Ratings & Reviews
Bryce helped me buy my first condo, and even though my price range was probably lower than most clients, I felt I got the attention I needed. Ended up landing a condo in the super competitive Oakland market, and I owe it to Bryce for helping me and advising me through the process; for example he told me to write a letter to the homeowner and that ended up being the difference between me and the other person with an equal offer. I recommend Bryce to anyone serious about buying a home.
We contacted Bryce through Zillow a few years back when first looking for a home in the Walnut Creek/Pleasant Hill area. We couldn't find anything that worked for us at the time, but when we reached out to Bryce again recently to give it another try, he remembered us immediately. Bryce is always very responsive and on the very few occasions he didn't know an answer to one of our questions he was always able to find the answer within a few hours at most. He was patient with us as well in that regard, since we hadn't purchased a home previously, and had many questions to ask! I would recommend Bryce as an agent for anyone looking to buy in the East bay area. We can't speak for his knowledge of markets outside of the Walnut Creek/Pleasant Hill/Concord areas, but he was very helpful for we needed!
I have worked with Bryce in 3 separate real estate transactions and every one of them was seamless and easy because of Bryce! He helped me buy my first condo and then a few years later he helped me sell it at a great profit and then buy a house. Bryce always knew what needed to be done to close the deal and I always took his advice and was very satisfied. He is a straight-shooter, very down to earth, flexible, and easy to work with. He also recommended a mortgage broker who we were very pleased with and used for both our properties. If we ever decide to move I am definitely calling Bryce again!
Bryce went beyond expectations while helping a first-time buyer look for houses. He was patient and honest while looking at properties that ranged from fixer-uppers, to condos, to single family homes. His knowledge about what it takes to get a house move-in ready and his ability to visualize the potential of a foreclosure helped make my goals realistic about what I was able to afford. Eventually, I fell in love with a house that was slightly out of my price-range and Bryce's great negotiation skills and suggestions got the house to a price that was right on the money (pun intended). Through a 50-day escrow, Bryce worked closely with me and my loan officer to walk me through the process and provided support throughout the numerous ups and downs. What could have been an extremely overwhelming process was made better by Bryce's constant patience and humor. He is knowledgable about the entire East Bay and I would recommend him to anybody looking to buy or sell their home.
am a first time home buyer. My girlfriend and I were very unfamiliar with the home buying process. Bryce came out and showed us a home before we had a real estate agent and he was very polite, personable, and knowledgeable. The most important thing we found about Bryce was that while we was frank about the market conditions (lots of competition for buyers), he would not push you to make an offer that you weren't comfortable with.
We must have seen 15-20 houses with Bryce and he was always quick to respond, he would let us pick homes that we wanted to see and he also would bring information for listings for other homes. If we changed our minds about seeing other homes, he was always upbeat and would recognize the respective concerns or issues we had with those houses.
Bryce made the buying process easy and he was always able to be reached easily through phone or email. He simply was the best.
Bryce represented me as both a buyer and a seller and he made the process very smooth. Bryce is very knowledgeable about the current market and the area we were looking to buy our home in. He was always available whenever we had questions about anything and was very prompt in reaching out to us with any questions or concerns.
I would highly recommend using Bryce as your Realtor whether you are buying a home, selling a home, or both. He'll get the job done quickly and pain free so you can relax until it's time to sign your closing docs.
From the day I met Bryce he was knowledgeable and helpful. He really knows Pleasant Hill and is able to give great advice about neighborhoods, offers and anything else you need to know. Whenever I wanted to look at a house, he was there! He is responsive and professional. He is your guy!
Bryce has been our real estate agent both for buying (in 2009) and selling (October 2017) our home in Oakland. He is very professional, with the utmost integrity and interest in the needs of the customer. He is knowledgeable about the real estate market, about selling and marketing. He takes the time to listen, collect data, review all options, and makes sound recommendations. He is responsive to the needs of the sale. We gladly recommend Bryce as an agent.
If you are looking to buy/sell anywhere in the Oakland/Lafayette/Moraga/Orinda/Walnut Creek areas, Bryce Schumacher is your guy! He advised us perfectly with everything we needed to do to market our home for sale and was spot on with every piece of advice he gave us as we looked for our new home. In all cases, Bryce knew exactly what it would take. His deep knowledge of properties and the market is second to none. We couldn't be happier in our new home.
Bryce was the most helpful and knowledgeable realtor one could ever hope for! He guided us expertly through the entire maze of buying our first home with the calmness and efficiency that we lacked.
He answered every question we had (at any time of the day, night or weekend) and within three weeks of looking we got an offer accepted on our dream house. We would highly recommend Bryce for all of your real estate needs.
If you want someone who will go out of their way for you then use Bryce as your realtor. Multiple times Bryce worked us into his schedule for on the spot request to see properties. No delay, no questions, no problems. He always was truthful with us and has the connections to get the job done right. I highly recommend Bryce for all your selling and buying needs.
