Strategic Services for Home Buyers & Sellers
For Sellers (Total Home Transformation): We know exactly what Bay Area buyers are looking for. Utilizing Compass Concierge alongside our preferred local contractors and stagers, we guide you through your entire property preparation from start to finish. We strategically position and price your home to stand out on the Peninsula, command top dollar, and minimize days on market.
For Buyers (The Inside Track): In a housing market as competitive as San Mateo County, the best properties often sell off-market. We leverage our deep neighborhood networks and Compass Private Exclusives to find you hidden inventory, helping you expertly execute pre-emptive negotiation strategies to secure your home before it ever hits the public MLS.
Trusts, Probate, & Downsizing: Moving on from a long-held family home can be complicated. We bring a lot of empathy—and decades of experience—to sensitive family real estate transitions. We coordinate seamlessly with trustees, families, and Bay Area estate attorneys to handle everything from asset liquidation to final staging and sale.

Our historical transaction data and deep market expertise cover the premier communities of the San Francisco Bay Area, focusing heavily on:
San Mateo County (The Peninsula): Burlingame, Hillsborough, San Mateo, San Carlos, Belmont, Foster City, Redwood City, Menlo Park, Woodside, and Atherton.
The East Bay & Regional Bridges: Key relocation and cross-bay markets connecting Peninsula buyers to premier East Bay neighborhoods, including Orinda, Lafayette, Moraga, Berkeley, and Oakland.

Sold a Single Family home in Hillsborough, CA.
"Diane and Patty Dwyer were outstanding partners in preparing, pricing, marketing and negotiating the sale of our 90-year-old family home. Their local knowledge, research, and extensive experience were a significant differentiator among other local real estate groups. The engagement was complicated with multiple fractional owners and an out-of-state trustee. They handled every step with honest guidance, (incredible) patience and professionalism. I highly recommend them to handle your acquisition or sale."

Sold a Single Family home in 2024 in Hillsborough, CA.
"Dealing with Diane and Patty was a pleasure. They delivered on so many levels that selling my home, though very complex, was actually relatively easy. The vast number of transaction details required were more than I had ever anticipated; however, Diane walked me through each in a very expeditious manner. Meanwhile, “behind the scenes” the Dwyer team cleared out all of the many things I had “just left” and then brought in teams to clean all rooms, resurface the floors, and prepare the house to be shown. Within a few days they had a buyer with a very clean offer and we closed in record time. Thank you for a job well done!"

Sold a home in 2024.
"The Patty Dwyer Group at Compass Realty in Burlingame did a fantastic job preparing, marketing, and selling my elderly mother’s Hillsborough home. We cannot recommend them highly enough! The Patty Dwyer Group operates as a team, though Patty and Diane Dwyer are engaged in every detail of every element of the Group’s work. Their mantra is, “We all push each other hard to get the best result we can.” And they got a great result! As a result of their great work, the bottom line sales price exceeded expectations. We interviewed several experienced and well-known local realtors, before choosing the Patty Dwyer Group. All the realtors estimated a sales price that was remarkably similar and we used that as the listing price. But because of Patty and Diane’s preparation and marketing work, we received five written offers and sold the property for more than ten percent above asking. Finally, Patty and Diane were very pleasant to work with. They were always gracious and respectful of our wishes. One or both of them were always available to take a phone call or respond to a text message. Communication was excellent. It was always service with a smile. My mother and I recommend them very highly and without reservation. You won’t find a better real estate team in the area."

Sold a Single Family home in 2018 in San Mateo Park, San Mateo, CA.
"The Patty Dwyer Group did an awesome job in selling my home. I was given a very short window to get my home on the market any Patty and her team pulled several rabbits out of a hat, including reconciling a discrepancy of square footage with the county records...net result was getting an additional $200k in value to my home. Her team was very caring and responsive, it was like I had a team of big sisters taking care of me from beginning to end. I couldn’t be more pleased. *** I JUST HAVE TO ADD TO MY REVIEW HERE! Patty's group gave me a binder with all of my documents including details of all of my expenses in selling my house down to the handyman bill. I'm doing my taxes right now and having this well-organized information is making my life so much easier and maximizing my profit from house."
