About Grant Inaba

Team Lead & Top Producing Agent (11 years experience) Specialties Buyer's agent Listing agent Relocation Landlord Transitioning from a learner to a practitioner, to a master has interesting phases because in my case I feel like I am always living all three phases. I have begun to understand that the experiences which you gain from these is both patient and quick. Still, having invested my own time in real estate I find it is not someone's years of experience, it is the minutes by which they live real estate. Go ahead and ask any agent how many minutes they invest in real estate a day. I counted mine and on the average I spend 650 minutes a day working in real estate. To my clients this means the possibility of avoiding 650 mistakes that can happen every minute in this market and 650 opportunities to move forward in life. To me it means 650 moments to create an opportunity where one did not exist and 650 opportunities to create a unique moment. For me to create an opportunity of a lifetime that a person can retell the story in a life changing way is what I work towards. In the mid-2000's I felt the market was growing disproportionately. It felt to me like a secret discovery and I wanted to take advantage of it. I had no idea how to buy a house, so I began to take classes in real estate at the local community college across the street from my rented apartment. I already had a career in the library field so I was taking night classes, two per semester. I found learning something new to be invigorating. I was intrigued when I found out that after only a few classes I could take the salespersons license exam, so I began studying for it without any intention to use it. I am a bit of a certification nut and like collecting letters after my name. It was about this time that I started my personal home search. Upon graduation, I had taken every class I could in real estate and still had the bug to learn more. It was a natural decision for me to begin working in the field, especially considering at about that time the library field started to experience a downturn. I finally bought my house and also got a job at Redfin. After a couple learning years with them and having enjoyed the tech way to do real estate, I sought a brokerage with the same philosophy but that would allow me the freedom and autonomy to do business the way I thought most efficient and that would fit my personal style best. It is here at the Good Real Estate Team in the East Bay that we use the best technology tools and work as a team to serve our clients quickly and courteously. We work together instead of competing for each other's' clients. And because we are an aggressive, hard-working, cooperating team we create results. These results, in the form of closings, give us the information and hard data we need to create more successful closes in the future. Agents in the industry recognize that we are reliable and can get the job done and they, in turn, appreciate working with us. When a regular solo traditional agent closes a certain amount in their market, we close two to three times more. Our market is so competitive that clients need the most expertise possible at their side. And why would you want anything less when it's the biggest purchase you will ever make? People I talk with may think I am pulling their leg when I tell them how great I think our team is, but I hope they know we are trying to do our best by them. It is a place that fits perfectly the way I want to do business and the business philosophy I hold.

It is with genuine pleasure and profound respect that we share our experience working with Esteban Sandoval during our recent home purchase. Choosing Esteban as our realtor was a decision we are immensely grateful for; his professionalism and depth of knowledge transformed what could have been a stressful process into a smooth and dignified transaction. From our initial consultation to the moment we received our keys, Esteban exhibited an unwavering commitment to our needs. His communication was consistently clear, prompt, and, above all, respectful, ensuring we felt heard and valued at every turn. We were particularly impressed by his insightful guidance and meticulous attention to detail, which navigated us expertly through a complex market. Esteban Sandoval is more than just a real estate agent; he is a trusted advisor who approaches his work with integrity and a truly respectful demeanor. For anyone seeking a home buying experience that is both successful and conducted with the highest level of professionalism and care, we wholeheartedly recommend Esteban. He has earned our strongest endorsement.

After the first house we saw, Shaha took the time to sit down with us and truly understand our budget, our priorities, and our long-term goals as a family. She translated everything we shared into action. Shaha built curated tour lists that were well planned and tailored to a lot of what we were looking for. We always felt like she respected our time and understood our preferences perfectly. She didnt push anything that didnt fit. She showed us properties that aligned with every key requirement we had, and ultimately she was the one who led us to a home that checked every box. Her communication was on point all the time. She was consistently responsive and would take extra time to explain anything which was unfamiliar to us. There were nights where she was still emailing us late into the evening, making sure documents were in motion and that our closing timeline stayed on track. She went above and beyond to ensure we got the home that we wanted. Because of her professionalism, dedication, and genuine care for us, we are now stepping into a home we absolutely love. We are beyond grateful for everything she did for us and couldnt recommend her more highly qualified realtor.

Working with Esteban was absolutely an exceptional experience. His communication was prompt, clear, and consistent throughout the entire process. I truly felt he was invested in achieving the best outcome for me , he acted as a true partner and always made me feel like he had my back. Even going out of his way in matters that he didn't need to.!!! That says a lot about the man. This level is top-notch service combined with them being a truly stupendous person makes them an easy choice for a five-star rave review and future recommendations indeed. Best Regards Luis
