A broker has completed additional licensing beyond a salesperson license, but what matters most is experience and results in your specific market. Tim Fiebig is licensed as a California real estate Broker (DRE #00657474) and works as a Broker-Associate with eXp Realty of California. His 40+ years and 1,000+ Castro Valley sales reflect far more about the level of service than a title alone.

Tim chose to leave brokerage ownership to work directly with clients again. He is not a name on a sign while an assistant handles your deal. Tim personally walks every transaction from first call to closing, and he brings a background most teams cannot match: a former internationally ranked #1 RE/MAX Broker/Owner who ran a 100+ agent brokerage averaging about 150 home sales per month.

Yes, listing homes is where Tim has built his reputation: 1,000+ homes sold in Castro Valley alone. He focuses on sellers, with a full toolkit that includes strategic pricing, professional photography and video, staging guidance, targeted digital and social advertising, agent and buyer outreach, and pre-market exposure.

It depends on the return. Tim evaluates every potential improvement against what buyers in your neighborhood actually pay for. Sometimes he recommends improvements before going to market; other times he advises against spending money where the return isn't there. Every recommendation is made with your bottom line in mind, not a contractor's.

In many cases, yes. Sellers can use proceeds from the sale to settle work performed as part of closing, subject to lender, escrow, and title requirements. Talk to your real estate agent and your loan officer about how to structure it. Tim is happy to walk you through how this works in a normal Castro Valley transaction.

Each listing gets strategic pricing, professional photography and video, staging and property preparation, targeted digital and social media advertising, extensive agent and buyer outreach, pre-market exposure, and creative marketing designed specifically for that property. As a Certified AI Broker, Tim also uses modern technology and AI tools to keep listings in front of the right buyers.
