agent and real estate advisor in the Bay Area. Without him, I wouldn't have been able to move so fast in closing my first home purchase! FYI - Started the entire buying process Thanksgiving weekend and closed the second week of January (~1.5 months). As a first time home buyer, the real estate buying process was very alien to me; however, I am very glad that I had Dare as my real estate agent to help and educate me through the entire process. He is very well versed in the market space and did a lot of the behind-the-scenes research for me to help me understand what the market looked like today; so, I felt comfortable knowing my negotiation power and confident to have him negotiate with me in the offer process. During the contract/offer negotiation process, he consistently made it a point to always lay out my options on the table, weigh any potential risks, and call out any non-standard terms or conditions that I should be made aware of. Dare's constant communication skills (via email, text and calls) kept me very assured of our timeline-to-close and of any outstanding items that needed to be complete. I appreciated his transparency about any situation that we were put in, so that I can better assess with him what needed to get done. He was always working to ensure that my needs were being met and any + all questions (no matter how trivial or small) were answered. Overall, I am very satisfied with Dare's support and excellent services."

Tolulope Paul-Taiwo at Cisco Dare was very prompt in providing feedback to my questions. He was quick in finding answers to questions and kept contacting the Escrow company to get results. He assured me every step of the way and provided guidelines and practical expectations on the timeline of completion.
