Questions buyers & sellers ask most.
What is house hacking?
House hacking is purchasing a duplex, triplex, or fourplex, living in one unit as your primary residence, and renting out the others. With FHA financing, you can buy a multi-unit property with as little as 3.5% down — far below the 20–25% required for traditional investment properties. Rental income from the other units can even help you qualify with lenders.
Explore Multi-Unit Investing Duplex Buyer GuideHow does online bidding work?
Instead of keeping buyer offers hidden, our transparent online bidding portal lets verified, pre-qualified buyers view active bids in real time. This auction-style environment builds competition and buyer confidence, often driving the final sale price above what traditional negotiations achieve — while sellers retain full control to accept, reject, or negotiate terms.
Learn About Our Selling StrategyCan I buy a home without 20% down?
Absolutely. FHA loans require as little as 3.5% down for buyers with credit scores of 580 or above, and conventional loans can start at 3%. California programs like CalHFA may also cover a significant portion of your down payment. Many first-time buyers close with far less cash out of pocket than they expected.

Low housing inventory across Alameda, Contra Costa, and Solano counties means quality homes sell quickly, even when interest rates fluctuate. Median prices in communities like Richmond ($644K) and San Pablo ($520K) remain more accessible than many Bay Area alternatives. The key is preparation — getting pre-approved and working with an experienced consultant who can move fast when the right property appears.