Bryce helped my family sell our house as well as purchase a new one in the middle of a pandemic. He made the process of listing and selling our house very smooth and safe as most of our communication was done via email. Bryce was responsive to all emails and answered any questions or concerns promptly. Thank you, Bryce!
I recommend Bryce as both a rental manager and a selling agent. His office managed my house in Rockridge for five years before we decided to sell the house As a manager, he kept the house rented at market rates and in good condition. As a selling agent, he helped recommend and coordinate many improvements to the house, and ultimately negotiated a selling price for well above asking in the midst of the March 2020 lock down of the Bay Area due to Covid 19.
I highly recommend his services. Bryce is easy to work with, knows the market, and goes the extra mile.
Working with Bryce was one of the best decisions I made when deciding to buy a home. Bryce is knowledgeable and a joy to work with. I attribute getting my home to him, he knew what I need to include in my offer to make me stand out. I will be recommending Bryce to all my friends!
I highly recommend Bryce. Seven years ago, he helped me buy my condo and the experience was so great that I called him when it was time to sell the condo and buy a house. He sent us great suggestions based on our criteria and did countless showings weekdays and weekends. Buying in this market was not easy, but his patient way of gently advising us on how to be just the right amount of aggressive in the market helped us get the house we wanted! The market analysis he provides helped us know the right offer to make and the right price tag to put on the condo. His photographer did excellent work and made my condo look stunning! Thank you very much to the Schumacher team for all of your hard work, persistence, and patience.
This recommendation is for the best realtor we have ever worked with beyond a doubt. My wife and I have bought and sold a total of 8 homes over the years, and worked with as many realtors, never as completely satisfied as we were with Mr. Bryce Schumacher. Bryce has the kind and loving nature you find in a close friend, yet all business when needed. Bryce has endless energy, always smiling, very attentive with a wealth of real estate knowledge. these and many other attributes make Mr Schumacher our #1 choice for best realtor of all time!
sincerely,
Kevin and Marta Richardson
Bryce was beyond my expectation. He exceeded in all aspects from negotiation skills, winning personality, to integrity. We started looking at homes casually for one year but the first offer we made we got our dream house mainly due to Bryce’s experience and knowledge about the real estate market. He knew how to make our offer competitive and stood out amongst many other offers. Our transaction was seamless and most important is that Bryce has always been transparent from the very beginning. I couldn’t be happier and we will for sure use Bryce in the future for any of our real estate needs. Thank you again for all your hard work and determination!
Bryce did an amazing job with the sale of our home and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone with real estate needs. Bryce went beyond the normal call of duty for a real estate agent and helped up sell our home from our out of state location. Any normal challenges that people come across with selling were truly eased for us with Bryce’s assistance. With the professionals that Bryce has at it fingertips, we were able to address any issues that came up and took care of them quickly. His goal was for us to worry less about the sale and to keep moving forward with our plans. We could not have done it without him, and definitely would have been in a different situation had we not worked with Bryce!
ryce was the Real Estate Agent who represented my wife and me in the purchase of a single-family residence in East Bay. And when the time comes to selling our new property and purchasing another, we will insist that Bryce represent us.
Bryce lives locally and works locally and knows the area he represents extremely well. I feel this is essential for an agent and it paid dividends in our home purchase. In that regard, Bryce often met us on very short notice to view a property. Bryce responded quickly to emails and text messages with value and insight. And as Bryce now knows, I can be prolific with my questions. Bryce never missed a beat.
The home purchasing process can get a bit complicated at times. However, Bryce know the process well, is able to communicate the big picture, and is able synch it with the more detailed nuances.
And above all, Bryce operates with a keen sense of efficiency. This kept the process always moving forward and at an even pace. Bryce is great!
Bryce was informative and helpful in getting my house ready for sale. He was able to connect me with contractors that got my house looking perfect for the sale! He was available for questions and tours when needed. Great family man with wonderful values.
When faced with the realization that I purchased property in Martinez, CA, in the Fall 2022, that turned out to be a big mistake and terrible disappointment for several reasons; I reached out to a family member who connected me with her real estate agent in Minnesota. Who in turn referred me to Bryce Schumacher with TSG/Compass in Pleasant Hill, CA. Bryce assisted me with a new home search throughout the East Bay Area until I was ready to make an offer on another home. He was very accommodating to my schedule in order to tour properties for sale.
Despite the obstacles that surfaced with the sale of the Martinez property, Bryce was extremely patience, understanding, forthcoming with his experience and knowledge of the challenging California real estate market. Bryce was diligent in marketing my property for sale until a potential buyer made an acceptable offer.
I highly recommend Bryce Schumacher and his team for the demonstration of integrity and good quality customer service!
Bryce sold my home in Pleasant Hill, CA in April 2023- Bryce and the Compass team was amazing throughout the entire process.
His knowledge of the area as well as guiding us through staging and sales negotiation was top notch.
We got a terrific price and are very pleased
Highly recommend this team!
Bryce worked really hard to get my house ready to sell. He was honest about what needed to be done and what could be left as is. His knowledge and experience were priceless. I felt like I was in good hands through the entire process.
