Bay Area cash sale, priced city by city.
San Francisco isn't Oakland and Oakland isn't Antioch. Transfer taxes, rent control rules, tenant protections, ADU rules — each city is its own animal. A blanket "we buy houses" operation that prices SF the same way it prices Antioch is going to mishandle your deal. We price each city the way it deserves.
Why a city-by-city buyer matters
The Bay is nine markets in a trench coat.
San Francisco transfer taxes hit 6% over $25M and the city has its own rent ordinance. Oakland's Just Cause rules are different from Berkeley's, which are different from Hayward's. San Jose has citywide rent control on multifamily. Concord has city-specific point-of-sale inspections. A Bay Area cash sale that doesn't account for the city you're in is a sale that's going to surprise you.
We've worked with title companies in each county — SF, Alameda, Contra Costa, Santa Clara — for years. We've handled TIC dissolutions in the city, tenant-occupied duplexes in West Oakland, fire-damaged ranchers in the East Bay, and probate sales out of Santa Clara County Superior Court. Our capital supports purchases up to $3M all-cash.

Closings around the Bay
SF transfer-tax math, East Bay tenants, South Bay heirs — same straight closings.
"Two co-owners on a Sunset TIC, neither of us wanted to be there anymore. Redwood handled the share buyouts through one escrow and we both walked away clean. Their attorney did most of the heavy lifting."
"Just Cause makes a regular listing complicated when you've got long-term tenants you don't want to displace. They kept the tenants in place, took over both units, and got me out of the landlord seat in 21 days."
"My uncle's house was in probate in Santa Clara County. I'm in Florida. Redwood coordinated everything with his attorney, attended the confirmation hearing, and wired the proceeds the next day."
