We’re incredibly honored to be recognized as Five Star Professional Award recipients for the 14th consecutive year.

Out of thousands of real estate professionals, fewer than 1% are selected each year, making this recognition especially meaningful. The award is based on client satisfaction, industry recommendations, and a consistent commitment to delivering exceptional service.

At the Brydon & Ives Team, client satisfaction has always been one of our most important measures of success. Our goal has never been simply to help clients buy or sell a home. It’s to provide an experience that is thoughtful, strategic, personal, and worthy of their trust and referrals.

To our wonderful clients, friends, and referral partners, thank you for allowing us to be part of so many important milestones. Your trust means the world to us and we’re truly grateful for every opportunity to serve this incredible community.

Here’s to continuing to raise the bar...one client at a time. ❤️

🍷 Big news for Lafayette w**e lovers!
After nearly 30 years, W**e Thieves is under new ownership! Orinda residents Daniel and Gennie Gorback, longtime W**e Thieves regulars themselves, are taking the reins and keeping everything locals have loved about the shop alive, including an incredible selection of hard-to-find w**es at approachable $20–$25 price points.

But there’s a fun new vision in store...
Daniel and Gennie are turning W**e Thieves into even more of a community gathering spot, with live music, food, weekly w**e flights, and plenty of reasons to stop by and stay awhile.

🍷 Thirsty Thursdays | 5–7 PM
Live music + food out on the back patio

🍷 Saturday Pours | 12–6 PM
A different curated w**e flight every week
4 tastings for just $15

🍺 And for the non-w**e drinkers... there’s b**r on tap too!

We love seeing a longtime Lafayette favorite enter such an exciting new chapter, especially with local owners who already know and love what makes W**e Thieves so special.

Stop by, grab a glass and raise a toast to Daniel & Gennie! 🥂

One of our favorite Lamorinda summer traditions is back! ☀️🎶

There is just something special about Thursday nights...live music, kids dancing barefoot in the grass, neighbors catching up, picnic blankets spread across the lawn, and that unmistakable small-town summer feeling. 💛

Whether you’re heading to the Moraga Summer Concert Series at Moraga Commons or enjoying Orinda Thursday Nights with its rotating lineup of live bands and family-friendly movie nights at Orinda Community Park, there are so many fun ways to enjoy summer close to home.

Bring your lawn chairs, a blanket, or pack a picnic, or grab dinner from the local food trucks, a scoop from Loard’s Ice Cream, and enjoy a relaxing evening with family and friends.

SOLD in 1 Day | 2 Offers | 14% Over Ask

Congratulations to our wonderful sellers on the sale of their beautiful Burton Valley home! With just 1 day on the market, 2 offers, and a sale price 14% over asking ($1,060/sf), this was an incredible result.

Our clients had already purchased their next home and needed to fast track the selling process. They trusted our guidance every step of the way, from prioritizing the right pre-market improvements to preparing the home for maximum buyer appeal.

Thanks to an amazing collaboration with our trusted contractors, vendors, landscapers, and stagers, we transformed the property and brought it to market in under 4 weeks. The payoff? Multiple offers within hours of going live and an outstanding outcome for our clients.

The right preparation, strategic pricing, expert marketing, and a fantastic team make all the difference. We’re so grateful to our clients for putting their trust in us and thrilled to have helped them achieve such an exceptional result.

🏡 Thinking about making a move? We’d love to help you create a strategy that maximizes your home’s value.

20 years. Countless memories. Endless gratitude. 💙

Last night was incredibly special. Celebrating two decades of partnership, friendship, and doing what we love alongside so many amazing clients, friends, family members, and colleagues filled our hearts more than we can express.

What started as a business partnership 20 years ago grew into something far greater...a shared passion for helping people through some of life’s biggest moments, raising our families in this community and building relationships that mean the world to us.

To everyone who has trusted us, supported us, referred us, cheered us on, and celebrated alongside us over the years...thank you. Your loyalty and friendships are something we never take for granted.

We feel incredibly lucky to do what we love in a community we love, surrounded by such wonderful people.

And a special thank you to Headlands Brewing Lafayette for hosting such a wonderful evening and helping make the celebration so memorable. 🍻

Here’s to 20 years of partnership and to all of the relationships and memories still ahead. 🥂

With gratitude,
Lisa & Kristi
