Alamo is an affluent unincorporated community in Contra Costa County known for its spacious estates, scenic surroundings, and relaxed suburban lifestyle.

VINCENT’S CLIENT
TESTIMONIALS
Vincent Ergas was exactly the person we needed to get the job done! He is an excellent communicator. We were able to express our needs and wants when it came to selling the home, and he delivered. He facilitated the preparation of the home through project management. We were very impressed with the attention to detail when it came to the actual website listing. He showed the house promptly and often. Within one week, he had multiple offers and negotiated a sale price 10% over the list price. Most importantly, working with Vincent was fun!
SELLER
Moving during a pandemic already packs a bunch of uncertainty and uncharted territory. Having Vince to bounce ideas off of, express our concerns and be vulnerable about the whole buying and selling process eased our fears. Vince was so responsive to questions and understood that moving during a time like this is not easy. He made our experience exciting and fun. I am so happy with our home and looking forward to a new future. Thank you Vince for being a stellar agent.
SELLER & BUYER
Vince was very helpful throughout the selling process of our condo. This was our first time selling property and Vince walked us through every step, leaving no stone unturned. Not only was he easy to work, he went above and beyond to answer our questions. If you are looking for a stylized touch, I would recommend working with Vince- we will definitely work with him again.
SELLER
TEAM’S CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Jennifer & Andrew have been great to work with - personally and professionally - in both the sale of our old house and purchase of our new one. Without getting into detail, our situation was quite complex on the purchase side - so much so that my wife and I agreed that it required more expertise than could be fairly expected of any typical realtor or broker. The Oldhams provided that expertise for us, and we've already referred another couple to them. 5 stars!
BUYER AND SELLER
Jennifer and Andrew were wonderful to work with, starting with pricing and sales strategy right up to negotiations and closing. Highly recommended. They both are seasoned professionals able to manage the entire sales process, and having a lawyer on the team provides additional clarity for occasional complexities.
SELLER
Jen and Andrew have beyond exceeded our expectations. They were patient with us through a long search process, provided a consultative approach along the way, set realistic expectations without letting us overpay and we're never just here to sell us any house. When it came time to sell our home the team of people they work with to prep, the marketing support and the frequency of updates keeping us in the loop has once again been over the top. We could not be happier to be working with them, will 100% be referring our friends and colleagues and will without question use them again in the future.

MARKETING YOUR HOME
At The Oldham Group, we prioritize modern marketing by employing a comprehensive strategy for your property's digital promotion.
Before starting marketing efforts, we identify the target buyer persona, such as a Silicon Valley engineer with a $3M net worth who enjoys mountain biking and Comic-Con. We then build anticipation by marketing to our network of over 28 million agents. Once the listing is live, we focus on attracting that specific buyer persona to your property. This process may include...
Property Website - This includes photos, videos, virtual tours, listing details, and has the ability to capture contact information from interested home buyers
Email Marketing - We will target the listing area through email campaigns. These emails are sent for each status change on your listing and are full of information for potential buyers. When sending these emails, we create a list of potential leads in the area through a mix of home buyers in our team database as well as local homeowner leads from a third party real estate farming tool.
DigitalAds: We run digital ads on Facebook, Instagram, and Google Ads to drive traffic to the property website. These ads remain active for the duration of the listing and are updated to reflect any status changes, such as "Coming Soon," "Just Listed," and "Price Reduction."
Videos: We partner with top media vendors in Northern California to produce high-quality photography and engaging videos that promote your home across social media, Zillow Showcase, and other online platforms.
Print Collateral: We create high-quality printed materials—including professionally designed flyers, neighborhood postcards, and, for select luxury listings, elegant property booklets—to elevate the in-person marketing experience. These pieces are distributed at open houses, broker tours, and throughout the surrounding community to generate local awareness and reinforce the home’s value. Each item is thoughtfully branded, visually compelling, and updated as needed to reflect milestones such as “Coming Soon,” “Just Listed,” or “Price Improvement,” ensuring a cohesive and polished presentation at every stage of the listing.
Assessing Our Strategy and Monitoring the Market
Using proprietary tools such as Collections and Insights, we keep you informed of market conditions and traffic to your property.
Collections Insights
Collections allows us to have a collaborative conversation on your home-selling process with instant updates on comparable listings and access to insider knowledge previously only available to the agent community.
Insights is a detailed, custom dashboard that allows us to assess the impact of our online marketing campaigns in real time. By capturing this data, we are able to target our further ads to buyers most interested in your home.
Engaging Open Houses
Whether it's in person or a dynamic virtual tour, open houses are one of the most important ways buyers connect with your home.
